According to "the experts" on MSNBC the FBI had to get by a number of people and legal reasons to...

... conduct that raid. 2 or 3 levels in the FBI and then by the Trump appointed FBI director, then the US AG
Merrick Garland, and then by a Fed Judge who had to see proof that a crime or crimes had been committed,
proof that the suspect would not respond to a subpoena, and that the FBI had proof that there was most likely
evidence @ Merde Log Oh of criminal activity.

1. I'm thinking

that maybe there's some evidence that information in those classified documents he stole might have gotten into the hands of our enemies - by the Orange Lunatic. Could that be?

3. Everyone has been aware that there was missing classified documents.

I have been asking for months, is the FBI looking for those classified documents?

I can stop asking that question now.

9. Yep

can't wait to learn what they did find. It may take a while - but we WILL know!

2. Meh, everything is God's will,

4. Everything they needed is covered in this CNN story

https://www.cnn.com/2022/08/08/politics/mar-a-lago-search-warrant-fbi-donald-trump/index.html

The FBI found top secret documents in Trump's unsecured storage room in June - long after they were supposed to be returned.

The FBI did their job to secure top secret classified documents.

If Trump didn't want to get raided, he should have obeyed the laws for handling classified documents.

6. I bet you those documents covered:

1) Trump and Russia

2) Post election 2020 and the J-6 attempted coup.

8. If they discovered those things, he's in even deeper shit.

Actions speak louder than words.

Though from the Secret Service text messages and the photos of the clogged toilets, it looks like they tried to do a pretty thorough scrub ...

People tend to overlook that from the Mueller report: Trump obstructed Mueller from finding out the truth.

5. I disagree that absolutely that ALL of the normal procedures

were followed. I don’t buy any integrity of Director Wray. If AG Garland does, that’s his call.

[claudette]

10. Why

don't you buy that?

[Tetrachloride]

11. I conjecture that Wray is Trump's man to some degree.

Similarly, who among the Secret Service is or was a Trump Man.

If Wray remains in his position thru Spring 2023, then i can withdraw my doubts.

AG Garland may have bypassed Wray.

ty for your question

7. IMO, they have been going through the documents he returned, and DOCUMETNS ARE MISSING

He probably sold classified documents to the highest bidder, and yeah, THIS would be treason.

However, a lot of the talking heads are saying that this has to be something much more than "just" the documents (imagine that), and that this was likely based on new, and probably urgent intelligence of additional crimes.



Oh yeah, the DOJ is doing nothing. The FBI is doing nothing.

Never has an ex-president had a FEDERAL search warrant issued. This is FUCKING HUGE.
