Popular Post ozimoron Posted August 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 9, 2022 (edited) All just part of the story of the worst US president in history. This is the real reason for the raid. The FBI executed a search warrant Monday at Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida, as part of an investigation into the handling of presidential documents, including classified documents, that may have been brought there, three people familiar with the situation told CNN. https://edition.cnn.com/2022/08/08/politics/mar-a-lago-search-warrant-fbi-donald-trump/index.html National Archives acknowledges classified documents were found in boxes at Mar-a-Lago after Trump left office https://edition.cnn.com/2022/02/18/politics/national-archives-trump-department-of-justice/index.html Edited August 9, 2022 by ozimoron 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trump never saw it coming. He thought there would never be consequences for his grifting life of crime as there haven't been before. His safe would be the first place to go 55555.

And by the way, not a single person has labelled you as far right but you are being labelled as a Trump supporter as only Trump supporters have the audacity to defend this man as much as they do. Well, since he did label trump critics on this forum "antifa types", I'd say you have to be extremely far right to believe that. Also called critics here "radical leftists." 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

placeholder Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 2 hours ago, Chomper Higgot said: You make a very valid point. The FBI’s no-knock raid was made under authority of a judge signing the search warrant. To obtain a search warrant the FBI had to present evidence to the judge that demonstrates to the satisfaction of the judge that there is evidence of a crime at the property. To obtain a no-knock warrant the FBI need to make the case, to the judge’s satisfaction, that the subject(s) of the search might destroy or remove evidence. So to answer your question, the FBI have convinced a judge that evidence of a crime exists at the property and that there is reason to believe the subject(s) of the search might destroy or remove that evidence. Look on the bright side Johnny, it might not be Trump they’re after, it could be the cook or the gardener. Oh no! Not the gardener! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that make it a bit more serious? Up to you, but IMO don't waste your time. it's bad enough trump childlike whining about lawful action by the FBI, let alone responding to his base. Don't recall it being mentioned on this forum with trump declaring he will abolish Dept of Ed if he got into power. Just underlines the guy's spite driven behaviour.. https://www.businessinsider.com/video-trump-calls-for-department-of-education-abolition-crowd-cheers-2022-8 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Slip Posted August 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 9, 2022 1 hour ago, OneMoreFarang said: Apart from a little fear that this will lead to the end of the world I would somehow like to see what will happen if Americans vote for Trump another time. Will they then change the constitution so that he can stay forever? Will they also change the laws to that the president has absolute power? To what new extremes will he rise? I am sure it will be worse than any of us can imagine. And last but not least: Will at any time in this process the big majority of Americans wake up and decide enough is enough? Or will they continue to support him until the bitter end? To be fair a big majority of Americans had woken up at the last election; a landslide majority. Let's just hope they don't slide back into the abyss. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Walker88 Posted August 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 9, 2022 Remember that familiar chant from 45's Hate-ins back in 2016, brought back again in 2020? "Lock her up !" That was because HRC had a server in her basement. 45 brought back at least 15 boxes of documents from the White House, some of which were classified TopSecret and other classifications, like the old classification of TS Umbra and Codeword. No reason to remove such docs from the safety of a heavily guarded facility, and he had no need for them. Why would he take them? As a private individual, he has no right to such things, as it could jeopardize 'sources and methods'. Lock him up ! 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
