The Ashley Biden Diary Thieves Are Trump Supporters Who Are Now Cooperating With The DOJ
Harris and Kurlander are both Trump supporters who have a documented social media history of publicly praising Trump.
Project Veritas is under federal investigation for stealing the diary, and it was former Trump attorney general William Barr who authorized the raid against Veritas.
Project Veritas is the DOJ’s main target, but the guilty plea of the two Trump supporters shows that those who follow Trump into criminal activity for political gain end up paying the price.
Trump has yet to be charged with a crime, but his supporters who follow his lead keep going down.
