This also suggests that, as in other legal matters, Trump is making his attorneys take absurd positions that will just make them look bad in the front of the judge. It's one thing to do that in a civil case, but in a criminal case, you might want to listen to your attorneys. https://t.co/MTKGP0wxfg— Secrets and Laws (@secretsandlaws) July 27, 2023

The expanded indictment against Trump includes a detailed and incredibly damning articulation of how his team allegedly tried to bury security footage. I walked through it. https://t.co/E2GA0ZMm7B— Philip Bump (@pbump) July 28, 2023
We now come to one of the most intriguing new parts of the indictment.“Between 1:31 p.m. and 1:50 p.m., DE OLIVEIRA walked through the bushes on the northern edge of The Mar-a-Lago Club property to meet with NAUTA on the adjacent property,” the indictment alleges, “then walked back to the IT office that he had visited that morning; and then walked again through the bushes on the northern edge of The Mar-a-Lago Club property to meet with NAUTA on the adjacent property.”There are a few possible reasons for this weird (alleged) interaction. One is that Nauta was engaged in some activity off the Mar-a-Lago grounds and simply couldn’t come closer to De Oliveira. Another is that Nauta didn’t want to been recorded as having visited Mar-a-Lago that day, either by Secret Service or other employees. Another is that Nauta and De Oliveira — by now very aware that the federal government was interested in movements at the facility — were eager not to be observed. Remember that De Oliveira’s conversation with the IT staffer took place not in the staffer’s office or a hallway but, instead, in a small nearby room.That people can gain access to Mar-a-Lago by slipping through the bushes is, of course, a subject that probably deserves more consideration, too.

In October of last year, the room were the surveillance footage was stored on a server was flooded as the nearby pool was being drained. This was likely after the subpoenaed footage had been turned over to investigators and it doesn’t appear that the server was damaged...the staffer responsible for draining the pool and accidentally flooding the room was none other than Carlos De Oliveira.
This part reminds me of that commercial where the woman tries to trash her ex's beloved SUV by having it pushed off a cliff, but of course the thing rolls over and over and emerges from a cloud of dust unscathed, to the woman's anguished chagrin.

Most states deprive convicted felons of many of their civil rights, including the right to vote. These rights are usually restored upon release, unless you have the misfortune to live in a state like Florida, which in an example of its endless fuckery won't restore them until the felon pays court costs, restitution, etc.
A felony conviction is no bar to running for President of the United States. The Senate could have convicted Trump in the second impeachment and prohibited from ever running for federal office again. Short of that, he'd have to be found to have engaged in rebellion.

that's the trick, you have to stay convicted, then you can do whatever you want. once you stop being convicted is the problem
