Yes, I am well aware that there are never-Trumpers, anti-Trumpers, and people who wish Trump would burst into flames. That’s not today’s subject. You can find that on almost any “news” outlet.
If you think that the raid, oh, excuse me, warrant execution at Trump’s Mar a Lago residence (by multiple heavily armed agents of the State, some wearing tactical gear when he wasn’t home) is acceptable or even the best thing ever, you might want to pause and think again.
The search was ostensibly for documents, not narcotics that could be flushed away or a bomb that could be detonated. Paper, including, per several reports, a cocktail napkin. (Our Democracy, I mean Republic, is safe! Thank goodness!) Were the agents expecting armed resistance? Perhaps the documents were going to be thrown in a fire pit?
Attorney General Garland said that no one is above the law. Agreed. One of our founding principles is the law should be applied to everyone equally, regardless of their position in life. Also agreed.
Now, for a moment, imagine that the political leanings were reversed: that a Republican administration sent the same agents into the home of a Democratic politician (who wasn’t there). Does that still seem acceptable?
Well then, where was the raid on Obama’s home after missing records were noted back in 2018? Or the raid on Eric Holder’s home after the Fast and Furious gun walking debacle of the late 2000s?
Or the raid on Hillary Clinton’s home after Director Comey’s 30-minute exposition on the alleged illegal acts relating to her server? Or the raid on the Clinton home after the reports of many missing items after they vacated the White House?
If he really trafficked under-aged girls, then where is the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s “client” list? And currently, where is the raid (and indictment) of Hunter Biden after he’s admitted to crimes and with video evidence of others?
No one is above the law, you say?
Who will hold the FBI accountable for the Steele dossier/collusion hoax, their lying to the FISA court, the efforts of agents Strzok & Page to undermine the Trump presidency, or the suppression of Hunter’s laptop? (I’m avoiding more deadly “missions” such as Waco and Ruby Ridge.)
I’ll wait for an answer…for quite a while, I’m sure.
