Legal experts say latest Trump scandal leaves DOJ ‘no choice’ but to indict the former president

Legal experts are weighing in on Wednesday evening's bombshell report in The New York Times that the U.S. Attorney in Atlanta resigned on January 4 rather than be fired by then-President Donald Trump for refusing to say the e******n was r****d and there had been massive v***r f***d, which Trump had been falsely claiming.


Trump had appointed Byung Pak to be the U.S. Attorney in mid 2017. Hours after top DOJ officials either warned or pressured him – or both – on Jan. 3, that he would be fired, Pak sent his letter of resignation to the President. On Wednesday he told the Senate Judiciary Committee what had happened.

"DOJ has no choice now, they must open a criminal investigation on Trump," says attorney Ron Filipkowski, a former Republican turned Democrat, after Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis infamously fired a Health Dept. data analyst.

Former U.S. Attorney Harry Litman, now a constitutional law professor at U.C. San Diego and Los Angeles, calls it "repugnant."


Former Dept. of Defense Special Counsel Ryan Goodman says there is "Mounting evidence of Donald Trump's criminal intent under federal and Georgia state law."


After this latest news Goodman says a "potpourri of criminal provisions potentially apply."

Although I am against the death penalty for all but genocide, I would be happy to make an exception for the Donald, providing I get to press the button.

Yet another sure fire wiz bang prediction of a Trump indictment. You never get tired of being wrong.

You need real help. Get well!

This is nothing but a Democrat hit job and propaganda piece.


What is he calling repugnant? That Ron DeSantis infamously fired a Health Dept. data analyst? And what does this have to do with the U.S Attorney in Atlanta who serves at the pleasure of the President.

This piece was so poorly written it doesn't make any sense.

This story is a nothing burger.

The real upcoming revelation that Trump, as a kid, one time didn't save the wrapper on his bubblegum to dispose the gum properly after he chewed it.

Yep...just wait till that story explodes out of the MSM.

Would you like to sadistically murder his kids in their sleep too?

I'm absolutely sure of it. they put this kind of crap out on a daily basis. They guy who wasn't a very good speller said two years ago that Trump was going to jail, as many other have proclaimed. Just more idle rhetoric that further confirms these people are nuts.
