(Excerpt) ->
Was the Federal Bureau of Investigation justified in searching Donald Trumpās residence at Mar-a-Lago? The judge who issued the warrant for Mar-a-Lago has signaled that he is likely to release a redacted version of the affidavit supporting it. But the warrant itself suggests the answer is likely noāthe FBI had no legally valid cause for the raid.
The warrant authorized the FBI to seize āall physical documents and records constituting evidence, contraband, fruits of crime, or other items illegally possessed in violation of 18 U.S.C. Ā§Ā§793, 2071, or 1519ā (emphasis added). These three criminal statutes all address the possession and handling of materials that contain national-security information, public records or material relevant to an investigation or other matters properly before a federal agency or the courts.
The materials to be seized included āany government and/or Presidential Records created between January 20, 2017, and January 20, 2021āāi.e., during Mr. Trumpās term of office. Virtually all the materials at Mar-a-Lago are likely to fall within this category. Federal law gives Mr. Trump a right of access to them. His possession of them is entirely consistent with that right, and therefore lawful, regardless of the statutes the FBI cites in its warrant.

His possession of them is entirely consistent with that right, and therefore lawful, regardless of the statutes the FBI cites in its warrant.
Those statutes are general in their text and application. But Mr. Trumpās documents are covered by a specific statute, the Presidential Records Act of 1978. It has long been the Supreme Court position, as stated in Morton v. Mancari (1974), that āwhere there is no clear intention otherwise, a specific statute will not be controlled or nullified by a general one, regardless of the priority of enactment.ā The former presidentās rights under the PRA trump any application of the laws the FBI warrant cites.
Commentary:
The overreach of both Garland and Wray is astounding.
If this were done by the DOJ during the Trump administration to Obama, or VP Joe Biden this would have been reversed long ago. Instead, this is going to be milked through the midterms.
It has in effect hurt the DOJ, Merrick Garland, the FBI, Christpher Wray, Democrats overall, and especially Joe Biden.
Well, we do know that unlike Bill Clinton the Nuke Codes were not lost, nor did DJT abscond with $28,000 worth of White House furniture neither did he leave with over 3 million documents as Obama did
Obviously, the Maoist Democrats in power have gone from being merely lawless to conceiving that their interests are the very bounds in which all law must operate.
It's become that using the word ālegalā with anything involving Democrats produces nothing.
For them, there are no rules, regulations, laws or statutes. All of those terms are for āothers.ā
Thanks fir posting that,the paid trolls of the dnc thst have penetrated this site can only sling shit in defeat like the monkey trolls they are,
They will never own up to it thst trump is the first real president of America sense kennedy not part of the corrupt two party system and the fbi raid was done to plant evidence because he served the people instead of the elite these commie Biden loving Trump America haters.
Look at Schiff's demeanor. He is sitting upright, his jaw is clinched, his eyes are fluttering... SChitt is LYING and he knows it. They are in panic mode trying to defend themselves. Now even the Lame Stream Media can no longer defend them, and they are jumping ship. Five major newspapers this AM have stories on how the raid had no legal basis. The narrative is collapsing, and Biden is collapsing with it.
You keep on talking about sleepy joe trollboy.OH COME ON!
Nobody "sets Trump up!"
He's an idiot.
An incompetent, criminal train wreck!
He does his own damage.
Thatās because hitlery is part of the corrupt two party system and the elite fagboy paid troll,trump is the first president sense kennedy not part of it.your such a stupid fuck you no doubt deny reality the cia killed kennedy fir trying to pull out of Vietnam and get rid of the fed and the fbi destroyed evidence in the coverup.If he hasn't done anything resembling a crime, then why in the hell does he have all those indictments since he's left the WH?
As far as no charge in just 2 weeks? Dude.............it takes time to process what they just took. The charges will come in a little while.
Hey, you guys on the right bitched and screamed about Hillary for many years, yet no charges or indictments have been brought against her, even in spite of the conservatives best efforts to do so.
Oh and guess what stupid fuck fagboy,constitutional lawyers have said the raid by the fbi was illegal and the judge thst signed the affidavit was friends with sicko convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein,you also donāt want to talk about Clinton giving China secret military documents or mrs Clinton illegally deleting 3000 classified documents you fuckface commie loving America hater.Trollyboy magic Mike gets his ass owned handed to him on a platter as do the other biden commie loving Trump and America haters did.He hasn't done anything resembling a crime... give it up already...
7 years of investigation into his life and his family.... and his business and having the IRS looking into his returns for 4 years and we haven't heard of any crime... Russia collusion was untrue... Ukraine phone call was a hoax after they released the transcript even dems laughed...
Not one charge from the raid in two weeks?.... total silence from all evolved....
You have a major disappointment headed your way.... again....
Demscum are the fools, fool.Nope. You're a fool. Trump is a sick man.

Itās called infiltrating paid shill,trump is clever at thst on keeping his enemies close to keep tabs on them,thst is why he appointed people in the deep state to keep tabs on them.trump was instrumental in having a big hand in taking him down dumbass.With all the misspellings and very poor grammar (as well as the repeated insults), are you posting drunk? And, what exactly makes them constitutional lawyers? Because they say so? Well, believe that if you wish, but it's getting to the point that lots of people label themselves as "experts" in order to try to get people to believe them. As far as Epstein? Guess you missed all the photos of Trump posing with him, as well as the fact that Trump at one time called Epstein a friend.
Trump had to sell himself to Epstein he was pals with him,he is clever thst way.evade facts like the trollboy you are on the constitution,evade facts on the longggggg decades corruption of the fbi paid shill,evade the fact Clinton was on Epsteinās flight logs but trump was not sense it does not fit your narrative how evil Clinton is.Itās called infiltrating paid shill,trump is clever at thst on keeping his enemies close to keep tabs on them,thst is why he appointed people in the deep state to keep tabs on them.trump was instrumental in having a big hand in taking him down dumbass.
Saying those lawyers are not experts you just admitted defeat as always America hater.
Have fun talking to yourself,I have taken you to school soooooo many hundreds of times in the past 9/11 was an inside job and you always ran off with your tail between your legs like the coward you are unable to stand toe to to toe in a debate,you trolls donāt want to talk about how the fbi turned the other cheek when Clinton sold military secrets to China or Hillery illegally deleting 3000 emails or sleepy joes ties to China paid shill.
