由民主黨控制約眾院提出要調查司法部和FBI是否涉及公器私用，利用司法部和FBI作為政黨工具。
這件事正炒得很熱，對司法部和FBI對川普抄家的文件起訴有變數。因為根据法律權威說起訴川普成功率不高，但如同樣罪名起許拜登則幾乎肯定入罪。
Trump responds to Biden classified document discovery, asks when FBI will raid his ‘many homes’
Tue, January 10, 2023
Former President Trump responded Monday to the breaking news that the Justice Department is reviewing classified documents from President Biden’s tenure as vice president that were found last fall in a private office Biden had previously used.
“When is the FBI going to raid the many homes of Joe Biden, perhaps even the White House? These documents were definitely not declassified,” Trump said on his Truth Social account, sharing an article on the document discovery from CBS News.
The Obama-Biden era documents were found by the president’s attorneys while clearing out an office he used when he served as an honorary professor at the University of Pennsylvania’s Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement in Washington, according to Biden’s special counsel Richard Sauber.
Biden’s legal team notified the National Archives, which took possession of the materials, Sauber said. The documents are now reportedly being looked at by the U.S. attorney general for Chicago, with cooperation from the White House.
Trump was referring to the FBI’s execution of a search warrant last summer at his Mar-a-Lago residence, where investigators found more than a hundred classified documents kept past his time in the White House.
Trump is now under investigation for his handling of the classified materials.
“We were told for months that this was treasonous… grounds for impeachment… & meriting the death penalty, yet I have a feeling nothing will happen!?” wrote Trump’s son Donald Trump Jr. on Twitter, retweeting the CBS article.
Notably, Biden’s team notified the Archives and turned over the documents upon discovery, while Trump apparently kept classified materials even after requests from the Archives to return them.
The Presidential Records Act requires that presidential and vice presidential records be turned over to the National Archives at the end of a given administration for preservation and to protect classified material.
Grand jury in Georgia delivers report on Trump, charges could come in next few months

A Georgia special grand jury investigating Donald Trump’s efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election in that state has delivered its report to local judges, paving the way for Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis to potentially bring criminal charges against the former president and some of his allies in the next few months.
The special grand jury completed its work late last year after taking testimony from dozens of witnesses — including some, such as former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows and Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., who never testified before the House committee investigating Jan. 6, 2021. But Willis never subpoenaed Trump himself to testify, apparently concluding that it would needlessly bog down her investigation with legal motions and other court challenges from the former president.
Willis herself is expected to get a copy of the report sometime on Monday. The Fulton County judge overseeing the case, Robert McBurney, filed an order Monday morning with the court declaring that the special grand jury — which had been convened at Willis’s request and began taking testimony last June — had completed its work.

McBurney also scheduled a hearing for Jan. 24, to determine if portions of the report or the entire document can be made public. Under Georgia law, special grand juries such as the one Willis convened can conduct investigations and make recommendations about whether to bring criminal charges. But for such charges to be formally filed, Willis will have to present the evidence to a regular grand jury — a process that could take several more months.
“This is a major milestone,” Norm Eisen, a Brookings Institution fellow who served as an adviser to the House Judiciary Committee during the first impeachment of Trump, told Yahoo News. “I think it’s safe to say that charges are likely — but not certain — against Trump and a single-digit number of co-conspirators.”
At a minimum, Willis’s probe appears to be on a faster track than a broader U.S. Justice Department investigation into Trump’s conduct relating to the 2020 presidential election and the events of Jan. 6. That investigation is now being overseen by a special counsel, Jack Smith, appointed by Attorney General Merrick Garland. (Smith, who had been serving as an international war crimes prosecutor in the Hague, only recently returned to the United States following his recuperation from a bicycle accident.)

Willis has strongly hinted that she was examining whether to use Georgia’s broad racketeering law to bring conspiracy charges against Trump and his allies. Like many other details in the special grand jury’s still-secret report, it is not clear whether the grand jurors themselves recommended that approach.
But Eisen said it is not a surprise that Willis chose not to call Trump before the special grand jury. “We all know that Trump would never have he said. “So why bother?”
評 : 民主黨深層政府用盡洪荒之力，企圖打擊川普使其不能在2024年競選總統。其中之一陰謀大計是對川普進行刑事起訴，指控他企圖推翻2020總統大選。筆者認為深層政府這企圖極有可能弄巧反拙，搬石砸自已腳。川普團隊掌握吨計證據民主黨在是次選舉作弊，並因此向法院進行多次起訴，但司法部及法院包括最高法院均受民主黨深層政府控制，全部不受理川普的訴訟。
這次民主黨深層政府如對川普起訴，正中川普下懷，川普之前苦無機會，現可利用這次機會反告拜登舞弊，並搬出大量證據和證人作證。這些證據確鑿，鐵證如山，真相將會大白天下，民主黨反讓上天助川普，幫了川普大忙。
