So Trump attorneys led by Trusty McTrustface tried to beg that Jack Smith not indict Trump. They failed. Trump learned yesterday he'll be arrested & go to prison. He's freaking out. This is good of course
So what do we know about Espionage-A-Lago? #Arrestmas
Arrestmas Thread 2/
We know there was search with warrant of Mar-A-Lago & FBI recovered 101 classified documents. Later we learned Trump actually had stolen 325 classified documents (at least) from White House. That is 1,625 years of prison at JUST the legal mandatory minimum
Arrestmas Thread 3/
We found out that Trump court jester Christina Bobblehead signed a letter promising FBI there were no more documents at Mar-A-Lago. This was before the FBI raid. So she lied to FBI
Bobb has since flipped & quit Trump & ratted out all the Trumpomobsters
Arrestmas Thread 4/
We found out that Trump's lead attorney in classified docs case, Evan Corcoran, who joined his legal team only in 2022, wrote that letter lying to FBI. Evan met with Jack Smith, was scared to death, quit Trump and has flipped against the Trumpomobsters
Arrestmas Thread 5/
We learned that Tim Parlatore, Trump's lead attorney for all his court cases for at least past 5 years, met with Jack Smith, was scared to death, and promptly quit Trump and has flipped against the Trumpomobsters
Trump is out of competent representation
Arrestmas Thead 6/
So now, his latest legal clown, Trusty McTrustface took two court jesters to be named later with him to meet Jack Smith begging that Trump won't be indicted. He failed. And 5 min after they left Jack Smith's office, Trump freaked out, that he will be arrested
Arrestmas Thead 7/
Can Trump try to argue he had declassified the documents, or he had a right to keep them, or some law protected him. He could. Except we found out, Jack Smith has a recording from summer 2021 where Trump admits he holds secret documents illegally.

Could Trump try to blame it on crooked staff or crooked lawyers. Sure. But Jack Smith has evidence Trump organized the flooding of the video surveillance room at Mar-A-Lago, in an attempt to destroy evidence proving his hiding of classified documents
Arrestmas Thead 9/
On the obstruction of justice, for the 101 last classified docus, and Trump flooding the video room, that is 20 years per document. You can add 2,020 years on top of the 1,625 years we had earlier = 3,645 years
I think it's fair to say Trump is screwed. Bigly
Arrestmas Thead 10/
There is VERY MUCH MORE on just Espionage-A-Lago, before we even start to consider the much bigger criminal conspiracy, largest crime in FBI history = Jan 6th
And those are just 2 of FIFTY-SEVEN criminal cases Trump will face in court (& found guilty on all)

Missing some Tweet in this thread? You can try to
force a refresh
JACK SMITH: Yes, but we no longer are actively considering this possibility
ATTORNEY 1: How did you arrive to that conclusion
JACK SMITH: Your previous colleague, Christina Bobb suggested that to us. We considered it but rejected it. She has since turned state's evidence
ATTORNEY 1: In that case, if I can amend our proposal, I would suggest my client could plead no contest to one charge of a felony, but only probation, no prison time?
JACK SMITH: We are no longer considering that option
I do not KNOW when Trump will be indicted by Jack Smith, only that Trump will. And by all we know, the FIRST of many criminal indictments will be Espionage-A-Lago, because that is SIMPLEST crime of SMALLEST number of co-criminals involved in that conspiracy
That said...
That said..
About 3 weeks ago, Trump's own lawyers went PUBLIC that they fear an arrest of Trump by Jack Smith is IMMINENT
Then came the silly gambit to try to meet with Attorney General Merrick Garland who of course refused
Today Trump lawyers met with Jack Smith
That meeting was short, the 3 Trump court jesters emerged stone-faced, shocked. Immediately after that meeting, Trump started to rant over at Truth Socialist, that he is going to be arrested
I think it is now clear, Trump lawyers AND TRUMP HIMSELF expect the arrest is IMMINENT
Jack Smith has had it for a long while. It was not news TO HIM
We only found out now. The game is TOTALLY over. And Jack Smith has HUNDREDS more recordings like that
THAT is why he has no plea bargains left. He doesn't need more flips
That recording proves that after Trump left White House, he KNEW he had classified documents he was not allowed to keep (that he had not declassified)
It is PROOF OF GUILT. It is 'mens rea' in legal terms. This evidence is all the jury needs to hear to CONVICT Trump on espionage
But it is first proof we've learned of the EXPANSION of the crime. I counted for you that just the THEFT of 325 classified documents meant 1,625 years in prison as MANDATORY MINIMUM
Now that we know he's discussed secret documents with unauthorized people, we go past 5,000 years
Trump has been in court over 3,600 times in his life (lost almost every time)
Those were civil trials. His FIRST ever criminal trial is on Manhattan in March 2024. He faces 34 counts on a slam dunk case about his financial frauds. There are tapes. He faces 136 years in NY prison
That Manhattan judge is not going to give Trump 136 tears but he will be convicted on all 34 counts. IF the Judge ONLY gives six months per count... it is 17 YEARS in a New York State prison
Or if 'concurrent' there are TWO SETS of unrelated crimes. So could be 4+4 = 8 years
I don't care one iota how may years Trump gets on Manhattan, as long as he goes to prison. THEN he NEVER gets out. Because the NEXT (of 56 more criminal trials) will start
We already know Georgia is handing indictments to about a dozen people incl Trump this summer
It IS plausible, that Trump got away with stealing 325 secret documents (about 2,800 PAGES) and nobody noticed, until the National Archives were chasing some missing non-secret papers and spotted these
..mainly because Trump was being wiretapped. I do not 'know' this. We DO know Giuliani was wiretapped since 2019, Bill Barr forgot to tell Trump. Rudy & Trump spoke every night plotting crimes together. If not before, then after Jan 6 FBI got wiretap on Trump. And he knew nothing
The moment FBI heard Trump planning CRIMES with Rudy on the phone, they would get a wiretap on Trump, and listen in to his OTHER crimes too. And so when Trump lackeys like the Bobblehead & Corey Lewandowski stole documents for Trump - FBI knew
This I can promise you. Nobody knows more about Trump crimes than Jack Smith. Not Giuliani, not Bill Barr, not Mark Meadows not Ivanka, not Jr, not Jared, not the Slovenian rental - NOT EVEN TRUMP HIMSELF
Every Trumpomobster PAID a bribe to Trump to get their job. They KNEW...
Every Trumpomobster KNEW going in - when they PAID Trump a BRIBE to get their job - that it was a criminal enterprise. So EVERY ONE had an 'insurance file'. We HEARD Giuliani brag about his - & FBI took it from Rudy. (Jack has it now)
EVERY Trumpomobster expected to rat OTHERS
When ALL of these criminals tried to flip - they all had to give their 'proffer' to FBI or DOJ or later, Jack Smith. So Jack Smith knows EVERY crime. And DOJ selected back then, who are the VERY few who got the very rotten deals (all with prison time)
