    I'm not quite where Mik is; not quite sick of it yet. If there's crime involved in a story I'm your front-row patootie and have been since I redd my first Nancy Drew. But I am entirely sick of the orchestrated shock and affront trotted out by the injured half whenever something like this happens. Democracy in peril, country to the dogs, banana republic, blah, blah, blah.

    Does no one see the irony here? The breathless fury over the supposed LE violation against a man who imperiled this country far worse than 90% of the perils it has sustained in its entire history? And might be still? And might yet again? Old Mr. "Grab 'Em By the Pussy" wracked up DAILY violations against the American people and these chin tremblers sailed right on.

    Even if the FBI was the evildoer the GOP are lining up so predictably to condemn -- which they probably aren't -- their "raid" on Mar-a-Lago was barely a peccadillo in comparison.

    @Catseye3 LOL Yes, it is irony.

    From the republican side

    Jan 6 - "not a big deal. Just some folks out for sightseeing."

    Lawful search warrant for mar lago - "ILLEGAL!! Worst thing that ever happened to the US."

      No, it was definitely trespassing, and at times violent. A righteous mob doing idiotic things, as they will do.

      Lawful search warrant for mar lago - "ILLEGAL!! Worst thing that ever happened to the US."

      I am thinking this will turn out to be about as routine as raids get, for an essentially bureaucratic violation, which both parties, Trump and Justice, knew could not and would not be ignored.

          How shocking to find a 100% indoctrinated leftist in a high status position of power in America. I wonder how many boxes he'd check for belief in verifiably false narratives fed to him by leftist popular culture?

          Never mind all that, I'm sure there are just as many Trump cultists in those same positions of power, who believe just as many objectively false things. Both sides are the same.

          Well, the article is certainly completely unbiased. Thank God for a free press.

          It is simple fact that the judge, based on those tweets, has a simple good vs evil perspective on Trump and the culture wars he rode to prominence. As my teachings on TNCR have consistently shown, such people cannot be trusted to react fairly or rationally to situations having to do with those good and evil judgments.

            For my birthday, we get an FBI manhunt in the area! The interstate is shut down just a bit north of here. Apparently, a guy with a gun threatened the FBI office about 5 miles from me.

            You wouldn't think he'd get out of there alive. I wonder if it has anything to do with the search.

                                Place your bets... my bet is that the classified secret documents are too classified to talk about, but they have been retrieved. Charges against Donald Trump, if any, are under discussion and not yet finalized.

                                        They are trying to unseal the search warrant. That's good. Nothing else of substance. Standard righteous boilerplate at the end about how the Justice Dept is above reproach and how dare anybody question those self -sacrificing angels of propriety.

                                          @George-K said in Mar-a-Lago raided:

                                          Behind a paywall, but NYT says that Trump was subpoenaed before the raid search.

                                          That was implied by Garland, when he said that before a search warrant is pursued, less intrusive avenues are exhausted.
