That's not actually what the indictment claimed. In fact the entire indictment only has the word "insurrection" in it once, as part of a quote where a co-conspirator suggested invoking the Insurrection Act. And while the storming of the Capitol is part of the indictment, there is just as much of a focus on the other things Trump did such as organizing alternative slates of electors and pressuring Congresspeople to refuse to certify the count.
Yes, he had a meeting with the White House Counsel because he was trying to interview former White House officials and had to make sure he didn't run into issues like executive privilege.
Meh, his qualification is a matter of opinion. It's true that he was not a prosecutor, but as a judge, he had a lot of administrative experience, and if he himself wasn't in charge of the actual investigative aspect I don't see it being an issue.
Actually, we have no idea if they were involved in a romantic matter at all. There is single claim from one of the defendant's lawyers. It is known though that they have a long personal relationship, but anything else is speculation.
Meh. $250 an hour for outside legal services isn't that much.
We have no idea why they were traveling, but again, that's not itself an indication of anything.
Again, we have no idea why she was traveling with him. But if he billed the county, then there is probably an official reason for it. If he didn't it doesn't matter because he is allowed to spend his salary however he chooses.
Actually no. The judge has set a hearing to respond to a motion to dismiss the case.
I'm not sure "hinges" is the right word here. That's one of the actions he is being prosecuted for, but it also includes the alternative elector scheme, trying to get legislators to overturn the election, filing false legal documents, and so on.
You should check your facts. Georgia RICO has a long history of being used in non-Organized Crime cases. Also, the RICO charge was only one of many counts on that indictment.
And many other things.
Criminal investigations, especially ones with national security implications take time and cost money. The similar investigation into President Biden, which seems more cut and dry in many ways, also has cost millions (though admittedly less) and has been going on for over a year. Except that one hasn't issued any indictments and is likely not to.
Well, yeah. Do you expect criminal prosecutors to investigate cases with their own money?
Yup. That's not what he got in trouble for.
Which if true proved he knew he shouldn't have them since he didn't have a security clearance anymore.
Yes, he got charged separately for different documents, which is not an unusual way to charge.
That did not happen. In fact reports from around the time of the search indicated the FBI didn't even wear the blue windbreakers they normally do.
They tried that. And Trump allegedly hid documents.
A raid was not done.
No, hush money is not illegal, but that's not what he is being prosecuted for. He is being prosecuted for allegedly cooking the books to hide it. And as a life long New York business man, he knows or should know how seriously the state takes accurate business records.
