NBC News ... reveals that Trump’s former Homeland Security Chief of Staff Miles Taylor just revealed that even Trump’s own inner circle was deeply worried because Trump exposed classified information to reporters.... NBC reports that “the incident Taylor describes suggests that his aides still believed he needed to show more care toward state secrets — an issue that landed him in legal peril after he left office and took sensitive records with him."...
NBC also reports that, “During his time in office, some senior aides worried about Trump’s treatment of state secrets. In an interview, former National Security Adviser John Bolton said that when Trump would get briefings, aides would 'show him graphics, and that’s where the danger came of him grabbing something and keeping it,. Asking Trump to return material he’d been given wasn't so easy. He’s the president of the United States,' Bolton said. 'Are you supposed to say, ‘Mr. President, let’s be clear. We don’t trust you. Give us the document back.’ .... Even worse, according to the report, Taylor also alleges that Trump asked his staffers if they could wiretap his aides to figure out who was speaking to the press.
After investigating and interviewing Rudy Giuliani about his role in litigation to challenge the 2020 election, an ad hoc hearing committee within the D.C. Appeals Board on Professional Responsibility has recommended that his loss of law license be permanent. The Bar panel’s report is devastating and direct in addressing the former NYC Mayor’s role in attacking the U.S. elections process. The panel concludes that he should be disbarred for “prosecuting that destructive case” in Pennsylvania, where he falsely claimed to have evidence of election misconduct. The committee had already expressed similar sentiments in December after completing its investigation but has now issued a formal statement with its recommendations.
