2) A RU sex worker was last person he saw b4 he replaced a laptop
3) FBI laptop has anomalies over months

In a declaration filed this week, Trump's top DOGE at Treasury cited a GAO report from last year. Lots of people On Here are taking that $2.7T out of context. (And ignoring that poor Tom miscited some quotes in this paragraph, but we expect shoddy work from DOGE.)

But let's look at the GAO Report he relies on, shall we?

Here's the report.



FIRST humiliating thing DOGE Tom didn't tell anyone is that MANY of these improper payments--the reason there was a recent spike--pertain to Trump's own COVID programs.

DOGE Tom says we need to fix Treasury bc Trump encouraged fraud. gao.gov/assets/gao-24-…Image
Here's EVEN MORE humiliating thing DOGE Tom told us. To get fraud #s he lays out, he relies on this Congressional testimony.

Humiliation 1: It's abt fraud in Trump's own COVID programs again.

Humiliation 2: Mike Ware is one of IG's Trump fired on Day 4.

Elon would like to remind you that Trump has installed HIS OWN BUREAUCRATS to access your $$, and thus far, his high school grads have fucked up at least 5 times.
Things @elonmusk's hand-selected bureaucrats have fucked up in 2 weeks on the job:

Forced out FAA head days b4 fatal accident
Screwed up Medicaid portal
Set up a way to spam entire agencies
Did shoddy research that led @karolineleavitt to lie abt Gaza
Offered unfunded buyouts
@elonmusk @karolineleavitt Why is Trump letting the richest man in the world fuck up YOUR OWN access to services the government owes you?

Barry Loudermilk, page 18: Liz Cheney had too much authority.

@RepLoudermilk, page 12: @Liz_Cheney didn't have enough authority. Image
Image
Loudermilk relied on Trump's Truth Social posts, rather than sworn testimony. I guess @RepLoudermilk is so stupid he believes everything Trump says on Truth Social? Image
A big part of @RepLoudermilk's attack on Cheney amounts to insinuation that @realJodyHunt acted unethically, which seems like something he might want to avoid. Image

Note that, contrary to common myths about the investigation into Trump, this subpoena PRECEDED Cassidy Hutchison's public testimony (and even Greg Jacob's, by a day).

The precedents were all set before Jack Smith was appointed.
Here's an interesting, almost entirely argument that bears on the immunity case. Trump was invoking Executive Privilege but (as Howell laid out) he was having such convos w/people outside of Exec, like Rudy.

storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…Image
Howell ordered second batch of witnesses to testify on November 19. Trump asked for a stay on December 7. In the interim, witnesses testified. That almost certainly means they are 2 Pats & likely Eric Herschmann (which is consistent w/public timeline).

Liz Cheney, Maria Shriver, and Kamala Harris sitting on a stage talking about bipartisanship. Image
One dynamic of this I've been tracking is this: Harris SHOULD NOT be talking nitty gritty abt Jan6 bc of the prosecution. Well, Cheney is the expert. And she speaks it well.

As she did, guy in back was nodding over and over. Image
Cheney: In this election, we need to elect the responsible adult.

It's definitely true that none of the files Jack Smith released are new.

But seeing all Trump's tweets in one place are useful as we attempt to prevent him from trying it again.
