Has Pam Bondi entered the conversation for most corrupt AG in just 6 months?

I’m not aware of any irregularities. Recovery of classified documents is a pretty serious business in the DoJ.

That’s not lawfare.
Especially in a controversial case in which past bias against the subject has been exposed.

But . . .Serious enough to require a warrant from a federal judge?

They tried a subpoena first but that didn’t work. Going to a search warrant is the next obvious step. He’s lucky he didn’t get the search first.

So why not get it from a federal judge?
 
Reinhart was a Magistrate, not a federal judge. It"s in your link.

The whole raid was highly irregular. 44 presidents prior to Trump kept control of WH documents. The presidents each decided which records to keep. Trump was targetted for being "a loathsome human being," etc.

But as i said, Bondi has bigger and more rancid fish to fry, so they may get away with it.

It appears that the NARA may have been unduly influenced by the politically charged DOJ, as well as the magistrate. Getting them under oath will help clear that up.

He's a federal magistrate judge. There's nothing unusual about using a magistrate judge making the search warrant.

I would like you to attempt to substantiate your claim that prior presidents kept WH documents, but specifically classified WH documents. You can provide an example of anyone since Nixon. I don't think this is correct.

Maybe. Maybe the FBI always gets warrants from magistrates when they want to search the private homes of former presidents, or other senior officials. Or was there no precedent? Yes, I think that's it. Searching Donald Trump's private residence was unprecedented, i.e. highly irregular. Just for appearances sake, they should not have gotten some obscure magistrate for that.

My theory is that a magistrate, not being a lifetime appointment and perhaps aspiring for a real Federal Judgeship, might be easier to convince to issue a sketchy warrant in a way that had never been done before.

Simple way to solve that mystery: Get him under oath, and ask him if the warrant request was done in the normal way he always issues warrants, or was he contacted by anyone prior to the application being submitted. If he was contacted, by whom and to say what?

Maybe he'll say, "oh yes, very normal. One morning I was going through my in box and there was a motion for bail reduction, a request for mediation by parties to a boundaries dispute, a thank you card from my daughter and new son-in-law, a request to search the private residence of a former president of the opposing party, and a draft of a judgement in federal firearms license case. Just another day at the office!"

Or maybe he'll say he was contacted and tell us all about it.

Or maybe he'll take the fifth. Ya think?

I didn't mention classified documents. It's a different deal with presidents "keeping classified documents." Presidents have sole authority over classification, the courts have long ruled that. Much different from the huge stash of classified documents that Biden stole as Senator.

But, say!

We seem to have an "answer deficit" here. I'm answering your questions, but you're not answering mine.

How about I give you two for one? I'll answer two of yours and you answer one of mine?

I choose this one:

Bondi can get the agents under oath and ask them if the documents were marked classified as they found them.

Reckon they'll plead the 5th?

So you’re complaining that they treated Trump unfairly because they didn’t treat him differently than normal people.

The topic is about classified documents so making claims about other documents is not relevant.

I think anyone questioned by Bondi’s circus should plead the 5th. I wouldn’t trust any of these people. I don’t know what the agents would actually do.

They treated him very differently than anyone else, normal or not.

The topic is berg80's latest obsessive rant about Pam Bondi. We've gotten well off that topic so playing the "off-topic" card now doesn't work.

I'll take that to mean, yes they will.

That will be extremely telling for them to take the fifth.

Why would the magistrate simply say, "of course no one contacted me about this" if no one did?

Why would the FBI Agents who raided Mar-a-Lago not be pleased to tell the truth and clear their names?

A magistrate judge would issue the search warrant for normal people. Trump got a subpoena, and normal people wouldn’t have.

If anything, they treated him better than normal people.

It means I have no idea but I would if I were them.

Because the safest thing when engaging with corrupt law enforcement is to remain silent.

No "normal" person, in fact no normal president or presidential candidate would have had an FBI Deputy Assistant Director and an FBI lawyer (who were having an affair) say this about them:

"He's not ever going to become president, right? Right?!"

"No. No he won't. We'll stop it."


Nor would the same two text:

“about [a] media leak strategy with DOJ.”


If anything, they treated him better than normal people.
Read above.

That they fear that what they say might incriminate them. If they do not, then they are falsely claiming the fifth.

The truth is not safe for them?
 
Look at how Rod Rosenstein squirmed to avoid answering questions about the scam investigation of the Russia Collusion Hoax.



Look how Democrats try to run interference for Rosenstein.
 
Here is Jim Jordan exposing how much latitude the fanatically anti-Trump Peter Strozk was given to be in charge of the Clinton Investigation, the Russiagate Hoax investigation and then the Meuller investigation.

He was only kicked off when he got caught.



Marener watch from 2:20 on and see how guilty a person looks when they refuse to answer questions.

You’re not staying on topic.

Read above.
Totally irrelevant.

Lots of innocent people have had lots of trouble because they couldn’t shut up.

Any rational person knows you don’t help the cops ruin your life.

The truth is not safe for them?

Not as safe as silence. What good could come from talking?

“Looking guilty” isn’t relevant. People don’t go to jail because they “look guilty”.

It's perfectly on topic to anwer your claim that Trump was treated just like everyone else with examples of how biased FBI/DOJ officials used the weight of the federal government to go after him as no human on Earth has ever been gone after before.

You’re so dramatic.

Trump is a crook. He escaped all culpability because people like you make up fantasies about what the government did and didn’t do.

Now you're getting personal.

You were doing fine for a while.

You were doing fine but after failing to defend your allegations about the search of Mar a Lago, you changed the subject to Strzok who had nothing to do with it.
