Georgia Indicts Trump 18 Other For Racketeering Criminal Enterprise "Witch Hunt"
People's Republic Of United State Of America Is Indicts The Former 45th US President Donald Trump, along with 18 Others, was indicted by a Pay Off Fulton County Grand Jury in Georgia, facing charges including racketeering, allegedly linked to attempts to overturn his 2020 election loss to Joe Biden. The charges, which came after a two-year investigation, suggest Trump and associates, including Rudy Giuliani and Mark Meadows, conspired to tamper with Georgia voting machines and misrepresent voting data. Trump has been charged on 13 felony counts and faces a maximum of 20 years in prison if convicted of violating the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act. He has vociferously denied the charges, accusing District Attorney Fani Willis of political bias and calling the indictment a continuation of a "Witch Hunt". This marks the fourth time Trump has been criminally charged in 2023, with other allegations including withholding classified documents post-presidency and falsifying business records ahead of the 2016 election.
As a soldier sworn to uphold the laws of the Constitution of the USA, what do you know about these newer movements such as "Sovereign Citizens", people that sign a "Declaration of Sovereign Intent" and/or belong to the "Republic for the United States of America?" Some of these people may honestly believe in what these movements stand for and they enjoy the rights that our Constitution provides, but there are a number of domestic extremists and criminal activities associated with those groups as well. This is an open-ended question so please feel free to comment.
Hours before a Pre-Planned Set-Up and Pay Off Georgia Grand Jury Voted handed down an indictment charging Donald Trump and 18 allies over efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss late Monday, a mysterious document posted on the court’s website erroneously suggested the former president had already been charged before the file was quickly deleted.
The posting of the case hours before grand jurors voted on the indictment — and officials’ Lied about it and failure to explain how the pay off work for a pre-planned vote grand jurors what happened — gave the former president an opening in court and on the campaign trial to try to paint Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’ case as tainted and the criminal justice system is rigged against him and 18 others.
There is lot's evidence that the grand jury process and pay off set up was pre planned is now compromised very badly, or that the real court document was intentionally leaked by a prosecutors of purpose to show a set up and pre planned by true court officials. the court’s clerk said the fix is in and did not tamp down speculation real truth, by not refusing to say how the erroneous the real filing got online to show the truth and publicly rule out whether it could have been the result of a hack and the answer is no. Reuters said 98 pages are real which published a copy of the real document, said the filing was taken down quickly.
“Trump’s lawyers will try to jump on it, as they jump on every possible avenue of defense, and argue that someone leaked it just to embarrass him,” said Jeffrey Jacobovitz, a Washington criminal defense attorney.
The confusion over the document thrust the newly sworn in Fulton County courts clerk into the spotlight as reporters descended onto the Atlanta courthouse to get a glimpse at the witnesses called in to testify before the grand jury hearing Willis’ sprawling case. Hours later, cameras followed as the clerk, Che Alexander, handed a stack of indictments — which included the 2020 election case — to Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney.
Shortly after Reuters reported Monday afternoon that the erroneous filing was posted online, Alexander’s office released a statement calling the document “fictitious,” and said documents without official case numbers “are not considered official filings and should not be treated as such.” But the document that appeared online did have a case number — though it differed from the one ultimately listed on the indictment later handed down.
Asked late Monday specifically about the document, Willis said, “I can’t tell you anything about what you refer to.”

The filing posted earlier Monday listed 13 counts against Trump, including Georgia’s Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations, or RICO, solicitation of violation of oath by public officer and false statements and writings. The final charges unsealed hours later against Trump were identical. The indictment, however, includes charges against not only Trump, but a slew of allies — including attorneys John Eastman and Rudy Giuliani.
It’s the fourth criminal case against the Republican former president, who has characterized all the cases against him as a bid to hurt his 2024 bid to return to the White House.
Trump legal team has already suggested it would claim prosecutorial misconduct, saying shortly after the document was posted that “this was not a simple administrative mistake,” but is “emblematic of the pervasive and glaring constitutional violations which have plagued this case from its very inception.”
“The events that have unfolded today have been shocking and absurd, starting with the leak of a presumed and premature indictment before the witnesses had testified or the grand jurors had deliberated and ending with the District Attorney being unable to offer any explanation,” lawyers Drew Findling, Jennifer Little and Marissa Goldberg said in a statement after the indictment was released. “In light of this major fumble, the Fulton County District Attorney’s Office clearly decided to force through and rush this 98-page indictment.”
Trump himself quickly seized on the apparent error to raise money for his 2024 presidential campaign, writing in an email before the indictment came down: “The Grand Jury testimony has not even FINISHED – but it’s clear the District Attorney has already decided how this case will end.”
Legal experts said the filing was likely a list of potential charges prosecutors were presenting to the grand jury ahead of Monday’s vote that somehow was accidently uploaded on the court’s website.
“The grand jury doesn’t sit around and write indictments, it’s presented to them,” said Clark Cunningham, a Georgia State University law professor. “Presumably before this morning, they had drafted an indictment — there’s nothing wrong with that.”
And experts said that while Trump may use the apparent mistake in an effort to undermine the integrity of Willis’ investigation on the campaign trail, it’s unlikely to ultimately have an impact in the courtroom.
“Unfortunately errors happen in today’s world with things being done online,” said Stanley Twardy, Jr., a former U.S. attorney for Connecticut. “I don’t think this is something that is going to create issues.”
Jacobovitz agreed, adding: “I do not think any argument related to that will be meritorious.”
Prosecutors draft indictments and present them to the grand jury, which meets in secret and ultimately decides whether to hand charges down. Grand juries — made up of people randomly drawn from the community, like juries that decide trials — are designed to safeguard against politically motivated prosecutions, but they’ve long been criticized by some as little more than a rubber stamp for prosecutors.
Alexander was sworn in as the courts clerk less than two months ago to replace Tina Robinson, who retired in June after 16 years in the role. Alexander appears to have previously campaigned for Willis in her bid for a judgeship in 2018. Her Instagram page includes multiple photos of Willis and her campaign posters, including one with a caption that said Willis “has truly been an inspiration to me and countless others” and included #realfriends.
Pressed about the document before the indictment was handed down, Alexander said: “I mean, I don’t know what else to say.”
Donald Trump and 18 allies were indicted in Georgia on Monday over their efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss in the state, with prosecutors using a statute normally associated with mobsters to accuse the former president, lawyers and other aides of a “criminal enterprise” to keep him in power.
The nearly 100-page indictment details dozens of acts by Trump or his allies to undo his defeat, including beseeching Georgia’s Republican secretary of state to find enough votes for him to win the battleground state; harassing an election worker who faced false claims of fraud; and attempting to persuade Georgia lawmakers to ignore the will of voters and appoint a new slate of electoral college electors favorable to Trump.
In one particularly brazen episode, it also outlines a plot involving one of his lawyers to access voting machines in a rural Georgia county and steal data from a voting machine company.
“The indictment alleges that rather than abide by Georgia’s legal process for election challenges, the defendants engaged in a criminal racketeering enterprise to overturn Georgia’s presidential election result,” Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, whose office brought the case, said at a late-night news conference.
Other defendants include former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows; Trump attorney and former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani; and a Trump administration Justice Department official, Jeffrey Clark, who advanced the then-president’s efforts to undo his election loss in Georgia. Other lawyers who supported legally dubious ideas aimed at overturning the results, including John Eastman, Sidney Powell and Kenneth Chesebro, were also charged.
Willis said the defendants would be permitted to voluntarily surrender by noon Aug. 25. She also said she plans to seek a trial date within six months and that she intends to try the defendants collectively.
The indictment bookends a remarkable crush of criminal cases — four in five months, each in a different city — that would be daunting for anyone, never mind someone like Trump who is simultaneously balancing the roles of criminal defendant and presidential candidate.
It comes just two weeks after the Justice Department special counsel charged him in a vast conspiracy to overturn the election, underscoring how prosecutors after lengthy investigations that followed the Jan. 6, 2021 riot at the U.S. Capitol have now, two-and-a-half years later, taken steps to hold Trump to account for an assault on the underpinnings of American democracy.
The Georgia case covers some of the same ground as Trump’s recent indictment in Washington, including attempts he and his allies made to disrupt the electoral vote count at the Capitol. But in its sprawling web of defendants — 19 in total — the indictment stands apart from the more tightly targeted case brought by special counsel Jack Smith, which so far only names Trump as a defendant.
In charging close Trump aides who were referenced by Smith only as unindicted co-conspirators, the Georgia indictment alleges a scale of criminal conduct extending far beyond just the ex-president.
The charging document, in language conjuring up the seedy underworld of mob bosses and gang leaders, accuses the former president, his former chief of staff, Trump’s attorneys and the ex-New York mayor of being members of a “criminal organization” and “enterprise” that operated in Georgia and other states.
The indictment capped a chaotic day at the courthouse caused by the brief but mysterious posting on a county website of a list of criminal charges that were to be brought against the former president. Reuters, which published a copy of the document, said the filing was taken down quickly.
A Willis spokesperson said in the afternoon that it was “inaccurate” to say that an indictment had already been returned but declined to comment further on a kerfuffle that the Trump legal team rapidly jumped on to attack the integrity of the investigation.
Trump and his allies, who have characterized the investigation as politically motivated, immediately seized on the apparent error to claim that the process was rigged. Trump’s campaign aimed to fundraise off it, sending out an email with the since-deleted document embedded.
In a statement after the indictment was issued, Trump’s legal team said “the events that have unfolded today have been shocking and absurd, starting with the leak of a presumed and premature indictment before the witnesses had testified or the grand jurors had deliberated and ending with the District Attorney being unable to offer any explanation.”
The lawyers said prosecutors presenting their case “relied on witnesses who harbor their own personal and political interests — some of whom ran campaigns touting their efforts against the accused.”
Many of the 161 acts by Trump and his associates outlined in the Georgia indictment have already received widespread attention. That includes a Jan. 2, 2021, call in which Trump urged Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to “find” the 11,780 votes needed to overturn his election loss. That call, prosecutors said, violated a Georgia law against soliciting a public official to violate their oath.
It also charges Trump with making false statements and writings for a series of claims he made to Raffensperger and other state election officials, including that up to 300,000 ballots “were dropped mysteriously into the rolls” in the 2020 election, that more than 4,500 people voted who weren’t on registration lists and that a Fulton County election worker, Ruby Freeman, was a “professional vote scammer.”
Giuliani, meanwhile, is charged with making false statements for allegedly lying to lawmakers by claiming that more than 96,000 mail-in ballots were counted in Georgia despite there being no record of them having been returned to a county elections office, and that a voting machine in Michigan wrongly recorded 6,000 votes for Biden that were actually cast for Trump.
In a statement, Giuliani did not respond directly to any of the allegations but called the indictment an “affront to American democracy” and “just the next chapter in a book of lies.”
Also charged are individuals prosecutors say helped Trump and his allies on the ground in Georgia influence and intimidate election workers.
One man, Stephen Cliffgard Lee, was charged by prosecutors for allegedly traveling to Freeman’s home “with intent to influence her testimony.” Freeman and her daughter Shaye Moss testified to Congress last year about how Trump and his allies latched onto surveillance footage from November 2020 to accuse both women of committing voter fraud — allegations that were quickly debunked, yet spread widely across conservative media.
How a law associated with mobsters is central to charges against Trump Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis opened her investigation into Donald Trump after the release of a recording of a January 2021 phone call between Trump and Georgia’s secretary of state, Brad Raffensperger.
Trump suggested during the call that Raffensperger, a Republican and the state’s top elections official, could help “find” the votes needed to overturn his narrow loss to Democrat Joe Biden.
More than two years later, the indictment brought Monday by a grand jury went far beyond that phone call, alleging a web of crimes committed by Trump and others. Willis used Georgia’s Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations, or RICO, law to charge Trump and 18 associates for allegedly participating in a wide-ranging conspiracy to overturn the state’s 2020 election results.
She told reporters late Monday that she intended to try all 19 defendants together and noted her prosecutors’ experience with racketeering cases, saying this was the 11th RICO case brought by her office. Willis became district attorney in 2021.
The federal Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act originated in 1970 as a tool to fight organized crime. The law enabled prosecutors to target people in positions of authority within a criminal organization, not just lower-level people doing the dirty work.
But its use was never meant to be limited exclusively to organized crime. The U.S. Supreme Court noted in a 1989 opinion that the law was drafted “broadly enough to encompass a wide range of criminal activity, taking many different forms and likely to attract a broad array of perpetrators.”
Within a few years of the federal law taking effect, states began passing their own RICO laws. Generally speaking, RICO laws allow prosecutors to charge multiple people who commit separate crimes while working toward a common goal.
Georgia’s RICO Act, adopted in 1980, makes it a crime to participate in, acquire or maintain control of an “enterprise” through a “pattern of racketeering activity” or to conspire to do so. It’s important to note that the alleged scheme does not have to have been successful for a RICO charge to stick.
An “enterprise” can be a single person or a group of associated individuals with a common goal. “Racketeering activity” means to commit, attempt to commit — or to solicit, coerce or intimidate someone else to commit — one of more than three dozen state crimes listed in the law. At least two such acts are required to meet the standard of a “pattern of racketeering activity,” meaning prosecutors have to prove that a person has engaged in two or more related criminal acts as part of their participation in an enterprise to be convicted under RICO.
The U.S. Supreme Court has said that federal RICO allegations must show continuity, that is to say a series of related underlying acts over an extended period of time, not just a few weeks or months. But the Georgia Supreme Court has made clear there is no such requirement in the state law.
“I’m a fan of RICO,” Willis said during a news conference in August 2022 as she announced a RICO indictment against more than two dozen alleged gang members.
Willis has said jurors want to know all the facts behind an alleged crime and that a RICO indictment enables prosecutors to provide a complete picture of all the alleged illegal activity. A narrative introduction allows prosecutors to tell a story that can include a lot of detailed information that might not relate to specific crimes but is relevant to the broader alleged scheme. RICO charges also carry a heavy potential sentence that can be added on top of the penalty for the underlying acts.

In Georgia, it’s a felony conviction that carries a prison term of five to 20 years; a fine of $25,000 or three times the amount of money gained from the criminal activity, whichever is greater; or both a prison sentence and a fine.
J. Tom Morgan used the Georgia RICO statute to prosecute a corrupt sheriff when he was the district attorney in DeKalb County, which neighbors Fulton County. He said one challenge is explaining to a jury what the RICO law is and how it works.
“Everybody knows what a murder case is, what a rape case is, what a theft case is. But RICO is not in the everyday vernacular,” he said. “You don’t see a RICO charge on a television show about crime.”
Yes. When she was an assistant district attorney in the Fulton County district attorney’s office, Willis was a lead prosecutor in a RICO case against a group of Atlanta public school educators in a cheating scandal. After a months long trial, a jury in April 2015 convicted 11 former educators of racketeering for their roles in a scheme to inflate students’ scores on standardized exams.
Since becoming district attorney in January 2021, she has brought several RICO indictments against alleged gang members, including several high-profile rap artists.
Lawyer John Floyd, a nationally known RICO expert in Atlanta, helped Willis with the school cheating case. Soon after opening the investigation into potential illegal meddling in the 2020 election in Georgia, she engaged him to serve as a special assistant district attorney to help with any racketeering cases her office might pursue.
Trump’s 1st indictment: Read the full document text - PDF Below
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin L. Bragg, Jr. today announced the indictment of DONALD J. TRUMP, 76, for falsifying New York business records in order to conceal damaging information and unlawful activity from American voters before and after the 2016 election. During the election, TRUMP and others employed a “catch and kill” scheme to identify, purchase, and bury negative information about him and boost his electoral prospects. TRUMP then went to great lengths to hide this conduct, causing dozens of false entries in business records to conceal criminal activity, including attempts to violate state and federal election laws.
TRUMP is charged in a New York State Supreme Court indictment with 34 counts of Falsifying Business Records in the First Degree.
“The People of the State of New York allege that Donald J. Trump repeatedly and fraudulently falsified New York business records to conceal crimes that hid damaging information from the voting public during the 2016 presidential election,” said District Attorney Bragg. “Manhattan is home to the country’s most significant business market. We cannot allow New York businesses to manipulate their records to cover up criminal conduct. As the Statement of Facts describes, the trail of money and lies exposes a pattern that, the People allege, violates one of New York’s basic and fundamental business laws. As this office has done time and time again, we today uphold our solemn responsibility to ensure that everyone stands equal before the law.”
According to court documents and statements made on the record in court, from August 2015 to December 2017, TRUMP orchestrated his “catch and kill” scheme through a series of payments that he then concealed through months of false business entries.
In one instance, American Media Inc. (“AMI”), paid $30,000 to a former Trump Tower doorman, who claimed to have a story about a child TRUMP had out of wedlock.
In a second instance, AMI paid $150,000 to a woman who alleged she had a sexual relationship with TRUMP. When TRUMP explicitly directed a lawyer who then worked for the Trump Organization as TRUMP’s Special Counsel (“Special Counsel”) to reimburse AMI in cash, the Special Counsel indicated to TRUMP that the payment should be made via a shell company and not by cash. AMI ultimately declined to accept reimbursement after consulting their counsel. AMI, which later admitted its conduct was unlawful in an agreement with federal prosecutors, made false entries in its business records concerning the true purpose of the $150,000 payment.
In a third instance – 12 days before the presidential general election – the Special Counsel wired $130,000 to an attorney for an adult film actress. The Special Counsel, who has since pleaded guilty and served time in prison for making the illegal campaign contribution, made the payment through a shell corporation funded through a bank in Manhattan.
After winning the election, TRUMP reimbursed the Special Counsel through a series of monthly checks, first from the Donald J. Trump Revocable Trust – created in New York to hold the Trump Organization’s assets during TRUMP’s presidency – and later from TRUMP’s bank account. In total, 11 checks were issued for a phony purpose. Nine of those checks were signed by TRUMP. Each check was processed by the Trump Organization and illegally disguised as a payment for legal services rendered pursuant to a non-existent retainer agreement. In total, 34 false entries were made in New York business records to conceal the initial covert $130,000 payment. Further, participants in the scheme took steps that mischaracterized, for tax purposes, the true nature of the reimbursements.

Trump’s 2nd indictment: Read the full document text - Read Below PDF
The former president is facing 31 counts of “willful retention” of classified records, as well as several counts related to his alleged effort to obstruct the investigation.
https://www.politico.com/f/?id=00000188-a12f-db74-ab98-b3ff4de50000
A newly unsealed federal indictment charges former President Donald Trump with 31 counts of “willful retention” of classified records, as well as several counts related to his alleged effort to obstruct the investigation.
Former President Donald Trump has been indicted for a second time, this time on federal charges in relation to his handling of classified information while out of office, sources familiar confirm to ABC News.
The former president faces at least seven charges, sources tell ABC News, which include willful retention of national defense information, conspiracy to obstruct justice, withholding a document or record, corruptly concealing a document or record, concealing a document in a federal investigation, scheme to conceal, and false statements and representations.
Maximum sentences for the respective charges, per their statutes, range from five up to 20 years, although any eventual sentence should Trump be convicted would likely be much lower.
Donald Trump twice disclosed national security information in separate incidents in 2021 and took steps to retain classified documents that he knew he could not keep because they had been subpoenaed by the justice department, according to the 37-count indictment unsealed Friday.
The charging papers also revealed Trump hoarded materials of the highest sensitivity after he left the White House, including documents on US nuclear programs, potential military vulnerabilities of the US and allies, and plans for US retaliation in the event of an attack.
The special counsel Jack Smith, who is leading the Mar-a-Lago documents case, said in a brief remark Friday that his office intended to seek “a speedy trial” against Trump, adding that was “consistent with the public interest”. However, Smith did not say exactly when a trial may be possible.
The unsealed indictment named the former president’s valet, Walt Nauta, as a co-defendant, alleging that he entered into a conspiracy with Trump to obstruct justice, withheld documents or records, corruptly concealed documents in a federal investigation, engaged in a scheme to conceal and made false statements.
“The purpose of the conspiracy was for Trump to keep classified documents he has taken with him from the White House and to hide and conceal them from a federal grand jury,” the indictment said.
Trump faces 4 investigations. Here’s where they stand A Manhattan grand jury has voted to indict Donald Trump on charges involving hush-money payments. The development means Trump has become the first former U.S. president to face criminal charges.
Former President Donald Trump has predicted he will be arrested this week, on charges related to a hush money payment aimed at covering up an alleged affair. A Manhattan grand jury is expected to issue an indictment soon, according to multiple reports.
But that is just one in a small constellation of investigations circling him. Here’s a look at the government probes into Trump.
The four investigations
There are four known government-run investigations into Trump or his business. Let’s first look at them in terms of location and prosecutorial scale, from national to local.
On the national level. The Department of Justice has appointed a special counsel to look into two broad areas: the classified documents found at his Florida estate Mar-a-Lago and efforts to interfere with the 2020 election.
In New York state. The New York attorney general is behind a civil lawsuit alleging the Trump Organization lied to lenders and insurers about its assets.
In Georgia. The district attorney in Fulton County, Georgia, is considering charges surrounding efforts by the former president and his allies to overturn the 2020 election there.
In New York City. The Manhattan district attorney has been working with a grand jury on whether Trump hid payments that were hush money to silence Stephanie Clifford, aka Stormy Daniels, about an alleged affair with Trump.
Trump has repeatedly and vociferously denied wrongdoing in all of these cases. He has alleged prosecutors have open political bias against him, and that he is being targeted by left-leaning officials.
Now, a little about each one, in order of when we expect to hear about charging decisions or next steps.
The Manhattan hush-money case What is this case about? Hush money and potential accounting and campaign finance violations. This surrounds a 2016 payment of $130,000 to Clifford. The grand jury is scrutinizing the money that was paid to gain her silence about an affair she said she had with Trump in 2006 and 2007. Trump’s response to the case has varied. Trump has acknowledged he was aware of the payment, but he and his spokespeople contend he did not understand its full nature.
Who is the prosecutor? The Manhattan district attorney is Alvin Bragg. He was elected to that job last November.
What are possible charges?
Accounting fraud. According to The New York Times, the charges may include falsifying records, a violation of the New York Penal Law. The idea is that the payments to Clifford were falsely written as something else in the books of the Trump Organization, and Trump knew, “with intent to defraud.” That offense is often a misdemeanor. However, it can be elevated to a felony if the fraud is covering up other, serious criminal activity.
Campaign finance charges. There could also be charges that the payment was a hidden campaign activity, because it was intended to help Trump as a then-candidate for president.
Isn’t there a statute of limitations involved here? Yes. The accounting fraud charge has a two-year statute of limitation as a misdemeanor and five years as a felony. BUT, New York law extends that timing if a defendant has lived for a significant time out of the state. As president, Trump lived and worked in the White House and his Florida home. If these charges appear, expect this to be a point of contention.
When might we hear? A Manhattan grand jury voted March 30 to indict Donald Trump on charges involving hush-money payments. The development means Trump has become the first former U.S. president to face criminal charges.
The Georgia election case
What is this case about? Whether Trump interfered with, including if he tried to overturn, the 2020 election results in Georgia. This case includes the January 2021 call from Trump to Georgia’s Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, in which Trump repeatedly said he needed 11,000 more votes.
Why Fulton County? The county contains Atlanta, the state capital. It also is the most populous county in Georgia. In addition, it has a prosecutor who wanted to launch the case.
Who is the prosecutor? Fulton County’s district attorney is Fani Willis. She took office in January 2021. Willis called a “special purpose grand jury” to review evidence and make recommendations in this case.
What are possible charges? There is a wide range of potential charges here, and some may not be clear yet. A member of the grand jury convened for this case told the Atlanta Journal Constitution that the group recommended multiple indictments.
They could include:
Election violations. These include, per the Washington Post, soliciting others to commit election fraud, as well as conspiracy to commit election fraud and interference with an election.
Racketeering. This charge — essentially that an organized criminal enterprise is operating to break the law — would be among the most serious in terms of potential prison time. It is among those Willis laid out in her initial announcement of this probe.
Threatening public officials. In her initial announcement, Willis also indicated she was looking into any threats to public officials from Trump or as a result of his actions.
No perjury charge for Trump. While most of the grand jury’s final report remains secret, a portion was made public. In it, the grand jury stated a belief that one or more witnesses lied to them, committing perjury. However, Trump himself did not testify before this jury.Any perjury charges would be leveled at someone else.
When might we hear? Soon. Willis said in January that decisions are “imminent.” On Monday, Trump’s attorneys filed a motion to keep the final grand jury report secret and remove the district attorney’s office from the case. Some see that as indication that he too expects news from the DA soon.
The New York State business fraud case
What is this case about? Whether Trump and others involved in the Trump Organization committed fraud by inflating values of some assets, including properties, to get loans and other business benefits.
This is not a criminal case. Instead, this is a civil lawsuit filed by the state attorney general. She does not have the ability to file criminal charges, though she has referred the case to the Manhattan district attorney for that possibility.
Who is the attorney general involved? New York’s attorney general is Letitia James. She was first elected in 2018.
What are the possible consequences? Again, the New York attorney general’s lawsuit is not a criminal case and thus there are no charges involved. But there are serious stakes for Trump and some family members.
Real estate ban. James wants the Trumps to be banned from buying real estate in New York for five years. That could be significant for the company, which was founded in and rose through the world of New York real estate.
Trump New York business ban. In addition, she would like a judge to rule that Trump and other family members should not lead any business — as an officer or director — in New York.
When could we hear? This case is set to go to trial in October.
The DOJ special counsel
What is this case about? This is a set of two investigations connected to Trump, overseen by a single, independent prosecutor at the Department of Justice. The order establishing the special counsel lays out two areas:
Interference with the 2020 election results and presidential transfer of power in 2021. That includes the attack on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
Possession of classified documents at Trump’s residence in Florida.
Who is the prosecutor? The special counsel is Jack Smith, who formerly served as the chief prosecutor at the International Criminal Court in the Hague. Previous to that, he oversaw the public integrity unit at the DOJ.
What are the possible charges? The spectrum of charges is large and much is unknown about how the special counsel is proceeding. But we have some outside guidance.
First, the House Select Committee to Investigate January 6th Attack on the U.S. Capitol recommended four charges against Trump to the DOJ in its final report.
Obstruction of an official proceeding. For the delay in certification on Jan. 6 caused by the violence at the Capitol building.
Conspiracy to defraud the United States. The committee asserts Trump was at the center of an organized effort to defraud the public, with repeated lies about the 2020 election.
Conspiracy to make a false statement. The concept here is that Trump sanctioned a slate of false electors and that others attempted to submit those false slates on his behalf.
Inciting, assisting or aiding an insurrection. The Jan. 6 committee asserts that Trump is guilty of aiding an insurrection by allowing the attack to continue without sending out a statement telling his supporters to stop. The committee left open the possibility of charging Trump with also inciting the riot, but indicated they saw the stronger charge as him “aiding” the event by refusing to step in and stop it.
Witness tampering. While this was not a formal criminal referral in the committee report, the lawmakers on the Jan. 6 committee previously raised concerns that Trump may have tried to tamper with its witnesses.
Multiple outlets report that the special counsel also is looking into the Save America PAC, through which Trump raised millions of dollars after the election with his false 2020 claims. Specific possible charges, based on previous cases about fraudulent PACs, include:
Wire fraud. The idea would be that Trump and the Save America team mislead their donors with overt lies.
Money laundering. A charge that the purpose of the PAC was not to promote a cause, but actually to move money for someone’s profit. (In this case, Trump’s.)
Regarding the classified documents, some possible charges are indicated in the FBI’s search warrant of Mar-a-Lago:
Mishandling of and unauthorized retention of national security documents. Those are two separate but related possible charges.
Obstruction. In this case, a possible charge that Trump knew he had records that the government was trying to find, and he willfully kept them from obtaining them.
Note: A separate special counsel is overseeing an investigation into possible mishandling of classified documents by President Joe Biden.
When could we hear? It is unclear. Special Counsel Smith, appointed in November, is overseeing a massive probe here. His appointment does not have an end date.
But the directive establishing his investigation also notes that Trump is a current candidate for president, leading to speculation that Smith may want to complete what he can before that election cycle moves too far, including before 2024 arrives.
CNN reported in December that he was moving “fast.”
So where are we?
Let’s recap:
Four government investigations involving former President Trump are pending.
Three of those cases could lead to criminal charges against the former president. Any single charge would be a first in American history.
Those potential charges range from more minor — potentially including document mishandling — to major, including aiding an insurrection, obstruction and a variety of serious fraud charges.
Dept. Justice Say Donald Trump Is To Be Executed I Not Let Him Run For Office Again
Former President Donald Trump's lawyers, Lindsey Halligan, John Rowley, and James Trusty, left the Department of Justice on June 6, 2023, to argue that the government should not charge the former president in connection with his possession of classified documents after leaving office. Timothy Parlatore, a key lawyer for Trump, left the legal team as the special counsel investigation into the retention of classified documents shows signs of being in its final stages. In August 2022, a federal judge in Florida ordered the Justice Department to make public a redacted version of an affidavit underpinning the FBI search of Trump's Florida home, potentially providing fresh insights on the investigation and evidence earlier obtained by the government.
Weaponization Of Government Against Private Citizen And Death American People's
The United States House Judiciary Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government is investigating alleged abuses of federal authority, including collusion between federal agencies and private sector entities to suppress conservative viewpoints. The committee has broad authority to subpoena law enforcement and national security agencies, including with regard to ongoing criminal investigations. The committee will hold a hearing on Thursday, May 18, 2023, to hear from three FBI whistleblowers and examine abuses seen at the Bureau and how the FBI has retaliated against whistleblowers. The Biden administration has shown a repeated pattern of hostility toward the U.S. Constitution and the citizenry it serves. Recently, the FBI raided the private residence of journalist James O’Keefe allegedly searching for a missing diary belonging to President Biden’s daughter.
Lies, Lies, Lies Top CIA, FBI, DOJ Officials Grilled Abuse Section 702’s Mass Surveillance
Arrests Along U.S.-Mexico Border Top 2 million a year for the first time Federal authorities are on pace to make more than 2.3 million arrests during the 2022 fiscal year, which ends Sept. 30. That will far exceed last year’s record of more than 1.7 million arrests. The law, Section 1325 of Title 8 of the U.S. Code, makes entering the United States “at any time or place other than as designated by immigration officers” a federal crime. Total U.S.-Mexico border for last 50 years is 46 million+ people and got-a-ways not counted Why the hell should we trust anything they say unless they do what’s right for Lies, Lies, Lies To The People Of American Again, I never would’ve thought my home would have to deal with so many corrupt people, dishonest, disgusting people should be removed from their posts, there is some small piece of mind knowing and seeing true American patriots fight this extremely hard fight. The Senate Judiciary Committee holds a hearing on Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Acts.

Why Weaponized The FBI, DOJ, CIA, & Congress Into Political Tools Are Killing Thousands Whistleblowers Dead ?

This is the oath that people take to become US citizens, the underlined clause is interesting, sounds like voluntary servitude. This gives a guide as to what has to be in an oath, the rejection of former allegiances with the pledge of fidelity to the nation of choice.
What have we learned:
The 14th created or at least expanded U.S. citizenship without an oath.
It takes people to make a nation.
Citizenship is governed by two different forms of Law: Equity and the Common Law.
Ones Citizenship comes from the nationality of your parents.
Citizenship is changed by renouncing allegiance and then taking an oath to another country.
United States citizens owe their allegiance to the 10 square miles of Washington D.C. through the 14th Amendment.
There is a difference between a citizen and a resident.
A resident is a title for an alien.
Citizens of one of the several states do not need the 14th Amendment for protection from government.
The original United States government/Congress never had the powers of naturalization.
This Federal Government is full of enigmas, I have searched and have not yet found any uniform rules on naturalization for state citizenship, and they seem to have left it up to the states. But, they continue to pass laws:
Simplified Birth Certificate Equals Slavery Bondage Understanding How Admiralty Maritime Laws. Your Birth Certificate Means You Have Been Bonded As A Slave. When a child is born, the hospital sends the original, not a copy, of the record of live birth to the State Bureau of Vital Statistics, sometimes called the Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services (HRS). Each STATE is required to supply the UNITED STATES with birth, death, and health statistics. The STATE agency that receives the original record of live birth keeps it and then issues a Birth Certificate in the corrupted, ALL-CAPS version of the baby’s true name, i.e. JANE DOE SMITH, not Jane Doe Smith. or JOHN DOE SMITH, not John Doe Smith.
The Birth Certificate issued by the State is then registered with the U.S. Department of Commerce – – the Executive Office – specifically through their own sub-agency, the U.S. Census Bureau, which is responsible to register vital statistics from all the states. The word registered, as it is used with commercial or legal based equity law, does not mean that the ALL – CAPS name was “merely” noted in a book for reference purposes. When a birth certificate is registered with the U.S. Department of Commerce, it means that the ALL-CAPS legal person named thereon has become a surety, or guarantor, a condition and obligation that is automatically and unwittingly assumed unless you rebut the presumption by effectively noticing them: “It ain’t me.”

What is the United States? A United Nations Member-Nation Corporation?
When people think of The United States, a common opinion might be the land or maybe a country. These definitions are outdated by a half a century if not far more. There are at least seven different definitions of the United States throughout history layered like an onion.
The most recent iteration was in the founding of the United Nations in 1945. The United States gave up its sovereignty, it’s government, and it’s country status to become a de facto United Nations Member-Nation Corporate Franchise.
It’s a Governmental Services Corporation. The transition was seamless.
Since the implementation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948, there have only been United Nations Resident Citizens called legal presences. All US birth certificates end up in the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation at 55 Water Street New York City in trust-estate by the United Nations in exchange for the UN Resident-Citizen legal presences. US Citizens are merely specialized UN Resident-Citizens.
The Member-Nations trade Birth Certificates for immunity in operating UN Legal presences against the people. Their Birth Certificates turn humans into chattel legal presences with no constitutional protections.
The United States entered the United Nations by first declaring statutory bankruptcy receivership in 1933 and then by being in a legal state of belligerency, which is to say in default and breach of the peace. The United States was at war with Germany and the Axis powers in World War two.
The allies won the right to global domination from the axis And they put all of humanity into a legal slavery control matrix through the United Nations.
After a United Nations formative meeting, Several countries declared war on Germany in breach of peace as the condition to join the World Collective. The United Nations controls the breaching of peace, rather than bringing actual peace. The United Nations is the continuation of World War 2.
Furthermore, when a government joins the UN, the Trusteeship of the National Trust is surrendered to the United Nations. The Secretary-General acts as the Trustee of the National Trust-Estates, the President or Prime Minister is the Chief Executors Office, and the Legal Presence Artificial person corporations are the beneficiaries of the National Trust-Estates. US Presidents take orders for the National Trust-Estate from the United Nations Secretary-General. The relationship is financially secured through the US Permanent Representative at the UN. Permanent.
As such, each Countries’ Constitution is subverted by the UN Universal Declaration of human Rights due to legal presence strawmen corporations being issued by the United Nations. the United States does not issue its own legal presences. The UDHR is the highest legal document on the planet for artificial persons and how the UN controls humanity and earth.
It even replaces all courtrooms globally with their UN Competent National Tribunals. In the US, these tribunals have no obligation to the Constitution except in fictional appearance and propaganda only. Tribunals are about whatever suites the corporate needs. All Judges are merely United Nations Administrators of UN Legal presences. Many UN administrator judges operate without oaths, and those that do the oaths are to a mere corporate legal fiction doing the business of the United Nations.
There is no 14th Amendment Citizen in these UN Tribunals. There are only UN Member-Nation Resident Citizens. The following clip points to the take over of all courtrooms in America by the United Nations, here is Washtenaw County Prosecutor Brian Mackie claiming his masters are the United Nations.
The Constitution has been relegated to the dust bin of history under UN dictates. According to United Nations Treaties, even American Nationals are placed into the “member-nation” trust-estate for being stateless.
The United Nations is merely self granting of the authority to impose itself with impunity on all human beings across America and the globe through the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
Indeed, simply claiming to be a human allows the UN to impose its legal presence corporate overlay in total disregard for the US Constitution.
All Sheriffs and legal fiction enforcers singularly operate on United Nations legal presence artificial persons. It is simply by treating the human beings as surety for the legal presence -rather than its authorized representative- that these corporate policy enforcers assume what they do…. And it’s merely a legal fiction written on a piece of paper by their UN Administrator pretending to be a judge executed by Order Followers.
The most accurate definition of the United States -after 1945- is the United Nations is doing business as the United States. The United States is a costume, a mask, a corporation, that the United Nations wears. The United States is a UN Member-Nation de facto Corporate Franchise. It manages the 57 Federal State Franchises and the separate 50 Incorporated State Franchises.
The United States Driver’s Licenses, Passports, Social Security, Selective Service, Naturalization Papers, and even Death Certificates are each separate United Nations authorized and issued Legal presences. The base level Legal presence appears to be the Birth Certificate which enters people into the legal slavery control matrix of the United Nations.
The United States is merely a United Nations corporation -with no more power nor authority than Walmart, Kmart, McDonalds, or Federal Express.
The power of the UN over the United States is so vast, that the United Nations has taken over all of New York City right beneath our noses. New York City is the fourth sovereign city state besides the Vatican City, City of London, and the City of Washington, District of Columbia. New York City United Nations is the franchiser of member-nation corporations and all things legal.
It creates the framework of rights abuses by member-nations via legal presences. The UN is at legal war against humanity run by the Secretary-General Trustee. For a restoration of the United States and the constitution, the UN would absolutely need to be dissolved. War is the business of the United Nations doing business as the United States.
The People of the Republic for the United States of America do not now, nor have we ever supported any intent of over-throwing the corporation acting as the de facto United States government. We advocate peaceful, non-violent methods to restore and maintain a republican form of governance as guaranteed by the constitution. We will never advocate or take part in the kidnapping of, or violence against, any public official; nor do we affiliate with any hate groups; nor would we participate in any terrorist attack against the U.S. corporate government or any public or private official. We love our fellow man, America, its People and the Republic for which our flag stands. We believe that the rule of law should be applied justly and equally to all, both small and great without regard to race, gender, color, financial status, handicap, or religious affiliation. In short, we believe in treating our fellow man as we would like to be treated. We show tolerance and respect toward corporate law enforcement officers even when those officers, through lack of knowledge, may violate or infringe upon our unalienable rights. We are not tax protesters or “Sovereign Citizens” as defined by the UNITED STATES and Homeland Security. We believe in conducting the business of Republic governance in the open, not in secret meetings. We hold that the People intend to thoroughly research the Law and the intent of the founders. We are willing to assist the corporate local, state, or national leaders, such as governors, congressmen, senators or representatives in coming to a clearer understanding of their constitutional duties and obligations to the American People.
