Earlier this afternoon on Truth Social, President Trump expanded his position on the FBI raid of his Mar-a-Lago home and announced an upcoming motion to the court for violations of his fourth amendment rights against unwarranted search and seizure. [LINK]
The easiest approach for President Trump’s legal team to take would be the generalized nature of the search warrant. The Fourth Amendment specifically prohibits the government using general warrants to search private belongings of individuals.
Fourth Amendment – “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”
The warrant as issued:
The courts are stacked against him. Case will probably be thrown out.
That’s the way cases make there way up to the Supreme Court.
A good article, makes the case that PresTrumps recent (June 19) update to his RICO suit was the impetus for FBI to raid Mar a Lago
His amendment of the RICO suit introduced a wealth of new facts and identified many more defendants specifically and by name, all the way up to Obama
Here’s motive on the Mar-a-Lago raid; or, Dog-paddling outside the OODA loop
The short version up front: the amendments include a raft of details that weren’t in the original complaint , although many of them have been known for years
Both sets of new details, amounting to hundreds of new individual facts offered in evidence (which I will henceforth refer to as “Facts”), are significant.
But it’s very probable that the Facts that got the scalded-cat reaction from DOJ are the mostly long-known items about the baseline Russiagate hoax: revolving around the Steele dossier, leading to the falsified FISA applications, and implicating Hillary Clinton and the DNC.
That’s because they also implicate – or bring into the lawsuit the actions of, in significant detail – the FBI, DOJ, CIA, John Brennan, the Executive Office of the President, Barack Obama’s senior staff, and Barack Obama.
Thank you.
You’re very welcome
And I thank whoever first posted it here couple days ago
It was in a browser tab I had left to read later, the only way I could have been directed to it was by someone posting here at Treehouse
So thanks! first poster
I hope to live to see Zero hang.
Interesting article, thanks!
Dear Nimrodman,
I am trying hard and praying hard to not hate these antagonists.
So far, not winning that battle! I know God will prevail.
I am of this school of thought; that if these creepy people (all those named in your last sentence) intend evil, then evil will be, and hopefully will be, their own just reward.
Thank you for your informative post.
Blessings!
Reply to my above post.
Yikes! Correction: didn’t mean to type that evil will be! Meant to say these evil intentions will be rewarded by evil.
I suffer from FFS. Fat finger syndrome!

thanks, mary
Good article, thanks!
Anyone who thinks President Trump hasn’t been doing enough to fight the injustices done to him needs to read this or sthu. Article also should put to rest any concern about back ups of documentation taken from MAL since his attorneys would have needed them preparing the Complaints.
Not sure I’ll ever read the entire 195 pgs of the amended Complaint but just knowing Obama is referenced 17 x’s in it sure makes me happy!
good point about backups, kf- thanks
I’m skimming this quickly, but it appears that the citations are largely open source?
If this is what they were searching for, how is it any of it classified?
The Neustar GT researcher stuff is interesting. Sleuths Corner had this, also the list of the use of wire facilities…

thx, nichan
And that falls between the dates SD mentioned some time back…
“…What was DC doing between June 3 and August 8?”
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2022/08/13/big-picture-review-all-dc-activity-from-june-3rd-with-new-eyes/
Jeffrey Clark states that the search on his home was part of a nation-wide and well coordinated number of raids on the same day—June 23–that’s only two days after DJT filed his amended complaint on June 21.
The June 3 look see at Mar-a-Lago, Peter Navarro’s arrest on the same day, then a flurry of (June) grabs on Jeffrey Clark (June 23) John Eastman (June 27) first appeared to be related to J6, which the article states:
‘“Nothing I’ve said here or anywhere else is intended to insist that the raid on Mar-a-Lago is not about background information on 1/6, or prejudicing the 2022 election, or keeping Trump out of the 2024 race.”
However, seizing the electronic communications of those men perhaps could also have been a frenzied surveillance roundabout for information (what else do the Trump lawyers have up their sleeve or what more do they intend to use to amend the original complaint, especially after the new names were brought into the complaint—Brennan, Obama, Rosenstein?
And the way things are brought out and into the faces of the American people who are clueless.
sorry didn’t mean to say it twice
Exactemundo, and that is where Trump will win.
It’s called judge shopping. The communist, racist demoncrats do it all the time. Hopefully his lawyers will do the same.
Merrick Garland judge shopped for Judge Bruce Reinhart.
That he has “No standing” I am sure will be the explanation! 🙂
I liked “moot” or “premature”. He was premature to challenge the illegal changes by governors of election laws but then “moot” after the election.
God they wanted and want Trump gone. They could care less about his defense of them and appointment of 3 of them.
Well, that’s pretty negative.
Pathetic.
That is why Trump is Trump. He never backs down from a fight, especially when he knows he is right. We can all take a lesson from him.
Yes he fights.
Imagine an entire Republican party that did the same, save the precious few we know.
Also, I’m sure, he and his attorneys anticipated the potential of a feds raid months ago and had planned accordingly.
Not so sure about that.
SCOTUS has been fairly consistent over the last 40 to 50 years regarding search warrants. Overbroad search warrants are not allowed. Plus there were a few other violations in there as well.
Justice Clarence Thomas is the presiding justice.
Bingo.
Most folks seemed to miss that bit.
Thank God!
Wife’s wardrobe and personal items not included in the warrant as articles being searched or searched for. If Melenia feels violated she is remaining silent – for now.
o
The only plausible reason for the “search” of her clothing would be intimidation, fear-inducement, etc. That, or possibly one or more of the FBI vouyers wanted to fondle her undies or maybe a steal a pair to take home.
“steal a pair to take home”
They make you feel so womanly on a Saturday night at home with a snifter of brandy
And that’s just the guys
That may or may not be true but such a sentiment can also be seen in the rather immature comments in the CTH and elsewhere from “patriots” saying they are not going to even vote because it “will do no good.”
A sacred right and obligation of citizenship should never be forsaken—no matter what the “odds.”
If our ancestors had adopted such a defeatist attitude we would still be speaking the King’s English.
Solid post.
ROLCONS. Anybody here saying they aren’t going to vote are Rolcon trolls or DS trolls, trying to sow discord and mayhem.
Your statement there is a grand generalization stated as a matter of fact with no supporting evidence. You seem to be saying that you know what everyone is thinking and why they are thinking it.
If what you say is true and you know it without having learned it, you are certainly a very powerful person.
Or, on the other hand, it may just be that you are upset because everybody doesn’t think the way you do and they aren’t doing what you want them to do.
YOU have ZERO insight into MY thinking PERIOD. That large brush you used needs to be stuck up your where the sun don’t shine.
Honest to God why can you not use that head and THINK why someone might feel they should NOT vote.
For me PERSONALLY a vote for a RINO is a vote for a DummyCrat so why would I help the enemy.
I will refuse to vote in this or any new elections if the RINO and the DummyCrat are a choice.
Perhaps a 3rd party candidate vote would be my choice but if they are some idiot well nope I will CHOOSE to not vote
My right, my choice, nothing Rolcon or DeepState or whatever DS troll language you choose
How about YOU do you and keep your nose out of other peoples business
You got it. We will never forget the 3rd of November when they stole OUR VOTES,OUR COUNTRY and OUR LIBERTY!
F you, you __________________ fill it in with Sundance’s quote from the article on Cheney’s demise. It has words in it like pontificating and postule.
This is not an English lesson. This is the truth….geesh I’m starting to sound like a missionary.
The “not going to vote” voters are just as dumb and stupid as the dumbest and stupidest Libtard.
a choice between two snakes is hardly dumb or stupid. It’s the choice to not get bitten and hasten my demise
Best to leave the voting to a CHOICE. Nobody here is anybody elses BOSS. The last time I looked you or anyone here contributes to my livelihood
I would counter than those who continue to vote for RINO’s who hasten your demise are perhaps the dumbest and stupidest. Dumb and stupid to keep getting bit by the rattlesnake in the pit.
But YOU do YOU and how about YOU let everyone else be there own Boss.
Last I heard we still are able to make our own choices
If you want Mitch McConnell and his cohorts to continue to shovel sh 8 t down your throat then man have at it.
I never see a reason to fail to simply do everything available. Support every ally, encourage every effort. The ultimate result is up to God.
HUH?
You are dull!
“First they ignore you. Then they laugh at you. Then they attack you. Then you win.”
Obviously he has no standing…
Americans love a fighter, and in PDJT we have a heavyweight champ! I pray for him, his family, and our nation daily.
Only God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit get more prayers from us……and our VSGPDJT is closing in! Haha!
While this crooked judge that signed the phoney warrant might rule against PDT, case law re Presidential Records is firmly established. The original case by Judicial Watch to access Clinton’s records held in his house was ruled unconstitutional by Amy Barrett-Jackson and never appealed. Not a chance this communist search will not be voided at some point
Correction: That was Judge Amy Berman Jackson.
Busy Lizzie is gonna have kitten when she sees this lawsuit.
Everyone with a case has to Sue the bastards back to hell!
Lawfare. Before Trump, it was a one-sided war. And even now, GOPe facies itself on the high road, above the fight. It’s why we lose.
GOPe ae Uniparty vultures to begin with. They won’t do diddly if there’s no money or leverage in it for them.
and THAT is why folks must choose whether they want to continue to feed the BEAST or cut off its head. But hey, keep voting for them or be called dumb and stupid!!!!
Discovery – Here we come!
Them’s fightin’ words
4th Amendment Suggestion.
Formerly known as the 4th Amendment Right.
4th Amendment protection of God given rights.
To a left wing judge, the Constitution is just a piece of paper. How long will it take to push this up to the supreme court? Too long.
The President should declare his candidacy now and turn this affair into a full blown war against the deep state. The sooner it gets politically bloody the sooner he will have them on their heels and be able to focus on the election. It would help like hell if a few republicans joined the fight to save the country along side him.
There are only a few Republicans who would join him.
A handful at best.
The rest are traders to the Republic just like the Democrats are.
You misspeak. Although it is possible only a handful of elected Republicans would join him, 80% of voting Republicans would.
That’s why we have the 2nd. Eliminate the heathen RINOS. That makes the process work faster.
Are you an agent provocateur or something?
but if you choose not to support the RINO you are called dumb and stupid. Sorry man you have to vote for them.
.
No. How many lawsuits do you think one man can deal with at the same time? Lawfare will be coming up with bogus nonsense in every state to keep him off the ballot. And they’ll have lots more time to do so.
In addition, declaring candidacy now lets FEC crawl up his ass w/re donations and the RNC hold out its hand for a share.
Please explain why people keep posting this subversive anti-Trump “strategy”.
.
The best defense is a good offense. They are all coming for him anyway so he might as well get the court cases going early – time is not on his side, it’s on theirs. And calling a head on fight with the people coming after you an “anti Trump strategy” is political cowardice. You must be Only a RINO would think
otherwise.
What Trump needs is a restraining order against the Biden regime.
they would ignore it…they have had many judgments about their overall policies they just ignore if they disagree with them…..look at NY and CA on the recent 2A ruling….right back to violating the right…they do NOT care
Did they take his pens too?
Mike Davis was talking today on The Warroom about the President’s lawyers needing to file a 41 (G) immediately. Hopefully that is what they have done!
“Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 41(g) provides that “[a] person aggrieved by an unlawful search and seizure of property or by the deprivation of property may move for the property’s return.”
Every step of attempting to defend this communist “search” bullshit runs a greater and greater risk of everything the communists attempting to keep from becoming public, in fact becoming public
sounds like a communist’s psycho bable…..
I posted this defense multiple times. Looks like great minds think alike.
There is also a 2012 case decided by Judge Amy Berman Jackson in favor of President Bill Clinton that says the president has the sole right to decide what records are personal within the framework of the Presidential Records Act. The DOJ concurred and said a seizure of any records from a former president would not be allowed. That, along with the president’s sole discretion over declassification of presidential records makes the raid and seizure illegal and unconstitutional.
I wish he wouldn’t wait before midterms. He should get on this right now.
Deep state has a hundred ways of stalling and they will figure out ways to stall him past the elections.
The Left loves to kill babies, elderly people in nursing homes, they’re killing still with experimental vaccines, Blue cities have rampant violent crime. They support a culture of death and are morally bankrupt.
I honestly don’t know why they haven’t tried to kill Trump. I know it’s their fantasy.
For me this is proof that God is protecting him and that our prayers are being answered. Please keep praying, folks!
I put nothing beyond Satan or his useful idiots.
Its been rumored that there have been attempts on his life, but no one is speaking out about it. He does have a good security team (private not owned by the government).
Again Trump complains something should be done, when he WAS the actual person who SHOULD have done something.
Instead he just complains..
Hey, Troll: are you really that obtuse? “he just complains”.
NO, he’s filing a lawsuit. Big difference. He’s DOING SOMETHING about it in a legal way. Doing it the right way.
But that’s probably lost on you.
Thank you !
You said it much more nicely than I was thinking about doing.
Refreshed just in time …
Your welcome to lash out at my rebuttal to his reply if you’d like. 🙂
Enough with the Troll BS, I call like it is. I appreciate Trump for a lot like hitting the Fake Media, But he had the chance to do something about the FBI/DOJ, he was the FRIGGIN President.
There was so much he could have done and didn’t do to blow those organizations up.
Getting rid of Sloppy Steve was his biggest mistake, That was like removing Nukes from your arsenal.
MANY People called for breaking up the FBI and using the US Marshalls, as one example of something He SHOULD have done. They’re criminality Goes WAY back Decades , it’s not like it wasn’t know how corrupted they were even before Trump came down that escalator.
Them’s the facts me’boy and if that’s trolling I guess you call me a racist next. lol
I guess you slept thru the three years of Trump being threatened with obstruction of justice charges if he so much as blinked at the DOJ or the FBI. There was an investigation into the Russia collusion allegations going on. Remember all that??
And those are facts.
Yup! Just replying to emphasize they had his hands tied with the obstruction threat.
Same threat they’ll use here if he releases the docs that they grabbed at the raid. All they want is one thing they can charge him with. If its obstruction or lying to the FBI or whatever made up charge, they don’t care. The goal is to get one to prevent him from running.
Bull. Name one thing he could have done. There is no way the Rhinos would have let him break up the FBI. You have no idea what you are taking about. Go away.
Yup…troll.
I think you have a spider up your leg. He IS. doing something and you are doing nothing but accusing. The original accuser was…?
I don’t remember seeing you here before and I have no inclination to ever see or hear another word from you. Bye.
STFU
HUH?
Go home to china
The arachnid doth protest too much me thinks.
Chata.
Do you have any suggestions about what Trump should have done while in office under the pressure of the Russia Collusion coup d’etat and the Ukraine Blackmail coup d’etat, both launched against him by the federal government? If you have no plausible suggestions, then you need to withdraw your complaint. “Do something!” is not a suggestion, let alone a plausible suggestion.
Don’t feed the troll.
Wife leave you? Again!?
Again cobwebsoup complains…he just complains…and complains again….
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!
I understand your sentiment cobweb.. but there were things happening in his circle that we know nothing about..
there is an old Indian saying.. “..never judge another man until you have walked a mile in his moccasins..”..
have you ever suddenly found yourself in a bad situation.. like in the streets on the wrong side of town.. off your turf.. and on theirs.. and there’s a gang of them closing in on you..
wtf are you going to do.. go down as a ten o’clock news statistic.. or play along in order to extricate yourself and live to fight them another day.. on your own terms.. on your own turf..
Yeah, but if it’s the same corrupt magistrate judge who rules on his 4th amendment motion, then it probably has little chance of success.
That’s why there’s an appeal process. 😉
John Roberts pooping his pants. This will end up in front of SCOTUS.
Up/down on when? Will Roberts still be alive? 2023? 2024?
Amazing how the stroke of the pen can so deplete the assets of patriots, enrich the legal system and the Communists who run it and then, maybe, years later, oh well it was illegal, improper, wrong. Too bad, so sad, suck the cock of tyranny.
America.
Mr. John Roberts has already shown his colors….and they ain’t RED,WHITE AND BLUE!
He had the power to save our great Nation and he failed .
May he eat shit….and die.
If MAGA/America first cannot take back this country then Roberts and all other ‘conservative’ judges will be impeached.
I was just thinking today, Trump has been quiet and now BOOM BOOM BOOM. He never quits fighting.
Timing is everything. Every facet of the “sting” operation is well timed as the exposure and events dictate.
All I can say to team Trump is GO FOR IT.
The broadness of the search is biting their rectum big time
On War Room this evening, Boris Epshytn intimated that PDJT is going to be going hard on offense in the next few days. I wonder if this was what he was alluding to.
More to come……
Let the sun shine in.
There it is. Totally illegal!
leave it to sundance to stay on top of happenings that pertain to law and order, another great job. Thank you
When a client brought me documents the very first thing we did was to scan a 2nd hard copy, upload them to the server, then upload them to an external storage device. Trump never seemed to hire the smartest lawyers. At least not all of them. So maybe the DOJ figured he only had one copy. If he only had one copy that would be a travesty. And malpractice.
Oh Please! SMDH!!
Don’t assume he or his attorneys don’t have back ups. We may never know because announcing he did would be stupid (at least at this point).
You re absolutely correct. I would never prepare a complaint or fila suit without thoroughly fact-checking, collecting all the evidence relating to the complaint and suit (good and ‘bad’). A relatively large number of lawyers have ‘clearance’, specifically those who may be Partners in Firms which represent clients on ‘classified’ matters,.or have access or control over classified material. Judges can have ‘clearance’ for litigation involving classified material or claims.
And it is reported that PDJT declassified the material at Mar a lago.
This will be an interesting choice for crooked judges who want to protect hillary and the FBI/CIA/DOJ.
There is a reason the enemy is threatening his attorneys and raiding their offices in flagrant and unprecedented violation of law. Recall how they bullied Flynn’s lawyers and see their abuse of poor Rudy. Disgraceful.
Can a pattern of abuse by the DOJ be used as evidence of abuse by the DOJ?
Could President Trump use this as evidence of the DOJ bias against him, and attacks on him?
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/federal-appeals-court-rules-doj-must-release-internal-memo-stating-trump-did-not-obstruct-justice
This actually went to court to FORCE the DOJ to release the internal memo from the DOJ to then AG Barr that President Trump DID NOT obstruct justice in the Mueller “investigation”.
The DOJ won’t tell the truth about Trump, they try to hide THAT.
But they will lie about him…
RICO cases require a pattern of criminality.
This warrant should serve as an example of something that violates the 4th Amendment in future legal classes.
Reeks worse than any abuses of Dixiecrats. Truly a stain on our system that must be bleached out. But the psychopaths have total reliance that intimidation is always the way.
‘unwarranted’ search and seizure…
After 1 week,
the raiders say the affidavit would be released next thurs ( 2 weeks after raid ).
Are the nefarious going to hide the full warrant and claim it was ‘warranted’
( redacting elements of the affidavit that was supposedly behind the warrant and / or holding it beyond 2 weeks)?
I say let the dc lawyers argue it to their hearts content…without being paid in any way…
( that would end it, quick )
The Presidential records act legally protects information.
( remember Presidential libraries?)
Lawyer Mike Davis comments:
https://rumble.com/v1gko5l-mike-davis-mar-a-lago-raid-was-absolutely-an-illegal-raid.html
I just wish he would release the documents that prove their all crooked!
In “Trump’s Time” ; whether we like it or not.
Let Trump Be Trump.
I wish PDJT had released the still-hidden JFK murder records. There is no possible ‘national security’ issue anymore. Perhaps this was a ‘favor’ to protect some persons or entity in the US, in exchange for accepting Bill Brr to make the mueller fiasco go away?
You don’t like the virtuous gubmint searching your home ? How terrorist and btw racccissss !
and ‘privileged’ – “Who do you think you are, not wanting the 99% good guys at the FBI having full access to all your records and possessions and home?
Looking ahead….. question for a lurking expert.
Would a President Trump in 2024 be able to also appoint himself AG? Then Appoint a deputy AG to run DoJ and avoid the Senate entirely?
Keep in mind PDJT has one of the best RICO prosecutors on his team, Rudy Guilani who RICO’d numerous criminal organizations
Maybe he can get Lin Wood too !
Or Tippecanoe & Tyler Too!
These losers still think they can bully President Trump into submission as well as we the American people.
Why wouldn’t they ?
The violation of attorney client privilege should be a huge deal. But maybe that right doesn’t apply to conservatives anymore.
Why isn’t Trump showing the videos of fbi search. I hope he isn’t crying wolf..
It would be stupid to show any evidence that may be presented in future court proceedings.
I agree—the founders had it up to their eyeballs with General Warrants! That is our heritage speaking!
OMG!
SMDH!!
The portfolio being built to certify President Trump as the winner of the fraudulent 2020 election has just gotten another entry, President Trump’s filing today, August 19, 2022.
The portfolio’s first entry was a note about a non-event.
That non-event was President Trump not conceding the fraudulent 2020 Presidential election because he didn’t lose it.
Biden cheated to get certified by the democrat / GOPe / media coup in dc.
This is one well organized and documented portfolio and will, in time, be recognized along with the Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution as one of our defining legal documents.
Constitutional law is about to get real (good!).
“Let’s go Brandon!”
I say go for it President Trump. What you have to loose?
Good! Go for it, President Trump. This motion needs to be heard all the way to the Supreme Court.
imho, this is just the beginning of several salvos yet to be fired.
Where can I get the list of salvos ?
The real climax will be Red October.
J.B Williams nailed it when he was talking about the courts and the election theft .
JB. Williams
So, that was yesterday.
It’s an example of how pathetic and useless our courts have been .
So, the supreme court umpire called the first strike completely out of the strike zone.
That is one for the bad guys.
The batter at the plate has a batting average of .800 and is known for holding the home run record and he has NEVER, NEVER been on a losing team.
He has two strikes and 4 balls to go during his time at the plate.
We are waiting for the umpire to call “batter up.”
“Let’s go Brandon!”
Well, the ‘hanging chads’ that might have elected algore had “Standing”, just not multiple states disenfranchised by fraud evidenced and presented under oath.
The FBI’s “Receipt” for the search warrant doesn’t identify ANY documents in any of the boxes they confiscated. It doesn’t even say how many total documents were seized.
So, assuming he wins the lawsuit, how could Trump possibly ensure all documents are returned?
You don’t believe PDJT knows what documents he has?
It’s a legitimate question but you’re clouding the issue. First, the poster is correct; FBI should’ve left an itemized list specifying each individual document. Second, with thousands, maybe tens of thousands of pages, it’s certainly possible to not be able to name every one of those (30,000; 50,000; 140,000, etc) documents taken. Thus, the OP’s question can be prefaced as such:
“What if Trump doesn’t know exactly every document taken….”
Democrats: “Constitution? We do need no stinkin’ Constitution.”
Case in point WH Anti 2A “summit” September 2022. Puppet Biden to be “key speaker.” 😆🤮
Scary what’s happened, happening to our Constitutional Republic. Democrats have appointed themselves the powers that be.
God help us.
Trump probably has copies of all the Documents. He should present them to the court and publicly release them.

Who here hasn’t thought the FBI is monitoring this site for domestic terrorists, has somehow got access to our email accounts and know who we are? Remember like President Trump says they’re after him but they’re really after us We The People who love this Republic and the Constitution that our Founders gave us! Wanting America First is on the way to becoming criminalized as “hate thought”!
you’ll find out come audit season, Bubby
