Trump Busted Hiding White House Records At Mar A Lago

It is started to become more and more clear why Donald Trump didn't want all of his records turned over to the January 6th Committee - he was apparently hiding some of them at Mar-a-Lago. This is a fairly clear violation of the Presidential Records Act, and if the DOJ had any courage, they would be preparing charges against the former President right this moment. How many more instances of law breaking will it take to finally make this man face accountability? Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

So apparently Donald Trump just continues to break the law and nothing ever happens to him. Yesterday, we learned, according to the Washington Post, that the National Archives had to go down to Mar-a-Lago to retrieve multiple different boxes filled with communications from Donald Trump's time in the White House. Not only was it illegal, a violation of the presidential records act for him to even have these communications with him, they were not properly stored. They were left out, just hanging out down there in Mar-a-Lago and staffers now say they're looking for even more because they think they may not have gotten all of them. And of course, among some of the communications where Donald Trump's so-called love letters, as the media's calling them, to Kim Jong-un. But here's the thing. The National Archives did in fact, get their hands on these.

They're looking to see if there's anymore. They're gonna have the records. The presidential records act was put in place following the Nixon administration for very obvious reasons. Now we learned last week that Donald Trump had a habit of ripping up these documents. His aids had to go back, tape them back together, assuming they even got all of them or found all the pieces. And now here we are, a week later, he had taken the records illegally from the White House with him down to Mar-a-Lago. Where's the charges, right? Where, where, where are the cops? Where are the people with the handcuffs? Where's the Department of Justice on this? You know, I'm, I'm, I'm getting sick and tired of sitting here talking about very obvious violations of federal law by the former president of the United States and nothing happened to him, nothing. Folks, this is illegal. There's no other way to slice it.

A violation of the presidential records act is illegal. Yet here we are. There he is. Nothing is happening. And it's because Merrick Garland sucks at his job. That's the bottom line. Any other, you know, willing and capable individual serving as attorney general of the United States, would've come out and at least done some kind of press conference. At least issued a statement on any of this and said, hey, okay, we're gonna look into. Nothing. Dead frigging silence from our completely incompetent US Department of Justice being run by Merrick Garland. And I'm also sick and tired, by the way, of hearing all these people, they send you emails, they reach out to me on Twitter, like, oh, you better calm down. Stop going after Merrick Garland. Oh, you gotta trust the process here. There's no process. You're kidding yourselves. Stop it. Merrick Garland's not doing anything.

Merrick Garland could be doing a lot. Hell, we probably wouldn't be talking about Donald Trump right now if Merrick Garland actually was doing his job, we'd be talking about where the trials are at, sure. But we wouldn't be talking about rallies. We wouldn't be talking about stupid things he says in media interviews and that all rests on the shoulders of Merrick Garland. A horrible choice for attorney general, because he's doing nothing. Donald Trump broke repeated rules, at least, can't necessarily say broke laws.
