All of this ***BREAKING*** news about the security aide recanting false testimony

Could have and should have been avoided - kept out of the public’s mind and away from the media

The GOP is going to spin and use this as “one more example of the corrupt judicial system prosecution”…. Remember that this all would have been avoided had the biased and corrupt Cannon not struck the sealed filings by Smith (this very same info supporting his requested Garcia hearing).


Cannon needs to 1) quit relying on Fox News for information; and 2) wise up and realize Smith plays by the rules.

Thing is that the Slobfather knew about this since July with the additional indictment. Why would this be kept secret?

what a few retired federal prosecutors seem to have hinted at. Mr. Smithh added the icing to the cake.

Ari has been showing some great film clips of roger stone. The one of him packing his bags when he saw the operation was underway was actually shown well before Mr. Smith was on the case. I had mentioned it as stone's attempt to leave "proof" he wasn't involved. A while later, I looked for it on the internet, but it had disappeared -- or perhaps my lack of computer skills hid it.

There can be no legitimate accusations of corruption on the part of prosecutors.

I also believe these flips should all be publicized, to bring on the avalanche.

But recanting testimony should be broadcast from the rooftops! I can’t wait for Donny to “discuss” those “ friends” change in testimony on social media! He won’t be happy and he might say some things 🤣😂

Smith had to explain to Cannon why he kept a grand jury in session after the original indictments; his filing today revealing the flipped employee explains why.

Trump must have know this for awhile, since the change from a Trump lawyer to public defender apparently happened back in July.
