The Justice Department is investigating if former President Donald Trump violated three federal laws involving the handling of national security information when he moved government records from the White House to Mar-a-Lago upon leaving office.

That's according to the right-wing news website Breitbart, which appeared to have obtained the warrant the FBI got to search Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence in south Florida.

Per the warrant, the feds are scrutinizing if Trump broke laws against gathering, transmitting, or losing defense information; the destruction, alteration, or falsification of records; and the concealment, removal, or mutilation of records.

The statute against gathering, transmitting, or losing defense information is a key facet of the Espionage Act. Earlier this afternoon, The Wall Street Journal reported that federal agents recovered 11 sets of classified information when they searched Mar-a-Lago on Monday.

According to the report, some of the classified records were marked top secret and meant to be stored in a special government facility because of their sensitivity. The Washington Post also reported late Thursday that the feds were specifically searching for classified nuclear documents when they executed the warrant at Mar-a-Lago this week.

Asha Rangappa, a former FBI agent and an editor at Just Security, wrote on Twitter that given the highly sensitive nature of the documents, it was "no wonder" the Justice Department pursued a warrant against Trump.

"DOJ, for its part, has frankly shown a willingness to risk national security, at least temporarily, in order to show some deference and courtesy (and benefit if the doubt) to a former POTUS," Rangappa wrote. "I think it's fair to say that if you or I tried this, we'd be arrested on Day 1."

FBI agents who searched former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home Monday removed 11 sets of classified documents, including some marked as top secret and meant to be only available in special government facilities, according to documents reviewed by The Wall Street Journal.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation agents took around 20 boxes of items, binders of photos, a handwritten note and the executive grant of clemency for Mr. Trump’s ally Roger Stone, a list of items removed from the property shows. Also included in the list was information about the “President of France,” according to the three-page list. The list is contained in a seven-page document that also includes the warrant to search the premises which was granted by a federal magistrate judge in Florida.

After former President Trump's Mar-a-Lago home in Florida was raided by FBI agents, Republicans are slamming the Biden administration and accusing the Department of Justice of "political weaponization," while Democrats are lauding the agency for holding Trump accountable for "wrongdoing."

Intersting how this same DOJ, FBI cannot "see" the second generation of political corruption represented by Nancy Pelosi. She used the Taiwan trip to distract from the scandal of her family making millions off insider trading, and her husbands second DUI.

And Bill Clinton's 26 trips to Epsteins Lolita Island are also invisible to the current DOJ/FBI.

Hunter Biden and Joe Biden just happening to team up on the sweet sale of some oil to a Chinese Company Hunter happens to sit on the board of is invisible to this DOJ/FBI too.

Their official oaths are meaningless.
They by their behavior, are below Banana Republic tier.

Democrats are stopped by a federal judge in their latest attempt to rig another election in their favor. Their attempt to bully competition off the ballot has failed
https://www.fltimes.com/news/nation/last-minute-effort-to-keep-green-party-off-nc-ballot-rejected-by-federal-appeals-court/article_90f78b38-136f-5b6e-86cc-184a85dce2b9.html

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A federal appeals court shot down Democrats’ last-ditch effort to keep the North Carolina Green Party off the November ballot, just one day before the state’s deadline for printing ballots.

It’s not the last word on the case in the courts, but any further potential ruling would likely come after ballots have already been printed with the Green Party’s candidates listed.

This means that the Green Party’s candidate for U.S. Senate, Matthew Hoh, will almost certainly join the contentious race between Democrat Cheri Beasley and Republican Ted Budd. A Libertarian, Shannon Bray, is also running.

Michael Trudeau, the Green candidate for state Senate district 16, would be included on ballots as well.

“As tomorrow is the deadline for finalizing ballot preparation we believe this decision by the 4th Circuit keeps Michael Trudeau and me on the ballot in November,” Hoh said in a statement after Thursday’s ruling by the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

Michael Trudeau, the Green candidate for state Senate district 16, would be included on ballots as well.

Y'all Qaeda back at it again.


Ohio State Highway Patrol officers reportedly exchanged fire Thursday morning with a man who tried to break into an FBI building in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Interstate I-71 North was shut down after the suspect drove away from the scene and reportedly started firing at police from a cornfield, NBC 15 News reported. FBI negotiators have also arrived on the scene.

FBI officials at the Cincinnati field office confirmed to WLWT that the situation began after the armed man showed up at the office and made potential threats.

The suspect was described as a white male over police scanner traffic, according to the News Journal.

“Blood splatter on his shorts. Right thigh area,” an officer in a police helicopter said over the radio. “Part of windshield shot out ... Suspect on knees, holding rifle.”

"Rifle down for the moment. He is on his knees,” the officer added about 15 minutes later.

https://news.yahoo.com/hillary-clinton-trump-fbi-raid-mar-a-lago-but-her-emails-hat-183731036.html

A day after the FBI conducted a search of former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate, Hillary Clinton responded on Tuesday with a tweet promoting merchandise emblazoned with the phrase “But Her Emails” — which has become the sardonic response among her supporters to Trump’s many scandals.

Clinton wrote that every hat or T-shirt sold benefits Onward Together, the political action committee she founded following her loss to Trump in the 2016 presidential election.

In a follow-up tweet, the former secretary of state said that the $30 hats quickly sold out but could be preordered for when they are back in stock.

On Monday night, Trump revealed that the FBI executed a search warrant at his private club and residence in south Florida.

According to multiple reports, Monday’s FBI search at Mar-a-Lago was related to an investigation into Trump’s potential mishandling of classified documents.

Trump made Clinton’s allegedly lax security in her email practices a centerpiece of his 2016 campaign, leading chants at his rallies to “lock her up” for the possible crime. But Trump’s own handling of government documents and intelligence has long been scrutinized.

Merrick Garland says DOJ filed motion to unseal Trump Mar-a-Lago warrant and property receipt

https://nypost.com/2022/08/11/feds-searched-for-nuclear-docs-at-trumps-home-report/

In his first public statement since federal agents searched former President Donald Trump's home at Mar-a-Lago earlier this week, Attorney General Merrick Garland on Thursday said that the Justice Department had filed in court a request that the search warrant and property receipt from the search be unsealed.
Garland also said he "personally approved the decision to seek a search warrant in this matter."
He noted that the department did not comment on the search on the day that it occurred. He pointed out that the search was confirmed by Trump that evening. He said that copies of the warrant and the warrant receipt were provided to the Trump lawyers who were on site during the search.

"The Department filed the motion to make public the warrant and receipt in light of the former president's public confirmation of the search, the surrounding circumstances and the substantial public interest in this matter," Garland said. "Faithful adherence to the rule of law is the bedrock principle of the Justice Department and of our democracy. Upholding the rule of law means applying the law evenly without fear or favor. Under my watch, that is precisely what the Justice Department is doing."

Google explained that the reason for the removal of the YouTube channel of the Russian blogger Goblin (Dmitry Puchkov) was a violation of the company's policy on hate speech, the Telegram channel "RBC" reported.

It is clarified that Google has removed content from Puchkov's channel, which, as the company noted, "denies, downplays or trivializes well-documented events of violence," including military actions in Ukraine. After that, the blogger was issued a warning (strike).

"This was the third strike of the channel in 90 days, therefore, in accordance with our three warnings policy, Dmitry Puchkov's channel was deleted," RBC quotes a message from Google.

The blogger himself informed about the removal of the channel on Thursday evening, August 4th, by posting a screenshot in his Telegram channel with a notification from the administration of the service, which stated a violation of the rules of the YouTube community.

Later, Puchkov said that "everyone who does not support the Ukrainian Nazis is being removed from the Internet site," and Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev promised to "take revenge" for what happened.

P.S. I also liked Dmitry Puchkov's YouTube channel, but it's worth admitting that besides the Nazis, he often makes fun of Western politicians and even Quentin Tarantino, calling them idiots. He received 3 strikes in 90 days because of a video about Stepan Bandera - just ass of most Ukrainian Nazis caught fire. Now he will perform on rutube and in "in contact (VK)". Maybe it's even better.

https://www.rferl.org/a/russia-medvedev-controversial-post-vk-hackers/31970322.html

A nationalist, pro-imperial post calling Georgia and Kazakhstan "artificial" creations briefly appeared on the VKontakte (VK) social network account of former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev before being taken down and attributed to hackers.

The post in question appeared on Medvedev's VK account, which has 2.3 million followers, on August 1 and was removed within about 10 minutes. Still, it was viewed about 2,000 times, according to multiple screenshots posted on social media, and also placed online by Russian TV personality Ksenia Sobchak. Her post quickly went viral with nearly 450,000 views in just a few hours.

Medvedev's aide, Oleg Osipov, on August 2 denied the ex-president had written the post, adding that it appeared on the account after it was hacked.

"VK's administration, and those who are supposed to do the job, will take care of those who hacked the account," Osipov wrote on Telegram.

Medvedev, who positioned himself as a liberal politician while he served as president from 2008 to 2012, has completely changed his image since Russia launched its invasion of Ukraine, publicly calling to fight against the West and what he called "nationalists" in Ukraine. He has also said Russia should seek to expand its borders.

The controversial text in the post on VK said that Georgia never existed as a country, while it calls Kazakhstan an artificial country and accuses the Central Asian nation's authorities of genocide against Russians. The territories of the two countries must be returned to Russia, it adds.

Moscow is "getting ready to undertake the next move to restore the borders of our homeland," it says, adding that the invasion of Ukraine in February will liberate the country and return "lands that were taken away from us."

Republican state officials and candidates are asking the Texas Supreme Court to take 23 Libertarian Party candidates off the November ballot. The GOP claims that they didn't collect enough petition signatures or pay the required filing fees. GOP candidates made the same move against 44 Libertarians in 2020, but the all-Republican state Supreme Court ruled that they'd waited too long, filing their challenge nearly a week after the candidates' eligibility deadline. This time, they filed their emergency Supreme Court petition on Monday, well in advance of the August 26th deadline.

A Japanese woman is giving up her child to the state and suing her sperm donor after he lied about his ethnicity and educational background.

The woman, in her thirties, who lives in Tokyo with her husband and first-born child, had sex with the sperm donor ten times due to conceive a second child, after it came to light her husband had a hereditary disease, according to the Tokyo Shimbun.

The donor told her he was Japanese, single, and a graduate of Kyoto University, one of the best universities in Japan.

The woman, who has remained nameless in Japanese news reports, got pregnant in June 2019.

However, during her pregnancy, she learned that the donor was, in fact, Chinese, went to a different university and was married.

>Ukraine accused Russian forces on Sunday of launching rockets at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, further ratcheting fears of an accident a day after the United Nation's watchdog warned that fighting at the occupied complex risked a "nuclear disaster."

>It was the second time in as many days that the plant, which is the largest of its kind in Europe, was hit. Ukraine and Russia have traded blame for both attacks.

>The rockets launched on Saturday night struck near a dry storage facility, where 174 casks with spent nuclear fuel are kept, according to Energoatom, Ukraine's state-run nuclear power company. Explosions blew out windows in parts of the plant and one worker was hospitalized with shrapnel wounds.

>"Apparently, they aimed specifically at the containers with processed fuel, which are stored outside next to the site of shelling," the company said in a statement on Telegram.

>Three radiation monitoring detectors were also damaged on Saturday, making "timely detection and response in case of aggravation of the radiation situation or leakage of radiation from spent nuclear fuel casks are currently impossible," Energoatom said.

>"This time a nuclear catastrophe was miraculously avoided, but miracles cannot last forever," it added.
