(WASHINGTON D.C.) —  With the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago, the Department of Justice is making the case to criminally charge and arrest former President Donald Trump.

The DOJ and Democrat end game is “indictment” and “conviction,” according to Washington insiders.

Attorney General Merrick Garland, who is accused of moving too slowly to indict Trump on sedition charges for the January 6th riot, must have gotten his ducks in a new row.

Powerful democrats have told Garland that it is critical that he moves quickly now to indict Trump and prevent him from running again for office in 2024, according to sources.

There are new signs that Trump is bracing for possible indictment as his own lawyers are “planning for criminal charges.”

Even though Trump is positioning himself as a martyr, he is helpless as an average citizen in a fight against the FBI, DOJ and Democrat party.

His only hope of escaping the noose is to appeal any conviction all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court which he “owns.”  Trump cemented his legacy by installing three conservative justices on the high court and that majority may be his saving grace.  With the Democrats in control for the foreseeable future, there will be no pardons.

Trump is expected to formally announce in September that he is once again running for the presidency. Once having made his announcement, sources close to the DOJ say, “expect an indictment and conviction on some “‘trumped-up charge.'”
