      @Jolly said in Mar-a-Lago raided:

      The President can declassify whatever he wishes.

      Yes, however there's a process he has to follow. He can't just announce it.

      I'd bet money on the fact that he didn't follow the process.

      Apparently, the more technology-challenged Trump tried to flush the papers down the toilet.

      I wonder if it was one of the solid gold ones.

      Again even without knowing what was in the documents uncovered by the search, the situations aren’t comparable.

      Hilary turned over the servers and didn’t hold anything back and lie about it.

      I agree with you, but even if you believe that Hillary broke the law, it's still a crap defence.

      "So little Donny, if Hillary jumped in the river, would you jump in the river too....?"

      @Horace you too will buy your lunch at a gas station store!

      Just don't eat the gas station sushi, particularly in Texas.

      The Buc'ees gas station in Katy has 120 pumps. The place is nuts. The chairman of the committee I was on lives near there, and he just raved about it.

      But you can't say that there is such a discrepancy while, in the same breath, alleging, as Garland did, that "no one is above the law." If some are above the law, then everyone is above the law.

      In that case, the fault is not in raiding Mar-a-Lago, but arguably in not doing enough to go after Hillary.

      Wasn't the particular law that Trump is being investigated tightened up under his Presidency?

      @Doctor-Phibes said in Mar-a-Lago raided:

      Both of them have lived pretty much their entire lives looking down on the little people, and that playing by the rules is something for lesser mortals.

      Anybody naive enough to think otherwise deserves what they get.

      Absolutely. The problem is, as French points out, is why should one not deserve what they get and the other does?

      As @jon-nyc points out, we don't know enough, yet, about what was alleged, what allegedly secret documents were in his possession, and whether anything not under the warrant may have been seized.

      We don't know what Trump did or didn't do, and we don't know how much he's being hiding.

      Pointing out that there's a discrepancy in how people are treated is interesting, but it's not a very good legal defence. If Trump was a poor black guy living in the projects, they'd have broken down his door at 2am and shot him when he tried to defend himself.

      (I'm not making a racial point - he wouldn't do too well if he was white trash without money, either)

      Is it in the Houston area or Austin?

      Houston. Near Katy.

      I was in Katy earlier this year. Far enough away from Houston so that you're away from Houston, but close enough so that you can still get there if you really have to.

      Have you been to Buc'ees yet?
