Dale fact-checks Trump's claims after FBI search
If you still support Trump who keeps telling lies to everyone, including his own supporters thus making fools of them, then you are in serious need of professional mental health care.

Former Top CIA Official On The ‘Top Secret’ Documents Found At Mar-a-Lago
Forgetaboutit! Trump gave high-security clearances to people unqualified to have them, which means that we have no idea what was compromised, where, or when. Our entire intelligence sector will have to be cleaned up somehow.

Consider; how would you like to work in a security post overseas where there's danger all around, and knowing that the documents you create that could cost you your life were being mishandled with abandon? I doubt you'd feel much confidence in the job, then too, consider the informants you would be hoping to rely on, do you think they'll be more forthcoming when they learn how carelessly American security is handled?
Donald Trump's Overflowing Bucket Of Legal Woes | Ayman
Until it can be figured out what kind of damage might have been done by this breach of security protocols the entire intelligence sector has to be judged untrustworthy and therefore dangerously compromised. What Trump has done is no small thing because people may have to be moved for their safety, programs judged to be possibly compromised will have to be shuttered all of which will happen at the cost of possibly millions of dollars not to mention the possibility that thousands of lives will need to be protected at home and especially overseas. Trump has done the nation massive damage that will have to be either quickly assessed or triaged.

Trump responds to AG Garland’s move to unseal search warrant
Why in the world would anyone ask Alberto Gonzales anything after what he -- and the administration he was part of -- did? He ruled that waterboarding was merely legal "enhanced interrogation" knowing full well that our Constitution prohibits suspects from being forced to bear witness against themselves. Mr. Gonzales has no understanding of how our Constitutional law is designed or how it works or it would never have crossed his mind that torture or other means to force anyone to bear witness against themselves is something no American legal authority should ever advocate for use against anyone, foreign or domestic. I SUSPECT CNN WOULD BRING IN HITLER TO EXPLAIN PUTIN'S INVASION OF UKRAINE. NOT GOOD!

Watch Morning Joe Highlights: August 11 | MSNBC
Remember when Valerie Plame was outed? Dozens of agents and informant/cooperators who were part of her network of spies trying to keep track of nuclear material around the world had to be ordered or helped to run for their very lives utterly destroying the CIA's capabilities to keep track of dangerous nuclear material. Trump was very cozy with dictators Like Putin, Xi, the Saudis' and Kim among others made those documents in his hands an intolerably dangerous situation.
Concerns About Classified Documents At Mar-A-Lago Include ‘Spills And Sp...
There were concerns because he held onto these documents for 19 months while negotiating/talking to the government and because of the level of classifications the government was wise to practically mount a panicked effort to retrieve these documents when access to them was unknown.
What led to the FBI search warrant at Mar-a-Lago?
As usual, Republicans are telling lies about anything adverse to Trump and/or the Party. They have no integrity and no one should vote for them, except the few who show some understanding that their job is not to protect themselves or hold onto their offices, their job is to improve and defend the nation and honor the Constitution.
Trump's ex-Chief of Staff reacts to report about informant tipping off FBI
They didn't just swoop in, there were negotiations/talks going on for months, and when someone told them about documents that Trump had and had not even acknowledged less turned over, with his record of handling documents hey what do you expect them to do with documents that could potentially inform foreign adversaries of CIA secret programs and agents whose lives would then be in jeopardy? Trump was very cavalier about America's secrets and oblivious of the dangers they represented to anyone other than himself.

If we know anything about Trump it's that any "negotiations" would have been characterized by a recalcitrant Trump full of bluster threats and lies while stalling and guessing that his opponents aren't serious and/or are powerless and bluffing. DOJ finally, at long last brought the charade to an end thank heavens. It's about time Trump was treated as the highly incredible person he has historically been shown to be. If Trump were to tell you the sun was up at 12noon, you are advised to go to a window and check!

Trump's Lawyer Should Advise Him He's 'Looking At Jail Time' Says Katyal
In effect, we're being told that a man, who after being cctv'd in a bank with a gun and the teller handing over cash, is later arrested with the marked bills from the bank and marker dye from the anti-theft device, the case is too complicated to be able to say with any confidence that the bank robber will be convicted at trial because; we need to know what he intended to do with the money, what he had for breakfast and how he was raised by his parents and how he interacted with his family members and schoolmates among other things. Look, Trump is known for destroying documents and resisting releasing them to official inqiireries, as well as having no intentions of honoring official records acts and even outrageously committing crimes by using the phones of others in order to evade his records reporting responsibilities, and yet when caught in flagrant violation of laws his word -- the word of an accomplished liar who has told over 40,000 lies -- is taken as credible and his outrageously obvious crimes and obvious criminal intent is judged to be far too complex to be seen as what it appears to be. Please give us a break, we need better excuses than that.

Analysis: How FBI's raid on Mar-a-Lago could help Trump in 2024
I must be living in some sort of fugue state where I seem to distinctly remember people chanting "LOCK HER UP! LOCK HER UP!" over some violation of records-keeping laws by Hillary Clinton where Comey ruined her campaign by announcing that he was opening a new investigation of her violations that tanked her campaign despite the fact that there was no there there! Now Republicans are blithely unconcerned about presidential recordkeeping laws, or even national security laws. Is any of this true or am I simply losing my mind?
Top U.S. & World Headlines — August 9, 2022
"Might violate the official records act?"
Hey, why don't you consult one of your network's lawyers? The report says that the documents taken were of such a highly secret nature that they are even prevented from describing them in a list that would be made public. I doubt that anyone not in the Presidential office would have the right to possess such documents in an unsecured place, most especially by a former president who has a record of blatant violation of records laws at every level. My guess is there is nothing here to guess about! Trump has once again been caught in flagrant violation of the law as usual. Or am I mistaken about this?
This Morning’s Top Headlines – August 9
As you have probably heard by now there's a teacher shortage that is most dramatic in both Texas and Florida where their extreme right-wing governors have passed laws that interfere with both free speech and teaching. Their advocacies of book burning and the As you have probably seen "don't say gay" bills make it hard for a teacher to see themselves steering clear of politically driven prosecutions if they say the wrong thing or advocate for, as yet unknown, books and other teaching materials. I can't see how a teacher would feel comfortable teaching a class without a lawyer and a political scientist in the room to help him or her manage their lesson plans. Unfortunately, neither state pays a salary or wage high enough to cover the cost of such fare thus the only sane alternative is to move to a more rational state. Could I be wrong about this?

Hmmm... Florida and Texas, are two states where an ideologically driven executive and the legislature have made inroads into the classrooms by either book burning or "don't say gay", which places teachers at risk of sanctions. Clearly, these newly contrived risks make the teaching profession in these states a wee bit of unpalatable.

New book details conflicts between Trump and his generals
He must have realized that if he sent that letter Trump would replace him with someone loyal to himself and not to the U.S. Constitution. That would have made it easier for Trump to do even more damage than he already was planning to do. Trump believed that the military belonged to himself and not to the nation.
