EXCLUSIVE: Was there a Mar-a-Lago RAT? Retired FBI agent says 'informant' likely handed over evidence that led to 'unprecedented' raid - and agents wanted documents before 'they disappeared'

    Retired FBI Special Agent Michael Tabman said it's likely an 'informant' revealed information to the FBI that led to the raid of Trump's home on Monday
    'I think somebody gave them information indicating that these documents are there,' Tabman told DailyMail.com in a Tuesday interview
    The FBI raided Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate on Monday in apparent relations to a probe into him taking official White House documents to Florida
    Tabman said there was likely a breakdown in cooperation between Trump and the FBI that led to the raid
    Explained: 'You got evidence that you need to get before it disappears or it moves and you can't see it anymore'

Top GOP Senators Stay Quiet About FBI’s Mar-A-Lago Raid

Several members of the Republican Senate leadership team were slow to respond to the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) Monday search of Mar-a-Lago, with the two top Republicans in the upper chamber not commenting at all.

Conference Chairman John Barrasso of Wyoming, Senatorial Committee Chairman Rick Scott of Florida, and Vice Conference Chairwoman Joni Ernst of Iowa were the only members of McConnell’s six-senator leadership team to release statements on the raid, as of Tuesday afternoon. Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, Whip John Thune of South Dakota, and Policy Committee Chairman Roy Blunt of Missouri have not commented publicly.

McConnell appeared at a press conference Tuesday afternoon in his home state as he surveyed flooding that has left at least 37 dead. He declined to answer a question about Trump, saying, “I’m here today to talk about the flood, and the recovery from the flood.”

McConnell, Thune and Blunt did not respond to the Daily Caller’s request for comment on the matter.

Despicable.   9999hair out0000
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Yes, but sealed things with a high interest factor often get leaked, notwithstanding the sealing.

Did this same magistrate judge recuse himself in another Trump case?  If so, he had zero business signing a search warrant.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

I guess that would depend on why he recused himself.

Apparently, one of the explanations that is being bandied about for this raid is the theory that if Trump is convicted for mishandling government documents, then he would be barred from holding public office - including the presidency - under 18 USC 2071.

However, that statute is quite possibly unconstitutional as applied to the office of the president.  The Constitution imposes three requirements for a person to be the president:  be at least 35 years of age, be a natural born US Citizen, and have lived in the US for at least 14 years.  There is no requirement that the individual in question not have a criminal record, even a federal criminal record.

Accordingly, as applied to the office of the president, 18 USC 2071 would effectively be imposing an additional requirement for a person to qualify as the president over and above what the Constitution requires, and as such would be unconstitutional.

I think this argument has great merit.

And I might add; people had the audacity to compare Trump to Hitler!! I wonder what those azzhats are thinking now???

Well, to be fair, every sitting Republican president is automatically compared to Hitler.
Nothing new or special in that  :shrug:

Yep, he likely shepherded Hillary's hubby onto one of Epstein joyrides so had to recuse himself due to association with Hillary, not Trump

Exclusive — John Solomon: Whistleblower Said FBI Office Behind Mar-a-Lago Raid Has a Political Manipulation Problem

John Solomon says that whistleblowers from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) warned of “political manipulation” at the FBI’s Washington Field Office, which conducted a raid on Monday of former President Donald Trump’s personal residence at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida.

FBI Director Christopher Wray has not “taken” the whistleblowers’ allegations of partisan political corruption at the FBI “as seriously as the proof and evidence now merit,” Solomon stated.

“We had whistleblowers, just last week, [who] said there’s political manipulation of the cases going on,” Solomon said of Sen. Chuck Grassley’s (R-IA) recent claims of “multiple FBI whistleblowers” warning of partisan political manipulation of some of the bureau’s investigations. Grassley’s office wrote:
