Anxiety surges as Donald Trump may be indicted soon: Why 2024 is 'the final battle' and 'the big one'​

Anxiety surges as Donald Trump may be indicted soon: Why 2024 is 'the final battle' and 'the big one'

Donald Trump's many legal problems – and calls for protests – have generated new fears of political violence and anxiety about the 2024 election.

www.yahoo.com

WASHINGTON – It looks like American politics is entering a new age of anxiety, triggered by an unprecedented legal development: The potential indictment of a former president and current presidential candidate.

Donald Trump's many legal problems – and calls for protests by his followers – have generated new fears of political violence and anxiety about the unknowable impact all this will have on the already-tense 2024 presidential election

I’ll reframe this is a more accurate way, Are Presidents above the law? This new age was spurred into existence when home grown dummies elected a corrupt, mentally ill, anti-democratic, would be dictator as President and don’t bother to hold him responsible for his crimes, don’t want to because in the ensuing mayhem and destruction, they think they will be better off. The man is actually advocating violence (not the first time). And btw, screw democracy too. If this feeling spreads, we are In deep shirt.

This goes beyond one treasonous Peice of work and out to all his minions. This is on you or should we be sympathetic to the idea of they can’t help being selfish suckers to the Nation’s detriment? Donald Trump is the single largest individual threat to our democracy and it‘s all going to boil down to will the majority of the GOP return to his embrace and start slinging his excrement to support him?

Agreed. But the government could still try to shut down sites by labeling them as sources of “misinformation.” Whether that tactic would hold up in the Supreme Court is anyone’s guess. The Court has already allowed other blatantly unconstitutional actions to stand — so at this point, nothing can be ruled out.

They could take those actions and I acknowledge it would be a problem. I just think the backlash would defeat them just like it did with prohibition. Another thing that would defeat them can be seen in the fight against piracy sites. Eliminating piracy sites has been a losing battle, because for every site that gets pulled down or blocked several others pop up. It's like if when playing whack-a-mole every time you whacked-a-mole several others popped up instead of just one.

Even if they could successfully block sites, people could share the information person-to-person/peer-to-peer through strongly encrypted private messaging apps and torrents. They could share it through offshore based encrypted cloud storage services as well. They could also share it in online gaming and virtual reality worlds. Then all of that information can be shared in person with other people via phones, tablets and/or computers. The good thing about suppressed information is that people believe it and find it 100% credible, so any shared information would have an increased impact.

It’s a NARA facility in College Park Maryland.

The National Archives at College Park, Maryland

We hold permanent records created by Federal agencies that include: Textual records from civilian agencies Army unit records dating from WW1 Navy unit records dating from WW2 Still pictures Electronic records Cartographic and architectural holdings Motion picture, sound, and video records JFK...

www.archives.gov

“The National Archives at College Park(also known as "Archives II") is a major facility of the National Archives and Records Administration of the United States which is located in College Park, Maryland. The facility serves as the primary base of operations for the bulk of the senior offices[1] within the organization of the National Archives. The facility operates in tandem with the National Archives Buildingin Washington, D.C. which serves as the ceremonial[1] headquarters of the National Archives in that this is where the Archivist of the United States maintains their primary office.”


It’s to stop drop in off the street traffic. The legit business need is research. They have a very controlled process in place for people with a need to access the records they store.

Pakistan has announced its intention to recommend Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, citing his role in de-escalating the recent conflict between India and Pakistan.

The accolade is one President Trump has openly expressed a desire for, having previously lamented a perceived lack of credit for his diplomatic efforts.

The nomination stems from President Trump's intervention in May, which saw a surprise ceasefire announcement bring an abrupt end to a four-day confrontation between the nuclear-armed neighbours.

President Trump has since repeatedly claimed that his actions averted a nuclear war and saved millions of lives.……..

Nothing in the link you provided and quoted says "it's to stop drop in off the street traffic," "the legit business need is research," or "they have a very controlled process in place." Once again you're pedaling bullshirt that you're trying to fool people into thinking is fact.

And once again, you shot your own bullshirt cover story and excuse in the foot. If they already have "a very controlled process in place" then they wouldn't have a problem with "drop in off the street traffic" and they wouldn't need to suddenly and severely restrict access. They're doing this because they're panicked about getting exposed. This won't stop them from getting exposed.

You're really, really bad at trying to make excuses for and give cover to tyrant Trump and your fellow supporters. By all means, please keep shoveling, because you're constantly doing much more damage than damage control. Nobody who isn't already a diehard member of team tyrant Trump is going to buy what you're shoveling, but you are sending more folks who are on the fence over to the light side and away from the dark side.

Bull shirt. They could make it available to the public and still stop “drop in off the street traffic”. That doesn’t even make any sense.

Why do you excuse everything this admin does?

Another setback for tyrant Trump.

A federal judge on Tuesday blocked Republican President Donald Trump's administration from eliminating union bargaining for hundreds of thousands of federal workers at 21 agencies.
U.S. District Judge James Donato in San Francisco agreed with the American Federation of Government Employees and other unions that Trump's March 27 executive order exempting many federal agencies from obligations to bargain with unions was likely illegal.

Everything that can be turned into money for Trump, is for sale. Including pardoning criminals and costing the state millions in lost fines and leaves victims of crimes without the compensation that the courts awarded them.

Imagine if Biden had pardoned done the same? He would have been impeaches within hours

dengxiaopeng 15 hours ago | parent | prev | next [–] My partner works for NARA, but not in this office. Outside of the large amount of departures and RIF actions taken for the agency, there's lots of challenges regarding staffing for people who come in off the street and do not have succinct, coherent research questions. Staff are duty-bound to respond to all queries, regardless of how good they are. I imagine this research card policy does two things: 1. Raises an easy bureaucratic barrier for people who just drop in and expect/demand help 2. Gives staff an opportunity to refuse access to people who may have non-research intent from accessing the building It's likely the example you provided qualifies as a business need. They just don't want you hanging around and getting in the way of them helping people who scheduled a consultation, have an appointment, etc. Totally agree on the poorly-constructed sentence. I wish they had said it more succinctly/precisely.” National Archives at College Park, MD, will become a restricted federal facility | Hacker News news.ycombinator.com

Researcher Access to Archives 2 (College Park, Maryland) is Not Changing​

From what I have seen on FaceBook this evening, June 24, NARA added some language to the Archives 2 webpage at https://www.archives.gov/college-park that caused a great deal of consternation today. While I believe that NARA was trying to be proactive, the language in question was very poorly worded, and therefore resulted in a lot of undue anxiety and (likely) anger. The problem language has been removed, so far as I can tell. The poor language stated, in part:

“Effective July 7, 2025, the National Archives at College Park, MD, will become a restricted-access federal facility with access only for visitors with a legitimate business need. It will no longer be open to the general public….”

“Most genealogists and other researchers consider themselves to be members of “the general public” so it is very easy to understand the consternation that this statement created.
I am not employed by NARA, but please understand: Doing research in records at Archives 2 is still a valid reason for any person to go to Archives 2. No change.
What was that statement all about, then? Do random people (who don’t plan on doing research) randomly find their way to Archives 2 with the idea of entering the building? It has probably has happened. (Again, mere speculation: I have no knowledge.) There are no exhibits or museum areas for people to visit at Archives 2, so there is nothing for random people to do, except eat in the cafeteria.
Breathe. Stand down from red alert.”

Nobody is arguing about researchers, although I would question who gets to say who is a researcher and who is not. What I am saying is that these records used to be available to anyone who went through their process and now they are evidently closing that access. Is that not true?

What if I am an amateur historian and wish to have access? I am reading that will no longer be allowed.

And the wording of “business” use is quite strange if we are talking about academic research.

This admin has earned every bit of skepticism that is headed their way. They lie about everything.

I still haven’t read then what their language actually means, just speculation from someone who isn’t involved.

dengxiaopeng ...

First, no one should believe any anonymous post on a message board without supporting what they say with a known, credible source. This is basically like quoting a user post from Reddit as evidence or support of something. It's no surprise that Sendai found an anonymous poster that repeated almost exactly what they said. I'm a little surprised that they found it on a incubator's website in their Hackers News forum.

There's still an internal logic issue with the argument both Sendai and whoever dengxiaopeng is. They both say that that NARA already have a very controlled process and an issue with people coming in off the street. Those are contradictory statements which undermine both Sendai's and dengxiaopeng's credibility on this issue.

Last observation, this must be a really big deal to tyrant Trump, otherwise why try to defend and excuse it. To me, that confirms tyrant Trump is doing this to hide something. They're panicked about something, so we the American people should do everything we can to continue to pressure them on this issue. I have no doubt someone is going to challenge this move in court.
