Previews can be expected next year with the expected Democratic grab of a House Majority….
What comes around?
Goes around ….
And Trump & Co. HAS Uped the anti….
Things WILL be a bit More Serious….
There sure is enough to look into, eh?
House Democrats want 2029 to be the year of reckoning for Trump administration officials.
Democrats have long accused top members of President Trump’s team of violating laws across a wide range of activities, from deadly immigration raids and strikes on alleged drug boats, to financial self-dealing and targeting Trump’s political enemies for prosecutions.
The Department of Justice (DOJ) has not pursued those cases, the Democrats contend, only because the president’s loyalists control the agency. In many cases, they say, the DOJ itself is guilty of the wrongdoing.
But Trump won’t be in power forever. And while the Supreme Court has granted immunity to presidents, shielding Trump from prosecutions related to his time in office, the dispensation does not extend to other administration officials. With that in mind, Democrats are already clamoring for the next administration, Democratic or Republican, to launch investigations into Trump officials — and prosecute them in cases of demonstrated criminal wrongdoing.
“This is stiff competition to see who is the leading crook,” Rep. Juan Vargas (D-Calif.) said….
…
“Before we start calling something a crime or making use of these legal terms that actually have very important meanings, we need to investigate,” he said. “We need to do what Congress has declined to do for the last 16 months.”
But he also warned that Democrats have no intention of waiting until the next president takes power to launch the process. The party has a good chance of flipping control of the House in November’s midterms. Afterwards, he said, the investigations into Trump and his top officials will begin immediately.
“We’re not going to wait for a new administration. We’re going to kick right into oversight and investigation mode. It’s urgent,” Huffman said. “But it’s a long list; we’re going to be very busy.”
The idea of potentially prosecuting Trump officials after Trump leaves office is coming from the very top of the Democrats’ leadership ladder, where House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (N.Y.) has been warning for the better part of a year that administration officials shouldn’t expect leniency from future administrations if they’ve committed crimes in office….
…
Trump has jokingly said he intends to offer preemptive pardons to virtually everyone associated with his administration.
“I’ll pardon everyone who has come within 200 feet of the Oval,” he told staff in April, according to The Wall Street Journal.
Democrats say that won’t discourage their investigations…
Note….
Trump IS sure to issue TONS of pardons as he leaves office…..
No matter what anyone says….
A Presidential pardon IS a Pardon….
A Good ‘Get out of jail Free Pass’
They ARE bullet proof ….
And we KNOW Donald takes care of his cohorts…
Democrats will have ‘field day’ with Trump inquiries if they win House, legal experts say
Donald Trump’s presidency is facing investigations and corruption charges from a key House Democrat and ex-prosecutors, involving political and personal abuses of power, which legal experts predict will get heavy scrutiny if Democrats win the House majority in the midterms.
Legal critics call the scandals dogging the president “target rich” for investigations that Democrats will have a “field day” investigating if they win the House majority. Critics cite, for instance, Trump’s damaging the rule of law by weaponizing the Department of Justice (DoJ) to exact revenge on political foes and protect himself from federal investigations, plus Trump moves to profit in radical ways from his presidency with lucrative and new cryptocurrency ventures….
Democrats Are Seizing on Trump’s Soaring Wealth
Wall Street Journal: “Democrats see an opportunity. Spurred on by a restive base, they are casting the president’s growing in-office wealth as corruption and a sign he has lost focus on Americans’ finances. A number of Democratic candidates are now pivoting their campaign messages and vowing to combat such behavior.”
“To many voters, Trump’s personal wealth has long added credibility to his claim that he could make America wealthy, too. But now, Democrats say the public’s sour view of the economy creates an opening to turn his recent wealth-building into a liability for his party.”
