You’ve confirmed you can do a search for facts, albeit after first having embarrassed yourself by posting nonsense you should have checked before hitting the send button. If you're the FBI, and you want to make a raid that at the more aggressive end of the scale, as opposed to a subpoena, against a previous president for the first time ever, you need to be very sure of your facts and evidence. There is no conceivable way the raid wasn't approved by the AG as well as the Director of the FBI. There's no way that Biden would have wanted to know or that they would have told him for very obvious political reasons. Same reason they wouldn't let Trump go to the Capitol on Jan 6. Best decision Trump never made. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some Democrats, others have observed Garland’s past record of conducting thorough , leak proof and effective criminal investigations of large coordinated criminal enterprises.

JonnyF Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 50 minutes ago, Eric Loh said: Trump said it was political. You don't believe him and is meaningless too. That makes your allegation rather dross. Trump's supporters have been upset since November 2020. Don't matter much that they upset now. Flawed logic. Just because someone sometimes lies, doesn't mean everything they say is incorrect. I think the main issue for the Dems might be how upset Trump supporters when they come to vote at the next election. Angry people tend not to stay home on voting day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bidens honestly is an important element to this issue . If there's an investigation as to why the FBI raided Trumps house , it could lead back to the FBI boss who was appointed by Biden and Biden would need to answer some questions . Him being shown to be a liar would be an important issue in the investigation 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnyF Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 1 hour ago, Bkk Brian said: It was a stretch for Biden to say he was arrested but he was stopped and detained. Hardly comparable to the mountain of lies Trump has spewed out over the years A stretch? I suppose it was also 'a stretch' when Biden claimed to have been a tractor-trailer driver. It's not 'a stretch', it's 'a lie'. There are countless examples. Hence, I take what he says with a pinch of salt. PS. before you reply, yes, Trump lies as well. I am neutral and therefore able to acknowledge that both are liars. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope if there is any evidence, it's not handed to the FBI on a laptop ala Hunter Biden. We all know how quickly they investigate such material.
