The specific level of GOPe misinformation; a constructed narrative currently advocated by Karl Rove; surrounding the release of the FBI affidavit justifying the raid on President Trump’s home, is very telling.
I’ll have more on that later; suffice to say, it’s clear now the republican wing of the DC UniParty knew the plan all along, and yes, the downstream consequences align with the instructions to the created Trump alternative, Ron DeSantis. This is all organized.
Review Techno Fog article for the legal perspective on the affidavit [SEE HERE]. From my perspective it becomes important to talk about the bigger picture of what lies behind this entire operation.
First, as to the documents themselves, the general public is clueless about how classified documents exist. Some even believe classified documents are never copied, which is stunningly false. All source material is held at the originating agency in its original form. All versions of documents that are provided to stakeholders in government, including the President are copies.
A well-known example of multiple copies of classified documents -as assembled- is the Daily Presidential Brief. The president is never given the originating source classified document of anything. The president, like all other users of classified material, would receive a copy for review. Declassification is done by declassifying the copy and then the declassification directive travels back to the originating agency for them to change the classification status of the original.
We know now, with direct information from both media and the shape of the DOJ/FBI statements, that the documents held by President Trump in his Mar-a-Lago home are documents showing malfeasance and targeting by the DOJ and FBI surrounding the false accusations of a Trump-Russia collusion case.
[Jan 19, 2021 – Presidential Memorandum Declassifying Trump-Russia Documents] In essence, the documents are the evidence behind the Trump targeting operation, and the collusion network between Main Justice and U.S. media. This should not be a surprise.
As a result, the DOJ/FBI main justice operation from Washington DC was centered around retrieving the evidence of their own corrupt -and generally illegal- activity against Trump.
This motive explains the need for main justice to use the presidential records act, coordinated in concert with the national archives, to justify the document retrieval mission. Main Justice is trying to throw a bag over the trail of documentary evidence of their own misconduct. That is the underlying nature of this effort.
President Trump, his advisors and his lawyers, have stated unequivocally that during his administration President Trump declassified the documents in question. [SEE HERE] He declassified them from the copy he was provided to review.
However, as noted in the January 20, 2021, memo above from the office of the president, the agencies, specifically the DOJ and FBI, held a motive to not follow through on the declassification order itself.
This conflict between President Trump declassifying the evidence of DOJ and FBI misconduct, and the DOJ and FBI refusing to declassify the evidence – for obvious reasons, is the originating source of the issue. Inasmuch as the DOJ may attempt to stop Trump by using lawfare against him, ultimately in a court of law this conflict should come out.
In the biggest of big pictures, President Trump has no legal exposure. However, the FBI and DOJ need to leverage the appearance of illegal conduct in order to continue their ongoing targeting operation, which, as you can clearly see, has a very specific agenda behind it. Charging Donald Trump with any form of criminal conduct will ultimately fail.
The sunlight upon the background of the conflict is averse to the interests of the officials making the criminal accusations. The truth has no agenda and the best defense President Trump carries is just that, the truth.
It is important to remember, the presidential records act –the presented pretext for the document conflict– is not a criminal statute. An FBI raid cannot be predicated on a document conflict between the National Archives and a former president.
The FBI affidavit, which leads to the search warrant and the subsequent raid on Mar-a-Lago, could -by its very nature- only be justified if it related to records the U.S. government deems “classified” and material vital to national security interests. Hence, DOJ National Security Division involvement, and all of the documents and affidavit are framed around this pretext.
Main Justice could not conduct the operation to retrieve the evidence of their corruption, if they did not shape the operation as an investigation giving the impression that national security was compromised. The baseline is the ruse. The predicate behind the retrieval operation is false.
♦ So, what are the DOJ and FBI so desperate to retrieve?
In broad terms there are two sets of documents that intermingle and are directly related. First, documents that highlight the activity of Hillary Clinton’s team in creating the false Trump-Russia conspiracy theory (2015/2016). Second, documents that highlight the activity of government officials targeting Donald Trump within the same timeframe (Crossfire Hurricane), that continued into 2017, 2018 and 2019 (Robert Mueller).
Think of the two sets of documents as evidence against two teams working in synergy. Team one (Clinton) was outside government. Team two (DOJ/FBI) was inside government. The documents pertain to both groups but are also divided. That helps to explain the wording of the memo above.
The documentary evidence against the outside group (Clinton et al) would also involve government documented evidence as the DOJ/FBI inside group interacted with them. Notes from interviews, materials provided, FBI 302 summaries of interviews, etc.
We can extract a lot of information on the first sets of evidence from the lawsuit filed by President Trump in March of this year, mostly against the outside actors. [LINK HERE]
The lawsuit was filed against specific persons and most of those persons were interviewed by the FBI as part of the originating investigation. Within the subjects of the lawsuit we find names and groups including:
Hillary Clinton, Hillary for America Campaign Committee, DNC, DNC Services Corp, Perkins Coie, Michael Sussmann, Marc Elias, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Charles Dolan, Jake Sullivan, John Podesta, Robby Mook, Phillipe Reines as well as Fusion GPS, Glenn Simpson, Peter Fritsch, Nellie Ohr, Bruce Ohr, Orbis Business Intelligence, Christopher Steele, Igor Danchenko, Neustar Inc., Rodney Joffe, James Comey Peter Strzok, Lisa Page, Kevin Clinesmith and Andrew McCabe.
In addition to being named in the lawsuit, many of those names were interviewed by the FBI as part of the origination of the Trump-Russia investigation, and/or part of the ongoing investigation of the Trump-Russia fabrication. Each of those interviews would carry an FD-302 report summarizing the content of the interview, the questions and answers given.
The totality of those 302 documents is a lot of evidence likely consisting of hundreds of pages.
For the government officials on the inside, in addition to 302’s (ex Bruce Ohr) there would be documents of communication between them.
Think about the full unredacted text messages between Lisa Page and Peter Strzok as an example. The DOJ publicly released over 600 pages of those text messages, and that wasn’t all of them. The text messages were also redacted, under claims of privacy and national security. We can assume any version of these text messages declassified by President Trump would not be redacted. Hence, you go back to the January 20th memo and see the notes about “privacy.”
We also know there are many pages of communication between DOJ lawyer Lisa Page and her boss in the FBI Andrew McCabe. Almost none of them were ever made public; but they exist. This internal communication is likely the type of material contained in both the “binder,” left for the DOJ to release, and the boxes at Mar-a-Lago to be used as evidence against the named defendants in the lawsuit.
Bruce Ohr has 302’s and emails relating to his involvement as a conduit between Fusion GPS and the FBI. Some of those were released in redacted form, and some of them were never released. Additionally, Nellie Ohr, Bruce’s wife, who worked at Fusion GPS invoked spousal privilege when called to testify before the House committee investigating the issues. However, it is almost certain the FBI interviewed her so there are likely 302’s on Nellie Ohr.
Chris Steele, Igor Danchenko and Rodney Joffe were also interviewed by the FBI. Those 302’s were never released. Presumably John Durham has stakeholder equity in that part of the Trump-Russia hoax, but the documentary evidence prior to January 20, 2021, that exists outside the special counsel could also be records at Mar-a-Lago.
Then we get to the big stuff…. The records and evidence in unredacted and declassified state, that would drive the DOJ-NSD to claim vital national security interests.
The NSA compliance officer notified NSA Director Admiral Mike Rogers of unauthorized use of the NSA database by FBI contractors searching U.S. citizens during the 2015/2016 presidential primary. That 2016 notification is a classified record.
The response from Mike Rogers, and the subsequent documentary evidence of what names were being searched is again a classified record. The audit logs showing who was doing the searches (which contractors, which agencies and from what offices), as noted by Director Rogers, was preserved. That is another big-time classified record.
In addition, we would have Admiral Rogers writing a mandatory oversight notification to the FISA court detailing what happened. That’s a big and comprehensive classified record, likely contained in the documents in Mar-a-Lago… and then the goldmine, the fully unredacted 99-page FISA court opinion detailing the substance of the NSA compromise by FBI officials and contractors, including the names, frequency and dates of the illegal surveillance. That is a major classified document the Deepest Deep State would want to keep hidden.
These are the types of documents within what former ODNI John Ratcliffe called “thousands of pages that were declassified by President Trump,” and given to both John Durham and Main Justice with an expectation of public release when the Durham special counsel probe concluded.
In short, President Trump declassified documents that show how the institutions within the U.S. government targeted him. However, the institutions that illegally targeted President Trump are the same institutions who control the specific evidence of their unlawful targeting.
These examples of evidence held by President Donald Trump reveals the background of how the DC surveillance state exists. THAT was/is the national security threat behind the DOJ-NSD search warrant and affidavit.
The risk to the fabric of the U.S. government is why we see lawyers and pundits so confused as they try to figure out the disproportionate response from the DOJ and FBI, toward “simple records”, held by President Trump in Mar-a-Lago. Very few people can comprehend what has been done since January 2009, and the current state of corruption as it now exists amid all of the agencies and institutions of government.
Barack Obama spent 8 years building out and refining the political surveillance state. The operators of the institutions have spent the last six years hiding the construct.
President Donald Trump declassified the material then took evidence to Mar-a-Lago. The people currently in charge of managing the corrupt system, like Merrick Garland, Lisa Monaco, Chris Wray and the Senate allies, are going bananas. From their DC perspective, Donald Trump is an existential threat.
Given the nature of their opposition, and the underlying motives for their conduct, there is almost nothing they will not do to protect themselves. However, if you peel away all the layers of lies, manipulations and corruption, what you find at the heart of their conduct is fear.
What do they fear most?…
…..THIS!
People forget, and that’s ok, but prior to the 2015 MAGA movement driven by President Donald J Trump, political rallies filled with tens-of-thousands of people were extremely rare; almost nonexistent. However, in the era of Donald J Trump the scale of the people paying attention has grown exponentially. Every speech, every event, every rally is now filled with thousands and thousands of people.
The frequency of it has made us numb to realizing just how extraordinary this is. But the people in Washington DC are well aware, and that makes President Trump even more dangerous. Combine that level of support with what they attempted in order to destroy him, and, well, now you start to put context on their effort.
The existence of Trump is a threat, but the existence of a Trump that could expose their corruption…. well, that makes him a level of threat that leads to a raid on his home in Mar-a-Lago.
I have submitted messages to Dan Bongino on this and the subject of DeSantis who is appearing on one of his shows. Let’s hold his feet to the fire with multiple requests for him to question DeSantis on many issues including his silence and his funding. We have to interrupt this process as much as possible.
To be clear, Dan Bongino has stated repeatedly, that the FBI cannot be saved and must be shut down. But he doesn’t seem to be aware of DeSantis problems … yet. As a Florida resident he has been proud of DeSantis and this one will be tough to face.
Florida Republicans are generally blindly infatuated with DeSaintis. It’s bizarre.
Lol! DeSantis single handily kept America from becoming Australia during Covid. Without Florida’s prof that life could go on blue state governors would of been even more dictatorial in their lock downs.
Seems the same is/has been happening with South Dakota.
As I said in another post, I was shocked to see that Trump had endorsed Noem. Not only did Trump endorse Noem but didn’t help South Dakotans fight the RINOs like Dusty and Thune. Yes that was months ago, and I have no excuse except that truth on Noem outside of SD & inside of SD is so different.
Most have realized that if the chips fall too much, Noem will probably be distancing herself from Trump as much as possible.
Yes I stand behind Trump, but damn he does need to rectify mistakes he makes like his vaccine, and all the RINOs that have managed to pull one over on Trump and Americans.
You have to pick you battles. SD is thick with RINOs. Timing is everything.
Hey there were many good Trump &/or patriotic lawmakers running in the primaries that Trump didn’t vocally endorse, it was just assumed in some case.. Guess that is why his vocal endorsement of Noem makes me a bit mad. He could’ve/should’ve remained quiet.
Hey I do believe that Noem’s stumping with Thune and Dusty was one of the reason they won the primary.
You’re only commenting on the face of things. President Trump has the timing down for when he hits each one between the eyes. It’s all sequential.
Dont think for a minute he’s not watching behind the scenes waiting for his next move.
He’ll just keep leaving them in the game until more of us see what’s going on and then he’ll throw them in the incinerator.
Look at how long he’s waited to start cremating Mitch.
Trump is just too much fun to watch. …simply one of a kind.
Remember he is not perfect though…
Sometimes we need to step back and realize that.
Not all of us… I’ve been trying to keep an open mind but it’s closing fast. DeSantis will not win the Presidency. They damn well better be scared of us… they fail to realize just how sacred we hold God, our country and our families. Personally, I wouldn’t suggest they test it.
I’m not one of those Floridians and and havent been since his very first Gov campaign ad, but reading here daily/lately it appears you are correct about many of us.
CTH sees events at 30k feet. Most Floridians see events not much higher than an overpass.
If bongino is aghast of who funds desantis…..Mamet principle.

I have been wondering how the incorporation of Disney World into the Orlando tax structure is doing. Time will tell if this is a feint.
All I know is that Walt was not perfect, but I just cannot fathom Walt Disney going along with what the company has now become.
I’m trying to remember where I read it, probably here (CTH) that DeSantis is funded by billionaires. Trump is sponsored by small donations from his MAGA followers.
https://www.axios.com/local/tampa-bay/2022/05/26/billionaire-backers-governor-ron-desantis
Not true. DJT received 51% of his campaign funds from PACs; 49% from small (<$200K) donors.
Personally, I don’t care about where his campaign money comes from.
Sundance, you were correct days ago in one of your posts…The gang of eight is damn concerned about what Trump has and knows about them!
They may try to reclassify but I’m reasonably sure that copies of copies are already in the hands of his countless lawyers. They will not win this.
Hopefully.
Yes. That Amended Complaint didn’t write itself.
“only be justified if it related to records the U.S. government deems “classified” and material vital to national security interests.“
The VITAL national security INTEREST is citizens fed up with the lying thieving bastards at DOJ, FBI & state legislatures that nulled our voice by stealing our election of 45.
Someone on the inside alerted the FBI which makes that person even more of a threat to trump, yes?
This whole thing is unbelievable 30 yrs ago. Now, not so much. These people are traitors.
Many people suspect this was a trap by Trump’s team OR it was triggered at the same time the DOJ inserted itself into Trump’s RICO suit filed in Florida’s federal court against named individuals including Comey and Clinton.
The Rico suit is the gem to follow. I smell massive “suicides”, and perhaps assasinations comming.
YES, I really feel this coming.
Yes. That individual needs to be outed and questioned – under oath.
I don’t think they have any respect for an oath when their butt is on the line.
Now a days it depends on which side of the fence on is on. If you are part of the Biden Globalist group all Trump loving Christian Conservatives are traitors. H3ck even if one takes out the word “Trump” they still will call you a traitor.
However if you one of good ole hell fire protestors who burn & loot at the drop of a hat you are considered a good clean American.
After our women’s Bible study the other day we were chatting a bit, and yes some about politics. Someone noted that with the new gun laws that since Biden and his people consider Christians terrorists that they could confiscate any guns being carried under the new gun law.
Raheem makes some great catches with what’s left in the affidavit:
https://raheemkassam.substack.com/p/the-mar-a-lago-affidavit-really-does?utm_source=%2Finbox&utm_medium=reader2
Yes, and Raheem wants to work very hard to make sure this never happens again. Anybody who says that you should be very dismissive of. How about we prosecute the people that did this?
Raheem is a patriot. You? I don’t know.
Wonderful analysis, thank you!!! God Bless all American patriots!
Yes! So, you think no criminal charge can be brought because there is nothing criminal in what Trump has done. My understanding is that once a President declassifies something, even by sharing it with someone, his word is final on the subject.
I believe that Trump has filed another case about the violation of hs 4th amendment rights during this raid. That filing is in the 11th Circuit in Florida with an actual Federal Judge. Is the name Cannon? and will be taken up today, I believe.
Hopefully, the DOJ and FBI can be held to account and we can get sunlight on this situation. Wray and Garland should resign.
Yesterday.
They can make it up!
Question…
Was the eff b eye successful during the raid in finding and extricating these documents as mentioned by SD?
The FIBS sure were inside Mar a Lago a long time looking and they also tried to subpoena security footage of the 60 days prior to the raid. Also, I think Trump is in court today to try and get a special master to hold onto the papers they took.
Did they get what they wanted. Doesn’t sound like it. I wonder if Obama is implicated as well.
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/judge-orders-trump-legal-team-elaborate-request-special-master-key-legal-claims-friday
God bless Donald Trump, and his family. Keep them safe and give strength to them all. Protect them against the stresses and perils metered out daily.
Amen
Assuming Trump has copies of the docs, can any legal eagles speculate where this is headed? Looks like the criminals are being set up as a mechanism for public disclosure of the information. Is this a legal path to disclosure?
So where does that leave the documents?
Are they forever locked up in the dungeons of DC, or are there other copies?
Everything should be released, unredacted for public consumption. This IS OUR COUNTRY, so far.
If I were in his position, I certainly would have digital copies hidden somewhere with triggers for release.
I would make a pretty huge bet that there are copies in many save locations
Think this is what President Trump meant when he said that he got’em all.
Yep.
This is where I am. Sick to death of the bullshit. It is probable that Trump has numerous copies of all these documents. Just release them. Every one of them. He, as President, declassified the documents. Right now. Not tomorrow, not next week. If DOJ failed in their duty to review to redact necessary information, that dereliction is on them. For once, quit acting like the American people don’t have the right to see the underbelly of the Government or that we can’t handle it. Put up or shut up.
You do realize that the people in charge of prosecution are 100% anti Trump ? If they were released and it proved criminality what happens …………..nothing .
Of course. By now, we all know that there is no longer any Law and Order, and who do we go to for due process?……. I smell Vigilante Law on the Horizon.
Bravo my friend, and Ditto.
Yes, it’s about time leaks that benefit President Trump start to happen; so very tired of ‘leaks’ by the Never-Trumper’s. And at least leaks to the benefit of PDJT will be real and not based on lefty fantasies.
Someone here told me that if these documents are evidence for the lawsuit then the attorneys must have copies.
But release them to who? Who will publish them (other than Sundance and other alternative voices)? And if word does leak out into the world of the “normies”, you know, the people who only watch tv for their news, then the main stream liars are there with a story to debunk it!
President Trump would be releasing to those of us who already know what is basically in them! He would be “Preaching to the choir” as they say.
It has to get bigger for the truth to get out to the people who are brainwashed or otherwise deaf to the truth, and I’m not sure how many would believe if and when it does.
AMEN.
Have to wonder what Trump is thinking about regarding DeSantis. Right now his silence about the raid says a lot about him, but I will give him some more time, hopefully he won’t drown himself.
XX
There would be copies offsite. Has to be. POTUS (45) is being very laid back on this. Probably knew it was coming.
The lawsuit that is filed, would normally have some supporting evidence with it as justification, but not all of it. That is where discovery comes into play. It works both ways, if they take POTUS to court, discovery is on POTUS’s side.
There is probably numerous copies now in safe places for insurance purposes.
This fight has only just begun.
If you think it has been bad, you have seen nothing yet.
I can see History being made in a “BIGLY” Way. A good investment would be to purchase stocks in “Depends “, if you catch my drip…………
Lawyers will now be raided! If they are then you know they didn’t find anything!
I would think if the DOJ or Defendants don’t produce documents in Discovery and when they don’t President Trump produces them to prove they are hiding documents or destroyed documents, they would be really screwed and documents could be made public without worry…The President had the power to declassify and if he said he did, that is all the evidence needed.
Tipping point is THEY charging 45 with anything. I pray they’re dumb enough to do it.
Then we go to work.
I bet there are other copies of what they took that are safe in the hands of some of PDJT closest and trusted allies. If by Chance PDJT is arrested I hope and pray they release-leak everything in a timely manner.
I don’t trust Durham at all .
With apologies to Mr. Durham….sir, we have good reason to not trust anyone employed by the Federal governmen, especially those who are part of the DOJ.
DON’T TRUST ANYONE…
Except Maybe the Person Standing next to You and You’re BOTH in THE SAME DANGER with ONLY EACH OTHER to TRUST in ESCAPING by HELPING EACH OTHER.
Is Durham another Lion stalking ? An Opportunistic Leopard looking for Wounded Prey or Left Overs ? Maybe the Hyena looking to CLEAN UP the MESS ?
TRUMP IS The BULL ELEPHANT busting Brush and ” Raising HELL ” –
MAY GOD BLESS HIM & HIS; MAY His MISSION REMAIN and BE RIGHTEOUS
SD: you’ve overlooked part of the RD timeline which you had used to say he isn’t running. You justified getting off that stance based on recent funding silence etc.
There’s only one way to crush the never rise again machine and it’s to take all their money…
Don’t dismiss notion as naive on it’s face…think BIGLYer about it.
THEIR money is likely OUR money…laundered.
yeah because a politician has NEVER said he wasn’t running then did so after…..remember DeSantis IS a politician and was before 2016…..PDJT isn’t
The unredacted portions reveal the intent.
https://raheemkassam.substack.com/p/the-mar-a-lago-affidavit-really-does
“What really stands out however, is the FBI Special Agent’s claim, in the affidavit, that there may be “Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI)”, “Special Intelligence (SI)”, “HUMINT Control System” information, “Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act or FISA” details, as well as “Not Releasable to Foreign Nationals/Governments/US Citizens” info, or “NOFORN. Well, let’s use our brains here. What has been the single largest crossover point for all such types of information, as it has pertained to President Trump, for the past seven years? Yep, that’d be Russiagate. And in case you need a brief reminder, Russiagate is the long-peddled, corporate media conspiracy theory that emanated from the Hillary Clinton campaign, as well as Republican neoconservatives, which was then laundered through the FBI, CIA, British intelligence, Buzzfeed, and more, in order to create the perception that Donald J. Trump was a Russian agent and indeed an illegitimate president.”
When you think about it, it was real bizarre how they could come up with such outlandish ideas and then everyone on the bandwagon!! LOL just so stupid!
I’m not a lawyer but one of the questions I have:
If the bureaucrats failed to complete the declassification process directed by the President, should they be charged with sedition or some other specified crime?
The sedition may fall within the broader scope of the multiple coups that have been implemented.
Looked at narrowly, it may be a lesser charge is applied.
Silly you!
Deep State Democrats don’t ever get charged with any crimes.
🙂
They have used the “Private Information” ruse to get them back for redaction of said “Private Information” and never did it. They have been sitting on them ever since.
Good question! They didn’t listen to the Commander in chief!
again it does NOT matter what the bureaucrats do or don’t do….POTUS said it was declassified so it IS…….if it depended on the peons saying so then it would be the peons’ authority now, wouldn’t it?
Is it possible that the stakeholders may rig the FL governor race so that Charlie Crist defeats DeSantis? Thus leaving him freer to challenge President Trump?
Desantis would b e toast if Charlie Crist (of all jerks !!!!) beat him
He loses his home state, he’s dead in the water with donors and many voters. The other candidates will eat him for lunch on that.
If DeSantis can’t win his
own state he will have trouble running for President.
Is that you Al Gore? 😊
.
Except for the campaign fodder it would produce:
‘They didn’t want him in office, so show them we do!’
‘They cheated Ron out of his governorship — we need to avenge this!’
‘We’ve already had one man cheated out of his presidency — do not let them repeat that with Ron!’
Ask the Dominion rep.
De Santis has not bothered to do anything meaningful to ensure election integrity in FL….he has SPOKEN about it…..action NO
.
I have had this very same thought . . .
Yes possible! They have cheating down to a science!
Interesting how you blame the puppet/pawn obama and Biden when most of us who have been paying attention for the last few decades understand this was and is a neo-bolshevik takeover by the tiny hat tribe we’re not allowed to name here. So have fun discussing ways to fight an enemy you’re too afraid to name.
Please name that enemy, I might agree with you if I knew who you were referring to.
May God protect this man.
He is our last hope.
If President Trump is as smart as I think he is there will be copies of all this material in a secret location.
I understand all the names on that list, except one…..Debbie Waserman Shultz. What on earth does that ditz have to do with all this? Or am I just forgetting something in my old age.
She was the head of DNC
Thanks!!
She ran the Dimm/commies last election cycle (2016) until they booted her
The FBI can’t lose the documents if it doesn’t have all of them.
Charging Donald Trump with any form of criminal conduct will ultimately fail.
President Trump may not be convicted of a crime related to the documents, but if it gets to a DC jury, I would not bet on it. In any event, the damage by the media and both commie parties will be done. And that is the end game.
SD, you have told us the club selects our candidates. We know the club is not going to select Trump. According to you, they have selected DeSantis. The club is in no way going to do anything to help Trump. In fact, they will do everything they can to keep him off the ballot. So, how do we make sure he is the nominee. A write in campaign? Good luck with that as that would be the same as a third party candidate and I have heard nothing but screams about how a third party candidate would give the nomination to a demo commie. And even if by some luck Trump was elected, you can bet that on the day after he is sworn in, the house will start impeachment charges and the Senate will vote to impeach. We know, the commie clubs are not going to let him serve his term. Hell, they tried to impeach him even after he was no longer president.
I still want to know, if as you say, the club picks our candidates, how do we pick Trump to be the repub. commie club nominee? How do we pick anyone the club does not want to be our nominee when they control the process?
Write him in on the ballot if he wins not much they can do but honor the peoples vote. But we know they won’t do that they will kill him if need be, he is nothing compared to the money they can make with him gone.
He should choose Sarah Palin as VP! That will guarantee he will never be impeached!!! Brilliant!
There’s no way Desantis didn’t know about the raid beforehand.
It’s Florida, he’s the governor, so….
Lol! Yeah Garland got on the horn to give DeSantis a heads up. What nonsense.
While in more normal times I could agree with your logic, we are now in far different times now.
It is very possible, and to me as a local LEO having some insight in such matters, that the Feds did not notify him beforehand. The involvement of the woke local sheriff could have been at the very last minute as the feds were pulling up to MAL.
The FBI never inform local LEO about what they are doing until the last minute. They want all the credit. Remember the big shootout with bank robbers 20 yrs. ago in Fl. in which FBI agents were killed and local police officers were shot when they responded. They did not know anything about what the FBI was doing until the shootout started.
Another question I have that may be clear to many but not to me.
Trump had classified material leaked against him from the very start.
His personal phone calls with world leaders may have been among the first.
If there were a list of classified leaks, ” sources within X agency said, etc.”, the list would likely be long.
Comey’s memo’s.
It doesn’t seem that anyone was ever prosecuted.
If there are copies of documents of concern out there, why haven’t they been leaked since it apparently is not a prosecuteable offense?
Doesn’t fit the Depp States needs.
if you are talking about that made-up narrative from Shifty Schiff that wasn’t a phone call as much as it was a fantasy script
Perhaps he doesn’t want to set the hook in their lip. After what they did to him, his family, and his country he must want them to swallow the treble hook all the way to the pit of their rotten core!
“Representative democracy” and “Constitutional Republic” my ass.
Meanwhile, the normies remain happily absorbed in their games and circuses not realizing the only thing that keeps them from being “Trumped” is that they don’t present a great enough threat to the corrupt status quo to be worth taking down.

Testing Theories of American Politics: Elites, Interest Groups, and Average Citizens [Princeton University, 2014]
https://scholar.princeton.edu/sites/default/files/mgilens/files/gilens_and_page_2014_-testing_theories_of_american_politics.doc.pdf
Excerpts:
A great deal of empirical research speaks to the policy influence of one or another set of actors, but until recently it has not been possible to test these contrasting theoretical predictions against each other within a single statistical model. We report on an effort to do so, using a unique data set that includes measures of the key variables for 1,779 policy issues.
Multivariate analysis indicates that economic elites and organized groups representing business interests have substantial independent impacts on U.S. government policy, while average citizens and mass-based interest groups have little or no independent influence. The results provide substantial support for theories of Economic-Elite Domination and for theories of Biased Pluralism, but not for theories of Majoritarian Electoral Democracy or Majoritarian Pluralism.
In the United States, our findings indicate, the majority does not rule—at least not in the causal sense of actually determining policy outcomes.
When a majority of citizens disagrees with economic elites or with organized interests, they generally lose. Moreover, because of the strong status quo bias built into the U.S. political system [that describes the overwhelming influence of the administrative state and lobbyists – W], even when fairly large majorities of Americans favor policy change, they generally do not get it.
To be sure, this does not mean that ordinary citizens always lose out; they fairly often get the policies they favor, but only because those policies happen also to be preferred by the economically-elite citizens who wield the actual influence.
Yet.
LOL! Dun dun da!
Skinming Techo – a lot of “legal” claims and assertions for basis of search seem dubious at best – need SC interpretation not some 3rd string ‘magistrate” making legal determinations – But question – what was basis to claim they needed to get EVERY SCRAP of paper for President Trump’s 4 years in office ? ?
To me that is Trump’s best counter punch.
Outrageous 4th Amendment violation
He might have micro messages in his passports?
Just kidding.
Concur. Durham’s investigation, even if and when concluded, will not produce any discernible result. Barr placed it there to eff with PDJT and MAGA.
I believe the entire Durham case was put in place to shelve this information. On-going investigation…forever.

It all can be summed up by the cabal’s position: The People don’t get to pick their President
That’s why they spy on us
That’s why they steal elections from us
That’s why they raid us
They can’t have a free people, exercising their God-given rights, getting in their way

The DoJ and the powers behind Garland and this Puppet Show of a Presidency are conducting warfare against Trump using the most respected and complex National Security tools at their disposal, classified information protection. The Presidential power to declassify ANYTHING is unquestioned, so Trump is completely innocent of any charge of mishandling classified information! However, since the EFFBEYE/DoJ and all the other alphabet soup agencies are claiming that the same critical documents about misconduct that they hold remain classified at TS/SCI, any and all contested matters must be adjudicated at the same classification levels, by people with the same code word access, read on to the various programs, in SCIF facilities, and with endless delays and evidentary materials about sources and methods meant to gum up the works As a result it almost certainly will drag on, with criminal penalties for any releases about the proceedings, past the mid-terms, and even past the nomination for President process for the Republican Party. Every story about what is going on will be rebutted with “Cannor comment on an ongoing investigation” and “pending potential criminal charges”. This also deeply chills those in the National Security System, and Federal Law Enforcement about the risks of clearance suspension should they comment or whistleblow, effectively committing career and post career suicide.
This is an existential effort by the Deep State practitioners to STOP TRUMP at all costs.
Although not Top Secret documents, The classified documents submitted by the FBI among other law enforcement agencies concerning federal prisoners that were put in their inmate files were always copies.
FNC had on Mike Davis, a very competent lawyer, who completely destroyed the FBI and the narrative others were trying to piece together of this affidavit. It was beautiful to hear. Wonder if we will see him again? Probably not, but you can catch him on Bannons war room show . He is totally on board with Sundances theories about this being about crossfire hurricane and the FBI trying to coverup evidence of their own wrongdoing.
What’s Davis’ old boss Grassely going to do about it?
And was law clerk for J. Gorsuch
“In the biggest of big pictures, President Trump has no legal exposure. However, the FBI and DOJ need to leverage the appearance of illegal conduct in order to continue their ongoing targeting operation, which, as you can clearly see, has a very specific agenda behind it. Charging Donald Trump with any form of criminal conduct will ultimately fail.“- Sundance!!!
I so want to believe this!!!! Godspeed Sundance!!! Remember to donate!!!
Fox News just said an Emmersin poll shows DeSantis beating Biden by a larger margin than Trump.
Fox News poll 🤣🤣🤣! Of course it would they hate President Trump and his supporters!
HAHAHAHAHAHAA! Polls? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
And they would so like to make it so!
They are all in on it! They have to build up DeSantis in order to defeat Trump!!
I hope DeSantis loses! DeSantis will be another Romney and McCain! He will lose against the democrat and that’s what Republicans want! Sick!
reminds me of IIRC the VT poll by Emerson I think that had DeSantis taking the GOP nomination from PDJT in 2024…..NO one else even showed a close race but this poll was widely reported for about a week….LOL
It DeSantis does not come out and confirm he is only interested in running for governor, he will piss of so many people, he will get neither.
Remember, DeSantis is now being ‘guided’ by the GOPe.
Affidavit: DOJ Wasn’t Sure Whether Documents Had ‘Defense Information’
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2022/08/26/affidavit-doj-wasnt-sure-whether-documents-had-defense-information/
But here’s something else: (emphasis mine)
“He declassified them from the copy he was provided to review. However, as noted in the memo above from the office of the president, the agencies, specifically the DOJ and FBI, held a motive to
not follow through on the declassification order itself.”Uh uh. That’s not how it actually works. “Presidency has its privileges.”
Consider the now-famous Supreme Court case, Navy v. Eagan: (citations removed, emphasis mine)
“The President™, after all, is the “Commander in Chief™ of the Army and Navy of the United States.” His authority to classify and control access to information bearing on national security and to determine whether an individual is sufficiently trustworthy to occupy a position in the Executive Branch that will give that person access to such information flows primarily from this constitutional investment of power in The President™ and exists quite apart from any explicit [congressional] grant. This Court has recognized the Government’s “compelling interest” in withholding national security information from unauthorized persons in the course of executive business. The authority to protect such information falls on the President™ as head of the Executive Branch and as Commander in Chief.”
—–
Therefore: “The President™” does not “give an order to …” declassify. Unlike every other individual on this planet, “He Declassifies.”
The President™ is the “plenary” origin of “classification and declassification” power.
Therefore: if [Donald Trump] says that “he declassified [anything] upon leaving office and taking it to his home,” then, by virtue of the Office that he then held, what he says is necessarily true. Simply because he(!!) [says that he …] said it.
That’s what the word, “plenary,” means.
P.S.: This is also the basis of the concept of “executive privilege” at this obviously-penultimate level of concern. Which certainly specifically(!!) cannot be arbitrarily “set aside” by a succeeding President to the intentional detriment of his predecessor.
No foreign diplomat nor head-of-state would ever again negotiate “in secret” with the United States, if he or she had even the slightest reason to suspect that what (s)he said might one day become “American front-page news,” when the political winds in America had [inevitably …] shifted.
It should be perfectly obvious that “what happened between Trump and Ukraine” was already “alarm enough.” (“Who the f&ck is this ‘Vinkmann’ guy, anyway?!”)
So, if it were now to be accepted as “American legal doctrine going forward” that executive privilege meant nothing … well, “of course(!), political negotiations would of course(!!) ‘immediately shut down.'” Because, what other plausible alternative would there be? “If no one on the western side of The Pond™ can be trusted to keep their mouths shut … well, of course what would you(!) do?”
careful doc will show up and try to place statutory limits on POTUS’ plenary power….LOL
If he say’s it is so, it is so. There is no argument against it. And a person held up as a potential Supreme Court Justice didn’t do that research should be a far away from legal decisions and actions as possible. He should have also know a Magistrate is not a Judge and the Warrant needed to be signed by a Judge to be legal under the Constitution.
“The FBI affidavit, which leads to the search warrant and the subsequent raid on Mar-a-Lago, could -by its very nature- only be justified if it related to records the U.S. government deems “classified” and material vital to national security
Hence, DOJ National Security Division involvement, and all of the documents and affidavit are framed around this pretext.”
Dumb question, but all the *agents* rifling* thru boxes were *authorized* to see and read this “classified” material???
Affidavit: ‘National Security’ NOT Cited by DOJ Among Reasons for Redactions
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2022/08/26/affidavit-national-security-not-cited-among-reasons-for-redactions/
I just hope he and his team have backup copies somewhere which I’m sure they do. You don’t keep almost a decade of spying and corruption in one spot, let alone where they are already sniffing around
These imbeciles have really stepped in 💩 this time. They WILL pay the price!!
It all makes a great deal of sense, doesn’t it?

Affidavit heavily redacted!!! Nothing mentioned on “Nuclear,” a total public relations subterfuge by the FBI & DOJ, or our close working relationship regarding document turnover – WE GAVE THEM MUCH. Judge Bruce Reinhart should NEVER have allowed the Break-In of my home. He recused himself two months ago from one of my cases based on his animosity and hatred of your favorite President, me. What changed? Why hasn’t he recused himself on this case? Obama must be very proud of him right now!
Ole perv Reinhart is going down too!!
Fck them all. Hope the citizens of America arrest, try, and execute those who aided, abetted, and participated in everything; including the stolen 2020 election.
Nice knowing you America!
I’m not sure the rally photo is from the Butler County, Pennsylvania rally, which was the biggest thing ever of its kind in this part of Western Pennsylvania. It is an example of something that scares certain members of the TRANSNATIONAL OLIGARCHY and their U.S. constabulary like Members of Congress, the Senate, lifetime bureaucrats, and the media. This is why the raid was a mistake if all the documents were among the declassified. If they cannot sustain a criminal prosecution against Trump going after him just makes everything worse for them. While they have to keep up the pretense of investigating him in order to continue the targeting, never getting a prosecution, let alone a conviction, will result in several problems, including, but not an exhaustive list:
It is likely they don’t want to prosecute Trump, although it appears at least 2-3 grand juries are working cases involving Trump as a subject/target, including probes of the “Bogus Electors” alleged activity involved in the J6 hearings. I’m not sure what statute they are using with that one as the Electoral Count Act has no provision setting forth what constitutes violations and the various punishments for those violations. In this case, the “Non Electors” would have to be prosecuted as an element of a bigger conspiracy and there is no telling how long it would take to produce proof beyond a reasonable doubt of such a conspiracy, such as a conspiracy to commit Sedition or something close to it.
Sooner or later, this constant pursuit of Trump for this, or that, crime, which never pans out, is going to leave a bad taste in the mouths of EVERYONE. Trump haters will get sick of nothing happening after insinuations that Trump was “going down this time.” Pro-Trump people are already sick of it.

I still remember Hillary’s crowds.
The Baptist convention was a big tell, but the one I remember from even earlier was when she had a large venue booked at a community college, I believe, and ended up speaking on the balcony overlooking the student Union.
She was heckled and visibly distraught over the reactions of those students in Reno.
WHEN the AMISH Feel STRONG ENOUGH About an ” English ” or ” Outsider ” to VOTE Like The Turn Out Was
