Prosecutors say the former president’s message on Truth Social raises specter he might use evidence to target witnesses.
In a court filing just before 10 p.m. Friday, Senior Assistant Special Counsels Molly Gaston and Thomas Windom alerted the judge in Trump’s latest criminal case — U.S. District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan — to a combative post Trump sent earlier in the day.
“If you go after me, I’m coming after you!” Trump wrote in all caps Friday afternoon on Truth Social, which is run by a media company he co-owns.
The prosecutors said Trump’s post raised concerns that he might improperly share evidence in the case on his social media account and they urged that he be ordered to keep any evidence prosecutors turn over to his defense team from public view.
On the feds behalf, you seem to have mistaken malicious intent and negligence for a lack of competence and intelligence. Cops fit the bill, but the feds are not stupid, they have got better shit to deal with.
