Today is Monday, June 5, 2023. For those who are anxiously twiddling their fingers and waiting for a second Dumpf indictment, I have it on good standing that an actual Dumpf indictment could come this week, according to a legal expert familiar with the case. This understanding appears in an online article for RawStory by Sarah K. Burns entitled “Trump indictment will come this week because the DOJ is feeling ‘internal pressure’: legal expert.”

That legal adviser is MSNBC contributor and former FBI general counsel and special counsel prosecutor Andrew Weissmann who said today that he thinks the indictment of Donald Trump will occur this week because the Department of Justice (DOJ) is being pressured to move forward. The DOJ should be pressured to move things forward; who wants this son of a bitch to be first indicted in 2024? It could be too late if the event coincides with the actual election. It must be done before, not later.

This prediction by Weissmann was part of a conversation with MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace about the possible venue for trial if Dumpf is indicted – Florida or Washington, D.C. Many of us probably don’t care where the demagogue will be prosecuted – as long as he’s charged is what’s spurring us on.

The legal expert revealed he expected Dumpf to be charged in Florida and not D.C., but as he said, “But I do think the one thing I’m pretty confident is that we are going to see charges with respect to the classified documents case, and what seems by all accounts it’s going to be this week because I think that DOJ will feel that internal pressure to bring this along.”

A harbinger than that this case is coming to an end is that Dumpf’s lawyers met with the DOJ today to plead their case not to indict their client. Let’s hope that Jack Smith will just snarl in their faces and indicate the indictment must go ahead as planned. The reports from other sources is that the counselors for the twice-impeached, sexual abuser, and once-indicted former president looked not too happy after meeting DOJ officials for just under two hours.

Another indication that an indictment is definitely forthcoming is the fucking rant that Dumpf wrote on his ridiculously worded “Truth” Social. He resorted to his abysmal style of all-caps in writing his sophomoric prose. This means he is certainly desperate and running scared. Let him; maybe he’ll have a very bad night tonight, knowing that he will soon be charged for federal crimes.

Another source saying that Dumpf will be indicted imminently is a former prosecutor in the Watergate scandal that took down President Richard M. Nixon, Jill Wine-Banks, who is also a contributor to MSNBC and is attributed as stating that the former president was about to face the music himself in the classified documents scandal now at the heart of a federal investigation. This new prediction appears in an online article for HuffPost by Ed Mazza entitled ‘I Think He’s Toast’: Watergate Prosecutor Says Trump Case Is Now ‘So Strong.'”

This new source pronouncing that Dumpf will face charges soon in the federal investigation says, “The case is so strong. You cannot imagine his getting away with this. I’m wearing a toast pin [Wine-Banks is known to wear pins to commemorate certain cultural events on the network] today because I think he’s toast.”

Wine-Banks said she believes the grand jury had already heard the incriminating audio recording of Dumpf in which he admitted he had classified documents in his possession. The former president also reportedly acknowledged in the recording that those documents had not been declassified.

“There’s nothing as compelling as hearing a defendant in a criminal case say words that show his criminality,” she said. She continued, “And these words certainly show that he knew that he hadn’t declassified documents that he still retained.”

The only defense here for the big mouth former president is that he’s lying on the tape, but as Wine-Banks indicated, this claim probably wouldn’t fly, given all the other evidence against the former commander-in-grief.

In anticipation of these legal experts’ dire predictions is that special counsel Jack Smith is reconvening the grand jury hearing the case this week after new revelations surfaced over the last several weeks regarding Dumpf’s continuing misuse of sensitive national material. So only time will tell if a new indictment will indeed be handed down here. Let’s see if this doesn’t happen by Friday of this week.

Tomorrow I will be attending a second gay men’s reading club discussion in the Village, along with Elliot, even though he hasn’t even read this month’s book: James Baldwin’s Go Tell It on the Mountain. I might be at a disadvantage myself since I read it so long ago (I finished it early in May) and have forgotten most of it. Whoo boy! I did print a synopsis of the book sometime ago and I’ll take it with me to the meeting.

So I might not be writing here in this space, depending on how tired I am after the meeting. Usually, we all go out after the discussion to some bar where I’ll order a cranberry juice or some other nonalcoholic drink.

Stay safe and be well.
