  1. The opportunity to return all of the documents was on the table for a year. I’m sure that was the stated reason for warrant execution. That stated, if, in the course of searching for the documents, they find evidence having to do with the coup attempt, they have every right to sieze that too.

  2. He allegedly eats sensitive documents according to Omarosa. She’s been saying that since 2018, way before it was cool.

    1. @Friar Brandon Long winded and devoid of rationality, factuality and originality , your musings on the superiority of corporate fascism vs progressive Western thought have already been thoroughly explored in Europe during the 30`s and completely rendered void by the ensuing events. Try going Bass fishing rather than posting vacuous rants on YouTube!

    2. @Friar Brandon Come on now ..If he’s squeaky clean and innocent there was no stolen government documents to be found in his home, but if there was, he broke the law & when you break the law there are consequences…Stop whining ..

    3. @Randomfully Wonderful It’s just heartwrenching how anyone could double cross that crooked lying king as they did !!

  3. You just said he would throw documents away and at the end of the night people would have to go through the trashcans and dig documents out and tape them back together and then you said you don’t believe he would destroy and documents! So which is it?

  4. The executive branch incredibly intruded – as Ty puts it – on the legislative branch at least twice that I can think of, in 2006 with Rep. William Jefferson of LA, and then with Rep. Henry Cuellar of TX, both Democrats, and as a Democrat myself, I have ZERO problem with the FBI executing search warrants on the both of them. Jefferson was convicted of corruption and being bribed, and Cuellar hasn’t been indicted, but I have, again, ZERO problem with the legislative branch being scrutinized. I’m all for it, if it’s truthful and fair. And there has NEVER been a more obvious criminal and swine in our government than the Lard of Mar A Lardo.

  5. If TFG was sharing classified documents with foreign nationals, as it appears, an indictment under the records act would be entirely appropriate.

    1. @William Currie so that makes it ok to take classified documents from the White House? Nope it sure don’t, plus he spent more than his salary in golf trips and Secret Service. Charging the Secret Service top dollar to stay in his hotels to protect him.
      It’s crazy

    2. @Nunya biznez president can declassified anything he wants so why would he do that? And if he did people have done that before and get slaps on wrist not a fng raid on thier house

  6. Isn’t he the “legal” parallel to Donnie’s “doctor”?

    Why do we give him weight?

    Why am I watching you ask someone to speculate? Am I incapable of doing so, on my own?

    1. I agree! First they complained Garland was moving too slow…he made his move and still complaints! I’m positive he knows what he is doing! Give the man a break!

  7. I find it difficult to believe that the search warrant would have been served if an indictment was not already in the works.

    1. Yup. And the cry out about planted evidence? Surely sounded like a dense against serious prison terms for their clients

  8. If there was something in those documents that’s so secret that they can’t even list it in an inventory how is that not important?

    1. the documents do not don’t incriminate Scary Orange Man, they incriminate others still in The Establishment

  9. “The Executive” branch wasn’t the branch that issued the subpoena. It was the “Judicial” branch of the government TY
