Trump Demanded Documents Back Even After Learning Indictment Coming – Rolling Stone

Last month, Donald Trump’s lawyers told him he was on the cusp of a federal indictment in the classified documents case. But the former president still wanted “my documents” and “my boxes” back, asking some of his lawyers if they could get them from the federal government, according to a source with direct knowledge of the matter and two other people briefed on it.

It’s one of many such conversations Trump has had over the past few months, the sources say. In these conversations, Trump also claimed it was “illegal” that he could no longer have the documents seized in

Revised Trump indictment raises new questions about lawyer conflicts of interest

For Donald Trump, loyalty was always key.

“I value loyalty above everything else,” he once wrote.

It’s a striking reminder for those who now face legal jeopardy for their associations with the former president.

This week, the legal risks for two aides who’ve worked for him in Florida came into sharper view. But their once-overlapping representation is also raising fresh legal and ethics questions based on revelations in the new, or superseding, indictment unsealed Thursday.

The initial indictment charged Trump and his valet, Walt Nauta, but the new indictment involves a third individual — the Mar-a-Lago property manager, Carlos De

These are your payment options for buying legal weed in New York

NEW YORK — Although weed is now legal in 37 U.S. states — including New York — the District of Columbia, Guam and Puerto Rico, it’s still illegal at the federal level.

Several years ago, the American Bankers Association put out a statement, which has been updated a few times since, that says “the possession, distribution
