They are usually given a bonus and asked if to stay on as in 2009. At least in the last eruption of bank failures, Biden ensured they were fired as a pre-condition for a bail out. Even then, some complained.

Let the pretrial motions begin! The trial should take no more than 60 days when it begins, Trump has no defense and is still hanging himself on TV. Is Cannon more loyal to the republican party than Trump, perhaps she takes a fancy to Meatball Ron? A delayed trial would hurt the GOP the most and she appears to be moving things right along, so far. August 14th is set for the trial date, pending pretrial motions and Donald has already gone through a bunch of those before he was indicted. Disposing of Trump early would open up the republican presidential field and increase their chances of winning the election IMO. This is a serious case that could end her career if she fucks it up, there are appeals courts and every legal eye in the country will be focused on this case. Jack might also bring charges in NJ or even DC over the documents and more people than Donald and Nauta could be indicted over it.

The pay off? Kush got 2 billion that we know about, and the Saudis got a 150 billion arms sale, 10% used to be the payoff for facilitating that shit and that means they might owe Donald another 13 billion for the arms deal. Too bad Donald will be in prison, but the PGA could buy his golf courses for a fortune, and he could stiff the Russians for the money he owes them over it. Secret documents would sure grease the wheels of any deals made with MBS and if Trump could have pulled off an American invasion of Iran, so much the better.
I'm surprised Trump never ran for Dubai where he could have lived a life of luxury on stolen secrets copied with a cellphone., too stupid, I guess.

Judge sets Aug. 14 trial date for Trump documents case
A Florida judge has set an initial Aug. 14 trial date for former President Trump in the Justice Department’s (DOJ) case over his retention of classified documents.
Judge Aileen Cannon set the preliminary trial date for roughly two months after Trump’s arraignment at her courtroom in Fort Pierce, Fla. The judge said in a Tuesday filing that all pre-trial motions must be filed by July 24.
Trump and his team are expected to push to delay the trial through those motions, however, making it unlikely that the Aug. 14 date will hold.
Trump pleaded not guilty last Tuesday to charges on 37 counts following a DOJ indictment alleging he violated both the Espionage Act and obstructed justice in taking classified records from his presidency and refusing to return them. He is also facing charges for concealing documents and misleading investigators.
Special counsel Jack Smith has said Trump’s trial could be completed in as little as 21 days.
But Trump — known for successfully delaying numerous prior civil suits — has a number of options for time-eating challenges in the case.
The classified documents at issue in the case ignite a separate discovery process under the Classified Information Procedures Act (CIPA), including a requirement under Section 5 of the law that requires Trump’s team to give a preview of their defense.
“Trump’s team will likely argue that the CIPA Section 5 notice requirement is unconstitutional, because it requires them to give some sort of notice of their defense to the government. That argument has been resoundingly rejected by the courts, but it will still be made by the Trump team,” Brian Greer, a former CIA attorney, previously told The Hill.
Another likely battle is whether the prosecution can use the silent witness rule — a method of having experts testify in broad strokes about the classified records so that they can avoid declassifying them or making them public.
Trump’s team is likely to push to declassify the evidence in the hopes the DOJ will drop some of its charges.
“They will want to put pressure on the government to have to declassify as much information as possible for trial,” Greer said. “If Trump’s lawyers get the court to rule that any document that he is charged with has to be declassified in order to be used at trial, it might cause the Department of Justice to rethink some charges.”
Trump’s legal team will also need to secure clearances ahead of the discovery process, a task that even when expedited will cause delays.
The date set by Cannon falls in line with a defendant’s right to trial within 70 days of arraignment. As Trump’s team files motions that ignite new deadlines, the trial date will get pushed back.
Cannon’s order is the second in the case in as many days; federal Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart sided with the DOJ on Monday in ordering Trump to refrain from disclosing any evidence in the trial. His order also only allows Trump to view the classified discovery in the case under the supervision of his attorneys.

So if someone takes classified documents the DOJ has to drop the charges if the docs are too sensitive to be released to the public? That sounds like Trump World logic.
