Last weekend former FBI Director James Comey said there were multiple officials remaining within the DOJ and FBI who were actively working to continue the weaponization of the agencies against President Donald Trump. When asked about it earlier today, President Trump said Acting AG Todd Blanche and FBI Director Kash Patel would root them out and deal with the issue.
Hours later the Dept of Justice released and indictment {SEE HERE} against Managing Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Fort Pierce Branch, Carmen M. Lineberger. Asst USAO Lineberger was caught downloading classified files from the Jack Smith case to her personal email and labeling them as recipes so she could leak them to Lawfare resistance members.
According to FBI Director Kash Patel, “This afternoon, a former managing assistant U.S. Attorney who supported Jack Smith’s politicized investigation of President Trump has been charged with stealing the confidential investigation documents. Carmen Lineberger allegedly emailed the confidential material to her own personal email, disguising them as dessert recipes to conceal them from record searches. Lineberger is charged with four felony counts in the indictment. This FBI will not hesitate to bring to account those who violated the trust of the American public in an investigation that should’ve never been brought to begin with.” {link}
The files Ms. Lineberger is accused of stealing, relate to the Jack Smith case files from the Mar-a-Lago investigation that Judge Aileen Cannon previously sealed. [Link Below] It appears attorney Carmen Lineberger was in the process of covering her tracks when she was discovered downloading the material and transmitting it outside the U.S. Attorney offices. {INDICTMENT HERE}
After Special Counsel Jack Smith was dispatched by Judge Aileen Cannon, his team continued to organize materials to frame the hit against an incoming Trump administration. Judge Cannon calls out this wrongdoing as part of her ruling to keep all the records sealed. [Ruling pdf Here]
“While it is true that former special counsels have released final reports at the conclusion of their work,” Cannon wrote, “it appears they have done so either after electing not to bring charges at all or after adjudications of guilt by plea or trial. The Court strains to find a situation in which a former special counsel has released a report after initiating criminal charges that did not result in a finding of guilt.”

👉Looks like getting caught sending “cake recipes” is similar to getting caught with hand “in the cookie jar”👈
For Hillary it was her daughters’ wedding plans. Reminder: a wedding paid for by unsuspecting donors.
A guys name popped up in the local big city newspaper lately…. as he’s being accused of running a Marijuana dispensary Cartel up to 60% in some markets. I didn’t think much of it, until I saw a famous youtuber video… where the guy was featured inside his home, that he said was bought from None other than the Walton family of Walmart… which Hillary and Bill are connected to from the good ole Bentonville/ Arkansas days. I found it quite odd… some random guy owning a former Walton mansion…. looked into him and one of his former law partners ended up at Walmart in high level senior management job…. Before the became the President of the Marijuana firm…. he ran his own Law office that mysteriously was bought by none of than Rose Law Firm…. where HIllary became famous. THat being said, the guy claims he doesn’t use marijuana, etc. He’s probably just a clean face…. too much funny business going on and the CLinton’s are known for appointing lower wrung lessor known associates to run their operations. The fact that he is connected to Walton’s somehow and Walton’s are inflating prices to hurt Trump via elections is quite interesting too.
Someone left the cake out in the rain, and I don’t think that I can take it, cause it took so long to bake it, and I’ll never have that recipe again……Oh No……. (With apologies to Jimmy Webb)
Hang ‘em high for committing treason and the recidivism rate for traitors will drop like a trap door on a gallows.
Lineberger was indicted for downloading classified files…
Not a Nothingburger 🙂
Better not be a nothingburger, or “classified” info will become something like the old Ann Lander’s gossip articles.
soon the jailbirds will be singing
Retired Magistrate here: Good, now she can she what it is like to be a defendant in a criminal case. Except this time, she is the one who actually did something criminal.
Question now is, was she successful in sending them from her personal email to CNN and MSDNC.
Good question.
Ooh. Now do the Supreme Court leaker………
What was Pam Bondi doing? I means really. WTF was she doing??
Ever since she got canned the DOJ is on fire!
She is either horribly inept or crooked as the day is long.
Both appear to apply!
Or both……
Never forget that Bondi is a bushbot; crooked by definition.
What bugs me is she’s supposed to be besties with Judge Jeanine.
Yeah verily. Pam Bondi’s day of “exactly” what she was “doing” will come. Sundance pointed out MANY TIMES how often she made appearances on FOX “news.”
It will be the END of FOX “news” IF THEY HIRE BONDI. Addressing President Trump as Mr. Trump in Cabinet meetings.
I trust President Trump will let us know(if he chooses to) in his own time why he ever appointed her and that maybe he made a mistake? I dunno. And Pam Bondi is dust in the wind for now.
Love Todd Blanche. Agree he should be made AG PRONTO.
Ultra vires – an act done without legal authority to do so. For the other legal illiterates like me.
This is NOT “rooting out”, this is getting caught. She’s already pled ‘not guilty’ at her arraignment today, so NO plea deal should be offered nor considered, they need to throw the book at her. That is unless she starts coughing up others, many-many others with proof-positive results of rogue activities. This will begin the “rooting out” process.
More post-Bondi progress. Moar!
AG Blanche should be promoted to official AG.
So far, so good…
Hopefully, her emails will reveal the web of the other little shits.
And a few big ones.
Lineberger?
I’ll bet that’s not her maiden name.
It will be interesting to see who her husband is.
Stephen Powell.
Amazing how with Blondi now gone, things happen 😂
Hmmm, caught clean and clear. I’d definitely be fine with knocking down to misdemeanor with not time served for cooperation moving up the ladder. “Show us the emails/texts/communication from someone requesting you do this.”
I’m sure the current DOJ could easily get the info………of course, a Biden bunch would just do it regardless of 4th Amendment.
🥞…….
Looks like Ms Lineberger has been eating well.
Carmen M. Lineberger is a 62-year-old former federal prosecutor who most recently served as the Managing Assistant U.S. Attorney (MAUSA) in the Fort Pierce branch of the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida. She was indicted in May 2026 on charges of theft of government property, falsifying records, and concealing public records after allegedly emailing herself a sealed volume of Special Counsel Jack Smith’s report on Donald Trump’s classified documents investigation, disguising the file as a “Bundt_Cake_Recipe.pdf.
Lineberger has an extensive legal and academic background, holding a J.D. and LL.M. from Temple University’s Beasley School of Law and a B.A. from the University of Pennsylvania.
She was admitted to the bar in 1988 and spent years in federal prosecution, also serving in leadership roles with the National Black Prosecutors Association (NBPA), where she was President, CLE Coordinator, and a facilitator for implicit bias training. She taught as an Adjunct Professor at Peirce College and Temple University, focusing on legal research, criminal law, and victims’ rights.
Carmen M. Lineberger was born on June 26, 1963, at Fort Dix, New Jersey.
Her father, Judge James A. Lineberger, was a U.S. Army officer stationed there at the time. He was serving in the military and had married her mother, Ursula Elizabeth Schoenfeld, while stationed in Stuttgart Germany in 1954.
Mr. Lineberger was born in Stanley, North Carolina, to Jonas Archie and Viola Durham Lineberger, and grew up in the segregated South. He served in the U.S. Army, later becoming a prominent jurist in Philadelphia and a member of the Prince Hall Masons, a historically African American fraternal organization.
He was also affiliated with the Foster Military Lodge Temple in Willingboro, New Jersey, which are historically African American fraternal and civic organizations.
James A. Lineberger was a member of Sharon Baptist Church in Philadelphia, where his funeral service was held in 2014.
Lock her up!!!
Yet another “clever” deviant with a Crush on Jack Smith in his Nazi uniform. Hiding classified info into a “recipe” file is clever, so to speak. Just another human with a self-crushing case of TDS.
i bet she is saying why didn’t you just keep your big mouth shut. But then, when you do have a big mouth that is hard to do
I wish I didnt see that…what a disgusting leftist pig. Even more hideous then the average leftist.
Flight risk back to whatever shthole she crawled out of. Just get it the hell out a here!
Bondi’s tenure was a joke but we all know this Deep State lawyer will get pardoned the first minute a Democrat gets back in the White House. Going through the court process does take a toll at least.
Democrats and their minions commit open crimes because they know the system protects them – look how smug Comey is in his television appearances. It’s the one great asymmetrical advantage they have in navigating the Swamp besides the endless money from their illicit activities.
