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.

    The problem is that they arent gonna rescue trump. They will just do raids against infrastructure, take out cops that arent with them, local politicians, etc. They are morons, but all it takes is one asshole that knows what to do to make them effective. With republicans hamstringing the government for 50 years, and federal police recently, it would need a counter insurgency from the military.

    I think we should have let Sherman finish the job and listened to him during reconstruction. The south is rising again. We need an “Operation Southern Liberation” and bring democracy to them.

        Sorry I wasn’t clear, we need to do a military intervention so that these fascists in republican clothing can stop weakening our nation by slowly taking away our democracy. They control the voting in a manner that they can maintain majority in their fiefdom state which sends those assholes to congress.
