Trump Suddenly Loves 'Sleazy' FBI Agents, Insists He Always 'Has Their Backs'

[Lesh]

Nixon claimed Executive Privilege to keep his White House tapes from being seen by Congressional investigators. The Supreme Court ruled that EP could not be used to keep evidence from being seen in a criminal trial. For some reason you think THAT rather specific ruling meant that Nixon no longer had Executive Privilege! He did.

Nixon's attempt to destroy Watergate tapes​

The Supreme Court scaffolding for the current dispute dates to 1977, when Nixon, three years removed from office, challenged the Presidential Recordings and Materials Preservation Act in his effort to shield Watergate tape recordings and documents.
Chutkan noted in her opinion that Nixon had said he planned to destroy the tapes and that, since the entire Nixon ordeal, Congress had adopted the Presidential Records Act, which changed ownership of a president's official files from private to public; the House committee is seeking the archived Trump files under the act's terms.


The secret Supreme Court: Late nights, courtesy votes and the unwritten 6-vote rule
Nixon lost in 1977 by a 7-2 vote.

So in what manner does the supposed claim of Executive Privilege pertain to Trump's taking PUBLIC records in violation of the PRA?

The TDS here has reach the rabid phase.....I wonder if their hair is falling out?

Stupid comeback that says nothing. As always.

You won't get an answer.

Trump was warned about hiring Bolten but no one is ever going to tell Trump to not do something.

Good graces and Trump never belongs in the same sentence.

That's because Trump is an idiot.

 

[BWK]

If you mean Wray.Then what about Mueller { acknowledged Republican }
or how about a buddy of Mueller or Bill Barr.
Who turned on Trump,as did John Bolton and " Mad Dog " * Mattis.
Because Trump had the good graces and sense of mind to
size-up patriots from D.C. swamp creatures.

failure.I cannot even spell the Word."

Patriots? Trump Had More Than 300 Classified Documents at Mar-a-Lago

Snakes are everywhere, especially in the government. Being the President doesn't necessarily mean you know everything about everybody. Many of his administrative choices were because of bad advisors.

Trump lawyer appeared to agree he should return government documents, old email shows, undermining his later defense Trump failed to take good advise.

 

[BWK]

Who knows. But we do know that Wray still runs the FBI like the Gestapo.
Investigating parents as "domestic terrorists" and calling patriots "white supremacists" and the biggest danger to the US, while protecting the Biden Crime Family

How exactly?

 

[BWK]

Trump was asserting the exact same privilege that EVERY President has been accorded since Executive Privilege was put into place! The Archivist went to the White House to strip that privilege from a former President...something that had NEVER been done before! Joe Biden agreed to do that...again...something that had NEVER been done before! Barack Obama is still going through Presidential documents six years after he left office and the National Archive hasn't raided his home! Bill Clinton sent Sandy Berger to STEAL classified materials! Nobody raided his home! Clinton kept tapes in a sock drawer that the National Archive was asking for! Nobody raided his home!

The Biden DOJ raided the home of an Ex President and presumptive challenger in the next election...something nobody would have even CONSIDERED before now and they did so with a general warrant that they got from a Magistrate not even a full fledged Federal judge! There is a palpable STENCH coming from all of this and it's all going to come out if the GOP takes back control of the House in November!

This post is ignorant to its core.

 

[BWK]

I have actually. Are you claiming that Nixon had his Executive Privilege taken away by Gerald Ford, Lesh? I must have missed that! (eye roll)

Do you understand that there is no executive privilege after you leave office? Do you understand that? If you do, show me where I am wrong?

 

[BWK]

Donald Trump still has a few tricks up his sleeve. none of them legal. none of them moral. violence by his supporters, as we saw on Jan 6, might be one avenue

It's the only avenue. They've abandoned honesty, the truth, the law, and their country. After that, sore losers only have one option.

 

[BWK]

Hey doosh...his press secretary said he had no advance knowledge of the raid.

You just admitted that.

Of course he was aware of the SITUATION,

Why would Biden need to lie? He's not the one who stole top secret classified documents.

 

[BWK]

So what you're saying is they knew a raid was going to happen but not the specifics? So that's like not knowing about the raid? This White House is a joke. They mislead the American people on a daily basis and their pals in the Main Stream Media don't call them on it!

What raid?

 

[BWK]

This is you; Didn't say it did....all that showed however is that Xiden clearly lied when he claimed not to be aware of the situtation...he was directly involved.

acc

This is Lesh; Biden had no advance knowledge of the raid. Period Folks do you see struth's lie?

How can you be directly involved when Biden didn't have advanced knowledge, according to Lesh, who you agreed with?

 

[BWK]

So Lesh...what do you think about the news that broke today that the Biden White House DID know about the raid in advance! Amazing how Joe Biden and his Press Secretary can lie right to the camera, huh? How do you think our two idiots will spin this latest scandal?

Keep calling it a raid fool.

the letter proves he did

Presidents leaving office have always been given a grace period to review documents, Lesh! Barack Obama's people are STILL cataloging his materials and it's been six years. Nixon and Nixon's estate fought to keep some of his documents from the National Archive for thirty years. It has always been a grey area as to what are personal things and what are records deemed to belong in the National Archives. At no time however has ANYONE ever raided a President's home to seize contested records! Not under Nixon. Not under Reagan. Not under Clinton. Not under Obama! It's only THIS Administration that that took it that far!

 

[Lesh]

Presidents leaving office have always been given a grace period to review documents,

Subject to NARA review moron

Not done here...for a year and a half

He knew back in May that the FBI was going to raid Trump's home. Just because Biden didn't know the exact date it was going to happen doesn't mean he didn't have advanced knowledge! Claiming that is laughable!

 

[Lesh]

the letter proves he did

Actually not.
