The Calamari Family and the missing video.

Matthew Calamari has been with the Trump Organization for more than forty years. He started working for Donald Trump as a bodyguard and worked his way up to the Chief Operating Officer. His son, Matthew Jr, started working for the Trump security team in 2011 and was named Corporate Director of Security in 2017.

Both were called before the Grand Jury investigating the Mar-a-Lago stolen documents case. It appears that the video tape recording that monitored the storage room where the documents were supposedly "stored" may have been missing some of its content and it appears that was the reason for them being called before the Grand Jury?

It is also being reported that there is an "insider source" that is cooperating with the Special Counsel and the investigation. Also, some were puzzled that the Special Counsel was looking for records about the LIV Golf Organization, owned by the Saudis? What is the connection?

Jack Smith is very interested in the Calamari Family and any role they may have played in the storage or movement of documents at Mar-a-Lago.

Calamari was overly aggressive with a patron. Trump liked that.

Or, Squid Junior? If not, I wouldn't want to be them, because they're probably in it up to their squid eyeballs.
