Trump Lawyers Falsely Claim in Court Filing that FBI & Senate Committee Cleared Trump Re: Jan 6

[Justice matters.]

Glenn Kirschner

In connection with Donald Trump's lawsuit trying to prevent the National Archives form turning over potentially damning evidence, Trump lawyers just filed a brief falsely suggesting that both the FBI and a Senate Committee have cleared him of all wrongdoing in connection with the insurrection.

First, the presiding judge, Tanya Chutkan, undoubtedly will press Trump's lawyers on these false claims.

Second, although the FBI generally does not comment on pending investigations, this false assertion of exoneration should be addressed by the FBI, as FBI silence will be interpreted as affirmation of Trump's false claims.

Third, there are serious consequences should the Department of Justice fail to charge Donald Trump for his crimes in connection with the insurrection.

We haven't seen any report about a FBI statement saying the orange terrorist has been cleared of anything about his insurrection right? (I didn't see any.)

Why Lawyers keep making themselves look like absolute fools while never getting paid for their work is beyond comprehension!

1. The 2nd Impeachment. ..

although I think this will not apply.

2. I've seen the GQP's report from the Senate Judiciary Committee but not one from the FBI.

The Democrats's report from the Senate Judiciary Committee was clear and damning.

Did the FBI issue a report during the 2nd impeachment? (I didn't see any.)

3. Have they learned nothing?

Have they learned nothing about their high profile cohorts being censured and disbarred for holding forth about trump? Lying their asses off, and easily disproved hogwash.
