    You may be a non-American, but you are absolutely not a neutral observer.  Do you even understand how a search warrant is obtained?  There has to be suspicion that a crime was committed, that evidence

PLEASE don't focus on the search warrant. Can't we just continue to run down the clock with more dishonest this and thating? I keep expect a Luke, I'm your father-moment with this guy and MicManus.

 

Next up: They release the warrant, but for sane reasons, nuclear stuff isn't on it, or is redacted. Trump yells fake news, witch hunt.

 

Problem: It then forces Garland to formerly charge him. Unlike Trump, Garland has a plan b, c, and d.

45 is quickly losing control of the narrative. Garland called his bluff in every way possible. 45 misjudged, probably never having dealt with anyone so professional and who didn't have to tell everyone how great he is.

 

The warrant was not done in secret, but rather it followed traditional DoJ policy of not making public---so as not to prejudice the public or potential jurors---the reasons or wording of the warrant. The search was never announced by DoJ nor FBI, but only became public because 45 issued a statement.

 

On Thursday, AG Garland did a few things....he asked the judge to unseal the warrant. If 45 thought the warrant was unjustified, he could have released the wording, as is his prerogative. He didn't do it, kind of suggesting it wasn't up to him (which it is), or that he knew the wording would make him look bad. Now faced with the chance the judge will unseal it, 45's lawyers are trying to appeal and block the release, as apparently 45 would lose control of the narrative and lose out on the grift.

 

Also, AG Garland noted that 45's counsel was present during the search, which obviates the chance that "the FBI planted evidence".

 

The reason the search took 10 hours is because not only was material seized, but a detailed inventory of each document was recorded with 45's counsel present.

 

Thus, ZERO chance of 'planted evidence'.

 

AG Garland for the win.

Rubbish. Trump's lawyers have said that they were denied direct access to observe the "search". 

Good article in NY Magazine that has a great line about his lawyers:

 

"You can't do this kind of cable news network BS-ing in real court. Ask Sidney Powell".

What if Trump really does still think he is president? It's about time the shrinks came out and gave an honest assessment of his state of mind and fitness to serve, apart from just legal issues.

Why not get the 2 for one special and get Joe done for free too?

At least one of his lawyers confirmed she was present for the search.

Also likely:

 

"I had no idea I had that stuff. Someone put Mark Meadows in prison immediately".

 

Is Mark the leak? He's prob the most screwed of Trump's enablers. In the him and Jared choice, I pick Mark by a hair.

 

Doh! I forgot; no speculation is allowed on the internet. I guess it's just a porn conveyance mechanism now.

From your own link

 

"She didn't witness boxes or documents being loaded onto the truck, though she did not dispute FBI investigators took material from Mar-a-Lago — Halligan just didn't see it.

Focus NOT on the search warrant but instead the FBI affidavit in support of the warrant application and think back to how often the FBI lied and mislead the FISA court to illegally spy on Trump campaign. And specifically note the FBI lawyer (K Clinesmith) who was convicted for submitting altered docs to the FISA court to convince a judge to grant wiretap warrants. Not good, NEVER trust the FBI, especially when they come up with the outlandish and ridiculous "nuclear doc option" leak.

Do you believe inflation is zero % for July as reported by WH and Joe Biden? You may also believe the "nuclear connection" leak at the Mar-A-Lago doc stash. The DOJ/FBI raid is being gradually exposed as a fishing expedition.

 

After reading all the ill comments here about Trump, the real story is he is destined to win the 2024 presidential election and everyone including the Trump non-fans know it and FEAR absolutely NOTHING more. What else can explain the abhorrent odd, bizarre behavior and hatred directed at everything Trump, MAGA and all those 70 or 80 million Americans who support Trump.

 

Just as Joe Biden thought he had the best news ever for the public, claiming inflation is now "zero," in come poll numbers showing that the FBI raid on President Trump's Mar-a-Lago home has a bad stench to the public.

 

According to a new poll from Convention of States and Trafalgar Group, the majority of Independents, 53.9%, believe Trump's political enemies are behind the FBI Raid. They join 76.7% of Republicans who hold the same view. The two groups are also aligned on enthusiasm to vote based on the FBI raid. The spectacle increased the motivation to vote for 83.3% of Republicans and 71.7% of Independents.

Nearly three-quarters of Trump-Deranged Democrats believe the raid was the impartial justice system at work. The raid did not create as much enthusiasm to vote among Democrats, with only 55.2% saying it made a difference.

 

"Independent and Republican voters are united in their outrage about this unprecedented and tragic event in American history. It's clear to voters that the FBI raid is designed to punish the primary political enemy of the regime in power," said Mark Meckler, President of Convention of States. "This gestapo-style injustice has created a voting surge that is so significant, the polling doesn't even begin to reflect what is coming from grassroots voters in November,"

 

This Mar-A-Lago stunt is playing perfecting in the hands of MAGA much to the as expected accumulating and never ending failures of all things woke in the decay known as the liberal pathogen.

 

The "nuclear doc story" will be laughed out of existence anytime soon now and the next FBI leak will drop. Standby.

Can we possibly step away from speculating on how this can be spun in order to gain electoral advantage and briefly focus on what is happening now?

 

If it turns out the raid was legitimate and documents Trump had no business possessing are found, possibly nuclear secrets, don't you think Trump should be held accountable?

 

If it turns out Trump was illegally keeping documents that should never have left government custody, and keeping them in an insecure manner that put national security at risk, do you think that might soften his popularity a little?

The possibility of the entire search being clearly visible with cctv is rather remote.

Merrick Garland IMO has now wedged Trump and the Republicans with superb finesse.

He had all the bigwigs of the GOP screaming for the search warrant to be released, and stayed silent. He also knew Trump would of course have a copy of the warrant. After a couple of days of keeping his own counsel, he then applied for the warrant to be unsealed in a Florida court. Trump will no doubt be opposing the application.

 

After Trump claimed only mobsters took the Fifth, then used it himself, this is getting to be pure comedy gold. Garland has made McConnell, Graham, Pence etc. - the whole wailing Greek chorus of Trump Republicans - look like absolute idiots.

 

Trump is wedged as well, if he lashes out at Garland in his usual method Garland can just say well, I'm doing what you all want. It's probably why he has shut up, he has no idea what to do next.
