Of course Donald never mentioned declassifying documents, when you can get things done telepathically are you going to crawl when you can walk?

There will be no mass protests or riots when Donald goes on trial, even in Georgia and DC would be suicide, they would be waiting for them! There will be stochastic domestic terrorism as the nuts fall from the tree while the big wind blows, but that's about it. There will be nut cases carrying Trump flags in front of the courthouse, but they are likely to be matched by the lock him up crowd. If anywhere is circus it will be in Georgia, trials are on TV there and by the time Donald gets to his trial in Georgia he might already be convicted in DC over J6 and appear while in custody.

It just occurred to me that if Donald is already convicted in DC when he shows up for trial in Georgia, will he have to spend his time during the trial there in the Fulton Co Jail? I mean he should be in federal custody by the time the much larger Georgia conspiracy case comes to trial, do they turn him over to Georgia temporarily until he is tried and sentenced, or do they "keep" him somewhere in federal custody for the court during his trial?

I expect Donald will breech the conditions of his release and will have to be incarcerated anyway, where is the question. I'm sure the federal BOP will be prepared for Donald's imminent arrival and are planning on how to deal with the hot potato now.

Trump attorney Jenna Ellis asks why MAGA PAC isn’t paying for her Georgia defense
Trump-aligned attorney Jenna Ellis, one of the 18 co-defendants in the former president’s Georgia 2020 election interference trial, publicly questioned Monday why the super PAC MAGA Inc. is not paying for her defense.

“I was reliably informed Trump isn’t funding any of us who are indicted,” Ellis wrote in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter. “Would this change if he becomes the nominee? Why then, not now? I totally agree this has become a bigger principle than just one man. So why isn’t MAGA, Inc. funding everyone’s defense?”

Ellis was responding to a separate post from Matt Schlapp, the chairman of the American Conservative Union, who wrote, “The sooner we unify behind a nominee that sooner we can use recourses to fund the defense of everyone indicted for being a Trump Republican.”

Ellis faces two charges in Georgia over her part in former President Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election: racketeering, which every defendant in the case is charged with, and socializing a public officer to violate their oath in connection with her attendance at a Dec. 3 Georgia Senate Judiciary Subcommittee hearing.

Earlier this year, she admitted in court to making false statements about the 2020 presidential election, leading a judge to issue a public censure.

“The parties agree that Respondent, through her conduct, undermined the American public’s confidence in the presidential election, violating her duty of candor to the public,” Bryon Large, Colorado’s presiding disciplinary judge, wrote in his opinion in March.
The Hill reached out to MAGA Inc. for comment.

Trump, who is seeking to return to the White House next year, has made headlines over his use of campaign funds to pay his mounting legal fees. According to campaign finance filings published at the end of last month, Trump’s joint fundraising committee reported raising nearly $54 million during the first half of 2023. The filings also show Trump’s political committees spent roughly $25 million on legal fees in the same period.
