Trump pleads not guilty in federal classified documents case - 6/13 (FULL LIVE STREAM)

Join Washington Post reporters as former president Donald Trump turns himself in to authorities in Miami on seven federal charges, including making false statements, conspiracy to obstruct justice and willful retention of national defense secrets in violation of the Espionage Act. The charges carry the potential of years in prison if he is found guilty. Trump is the first former U.S. president to face federal criminal charges and to be twice indicted. He has denied any wrongdoing.

The investigation is being led by special counsel Jack Smith, who was appointed after the discovery that hundreds of classified documents were taken to Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home when the former president left the White House. The criminal probe centers on whether Trump took government secrets with him and obstructed an investigation into what documents he might have kept at his estate.

This is Trump’s second indictment in three months; he was indicted in New York in March on state allegations of falsifying business documents related to hush money payments. He has pleaded not guilty. The former president also is under investigation for his efforts to overturn the 2020 election results. Legal experts say Trump, who is the frontrunner for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, still can legally campaign with a pending indictment and even if he is convicted.

Should have fled to Moscow before his passport was revoked...candidate for the death penalty if he accepted cash from foreign countries in exchange for STOLEN NATIONAL SECURITY SECRETS.

Too funny not to share; I heard Gutfeld from the Fox Five news (could be a day or two old) say how he compares/sees the President and WH Democrats and their depts...DOJ, FBI, CIA, etc...looking like those characters at the “bar scene” from the OLD movie, Star Wars.

It Was A Perfect Depiction of OUR reality today! I couldn’t have said/thought of anything better!

Tonight, I just had to go out and peruse online to find those old pics from Star Wars (I remember that one scene that sticks out in mind till this day). Here is one of many pictures of that “bar scene/the Cantina!” I wasn't able to post the picture of the Star War scene but THERE IS QUITE A FEW FOR THIS SCENE...OUR LIFE!

People should pay more attention to Extraterrestrial Disclosure. Also what's up Washington Post? I can never read your stuff online. Apparently i have to pay for the chance to see if you're worth the money. That must be humiliating for the publication!
