Attorney General Merrick Garland is scheduled to make a statement to the media, and perhaps answer questions, about the FBI raid on President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home in Florida last Monday. The anticipated time for the press statement is 2:30pm ET. Livestream Links below.
UPDATE: VIDEO ADDED
Appearing nervous, Merrick Garland read carefully, very carefully, from a prepared script on the teleprompter. He offered no extraneous remarks and took no questions. He spoke for approximately 4 minutes:
PBS Livestream Link – LiveFox Livestream Link – USA Today Livestream Link
.
The DOJ has yet to release any documents related to the executed search warrant, nor the list of items taken from the Mar-a-Lago compound.
[Media] Months before federal investigators executed a search warrant this week on former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate, the 45th president was served a subpoena aiming to recover documents authorities believed he had failed to turn over earlier in the year, according to The New York Times.
CTH has a strong idea of the content of some documents. We will be updating that information today.

They don’t care how it looks. These people committed treason and got away with it. You think they give a damn what the voters think?
Voters Schmoters; it’s all rigged and it’s all about robbing the People’s Treasury. They don’t care about anything else.
Hey Garland you better take the fall I got a recording of the call
I hope the FBI at least brought back a pair of panties in Merrick’s size.
If the ‘evidence’ fits …
History is going to be merciless with these clowns. After America gets done with them, of course.
I wonder if some of the agents were sniffing Melania’s panties?
Delete.
More disgustingly, did they bring back a pair for Pedjoe to sniff ?
Looks like he will need Depends!
Please, that comment and others like it are totally disgusting!!
I agree, I pray it stops.
not as disgusting as what the agents did
get a grip and laugh at a joke for once
they probably stuffed them in their pockets
I want Jack Poso to read the statement made by Garland on air…in his cry baby Milley voice.
Flop sweat.
He said a whole lot of hooey
BREAKING 🚨 The Department of Justice is moving to unseal the search warrant and the itemized receipt of what was taken from former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence earlier this week.
https://t.me/THEREALTORIABROOKE/24328
But not the justification for a “raid”?
I wonder how many things they put on there that they actually did not get there?
Or left documents out that they took.
The warrant does not contain the evidence presented to obtain it. Just like “collusion” the warrant was legit but the evidence used to get it was not. They’re using the same play.
They always leave something out, don’t they!
Unsealed the probable cause.
From a redacted ‘source’ that there were classified docs at MAL. Same old story, same old song and dance.
.
Since when does a law enforcement agency have to ask permission from a judge to give the target of a search warrant a receipt of what was removed from their home? Assuming the search warrant itself was “sealed”, when was the receipt of what was removed “sealed”?
.
I would think a person is entitled to know why they were raided.
Why would we believe one thing they say, do or write?
Please refer to Sundance article Phase #1. #2 & #3 et al.
Russia-spygate-hoax, hoax, hoax..
Why would any one care what shit they now produce to cover up their lying ways.
Inventory what was seized then add it to the search warrant template then unseal the warrant.
Backfire – Backlash!
Tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies….also a Fleetwood Mac song….
The Epstein files need to be released. Is this ‘magistrate’ judge on the customer list with videotape?
The Epetein files must be released so that the CIA/FEDs cannot continue to use it to blackmail epstein’s ‘customers’.
The GOPe should ‘subpoena’ the epstein, hunter biden, seth rich, and wikileaks records.
(but of course, to the extent that GOPe and donors are involved, that will not happen. So that the CIA/FBI can continue to control the ‘movie stars’. Giving new relevance to the old saying that “politics is hollywood for ugly people in Epstein films”)
There is no reason for the Epstein files to be hidden.
the only question is if they knew what they were looking for and the property
list says something like we took 4 boxes of documents and some phones.
how does that justify 9 hours search.. THey talk the supeona so they
clearly would know what they were looking for and likely where it was
if the story of the locked basement door is true..
So why 9 hour search? Why Melania closet?
So why 9 hour search? Fishing.
Why Melania closet? Panties.
Safes are very commonly placed in bedroom closets. The FIB agents were more than likely making sure that there weren’t other safes in the residence.
Yes, the safe located in Melania’s dresser.
There could have been a stash in one of her very high heels. How about in the heel itself?
Scumbag liars don’t get the benefit of the doubt.
Threfor: panty sniffers.
Senator Mitch McConnell has distinguished himself in numerous ways, often not meritorious. BUT, he did keep Merrick Garland off the Supreme Court.
McConnell was saving him for this moment …
They moved him to justice which “by pure chance” opened the space on behalf of Kiddie-Porn Ketanji.
Brillant, best take of the day!
Yeah so Garland can be in position where he is doing more damage.
Exactly
Nope. Don’t do it EM. Don’t do it.
On the court there was other justices to keep him in check. He is far more dangerous and destructive heading the DOJ
Wake me up when the Turtle leads the charge to impeach Meritless Garland.
He has yet to condemn the outrageous and unprecedented raid of PDJT.
McConnell likely kept Garland off the court in the belief he could extract more quid pro quo from an incoming Clinton administration.
And I wonder if Garland should RECUSE himself. He obviously is angry over not being with the Supremes & has TDS/bias because Pres. Trump didn’t nominate him.
Garland id a political hack supporting the socialist democrat agenda to prevent trump from being elected president. There is no justification for the egregious sicking the KGB (criminal fbi) to raid a former presidents compound. Only in Russia, N Korea, Cuba, Venezuela and now America do black SUV’s unmarked and bullet proof vested in plain clothes burst into a home, no one can see a warrent, rooms destroyed, the terrorist nation AG Garland backs up the criminal activities Nd then the process of coverup begins.
Time to put an end to the federal government that is demonstrating to be an enemy of the people by calling for a convention of states to declare the federal government a delibert agitation and alien to principles of the Constitution and the socialist democrats in congress an enemy of the people.
Is he a dual citizen?
Does he place America First when he makes key decisions?
Left unsaid shaken Garland , “they should have just stuck with spying / wiretapping and leaking , a safer approach and will remember that in the future – thank you and goodnight Gracie”
Substitute ‘Melania’s panties’ for ‘Hunter’s laptop’ –
Q to Wray: Did the FBI take possession of Melania Trumps panties? Wray: I don’t know.
Q to Wray: Who in the FBI examined Melania Trumps panties? Wray: Due to an ongoing investigation I cannot comment.
Q to Wray: Why were Melania Trumps panties examined? Wray: Due to an ongoing investigation I cannot comment.

This post you created is rather smart and on target…very well done!

Did the reporter yelling out his question — as Garland shuffled out — just ask if the former president was CIA . . .?
No, the current “president” is CIA. Communist In Action.
OH. Taping of 45’s depo in SDNY yesterday?
No, I’m right now watching Community, by far the funniest series ever made, and that came to mind because I really don’t give a damn about any of this.
This republic was lost decades ago. It’s just that it has now become extremely obvious to more people.
And now, back to the Community comedy instead of the tragicomedy we’re living.
Same episode. Biden was VP at the time.
On our afternoon dog walk, I hurried my K9 so we could listen to Garland. I feel bad for poor Rebel the Dog now, the AG said almost nothing. One thing tho, PRESIDENT Donald J Trump and most Americans are living rent-free in these clowns brains. And I’m glad!
If you made Rebel the Dog listen to Garland, I’m calling the Humane Society on you!
LOL 😆
lol
Why did they seal all this ( I know) only now to unseal it
did they really think POTUS would say nothing as Garland
pointed out POTUS was the one who mentioned the raid?
Of course he did..surely they didnt; think he would keep
quite about it?
And
Yes. We The People have no reason not to be 45”s counsel.
Whereas, We The People have ever reason to NOT believe the DOJ/FBI.

“Tribe” members every one just like their Lawfare allies … and “they” are directly responsible for Antisemitism.
You forgot Secy of Defense Austin and Joint Chiefs’ Chair Milley. Wow. We’re in a world of hurt with this crew “running” things.
Liz Cheney is ashamed of her own party for attacking the integrity of the FBI…
“Supportable by oath or affirmation”…oh anybody can make up anything they want – you know, like phony “dossiers” – and that’s good enough for the FBI and Federal judges these days.
Disband the FBI.
Liz is a vile pig.
This type of messaging (OUT OF NO WHERE!) by Wray yesterday, Garland earlier and now Cheney and others, is the kind of thing that could make honest rational good people ask – “They’re about to start rounding people up, aren’t they?”.
And about 166,000 IRS agents who will be armed & ready to use deadly force. Nothing to see here.
Things would have turned out so much better if Dick Cheney spent more time with his daughter when she was younger.
Quail hunting…:)
He’s blown through a LOT of money with that 30 second attack on Trump, “vote for my daughter ad” on Fox.
Obviously, HE is not paying for it, which just show you they still have effing donors who desperately don’t want Trump to run.
did you read or hear about the guy/group who spent thousands of dollars
for an airplane streaming service? Spent the money on writing
“ha, ha, ha, ha, ha”. This shows how dumb they are. Couldn’t think
of something to say that was at least interesting?
Lizard, your comments about President Trump and his supporters put the real Patriots at risk.
Your WY R party is ashamed of you which is why they censored you.
Oh *F* Off sanctimonious Lizard Lizzy.
She is aiming for 10% – of the vote in the primary, that is!
Keep talking Lizzie. You will be the only rep in history to get zero votes. Your challenger is 50 points ahead as it is.
So Lizzie is ashamed of Democrats? (She did indicate “my party”.)
I am surprised she said she is ashamed of her party. I have not seen any criticism from any neverTrumper.
No way. Liz is shameless.
Spit !
Wow, she’s working hard to get below 10% in the election next week…
Old Dick sure got it wrong last week when he called Trump the greatest threat to our democracy just a few days before the FBI executed an armed raid of Pres. Trump’s home. The shock troops of the FBI need to be arrested and prosecuted and people like Liz Cheney need to be destroyed.
What a moron! I love it when politicians get all “holier than thou” and
start pontificating.
Her husband is a partner in a DC firm with a NYC office. A partner in NYC is representing Hunter with his legal problems. The firm also represents companies that are tied to the China government in military, intelligence & security operations
So she”s living comfortably like a Democrat. What a disgustingbPOS.
All lies! I don’t believe a darn word this vermin says.
OK watching the video here: https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/08/nothing-absolutely-nothing-trump-attorney-christina-bobb-fbis-raid-mar-lago-monday-video/
This attorney did get the warrant. That’s new information. They did get nothing apparently, but what’s in the warrant?!
Ah! That’s what’s missing. The supporting documentation! The warrant itself is flimsy boiler-plate. Still there should be a SCOPE of the warrant described within.
The warrant is nothing more than a piece of paper giving the authorities who give it to you authorization from a judge to search your premises.
They did not give her the affidavit or supporting documents to justify the warrant At first she said they showed her the warrant from 10 feet away, maybe they gave her a copy afterwards but not the supporting documents
Josh Blackman: Several commentators have suggested that Trump should announce his candidacy early–before the midterms–to pre-empt any indictments. The thinking goes that DOJ would not prosecute President Biden’s opponent in the run-up to the election. I think this thinking is flawed. The fact that Garland signed off on this search, even as Trump is signaling he will run, suggests that the election would not halt a criminal investigation. There is no statute that would bar a prosecution of Trump, even as he goes through the nomination process. The most likely outcome is that Garland would appoint a special counsel to investigate, and even prosecute Trump, as Biden runs for re-election. If you thought the Mueller investigation was unwieldy, this special counsel prosecution would be far, far more unconstrained.
We are veering into uncharted territories if the incumbent president is prosecuting the former president who is running for re-election. And even if Trump is convicted, he still would not be disqualified.

What happens if they tried to say he can;t run due to that silly statute yet people write him in
and he wins….do they overturn the will of the people?
I am afraid anything could happen now
Yes. They already did that in 2020.
The downside to announcing before the results of the mid term are that every 2022 D candidate at all levels will be running against Trump.
Nothing will stop them – regardless of when he announces.
Trump should announce, but not to pre-empt the DOJ. He should announce because it’s the Declaration of War that this country desperately needs. Gloves off, game on. Trump announcing his Presidential Run also opens up the AGENDA of the second Trump administration: which is the total and complete take-down of the administrative state.
the FBI gets disbanded
the DOJ leadership gets fired and then prosecuted
the IC loses their ability to spy on Americans
the Government Employees lose their protected status and become at-will employees fireable by the President
Game on.
Indignant POS
nervous and scared pos.
He looks like a Doonesberry cartoon.
Lol, I was thinking the very same!
We are patiently waiting for DJT to make a statement……This ought to be good……Getting my popcorn

How???
Judicial Watch already went to court yesterday and the judge ruled that the warrant has to be unsealed no later than
Aug 15.
Garland is just catching up.
3:27 PM · Aug 11, 2022
Actually, the judge said they need to reply to the request by Aug 15. The way the judge worded it made it clear he expected them to give a rationale as to why they shouldn’t unseal it.
It’s all the same because that thing is gonna redacted up the wazoo.
but what about the ‘sealed’ allegations necessary to grant a warrant.
An oath signed by a secret person is unverifiable, and no evidence at all if it can’t be examined for lies.
Getting a bogus search warrant from Epstein’s lawyer: $2,000 in donations.
Sending 36 heavily armed FBI agents and DOJ personnel to FL, to raid a President’s home and bust open his personal safe: $14.3 Million.
Returning to DC with Melania’s underwear, and then threatening Americans making fun of them: Priceless.
MasterClowns
are we sure they didn’t investigate and confiscate Melania’s bras for ‘sniffer joe’?
Panty raid….as the country descends into madness.
Why doesn’t the FBI want to release the “probable cause” affidavit for melania’s intimate wardrobe search? Was the affidavit signed by ‘sniffer joe’ or ‘merrick garland with sworn reasons for their desired use for these items?
We read there was a mole-spy who told the FBI exactly where the desired items for the ‘sniffer joe’ panty raid were located. Who is this panty-raid spy, and what was the payoff? non-release of the Epstein files
Windbag… word salad..
Yes .. President Trump needs to make a public statement.
POTUS should say something like I would like to invite AG Garland
to Bedminster to watch the surveillance video of his honorable people
behaving badly..With my TEAM of lawyers and SS present of course.

One word, liar.
they want the documents trump and ratcliffe declassified. the DOJ/FIB will say they were never declassified. if that is the case, they will fail at that narrative. to many witnesses.
one of the docs is jon brennan telling obama about hillary’s plans for the russia collusion hoax in october of 16.
Lawfare written all over it…
The man who oversaw the unprecedented raid of the home of a former president (and went DAYS without making a statement) now wants us to believe he is concerned about “integrity” .
That. Is. Rich.
Maggot Garland belongs at some liberal, East Coast college teaching first year Constitutional Law for stoners.
What an embarassment. He needs to resign and so does Monaco. Lisa needs to return Melania’s drawers too.
Better start counting your spoons, America.
They were looking to see if Trump still had the mattress sticker that says do not remove under penalty of law on his mattress
That is a serious crime, but not as serious as removing the tags from the pillows. That will get you 20 to life. I am sure they were hoping to see those tags missing. Figured they might be in the safe or hidden in with Melania’s undies. Too bad the press didn’t ask him about that.
“This land is their land and this land is their land…from California to the New York Island”
What a putz. Can you imagine him on the Supreme Court?
What Garland said was this….suck it America.
Video on Jack Posobiec’s twitter page shows Fake News ABC tribe member blaming criticism of Merrick “The Beak” Garland on the fact that he’s “Jewish” (not because he’s a corrupt ideologue). No surprise the tribal shyster is resorting to the “AntiSemitism” angle, they have nothing else.
They use that accusation as a weapon to silence you–if you talk about George Soros or central bankers they call you an anti-semite.
No one believes them anymore and of greater import, no one can be bothered to pretend to.
Save your documents traitor.
Merrick Garland looks scared out of his wits when he first stepped out.
The nuclear bombs that the American People have been dropping on their elected representatives is off the charts. I have called my rep and emailed. Twice in 2 days. I’ve been checking his official website daily to see when or if he will EVER make a statement condemning the FBI and calling for the agency to be disbanded, Wray arrested, and Garland fired. Then arrested.
They all thought this would go over like gangbusters with the public. This guy is getting his ass handed to him in phone call after phone call after phone call from members of Congress. There’s a DOJ hotline that I bet is also on fire. He should be scared. His job isn’t just at risk, his personal freedom is at risk. This was a criminal act by the FBI, the DOJ and the Federal judge who violated multiple ethics laws to sign a warrant against a President the judge considered his personal enemy. It’s not like the FBI didn’t know the judge was an avowed Trump Hater. If there is ever an actual investigation of the FBI, we’ll find emails and texts between senior officials discussing that they would go to this specific judge. Bank on it.
There’s a lot of people at the FBI and DOJ smashing cell phones this week.
Garland says “…probable cause”…”…faithful adherence to the rule of law…” “…without fear or favor…” “…evenhanded application, due process, presumption of innocence…”
paraphrase: UNLESS you are are Donald J. Trump or parents attending a school board meeting, or anyone opposing the Brandon Administration and it’s communist minions.
He spoke for 3 minutes and told us nothing – now don’t you feel sympathetic to the poor victims of this raid – the Feds?
Has Trump responded on Truth Social yet??

My attorneys and representatives were cooperating fully, and very good relationships had been established. The government could have had whatever they wanted, if we had it. They asked us to put an additional lock on a certain area – DONE! Everything was fine, better than that of most previous Presidents, and then, out of nowhere and with no warning, Mar-a-Lago was raided, at 6:30 in the morning, by VERY large numbers of agents, and even “safecrackers.” They got way ahead of themselves. Crazy!
What? Not 4 AM with CNN on hand?
I see the talking point defense that they seem to have settled on is “ the integrity” defense – to question the “integrity’ of the the government actors and activities is unpatriotic – pretty weak ,… won’t have sell date past this weekend
That’s pretty ___ing weak, as they say. This is not the presser of a guy who thinks the DOJ has a leg to stand on. They raided Pres. Trump using shock troops and safe cracking locks and spent 9 hours executing a warrant that they could have finished in 30 minutes. There is no version of “justice” that involves using shock troops to raid a home where there is no threat, a home that is funded by the government and has security better than most government facilities (no risk of classified getting out) and a home where the homeowner and his staff have been sharing information with the government for months.
It’s like sending Seal Team 6 to break up a fistfight at the Little League World Series.

Is it possible that the Swamp is blind to how they appear to most of America? They are in a bubble and they don’t realize how popular Trump is with the “folks”.
Is it possible that the Swamp is blind to how they appear to most of America?
Absolutely!
I have a sister I will disown after mom dies. I have SIL’s I don’t talk to now. You cannot have a rational conversation with these people. They know it all and we a just ignorant rubes in their eyes.
it doesn’t matter if they are blind or not because they no longer care. they have brought all their corruption out in the open for all the world to see without even a smidgen of fear
It isn’t even that they are blind. They DO NOT CARE (not yelling, just emphasizing) how they appear. We are all stupid and beneath their contempt and they will treat us accordingly.
