Before US Person gets to that top line, Jenna Ellis, former Trumpillini mouthpiece and "disloyal wench", entered a plea to a single felony in the Georgia election interference case on Tuesday.

That makes four of the original 19 defendants who have pleaded guilty to charges brought by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. Ellis read a tearful written statement to the court in which she claimed that "as a Christian" she takes her responsibilities as a lawyer seriously. She apparently did not think through those responsibilities when representing the previous guy and department store rapist. Ellis told the court,"I relied on others, including lawyers with many more years of experience than I, to provide me with true and reliable information,” big mistake.
Trumpilini's motivation for illegally retaining national security documents became clearer after the NYT looked more closely at the relationship between Australian billionaire Anthony Pratt and Don 'Legit'. As US Person concluded in a previous post {05.10.2023, Secrets for Sale}, the relationship was purely transactional, or as Pratt assessed it, "useful". Pratt paid for access to Trump by buying a $200,000 membership to the Mar-a-Lago club. He purchased two $50,000 dinner tickets for one million dollars to avoid the cap on individual campaign contributions. Pratt also purchased a full page Wall Street Journal ad supporting Trumpilini's presidential bid. Trump told him about secrets about US submarines.
60 Minutes Australia added more background to this influence peddling, exposing the slimy world of pay for play politics as practiced by the ersatz mafia don. Tapes of Pratt talking about his 'friend' and his access to Trump's inner circle were obtained by the program. In one of the recordings, Pratt claims Trump suggested his wife Melania parade around the Mar-a-lago pool in her bikini to, "show them what they are missing". The guy is a slime ball, full stop.
