rontunerReporting that it has to do with those 15 boxes of missing stuff he took...

pianojugglerThat reminds me… did I-1 ever return the stuff he “borrowed” from the US embassy in Paris?

QuirtEvansThe best part was Trumplethinskin saying on the "There's Nobody Home!" social network that it was just like Watergate! The Democrats were raiding Mar-a-Lago!
Because the FBI is all Democrats.
And because Gordon Liddy was a member of law enforcement, acting in an official capacity.
And because a search pursuant to a search warrant is just like breaking and entering.

wtgSearch warrant issued for the home of a former President. I have a hard time believing they went in looking for generic documents that should be at the National Archives. It's not consistent with Garland's style; he's too measured.
It has to be much much bigger than that.
I think they were near 100 percent certain that there is a smoking gun that would implicate people in serious federal crimes.
And with TFG's habit of ripping things up, this comes to mind:
https://www.washingtonpost.com...a-918a-aea36a66b41f/But at this point we just don't know and have to wait and see.
edit: I wondered if something big was coming up when Garland recently made remarks about no one being above the law.

QuirtEvansSomeone on Twitter pointed out yesterday the DoJ's policy of not taking action to interfere with an election within 90 days of the election, and that the date of the search was something like 91-92 days before the election.

jon-nycSeems like coincidence. Trump isn’t running in 2022.

If you think looting is bad wait until I tell you about civil forfeiture.

wtgI thought the guidance references matters that would affect a candidate *or* a political party.

You wouldn’t know it by following the news coverage of the GOP primary races.

rontunerFaux news has been all over "when we take the country back we will hold everyone accountable"... Don't they realize this is what holding people accountable actually looks like?
I've been thinking about the reaction from the Republicans on how this is "a coup" or using the FBI for political gain and realize that...
This is how they think. This is how they expect government to work for them, so they assume everyone else thinks and cheats the same way!
Ugh.

jon-nycTeam Trump has the warrant but hasn’t released it.
I’m guessing it’s because it makes him look too good and his modesty just won’t allow him to publish it. Or something.

jon-nycKeep in mind she’s in possession of the warrant so she knows what the FBI was looking for and why. So the attempt to cast aspersions on the evidence is not a good sign for team Trump. She’s pretending to speak hypothetically, but she almost certainly knows what they found.
