Did Donald Trump Bait the FBI?

Original Article

Posted By: ladydawgfan, 8/11/2022 9:19:25 AM

A reasonable question. Monday’s FBI raid at Trump’s Mar A Lago was very strange. Unlike previous FBI hits on people linked to Trump, such as Roger Stone, Paul Manafort, Peter Navarro and Steve Bannon, the establishment media was kept in the dark. They did not get a heads up. How did we learn about the raid? Trump announced it via his social media page around 1830 hours edt on Monday. Very strange. Think about this. Not a single soul in the Trump universe who knew about the raid at Mar A Lago breathed a word about this unholy assault. Not one. And, surprisingly, the FBI kept its mouth shut.

Comments:

Hmmmm. Interesting premise. Had the propaganda media known about this, they would have broken through regular programming and followed it like OJ's Bronco!!

I'm thinking maybe Trump himself was responsible for the leak, and is now sitting back enjoying the show. Sounds like something he might do.

Not mentioned anywhere is the reaction of the Secret Service to all of this. Presidents of the U.S. have very sophisticated security systems installed in their private residences along with living quarters for Agents. Did the FBI wait for the President to be gone in order to simplify access? What was the FBI's knowledge of the S.S. surveillance system in order to shut it all off... or was some of it left on by mistake? The FBI has lost its brand name. It's doomed. Time to deconstruct the three-letter agencies in DC.

What #4 said. Although Johnson with zero humility talks about being a witness to all sorts of major events, he doesn’t say what his capacity was, why he was there, how he came to know so much. This is a really lousy article that tells us nothing about much other than the author.

He makes one good point, the feds did not preschedule CNN to be out front when it went down, so it doesn’t fit their pattern. Maybe because they realize that raiding the former president’s home is a whole new level of corruption, or maybe they didn’t want their MSM connections to be so obvious. But even if Trump did bait them, this wouldn’t preclude them from inviting CNN to the party. Seems like Trump should declare his candidacy ASAP, which would up the ante if the storm troopers try to arrest him.

No. Trump was set up by the FBI, who had previously reviewed all the documents, but left some behind so they could raid his residence anytime they liked.

No. The fbi and doj brought this all on themselves. But thinking that President Trump made it known when he would not be home so the two agencies could break-in and slit their own throats. Protecting Obie and Holdie is a really big job. But the two agencies will soon pay. And Maybe Obie and Holdie will as well?

Back in April, Texas Gov.

If Donald Trump was going to run again, we assumed that the media would once again be the former president's largest pool of support, unwittingly, of course, with the nonstop negative coverage that would have only pushed more voters into his corner. Matt Taibbi noted that they're the "kingmakers of suck," arrogant, and more concerned with expounding on their moral superiority than covering the elections properly. Post-Russian collusion hoax, no one believes them, as evidenced by the appalling trust numbers the American public has given this industry over the past five or so years. That all ended last night.

What a guy. But now another nugget of information has illuminated Reinhart's opinions about President Trump.

After all that, the safe at Mar-a-Lago was empty. It was pried open by FBI agents who swarmed the premises under the pretense that they were looking for documents marked for preservation by the National Archives. Does anyone believe that? The FBI’s raid on the former president’s home was not over boxes of documents. If you think that, please, get some crack cocaine, White Claws, and wallow in total ignorance in an observation tank while high as a kite. This line about the documents is politburo stuff, except we’re not the Soviet Union. The FBI was there to find Russian collusion material they know doesn’t exist.

On Monday evening, the FBI took the unprecedented step of raiding the home of former President Donald Trump. What were they looking for? Astonishingly, what is being leaked to the media is that they were after documents that possibly violated the Presidential Records Act. Far from their promises of proving some grand conspiracy involving January 6th, it appears the Democrats, using the power of the nation’s federal law enforcement apparatus, are trying to take Donald Trump out with selective enforcement of provisions that are normally handled in a civil, not criminal manner. Where have we seen that before? None of this is a coincidence, and none of it is justified.

The reaction to the FBI raid — reportedly with a large group of agents — on Donald Trump’s home in Mar-a-Lago is setting off a firestorm of reactions. Dan Bongino blasted it as some “third world bulls**t.” He also said it was a “clarion call” for everyone to get off their seats and vote the Democrats out. Dana Loesch believed it was the Democrats trying to settle “political scores.” Lara and Eric Trump ripped the action and provided more information about what had happened in the raid, including that the FBI didn’t find anything in a safe in the home when they cracked it open.

But it just reached a whole new level — banana republic level — on Monday when President Donald Trump reported that a large group of FBI agents was raiding his Mar-a-Lago home in Florida. Trump was not there, he was in New York. “These are dark times for our Nation, as my beautiful home, Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, is currently under siege, raided, and occupied by a large group of FBI agents,” Trump explained in a statement.

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) said Thursday she is “ashamed” that Republicans are questioning the FBI’s credibility after it raided former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago. “I have been ashamed to hear members of my party attacking the integrity of the FBI agents involved with the recent Mar-a-Lago search,” she claimed. “These are sickening comments that put the lives of patriotic public servants at risk.” Cheney’s remarks follow multiple investigations into Trump, including the Russia hoax and two impeachment trials. Before that, the FBI looked the other way in 2016 regarding Hillary Clinton’s 33,000 acid-washed emails.

It is helpful to think of political developments as moves on the chessboard made to advance an objective. In chess, the objective is to win the game, chess being zero-sum. Politics is like that, too, though participants often claim it's not, that they're acting for the greater good, principles at the foundation of democracy, motherhood and apple pie and all that — which is true in some cases but never if Democrats are in the game. This brings me to Attorney General Garland's claim that the Mar-a-Lago home invasion wasn't a raid at all.

Law enforcement is investigating former president Donald Trump for removal or destruction of records, obstruction of an investigation, and violating the Espionage Act, according to the search warrant for the FBI raid of Mar-a-Lago that took place on Monday. A federal judge unsealed the search warrant for Trump’s residence, as well as other related documents on Friday afternoon. The Justice Department revealed earlier on Friday that Trump’s lawyers would not object to the documents’ release. Meanwhile, a list of items removed from the property shows the FBI recovered eleven sets of classified documents during the search, including some top-secret documents that should only have been available in special government facilities.

One thing we must give Democrats credit for is their unity. Yes, certain members of the party such as Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) will occasionally diverge from the party line and oppose particularly radical pieces of legislation, but when it comes to big moments and key votes – on impeachment, for instance – Democrats circle the wagons. Contrarily, Republicans tend to fracture at the most inopportune moments, which is why it was refreshing to see virtual unanimity amongst the GOP after Monday’s outrageous raid on former President Donald Trump’s residence Mar-a-Lago. Almost all notable Republicans supported Trump after the ordeal; all except for one.
