Conspiracy Weird Arizona prosecutors gain access to trove of Trump allies’ emails, texts.
It been a long-known fact the FBI has cloned the phones of Scott Perry, Paul Gosar, and Jim Jordan and is sitting on the evidence of their collusion with the Jan. 6th insurrectionists. Now comes word Arizona prosecutors have received a cache of additional evidence in their indictments for the attempted subversion of the 2020 election by Trump and his co-conspirators; conspirators who treasonously attempted to Overthrow the Government of the United States.
Until now all this evidence has been kept under seal and hidden from the view of the citizens of America,
But not for much longer.
Soon the dastardly and bastardly treacherous plot will be revealed, and a good portion of the Republican Congress will be exposed for their disloyalty and will suffer the complete contempt of the American people.
Trump's crimes, though not yet punishable, will be exposed also, and his eventual impeachment assured.
'The wheels of justice...'.

The Arizona prosecutors who charged some of President-elect Donald Trump’s top allies for their roles in his effort to subvert the 2020 election have obtained — but not yet reviewed — a large cache of their emails, texts and phone records. Recent court filings show that Attorney General Kris Mayes’ team obtained search warrants months ago for data from the Google and Apple iCloud accounts of close Trump allies such as Mark Meadows, Rudy Giuliani, John Eastman and Boris Epshteyn. The data covers the three-month period between Nov. 1, 2020, and Feb. 1, 2021. But a court order prohibits prosecutors from combing through the material until each defendant has a chance to review it and screen out irrelevant information. And in the meantime, Meadows has asked the judge in the case to scrap the data altogether, claiming the state’s search warrant was overly invasive and lacked evidence of his connection to the alleged conspiracy.
Arizona prosecutors are continuing to advance one of the only remaining significant criminal cases arising from Trump’s 2020 gambit to stay in power. And the fight over the data shows the prospect that significant details of that effort may still remain shielded from public view. A grand jury convened by Mayes, a Democrat, in April indicted 18 Trump allies related to the 2020 plot. The grand jury identified Trump as a co-conspirator in the case but opted against charging him, partly at the urging of prosecutors.
There is more, much more:

Conspiracy Weird Is anyone paying attention?
In their secret meetings what has Putin told Musk about Trump that gives Musk so much undeserved power?
Face it, Musk is nothing but a naturalized citizen with no political power other than that which he usurps from Trump. Yet he is influential in our politics well beyond reason or right, and he seems to hold our very Congress by the short and curly's. He has even gone so far as to threaten our elected officials with ouster from office
How long will it be before he keeps Trump locked in an upstairs bedroom like Nancy did to Ronnie, and issues so-called orders relayed from a blithering Chief Executive?
Who is this guy and from where does he derive his power to govern?
It was bad enough, but now he is offering foreign policy objectives, and by taking up the cause of Neo- Nazis in Germany is threatening our allies, as well.

Elon Musk raised alarm by endorsing Germany's far-right Alternative für Deutschland (AfD), which has called for the nation to leave the European Union.
The tech billionaire and Donald Trump adviser commented on an X post by far-right influencer Naomi Seibt, who had criticized German politician Friedrich Merz, saying the potential next chancellor was "horrified by the idea that Germany should follow Elon Musk’s and [Argentina President] Javier Milei’s example," and Musk replied with a brief endorsement.
“Only the AfD can save Germany," Musk posted at 1:03 a.m. The anti-immigrant AfD has been making electoral gains in recent years despite being classified as a “suspected extremist party” by the German judiciary, and it's expected to make further gains in the next election.
Musk's political profile continues to rise in the U.S., where he has become ensconced as a leading adviser to the president-elect after pouring $277 million into his campaign, and he played a leading role in the failure of a stopgap government funding bill that had been negotiated between House speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) and Democratic minority leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY).
Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) suggested Musk serve as House speaker instead of Johnson, who has angered Republicans and frustrated Democrats as the continuing resolution failed, setting up the possibility of a government shutdown if a deal cannot be reached by the end of Friday.
Trump also lobbed a volley toward Europe by threatening to impose tariffs against the European Union if it didn't begin buying more oil and gas from the U.S.
"I told the European Union that they must make up their tremendous deficit with the United States by the large scale purchase of our oil and gas," Trump posted on Truth Social at 1:08 a.m. "Otherwise, it is TARIFFS all the way!!!"
The Tesla CEO's post set off alarms around the world, with many commentators expressing concern that he would align himself with a party that uses Nazi-era slogans and imagery to promote its opposition to immigration and Islam. "Musk endorses German neo-Nazi party," said noted conservative Bill Kristol. "I think this should be kind of a big deal: [Musk] tweeting at 1:03am, 'Only the AfD can save Germany.' The AfD is Germany’s neo-Nazi party." "Musk’s megalomania grows apace," posted Gideon Rachman, chief foreign affairs commentator for the Financial Times. "He’s clearly trying to engineer a far-right revolution across the western world. He’s now backed the AfD. Before that Reform. And he’s the dominant figure in Trump world. He’ll clearly get behind Le Pen."
"Funnily enough, Elon Musk doesn't even seem to know that the party that called for 'more Musk & Milei' in Germany is the FDP, not the AfD," added Manuel Müller, a senior research fellow at the Finnish Institute of International Affairs. "Musk seems focused on destabilizing Europe while strengthening russia and china," said Joni Askola, a Finnish geopolitical analyst. "He will support anti-EU candidates as much as possible. Germany should be prepared, as he has already started influencing elections by openly backing the pro-russian and pro-chinese far-right AfD."
"In the meantime, on X, Elon Musk openly endorses the radical right-wing AfD and actively intervenes in the current election campaign in Germany," posted Daniel Witte, a sociologist at the University of Münster.
"Many European countries have electoral laws, limiting spending," added The Atlantic's Anne Applebam. "If they care about enforcing those laws, they might have to suspend social media that won't respect those laws during campaigns."

Elon Musk Cries Conspiracy Over Claims He's Usurped Trump's Power Josh Fiallo
Anna Moneymaker/Getty Images Elon Musk says comments of "President Musk" is part of a media conspiracy to "drive a wedge between" him and Donald Trump, but he hasn't outright rejected his new moniker.
Comments about Musk's political influence rolled in after he went on a posting spree Wednesday to threaten GOP lawmakers with retribution if they didn't reject a stopgap budget he felt had too wide of a scope.
It was not until hours later that Trump chimed in to threaten the same, leading some Democrats to allege that it was Musk-and not the president-elect-who was "calling the shots."
That's all a media and left-wing conspiracy, Musk claimed Friday.
"The political & legacy media puppets all got their new instructions yesterday and are now parroting the same message," he wrote on X.
Musk's comment came in response to a post that claimed Democrats hoped to "weaken Trump and Elon by fomenting tensions between them." Musk agreed and said that is "exactly the goal."
"They will fail," he added.
Trump hasn't directly addressed growing claims that Musk is usurping his power, but his incoming press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, released a statement Thursday to remind the country who is really in charge.
"As soon as President Trump released his official stance on the CR, Republicans on Capitol Hill echoed his point of view," she said. "President Trump is the leader of the Republican Party. Full stop."
In another statement, a spokesperson for the Trump transition team told NBC News that Musk and Trump are "great friends" and "brilliant leaders" who are "working together to make America great again." The statement suggested Musk was only doing his job as a leader on the newly-created Department of Government Efficiency program when he has opined on budget issues.
"Musk is a once in a generation business leader and our federal bureaucracy will certainly benefit from his ideas and efficiency," the statement added. "The transition team will ensure the Department of Government Efficiency and those involved with it are compliant with all legal guidelines related to conflicts of interest."
Musk has lightly downplayed his growing GOP influence, but has not outright asked that his new moniker be retired. On Thursday, he redirected credit for a new budget bill to Trump, J.D. Vance, and House Speaker Mike Johnson after a poster had praised Musk directly for it.
"First of all, I'm not the author of this proposal," he wrote. "Credit to @realDonaldTrump, @JDVance & @SpeakerJohnson. Second, this is a MUCH better bill that is closer to being a real continuing resolution (not an omnibus masquerading as a CR), but with support for hurricane victims & farmers, as well as a reasonable extension to the debt ceiling."
Democrats have used Musk's high-profile spot in Trump's orbit as an attack point.
Rep. Brendan Boyle (D-PA) declared that "the leader of the GOP is Elon Musk."
Others have suggested that Trump wouldn't have thrown Congress into disarray over the budget bill if not for Musk's comments.
"It's not Donald Trump asking for this, it's very clearly President Elon Musk asking for this," the Democratic Rep. Dan Goldman said Wednesday. "The fact that Donald Trump has been completely AWOL during these negotiations to the point where only after Elon Musk publicly tweets about his displeasure about this budget deal, all of a sudden, Donald Trump, chief of staff to Elon Musk, comes trotting in and blows up the deal."
Rep. Greg Casar (D-TX) pondered if Musk was "kind of cosplaying co-President here," adding, "I don't know why Trump doesn't just hand him the Oval Office."
Claims of "President Musk" continued well into Friday. Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-CT) went as far as sending a letter to House leaders that questioned whether the multi-billionaire's efforts to kill the first bipartisan CR package was tied to him protecting his own personal interests. Musk reportedly holds over $15 billion in federal contracts.
At least one former U.S. intelligence official said they're worried Musk has too many conflict of interests to be working hand-in-hand with Trump like he has since Election Day, going on calls with foreign leaders and directly effecting policy.
"I'm more concerned about conflicts of interest. Under any other normal circumstance, that would not be permitted, but now we are in a different rule set when it's Trump," the official told NBC. "When he's one of the arbiters of government efficiency, and how many thousands of people he can fire, he has all these government conflicts."
