Espionage Act

- [x] The Espionage Act says the following: ANYONE who “willfully retains…any document, writing, code book, signal book, sketch, photograph, photographic negative, blueprint, plan, map, model, instrument, appliance, or note relating to the national defense, or information relating to the national defense which information the possessor has reason to believe could be used to the injury of the United States or to the advantage of any foreign nation…

- [x] (and fails to deliver it on demand to the officer or employee of the United States entitled to receive it” can be punished by as many as ten years in prison.)

Yo, Maga Republicans, how can you read this and still defend this treasonous traitor?

LOCK HIM UP!

My family and I watched a documentary tonight on DVD made by documentarian Anthony Baxter. It is called "You've Been Trumped." Baxter has made several other documentaries that I have not yet seen.

"You've Been Trumped" is not exactly breaking news if you're aware of his behavior in Scotland over the golf course he was installing there in the mid-2000s, but it is supremely newsworthy. I highly recommend that everyone view it because it shows in high relief how deeply cruel, amoral, sociopathic and vicious he is. It is eye-opening even if you think you've heard it all. Viewing the documentary also brought back to memory the case of Vera Cocking and Trump:

I think that terms like "evil" and "monster" while perhaps overused or misused, truly do apply to him. Even his hulking form in his large black coat blowing behind him in the Scottish wind as he makes his oafish way into camera angles (and asks for a mirror to check his hair or as he "comes on" to a young woman in the group, on camera, standing next to Don Jr. while making inappropriate remarks to the young woman), he looks like the very presence of the wind blowing in an evil presence, like "something wicked this way comes...."

And he did, and he is, still.

"You've Been Trumped" - highly recommend it!

What is also shocking about the documentary is learning how horrifically complicit the Scottish government was and how the public police became Trump's private thug-army.
