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.

    Buddy, did you read too many Solider of Fortune old magazines? Spend too much time rereading Turner Diaries?

    Take an objective look at the US police state. You’re talking about backwood Missouri or Kentucky or some shit. Why? That’s irrelevant, not that I think your shit holds water there anyway, but Trump would be arrested in one of three places only: NYC, DC, or his place in Mar a laga in FL. Perhaps a courthouse nearby in any of those general locations. Out of all those, FL is the only one with any substantial amount of LOCKED AND LOADED PATRIOTS BROTHER ™️. If the hogs want to try to take on DC or NYC I actually encourage them. Either side who loses I will get to laugh my ass off. But it will obviously be the cops with their infinite budgets not the 55 year old guy who drives his 4wheeler out to hunt deer and has neevr stepped foot in NYC or DC- also that guy sure as shit ain’t going to either of those cities to save some dumbass rich guy. People in general are shittalkers and never walkers. The hogs are the biggest of those types. They cannot even fanthom walking their talk. These are the guys stroking out every time Hunter is briefly mentioned or they see some fake shit about China meanwhile they’re fully cucked to US corporations. They are entirely incapable of doing anything.

    But even just focusing on FL since it’s the only relevant hotspot. What are they gonna do? If 20 of these guys showed up, and that’s generous, the FBI will just pull in 100 armed feds. Fuck the FL state police and fuck anything Meatball Ron might consider doing, they’ll just swarm the area with their alpha-hogs and dare the militia dudes to give them a reason to do what they’ve been wanting to do for two decades and just wipe their little asses from this world.

    There’s not, never has been and never will be any possibility of any of these weird KKK, neoNazi, whatever else racist shit groups standing against the kings of all that stuff: the police. The police happily protect these types all the time but hogs are hogs and police are the alpha hogs. If those little fatboy hoglets step up to them and try to challenge their authority to do whatever they’re doing we all know how it goes down.

    The entire idea is laughable on the surface. Please, use your brain.

        On the feds behalf, you seem to have mistaken malicious intent and negligence for a lack of competence and intelligence. Cops fit the bill, but the feds are not stupid, they have got better shit to deal with.
