America is on “Indictment Watch”<\/em> for the third (and possibly fourth) time in the post-Trump era. Not satisfied with being the first American president to be indicted, Donald Trump is endeavoring to secure his place in history by not just nailing down the first indictment, but also the most.<\/p>\n

On Thursday morning the press reported<\/a><\/strong> that the Grand Jury investigating Trump’s role on the January 6th insurrection, and associated efforts to overthrow the government and subvert democracy, was meeting. The speculation was that they could be ready to announce the latest batch of charges against Trump for criminal violation of least three federal statutes, including deprivation of rights, conspiracy to defraud the U.S., and tampering with a witness. This was not unexpected by legal analysts, or even by Trump himself…<\/p>\n

Trump’s anxious anticipation not withstanding, he immediately rushed to his floundering Twitter ripoff, Truth Social<\/a><\/strong>, to deny that anything was going on. His denial was particularly curious considering that he had already been predicting the imminent indictments. He yelped<\/a> that…<\/p>\n

“My attorneys had a productive meeting with the DOJ this morning, explaining in detail that I did nothing wrong, was advised by many lawyers, and that an Indictment of me would only further destroy our Country. No indication of notice was given during the meeting \u2014 Do not trust the Fake News on anything!”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Well, that should settle the whole matter then. Trump’s attorneys “explained”<\/em> that he “did nothing wrong”<\/em> and that “an Indictment of me would only further destroy our Country.”<\/em> So naturally, special counsel Jack Smith will forthwith drop the case and return to his prior engagement in Switzerland.<\/p>\n

Needless to say, Trump will not be getting off that easy. Smith’s team surely knew already that Trump would claim that he’s innocent. And the threat that his indictment would “further destroy our Country”<\/em> is not only a ludicrous legal argument, it is the complete opposite of reality. Not indicting Trump would be far more dangerous for the country. It would set a precedent for future traitors aspiring to stage a violent coup.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, Trump is just plain lying<\/a><\/strong> about not having been given what he oddly calls an “indication of notice”<\/em> that he will be indicted. As noted above, he explicitly forecast it himself. What’s more, several days ago he acknowledged receiving a target letter from the special counsel, which is a de facto notice of the likelihood of an indictment.<\/p>\n

Additionally, Trump has been begging his congressional cult devotees to rescue him from the legal abyss that he has created for himself. That’s another indication that he knew what was coming. He posted a video imploring<\/a> “Congress, if you will, please investigate the political witch hunts against me currently being brought by the corrupt DOJ and FBI, who are totally out of control. […] Stop them now. Save our country.”<\/em> That’s the same DOJ he is now saying he had a “productive”<\/em> meeting with.<\/p>\n

Of course, anyone with even the slimmest knowledge of government knows that Congress cannot stop a Justice Department investigation. But Trump has never been one to let reality encroach on his delusional perception of the world. So we can expect much more of this sort of silliness going forward.<\/p>\n
