I feel like we're going to learn that Trump is happy to share intel on American residents for the tidy sum of $2B.
Yesterday, Trump defended the Saudi Crown Prince in the Oval Office.
He said he had “nothing” to do with the murder of Jamal Khashoggi.
But I reviewed a call while serving on Trump’s NSC that I believe would be of interest to the Khashoggi family and the American people.
Release the transcript.

Sounds like Lindsey Halligan falsely told the Judge that:
"There was no additional presentation, interaction, or discussion with the grand jury outside of what is reflected in the transcript."
But the Grand Jury Coordinator took a revised indictment for the foreperson to sign in the jury room.

In a normal Department of Justice not run by hacks and sycophants and malicious clowns, Lindsey Halligan would resign and the indictment against James Comey would be dismissed.
Halligan should be disbarred. She altered a court document without showing the grand jury.

Lindsey Halligan's confession that she didn't re-present the indictment to the grand jury creates problems even beyond the fact that that likely means there's no indictment.

The Treasury Department has its own Epstein file containing thousands of bank records. My investigators reviewed a portion of those records last year. I've demanded the Secretary Bessent produce the file for further investigation. He has refused repeatedly.
