BREAKING: Federal Judge RULES AGAINST Trump Executive Privilege Claim In SECRET Criminal Grand Jury



A federal judge overseeing the secret criminal grand jury in Washington DC related to 2020 election interference just ruled against Donald Trump’s assertion of Executive Privilege as part of Trump’s efforts to block the testimony of former Vice President Pence’s former Chief of Staff Marc Short. Trump’s efforts to block the testimony on an appeal was also denied. Marc Short gave full testimony on Thursday 10/13. The denial of Trump’s executive privilege claim will have far reaching implications on the testimony of other witnesses before the grand jury since the ruling will likely also apply to them as well. - Meidas Touch.

Good analogy, LOL. And don't forget Letitia James in New York and Fani Willis in Georgia! This story is far from over...

If he had access to them to use to get his way. His finale would be threatening to take-us-with-him-self-destruction.

And he no longer has his father or his father's money to fall back on to get him out of trouble or to protect him.

Better get used to it 'cause you aren't done losing yet.
