The warrant to search former President Trump's home in Mar-a-Lago may be thrown out entirely in court, according to a former high FBI official
The Biden Administration's investigations of Trump are not only in danger of being slowed down --- they might soon face a virtual shut down by the courts
The DOJ needs to be concerned about this: its search warrant itself was initially overly broad, because the scope of items that the FBI & DOJ were looking into extended to every single document generated during the Trump administration..... That certainly seems too be an inexcusably overbroad and unconstitutional fishing expedition. The physical descriptions of items and the locations of items was imprecise, and instructions to seize all adjoining boxes was also lacking requisite descriptive specificity.
In addition, it is now clear that the FBI collected much more than they were authorized to collect, even by the terms of the overly broad search warrant that supposedly they were executing.
Everybody in the DOJ-FBI investigative and prosecution squad need to be concerned going forward that the Mar-a-Lago search warrant could be suppressed at any time for the of reasons mentioned above, as wellas whatever else a "Special Master" might uncover. At any moment, the DOJ could even lose all access to anything that was collected subsequent to the search as a "fruit of the poisonous tree".....
The Judge appointing the special master was appointed by Trump.
ReplyDeleteThe Attorney General Garland who ordered the raid was appointed by Biden.
I'm starting to think politics is involved.
"might be" "may be" "a former high FBI official" "might soon" "seems too [sic] be" "that supposedly" "could even"
ReplyDeleteSounds solid. lol
Most people dont know that Merrick Garland is the nephew of Judy Garland.
ReplyDeleteRESPONSE: THE "OUR VERY OWN LAUGH OUT LOUD AT THE VERY WEAK 'LOL' COMMENT ABOVE" EDITION
ReplyDeleteTO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 7:39 AM"
OUR INITIAL COMMENT WAS PURE HEADS-UP CONJECTURE BASED UPON THE NUMEROUS PUBLISHED OPINIONS EXPRESSED BY AN EXPERT, THE FORMER LONG-TIME HIGHLY-PLACED AND HIGHLY RESPECTED FBI OFFICIAL, KEVIN BROCK, RETIRED FBI ASSISTANT DIRECTOR FOR INTELLIGENCE --- AND THE VERY BEGINNINGS OF JUDICIAL INTERVENTION INTO THE CASE
THE TRUTH IS THAT OUR HEADS-UP CONJECTURE IS NO LESS SOLID THAN THOSE OPINIONS BEING EXPRESSED BY THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA --- AND OTHERS LIKE COMMENTER "... AT 7:39 AM" ABOVE --- RELYING UPON THE WHITE HOUSE DRIVEN NATIONAL ARCHIVES-FBI-DOJ UNDERPINNINGS TO THIS INVESTIGATION OF FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP AND THE MYRIAD VICTIMS OF "TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME" WHO WILL BELIEVE AND DO ANYTHING TO AVOID TRUMP AGAIN BECOMING PRESIDENT
Judge Cannon's Order of September 5th, 2022, one month after the signing of the overly broad warrant aimed at Trump by Magistrate Judge Reinhart, was on a scale no less than the actions of another Federal Judge --- John Serica --- of Watergate fame. Judge Cannon's Order exposed a very underreported fact that troubled legal experts and constitutonal observers across the country. >>> Citing the government's own documents, Judge Cannon observed that the criminal probe of former President Trump began with the National Archives' providing the FBI access to the records in question, as requested by incumbent President Biden. In other words, it was President Biden or high operatives at his White House that gave an instruction that was the ignition for a criminal probe of Biden's once and likely future rival, Donald Trump.
However, Judge Cannon's Labor Day ruling is simply an opening salvo by the courts against the Biden Administration's improper use of the DOJ & FBI to get at former President Trump. Whether the former president's claims of executive privilege, attorney-client privilege, or against the unconstitutional, overly broad search prevail will be decided by some court in the future, possibly but unlikely by Judge Cannon --- who will, nonetheless, remain in the mix from this point forward in the legal record --- and in history.
According to several reports emanating from "Just The News" --- ".... [O]ne thing is clear. The FBI and its overseers at the Biden Justice Department bumbled on what was certain to be one of the most scrutinized search warrant executions in modern American history. And that's according to one of the bureau's own former and highly respected executives.... 'The more that's revealed, the more it looks like a kind of sloppy government overreach is in play,' former Assistant FBI Director of Intelligence Kevin Brock told Just the News. 'It seems more than a bit "loose" to those of us who have executed numerous search warrants.'..."
Furthermore, to put the concerns of experts like Brock and others into a proper context, you only need to scan the "Domestic Investigations and Operations Guide" [DIOG], which is the documents most FBI agents regard as their on-the-job bible, to see that the search of former President Trump's home at Mar-a-Lago was not done according to the book.
The DIOG investigative manual requires FBI agents to use the "least intrusive" means of gathering evidence, especially when it comes to "sensitive investigative matters" --- like the handling of sensitive documents, and/or where privileges, and significant. political or constitutional issues are in play. In no way was the FBI's heavy handed smash and grab at Mar-a-Lago on August 8th the "least intrusive" means of anything.
Has anyone talked about how Vito Labella hung his pet guinea pig from a tree when he was 11 years old? These are the types of people who become cops
ReplyDelete"THE FORMER LONG-TIME HIGHLY-PLACED AND HIGHLY RESPECTED FBI OFFICIAL, KEVIN BROCK," just one of many "formers" and "experts," but you prefer his views.
ReplyDelete8:56, Merrick Garland also is the grandson of David Merrick, who has a LI town named for him.
ReplyDeleteUPDATE & BACKFILL: THE "DOJ APPEALS FOR HELP" EDITION
ReplyDeleteSINCE BEING HEMMED IN BY THE ORDER OF FEDERAL JUDGE AILEEN CANNON, WHO DIDN'T LIKE WHAT SHE SAW THE FBI & DOJ DOING TO FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP --- MERICK GARLAND'S DOJ HAS DECIDED THAT IT NEEDED AN APPEAL TO HIGHER JUDICIAL AUTHORITY THAN THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE WITH WHOM IT HAD BEEN DEALING
Earlier today, the DOJ appealed a federal judge’s ruling to authorize a special master to review documents that the FBI had seized from the residence of former President Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago. At the same time, the DOJt also made a motion to Judge Cannon to pause that part of her orderm which blocked government investigators from further reviewing certain documents that were found during last month’s search of Trump’s home in Florida at the Mar-a-Lago resort.
