A lot of people are discussing the recently released search warrant authorized by a sketchy judge in Florida. For the best legal analysis, I would direct people to our friend Techno Fog via substack: SEE HERE – Techno is, and has been, totally dialed in on a granular level throughout the Trump term in office.
I would emphasize one major point and draw attention to something in the background that almost no-one noticed years ago.
First, the search warrant was not specific, was not detailed, was not drawn out to avoid targeting ancillary items unrelated to the DOJ mission at heart. The warrant itself was structured to seize every scintilla of documentary evidence, seen, created, or produced during President Trump’s term in office. Literally every shred of paper. [WARRANT LINK]
This issue stands out for a host of reasons. One of them speaks to the mindset of a judge who would authorize the raid itself. What judge would authorize a raid on the home of the president with the parameters to seize “Any government and/or presidential record created between January 20, 2017 and January 20, 2021?”
That’s literally everything, including Christmas cards, notes, letters of appreciation from Americans, internal correspondence, the works. Every shred of documentary evidence associated with the office of the President from the day he stepped into office until the day he left. That’s the parameters for the seizure.
If that doesn’t showcase the targeting effort, nothing will. That is an absurd demand that no president in the history of this nation has ever faced. No DOJ official in any capacity past or present would ever consider that an appropriate parameter for a document seizure, until now. THAT showcases the intensity of the DOJ and FBI effort to target Donald J Trump.
Against that backdrop I would also draw attention to something almost everyone forgot or didn’t know.
The same DOJ voices that are behind this current effort are the same voices that literally, and unlawfully, took every single document from the President Trump transition team in 2017.
Most people have forgotten, but in a massive breach of established protocol and legal structure, the Robert Mueller special counsel illegally took custody of the Trump transition documents from every official who was then entering office. The issue was only discovered mid-December of 2017 [pdf link]:
.
From the letter:
Not only did the General Services Administration give the Mueller special counsel all of the Trump transition team information, but the special counsel lied about asking for it and receiving it.
What we see today in the search warrant from the Mar-a-Lago raid is an extension of this exact same DOJ effort. It is one long continuum.
There is no greater example of political targeting than what we are witnessing right now.
(Techno) […] Garland also proclaimed yesterday that “the Department of Justice would speak through its court filings and its work.” Nobody believes that. Certainly Garland doesn’t. But he lies to the public anyway. It’s the height of cynicism.
No doubt the DOJ is speaking to its friends in the media on background or off the record. We couldn’t notice that yesterday, after Garland’s statement, it was leaked to the Washington Post that “classified documents relating to nuclear weapons were among the items FBI agents sought in a search of former president Donald Trump’s Florida residence.” (more)
If the warrant had stated with particularity the items to be seized and the places to be searched, it would not have taken 9 hours to conduct the search.
The Search Warrant, without even looking at the supporting Affidavit, will ultimately be found to be invalid.
To all the smart folks, help me out. Couldn’t Trump just make a few copies of all these docs and quietly put a thumb drive or two is various safety deposit boxes?
Anything anywhere under his name is subject to search and seizure by the democrate gestapo.
Well, I would.
My guess is if he had documents showing who participated in the Russia Russia collusion & implicating somebody like Ovomit, he’s got copies somewhere. Same with all the other attacks.
Where we’re headed is the FJB’s DOJ wants him to have nothing to prove his innocence when they prosecute him for being Donald Trump.
he’s smart enough to know the snakes behavior…
That’s what I was thinking
The dirty bastards are out to destroy our Constitutional Republic.
Shades of Venezuela?

Sundance, I believe you may be misreading the document.
The warrant says any government and/or presidential record that is illegally possessed pursuant to 18 U.S.C. sections 793, 2071 and 1519. Not every single record. The record has to be illegally possessed.
Now, there is a dispute of what documents are illegally possessed. I believe none of them are.
Under the compromised & corrupt DOJ/FBI, anything they find, they will take out of context, leak to the media, issue more subpeonas, feed the relevant material to the J6 Committee, & on & on. Plus the Court ordered his tax returns be released.
I just wish we could target ANY Democrat, maybe Adam Schiff & do to him what they’ve done to Pres. Trump, 24/7, 365 days/yr.
Pres. Trump is the bravest man I have ever seen
One of those statutes makes it illegal to drive any document, photo or anything at all from government premises, regardless of who created the material or its classification level. They took every damned thing, hoping to find something to hang him with. Again.

How come we’ve never heard of the Trump Presidential Archive ?
When Clinton and Obama left office we heard nonstop about the shrine the nation built to their Presidencies. It was on the news all the time they mentioned it and talked about it.
With Trump is just one big goose egg – never heard about it once out of sight out of mind.
Now they’ve stolen everything.
I suspect their 1984 committees will erase the Trump Presidency. They’ll just leave it out of their new commie history.
The Obama Center does not contain any presidential papers…Because it’s a sports-facility?
This un-elected 4th arm of gov’t (i.e., “Intelligence” dept.) really is without redemption & their sorry behinds need to hit the unemployment line. (After We The People publically prosecute & punish them for being traitors.) Start at the local & state level & cut out their foundation.)
MAGA/SA!
