More details surfacing about the illicit, sketchy and highly political FBI raid on President Trump’s home are coming out. The federal agents sent by the DC political system refused to provide the search warrant and demanded all of the security cameras (snip)be turned off(snip) Knowing the details of the DOJ and FBI targeting operations against Donald Trump as a candidate and president (2015-2020), I suspect Trump took some of the declassified (by him) evidence of that targeting with him. (sbip) former Office of the Director of National Intelligence, John Ratcliffe, has stated on multiple occasions that there were documents he and Trump declassified for the Durham team and to be made

This is reminiscent of the same spirit of transparency that occurred at critical metropolitan swing state voting centers in 2020. That was when observers were kicked out at 1 a.m. on the basis that the vote count was being paused until morning. After they left, the ballot counters inside obstructed the windows with cardboard so that no one outside could see what was actually going on. If you are suspicious of such behavior, you are a conspiracy theorist and should not be permitted on social media. It is obviously all perfectly legitimate, because, well CNN among other media says so.

Very interesting. So everything the FBI did has been recorded. Can't wait to see the videos. So whatever Durham was interested in, Lame Duck Joe's administration is involved. This is LDJ's Watergate, instead of using ex-CIA operatives, he sent in the FBI. Can't get any more guilty than this. It's time to release the Ratcliffe documents and let everyone see what the FBI and LDJ was after. It's SHTF time in DC.

This is how the FBI fish: seal the warrant, go searching the location. Find or plant evidence that is then added to the warrant behind the seal. You could never do this to a Democrat.

The answer on the security cameras would be "Not a chance in hell, you criminals. I want to record all your criminal activities so we can charge you later."

FTA: 'I am willing to bet the current documents at the heart of the controversy are copies of those same previously declassified documents that are against the interests of the current ODNI, DOJ and FBI to release." Brings to mind John Dean's "personal motivations" for orchestrating the Watergate break-in that Nixon knew nothing about.

They may have also been trying to seize exculpatory documents that proves trumps innocence on many accusations, items and documents he may have NEEDED to retain for future defense purposes. This is the same group that accepted third party assurances over the Clinton documents/emails/server...and accepted NEVER actually seeing any of the originals or the equipment itself. Allowed her to testify that she NEVER used a personal phone, in a hearing where her testimony was interrupted so that she could answer her personal phone. Which was an I-Phone at a time when the ONLY equipt allowed to be used by any Govt employee was Blackberry products,

So where was the Secret Service (SS)? So the SS just hits the nearest bar when the former president is out of town and lets any old terrorist have complete reign over the house? How many bugs did the FBI place. Any bomb? Do we know at the time of the raid that it was actually the FBI? Its shame that Trump isn't provided adequate security. Bet Clinton and Obambi aren't treated this way. Or was the SS in on the deal?

I hope that Pres Trump and his team wisely scanned these documents long ago and have them on flash drives or other portable media devices in an offsite secure location. And it might be time to make additional copies and keep them in additional separate secure locations.

Of course they wanted security cameras shut down. Can't plant phony docs if you are being watched by a camera. Aren't all LE supposed to give the targeted person the search warrant so they can see why they are being targeted? Given the judge was Epstein's lawyer before taking the bench, this is starting to stink like Swallwell's gas passing.

With the FBI’s recent raid on one of the homes of former President Donald Trump, the federal justice system in America has sunk below the level of third-world countries, according to Kash Patel, a former national security official in the Trump administration. The FBI executed a search warrant at Trump’s Mar-A-Lago resort in Florida on Aug. 8 looking for White House documents Trump may have taken with him when leaving office, a lawyer for Trump told The Epoch Times. Trump said he’s been cooperating with law enforcement for months and there was no need for a raid.

FBI agents seized classified records from former President Trump’s home at Mar-a-Lago during its unprecedented raid on Monday, including some marked as top secret, according to documents reviewed by Fox News. U.S. Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart signed the warrant on Aug. 5, giving the FBI authority to conduct its search "on or before August 19, 2022," and "in the daytime 6:00 am. to 10:00 p.m." "The locations to be searched include the ‘45 Office,' all storage rooms, and all other rooms or areas within the premises used or available to be used by FPOTUS and his staff and in which boxes or documents could be stored, including all structures or buildings

I have to say, I’m kind of enjoying this whole Trump-FBI raid news cycle. It’s so patently absurd, but like a badly written TV show, you just feel like you’ve got to see through until the end. On Thursday, AG Merrick Garland finally spoke out while not really saying anything at all. He did agree to unseal the warrant used for the raid of Trump’s home, but he gave no details about what the FBI was after and what evidence they supposedly had to undergird their actions. It felt like an attempt to downplay the ordeal. Had the FBI failed to find what it was looking for? Then the leaks started.

The push to transition the national road fleet to electric vehicles (EVs) is on and while increasingly popular with buyers, experts in the transportation space are examining potential problems with mass EV adoption.One such issue involves EVs and evacuations during natural disasters. A report from Transportation Research published in ScienceDirect headlined “Can we evacuate from hurricanes with electric vehicles?” found that Florida—which often bears the force of hurricanes—may not have enough power to cope during an evacuation. “If the majority of the evacuating vehicles were EVs, Florida would face a serious challenge in power supply,” the report said.

Let’s hope Merrick Garland’s search of Mar-a-Lago is based on more evidence than his indictment of the Louisville, Kentucky, police officers involved in the raid on Breonna Taylor’s house. That passive construction I just used — “involved in the raid on,” instead of “who raided” — is not sloppy writing: It’s the facts. The officers who actually shot Taylor have not been charged, apparently on the flimsy grounds that they were being shot at when they fired. Instead, our lunatic attorney general has indicted officers who prepared the affidavit used to obtain the warrant to search Taylor’s home. In the words of the indictment, the affidavit “contained information that was false, misleading

A person close to the Trump family suggested the FBI may have planted “listening devices” during a raid targeting former President Donald Trump’s Florida residence earlier this week. Lawyers for the former president previously said that FBI agents would not allow Trump’s team to observe or supervise their search of Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach. One lawyer, Lindsey Halligan, told Fox News on Thursday that agents are believed to have searched Trump’s bedroom, office, and a storage room. Because the FBI allegedly “didn’t allow anybody to supervise what they were doing, and they specifically requested to turn off the security cameras,” Kimbery Guilfoyle

Former President Donald Trump on Wednesday afternoon revealed more details on the circumstances surrounding the FBI’s Aug. 8 raid of his Mar-a-Lago home. “In early June, the DOJ and FBI asked my legal representatives to put an extra lock on the door leading to the place where boxes were stored in Mar-a-Lago – We agreed,” Trump said in a post on Truth Social on Aug. 10, in an apparent reference to boxes that may have been used to store presidential records in Mar-a-Lago. “They were shown the secured area, and the boxes themselves.”

CTH will be outlining the entire story behind the raid on President Trump’s home at Mar-a-Lago in Florida, including what documents the DOJ and FBI are determined to control.

FBI agents who raided Donald Trump's Florida resort on Monday were hunting for classified documents relating to nuclear weapons, sources said on Thursday evening. Details emerged soon after Attorney General Merrick Garland appeared before cameras to defend the search and reveal that he had approved the operation at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach. Fall-out from the unprecedented search of a former president's residence has dominated the political world ever since Monday and the Justice Department is under increasing pressure to explain its decision. Garland said he could not reveal further details of what prompted the hunt, but sources told the Washington Post it was to do with nuclear weapons.

Before that, the FBI looked the other way in 2016 regarding Hillary Clinton’s 33,000 acid-washed emails.

It seems the DOJ has decided to leak an explanation of their decision to use a search warrant in this case. Newsweek just published an exclusive report based on anonymous DOJ sources which claims the FBI had a confidential source at Mar-a-Lago, one who informed them that Trump was hiding documents and even specified where they could be found. The raid on Mar-a-Lago was based largely on information from an FBI confidential human source, one who was able to identify what classified documents former President Trump was still hiding and even the location of those documents, two senior government officials told Newsweek.
