Justice Department nears possible indictment of former President Trump

MAHMOUD BENNETT:

THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT IS MOVING CLOSER TO A POSSIBLE INDICTMENT OF FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP OVER HIS MISHANDLING OF CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS 

PROSECUTORS REPORTEDLY ISSUING THE TRUMP TEAM WITH A LETTER WEDNESDAY – INDICATING HE IS *THE* TARGET OF A CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION

OFFICIALS HAVE BEEN LOOKING INTO THE MORE THAN 100 CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS THAT WERE SEIZED FROM THE INFAMOUS SEARCH AT TRUMP’S MAR-A-LAGO HOME IN FLORIDA LAST YEAR … US LAW MAKES IT ILLEGAL FOR FEDERAL OFFICIALS TO REMOVE OR RETAIN DOCUMENTS AT AN UNAUTHORIZED LOCATION – *TRUMP HAS REPEATEDLY DENIED ANY WRONGDOING*

WHILE TRUMP HAS STOOD FIRM IN HIS CLAIM THAT HE HAS THE PRESIDENTIAL AUTHORITY TO DECLASSIFY DOCUMENTS – TAPE RECORDINGS RECENTLY REVIEWED BY CNN REPORTEDLY CAPTURE TRUMP ACKNOWLEDGING HE *ONE* KEPT A CLASSIFIED PENTAGON DOCUMENT AND *TWO* THAT HE WAS AWARE OF HIS LIMITED ABILITY TO DECLASSIFY DOCUMENTS

THAT STORY BROKE IN THE LAST WEEK OF MAY AND AS YOU CAN SEE ON OUR MEDIA MISS TOOL IT WAS MOSTLY BEING REPORTED ON BY CENTER AND LEFT LEANING NEWS OUTLETS .. RIGHT LEANING MEDIA UNDERREPORTED THE STORY .. WE’RE MAKING THAT CLEAR SO YOU CAN JUST STRAIGHT PERSPECTIVE ON A STORY ONE SIDE MAY NEGLECT

RIGHT NOW THERE’S TWO FEDERAL GRAND JURIES HEARING THE EVIDENCE AROUND TRUMP’S CASE – ONE IN WASHINGTON AND ONE IN MIAMI

THE NYTIMES REPORTS THE JURY IN WASHINGTON HAS HEARD FROM NUMEROUS WITNESSES RANGING FROM LOW LEVEL WORKERS AT MAR A LAGO TO MORE THAN 20 MEMBERS OF TRUMP’S SECRET SERVICE DETAIL 

MEANWHILE THE GRAND JURY IN MIAMI HAS ALSO HEARD FROM NUMEROUS WITNESSES INCLUDING A FORMER TRUMP AIDE THIS PAST WEDNESDAY – 

THE AP REPORTS TRUMP’S LEGAL TEAM MET WITH DOJ OFFICIALS TO ARGUE AGAINST HIS INDICTMENT, THEY’RE ALLEGING PROSECUTORIAL MISCONDUCT … AND TRUMP HIMSELF HAS TAKEN TO SOCIAL MEDIA – SLAMMING THE CASE ALONG WITH THE NUMEROUS OTHER INVESTIGATIONS HE CURRENTLY FACES… 

SHOULD CHARGES BE BROUGHT TRUMP’S FORMER ATTORNEY SAYS IT WOULD ALL GO DOWN IN FLORIDA

WHILE SOME EXPERTS SPECULATE AN INDICTMENT DECISION COULD BE REACHED IN THE COMING WEEKS – THERE IS NO SET DATE .. IF AN INDICTMENT IS MADE HOWEVER IT WOULD BE TRUMP’S SECOND INDICTMENT ON THE TRAIL AS HE RUNS FOR A SECOND TERM IN THE WHITE HOUSE …
