Mar-a-Lago raided

It wouldn’t be about the mere existence of classified records at ML. They wouldn’t do this unless they were looking for something specific and had a very good idea it was there.
Dont they (law enforcement) have to give the judge a pretty good idea of what they are looking for and what they think will be there?
-
Sure but this would have much much more scrutiny than the average investigation. The bar would be much higher.

Lock ‘em up.
Is it too late to copyright the phrase “Orange is the new orange”

It’s interesting that this didn’t leak, even after the fact. Trump essentially broke the story himself.
DON’T let them eat cake.

@jon-nyc That was my very first thought also: Wow, they were reeeaaally close-mouthed on this. Might be a Washington DC first. Kind of lends weight to your observation that there must be some heavy stuff to find -- as well as somebody's determination to do so.

This decision was made in Garland's conference room. It's politics, worthy of a banana republic.
The Justice Department is corrupt and we are lurching into a post-Constitutional country. It is very evident that blind justice does not exist, that who is harassed and investigated depends on political affiliation.
I don't care what you think of Trump, this is chilling. Remember, the worm always turns...And paybacks are hell. That's not a good way to run a country.
Always remember, Operation Valkyrie was an act of sedition.

@Jolly Seems like we need more information before we can decide if this is worthy of the “banana republic” appellation.

Are you trying to apply this to Hillary, with her destroying classified documents or the Clintons sending Berger into the National Archives to stuff documents into his underwear?
-
I’d be happy to apply it to both of our candidates from 2016.

You mean going after Manafort for the seventh prosecution in 50 years for a fairly common practice in Washington? Or trying to set up Flynn with the Logan Act, which I don't think had ever been prosecuted before. Or maybe it was the lie made up from whole cloth to smear Carter Page? Or just the travesty of the Russia! Russia! Russia! Hoax, with the lying to judges to obtain FISA warrants?
Look, even an idiot knows this raid was pure politics, authorized with a wink and a nod by the White House. It is a fishing expedition, trying to find something, anything to try to use Trump as a whipping boy for the Midterms, since they are about to lose their asses at the polls, and praying for some type of miracle to bar Trump from running in 2024.
Banana Republic?
Yep.

@Jolly No, I mean the raid on Trump. Perhaps the FBI knows something you and I don’t. Maybe we should wait to see what that is.
-
Didn't I hear this same line of reasoning for three years?
-
As far as I know this is the first such raid.
-
Yeah my thought as well.
I don’t think they’d do this over the mere existence of classified info at ML which has been a known issue for a long time.
