This could be enormous expansion of Jan 6th criminals - and an avenue for 1 or 2 Trumpomobsters to buy a valuable plea bargain (with LESS prison time, none of them walk)
Trump sold EVERYTHING. Including cabinet posts. We only 'know' of one, Ambassador Sondland (Impeachment 1) admitted he paid a million dollars to Trump for his appointment (yes that is a bribe, yes this too will be investigated in due time & Trump convicted)
What of pardons?
Bone Saw Boy told Jan 6th Committee testifying under oath, that he was busy arranging the pardons in January 2021. So we know Jared was personally involved
Now.. Jared seems like he has flipped, he did not plead 5th. and Jared is vulnerable in Tom Barrack extortion of Qatar etc
If Jared has flipped, and was wise (the two are not necessarily both true) he would confess all his crimes. And thus that Trump sold pardons
Even if Jared did not... we heard in Matt Gaetz teen rape investigation that Roger Stone was handling Matt's pardon request (for Trump)
Roger Stone was peddling Trump pardons. And what just happened to The Girl With The Nixon Tattoo? Roger's lover Alex Jones handed his phone messages to Sandy Hook attorneys. Including January 2021 when Roger was selling pardons. Oopsie? The love birds no doubt 'prayed' about this
Who else might be in rush to confess now? The twice-impeached former chair of the AGA, the American Gargoyle Association, Rep Paul Gosar (seen here smiling for cameras) was promising Trump pardons for PAST crimes to those who joined Jan 6th attempted coup d'etat. Arizona Asshole
Gosar was soon convinced he had committed federal crimes related to January 6th, so he asked also for a Presidential pardon for himself. The Patron of Pardons was not smiling for Gosar. So now he has no other recourse except to cut his prison time by flipping in Grand #Flippathon
There likely are others who also know of the Pardon-selling scheme. I have seen gossip about the crooked path to hell, Kellyanne Conway being involved too. Am not sure about her
But Trump would have documentation about the pardons he sold.. would keep in his SAFE.. Or did keep
It is NOT illegal to lobby for pardons
It is legal for Trump to take any payment for a pardon. Utterly totally completely corrupt
And gossip is, that Trump sold pardons. Price tag anywhere from half a million to two million dollars per pardon
Trump talked about pardons with everybody. With Bill Barr. With Giuliani. With Patsy Baloney. With Chris Christie
Bill Barr testified to Jan 6th & did not plead the 5th. Sounds like Barr has flipped
Pat Cipollone is cooperating with Feds now
Rudy was wiretapped since 2019
If Trump took bribes for handing out Presidential Pardons, Trump goes to prison for... I estimate (conservatively) 700 years federal without parole. He might not outlive that sentence
What happens to the pardoned? SCOTUS has to decide whether they go back inside.. :-)

First. Attorney General Merrick Garland said he personally approved search warrant filing. If you doubted is Garland shielding rich white Republican assholes, STFU
Second. Garland told us they had issued a subpoena for the missing documents. Trump defied it
We did not know of this subpoena - in June - until now. That is how Garland operates. He is doing this BY THE BOOK, not like how corrupt Bill Barr did. That is how it is supposed to work. No public fuss, at this stage of an investigation. He is doing his job (and doing it well)
Trump REFUSED to hand documents DOJ knew he had. That establishes his clear guilty state of mind. Trump knew what he has to do, and refused
Then Garland authorized this filing of the search warrant. A Federal judge appointed by Trump approved it. Because DOJ knew he had the docs
EVERY Trumpomobster has a 'fail-safe' emergency plan. If things go bad, this is how they avoid prison. EVERY Trumpomobster has made insurance files, recordings. EVERY ONE OF THEM
Most will not succeed in their plea bargains, but all will try
Before Trump is tried on crimes related to the FBI raid of Mar-A-Lago, those near him will ALL be tried. It includes yes Ivanka, Don Jr etc. This is a Mafia trial. The boss is ALWAYS tried last. And everybody BELOW Trump had some kind of insurance file and fail-safe plan
CERTAINLY some still near Trump have flipped (many more than 'one informant' for FBI). All will eventually try to flip. And we have seen from Ivanka & Don Jr, they have likely flipped ALREADY - neither pleaded 5th in New York, where Trump then pleaded 5th.
These past few days were hectic. Trump's HOME was raided by FBI on federal seach warrant. Feds took 10 BOXES of evidence. They have an informant. They knew WHERE Trump was hiding government documents Trump had stolen
And they got the contents of his safe :-)
Around the same time we had several huge developments elsewhere, starting with Congressman Scott Perry having his phone seized by FBI, on a search warrant. It also means Perry had been on a wiretap. This alone could give us a week of techie-forensic phoney stuff to talk about
But there is also the gay couple Alex Jones & Roger Stone exchanging 'prayers' in their #IntimateMessages. We normal people would call their prayers pornographic images but you say potato; Dan Quayle spells potatoe
And tons more, Rudy's Doctor's Note. Don Jr not pleading 5th etc
Ten years from now, when we look back at this point in Trump's career ending - we will see, that raid on Trump residence provided the keys to most of his convictions
The safe
Trump will have kept much of his most damaging evidence in the safe
So the messages from Alex Jones. The National Security documents Trump stole from White House. Mark Meadows flipping on Trump, etc...
That all PALES with what Trump had in his safe. Why? Trump was accustomed to EXTORTING his friends and his enemies. So he has THOSE kind of files
Take the honorable Rapey McForehead at the Gaetz of Hell. Matt had written a CONFESSION to Trump, when begging for his pardon. He and fellow-rapist Joel Greenberg gave that written confession to Roger Stone. Trump has it, or a copy of it, in his safe - to BLACKMAIL GAETZ
Note the tapping? Come on, it is clear. The wire-tapping :-)
Nuttsylvania's Ranking Terrorist, Scott Perry phone was seized by FBI? He must have been under wiretap before that happened.
For how long has Perry been wiretapped? Ah.. THAT gets interesting
Scott Perry is one of 3 members of Congress than Trump personally identifed in phone call to his acting Attorney General and his deputy, as corrupt 'R Congressmen' willing to overturn democracy (that turned into Jan 6th). Trump said this on phone to Jeffrey Rosen on 27 Dec 2020
I do not know WHEN the terrorist and part-time Congresman Scott Perry from Nuttsylvania was placed under wiretap by FBI. He certainly was until yesterday. And most def, FBI got that wiretap on January 7th 2021, if Perry was not under wiretap already, after Dec 27, 2020.
