    The stuff he says to those dumbasses paying to watch him speak is so ridiculous. Blow hard spurting nonsense to try and deflect from his criminal acts. Always the token paid black guy in the front too.

    When your allegiance is to a man, and not the country, you aren't a real Patriot.

    If there's one thing we all remember about George HW Bush, it was how often he frequented public bowling alleys and Chinese restaurants.

    It only makes sense that having been part of the CIA he was used to handling classified documents and would have naturally brought them with him to one of his regular public bowling outings.

    If any one event could personify George HW Bush, it would be a bowling trip and eating Chinese food there. That's just so George.

    So he used the documents to combine the bowling alley and the Chinese restaurant? Or did he combine all the normally top secret documents into one super-double-dog top secret mega document? Why for any of it?

    I'm genuinely having trouble following what's going on with GWHB and why it's happening in Trump's story.

    On one hand, having chinese food available at the bowling alley sounds delightful, on the other hand borrowing an alley ball sounds like a bad idea.

    Honestly, the world would be so much better off without Donald Trump in it.

    You don't remember the time H.W. bowled a 300 with an egg roll in one hand?

    I'll never forget. Just George being George. That's the way life is in Kennebunkport.

    Did you see the reaction of the people behind him? It genuinely looked like a group of people not buying any of it.

    His playbook going back to when he first ran, plant doubt and lie so when he`s caught he can say "see, told ya".....same thing when he said the only way he would lose is to have it stolen and we see what's happened there.

    a lot of them weren’t even paying attention

    traveling and buying tickets to hear some lunatic rant and rave for hours is something I’ll never understand, but that’s what people do when they’re in a cult

    He is turning into late stage Lenny Bruce where his shows are him reading a list of grievances. I think the people are bored. You can rile up the populace with "they took our jerbs". "The government is bad because they won't let me keep stolen documents" isn't very relatable.

    Ah, so this is him admitting it. Note how his lawyers won't say in front of the special master whether or not they believe evidence was planted because they know it's a lie.

    All of this - the lies about the documents, the election, etc. - are so infuriating because Trump won't say them in court where lying has consequences. Instead he spews this nonsense on stage and Newsmax where his cult doesn't hear anything else.

    Ha. What’s sad is his sheep will eat this up when it’s leaked that this is exactly what he had.

    Christina Bobb, the attorney who signed a letter certifying that all sensitive records in former President Donald Trump's possession had been returned to the government, spoke to federal investigators Friday and named two other Trump attorneys involved with the case, according to three sources familiar with the matter.

    The certification statement, signed June 3 by Bobb, indicated that Trump was in compliance with a May grand jury subpoena and no longer had possession of a host of documents with classification markings at his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida, according to the three sources who do not want to comment publicly because of the sensitive nature of the sprawling federal investigation.


    Their accounts correspond with federal court records, though the Justice Department did not name her as the attorney who signed the statement, or identify any others involved, in its filings.

    After Justice Department officials were given the statement, the FBI subsequently determined the substance of the certification was untrue and, on Aug. 8, agents executed a search warrant and seized more 103 more records with classification markings, court documents show.

    Bobb, who was Trump’s custodian of record at the time, did not draft the statement, according to the three sources who do not want to comment publicly because of the sensitive nature of the sprawling federal investigation.

    Instead, Trump’s lead lawyer in the case at the time, Evan Corcoran, drafted it and told her to sign it, Bobb told investigators according to the sources. Bobb also spoke to investigators about Trump legal adviser Boris Epshteyn, who she said did not help draft the statement but was minimally involved in discussions about the records, according to the sources.

    Epshteyn’s cellphone was seized last month by the FBI, according to a New York Times report, citing sources familiar with the matter. Two sources confirmed to NBC News that his phone was seized.

    Bobb did not return messages seeking comment, nor did Corcoran. The Justice Department did not comment.

    Before Bobb signed the document, she insisted it be rewritten with a disclaimer that said she was certifying Trump had no more records “based upon the information that has been provided to me,” the sources said of what she told investigators. Bobb identified the person who gave her that “information” as Corcoran, the sources said.

    “She had to insist on that disclaimer twice before she signed it,” said one source who spoke with Bobb about what she told investigators.

    The source said she spoke freely without an immunity deal.

    “She is not criminally liable," the source said. "She is not going to be charged. She is not pointing fingers. She is simply a witness for the truth.”
