Add in an FBI search and a bunch of baseless lies from Trump lawyers, allies, and scrotum-sucking media buddies bout the FBI planting evidence we imagine in order to prepare us for the feds to reveal something horrible that they confiscated from Trump's safe or the Mar-a-Lago basement and you just have one great big absurd paranoid shitshow.
As Rolling Stone notes, Axios reported yesterday morning that all of Trumpland has been freaking out about who "flipped" on Trump. Later that day, Newsweek, not that we trust Newsweek unless it really shows its work, reported that there was indeed a "confidential human source" who tipped off the feds as to what Trump was hiding from them and where in Mar-a-Lago they'd be found. (That report also had a thing about how "FBI decision-makers in Washington and Miami" decided to do the raid the way they did in order to "lower the profile" of it, what with Trump out of town and so forth. Somebody is being ridiculous here, whether it's "FBI decision-makers in Washington and Miami" or Newsweek's sources or Newsweek itself. There was never any scenario where Trump did not start throwing nuclear bombs if he so much as gets cited for jay-waddling across Fifth Avenue.)
But indeed, Trump lawyer Lindsey Halligan said the FBI targeted its search on the aforementioned basement, plus another storage area and a bedroom. We'd imagine that means they knew what they were looking for, and where, and it makes sense a person told them those things.
(Unless Joe Biden is wiretapping Mar-a-Lago with that fun heat-sensing imaging like they do in Bin Laden raid-type thingies. LOL!)
(Raise your hand if you just read that and immediately thought, "oh God, there's going to be one of those situations at Mar-a-Lago one day, isn't there?" Because we thought it when we typed it.)
(And now you're thinking of that iconic picture of Obama and Hillary Clinton in the Sit Room, but imagine they're just looking at Trump running around the lanais of Mar-a-Lago in his underpants.)
ANYWAY.

The more just deserts, the more misery, the better.

(22,166 posts)And I wonder if they really had an inside source, perhaps so.
But if this classified material is deemed so secret, and classified at the highest levels, such items are tracked intensely (from what I understand, they track from person to person who has the sensitive material, and where it went next, and when it was returned to its proper place).
In short, I thought that they don't let classified materials just go breezing out the door willy-nilly. They track each document carefully.
What gets me is how did tRUMP get/obtain so much classified materials? Why did he have such a bounty of classified materials all in one place? Didn't anyone else say anything? And the most important thing is what was he planning on doing w/ the materials in his hands? Sell it?
