Waiting For the Affidavit

The affidavit is set to be released at noon. It was already a one-sided affair containing no evidence, just assertions by FBI agents. We all know how trustworthy the assertions they made in their FISA warrant application were.

This will be redacted, to make it even more one-sided, if that's possible.

If they don't release this within 10 or 20 minutes, I'll put up a different post.

The Deep State bullshit, via the Deep State stenographers at the NYT:

-The Justice Department asked to search President Donald J. Trump's Florida residence after retrieving an initial batch of highly classified national security documents, out of concern that their disclosure could compromise "clandestine human sources" used in intelligence gathering, according to a redacted version of the affidavit used to obtain the warrant.

So their evidence for the warrant was based on... the documents Trump gave them voluntarily.

That's what necessitated a raid on a President's home.


The affidavit -- including more than three dozen pages of evidence and legal arguments presented by the Justice Department's national security division plus supporting documents --

Couldn't just say "37 pages long." Had to say "more than three dozen pages," to make it sound as damning and dramatic as possible.

.. describes the government's monthslong push to recover highly classified materials taken from the White House by a former president who viewed state documents as his private property.

Most if not all of them are his private property.

The affidavit lays out a timeline starting with a Feb. 9, 2022, criminal referral by the National Archives after it had retrieved 15 boxes from Mar-a-Lago. The affidavit quotes the referral as indicating that the boxes contained "newspapers, magazines, printed news articles, photos, miscellaneous print-outs, notes, presidential correspondence, personal and post-presidential records, and 'a lot of classified records.' Of most significant concern was that highly classified records were unfoldered, intermixed with other records, and otherwise unproperly [sic] identified."

Weird that I don't see anything about NUCLEAR CODES in there.

Oh, I know why -- because that was another Deep State lie, fed to a propaganda press whose main stock-in-trade is lies.

@seanmdav
Sean Davis

DOJ and FBI are so corrupt that they're redacting their reasons for redactions in their justification for raiding a U.S. president's home.

However much contempt you have for these lawless agencies, it's not nearly enough.

Go fuck yourself, US Government.

The only thing that should be redacted would be an informants name, anything else and we know it's all bs, and they'll end up leaking more lies that can't be verified because it's all blacked out.

Sadly, his son is Gabriel Sterling, who helped steal the election from Trump in GA.

I remember meeting Gabe when he was an idealistic Young Republican in college. His dad and stepmom were so proud of him.

Now, he's convinced our Atlanta Trump friends that Trump is the devil.

Anyhow, I'm so sad for our friend and his widow. RIP.

Off to work out with my trainer. Will have to deal with the grief later.

Roberts doesn't want a mess on his watch. He will sweep it under the rug. Likely a clerk did it claiming instructions from a justice to do so which would involve a pissing match and air dirty court laundry. It could also involve a clerk and/or justice leaking to the WH who then leaked it to the media.

That is what institutions and the media do is smother stories with a pillow until they stop moving. If it was a conservative justice or clerk for one, we would have probably gotten a perp walk given this administration.

Roberts doesn't want a mess on his watch. He will sweep it under the rug. Likely a clerk did it claiming instructions from a justice to do so which would involve a pissing match and air dirty court laundry. It could also involve a clerk and/or justice leaking to the WH who then leaked it to the media.

That is what institutions and the media do is smother stories with a pillow until they stop moving. If it was a conservative justice or clerk for one, we would have probably gotten a perp walk given this administration.

Meanwhile, FBI agents who have been publicly identified in connection with this investigation have received threats of violence from members of the public.

Depends on if you count Epstein affiliated deaths as Arkancides like Epstein's early Ponzi partner. Also see the curious case recently of Arkancided Mark Middleton in Arkansas who was a former Clinton aide this year. Was hanging himself and at the same time shot himself with a shotgun on a farmer's property with no apparent association with the guy. Ruled a suicide.

289 219 180 So Gates and Soros put Garland in charge. What they don't realize is that the Garland type will purge them and take everything they have. The oligarchs are few, the commies plentiful.
I used to think the oligarchs were in total control. Now I'm less sure. The people they're using to front their agenda will show them they're not needed. French Revolution will ensue. Let them eat bugs is a bad look. Posted by: CN
-----------------
Wrong way to look at it, the Dems and oligarchs ARE the ancien' regime and it is them that fear a French revolution. What they did was institute a coup, not a popular revolution and as a result are steadily hollowing out their institutions so they don't function correctly. What you are seeing is not a cohesive regime but different oligarchs pulling different ways with their puppets in office with some foreign actors mixed in. Consolidating a coup is a difficult thing to do if the government is not popular because it becomes tempting for the weak to defect (Iike Zuck throwing the FBI under the bus yesterday or the CDC giving up on Covid and Monkeypox, and so on.)

316 184 unique docmnents bearing classification markings, including 67 documents marked as CONFIDENTIAL, 92 documents marked as SECRET, and 25 documents marked as TOP SECRET. Further, the FBI agents observed markings reflecting the following compartments /dissemination controls: HCS, FISA, ORCON, NOFORN, and SI. Based on my training and experience, I know that documents classified at these levels typically contain NDI. Several of the documents also contained what appears to be FPOTUS 's handwritten notes.

What the FBI is trying to invoke is the plain sight doctrine where they claim that they had to go through everything in the house to find the documents that were under lock and seal apparently. But, court cases have limited that and it does not include for example taking everything and returning it at some future date. Search and seizure arrest warrant case involving cops dealt with a cop writing down serial numbers of stereo and tv equipment to find out if they were stolen. The search results were thrown out because while the arrest for a unrelated crime allowed the police to enter to serve the warrant, even though the equipment was in plain sight, it was not related to the object of the search and the subsequent serial number search was not a plain sight evidence of law breaking. That would require a separate search warrant.

I notably see absent in the unredacted portion that the GSA boxed up and SENT this stuff to Trump. I would say that if there were any classified docs there that Trump didn't declassify, they were planted by the GSA as a pretext for this, and the National Archives was in cahoots...

388 Remember too, those boxes were boxed up by the GSA and sent to MAL, odds are Trump had little knowledge of what was in them outside of knowing it was stuff friggin his office.

I'm guessing all the back and forth with the DoJ was over who would sort through the documents. The DoJ was probably insisting their people do it, thus they'd be able to read everything Trump had in his office, including private communications with lawyers.

When Trump's people didn't budge, they figured they'd find a new way to break the law, on order to further break the law.

Personally, I think President's Biden's average is much higher. The polls are always slanted to the right, and if it wasn't for his dynamic declarations on cleaning up our precious environment by stopping drilling, people ought to be enthusiastic about his help for suffering Ukrainians. The latest thing that shows President's concern for the middle class is cancelling the debt of struggling college students who just want to make the world a better place.

I wouldn't bet on it. The college loan bailout only helps a small minority of people in the country and puts the burden on the rest of us, like 85%. I'm not happy with the loan bailout and neither is almost everyone here. And we vote.

Same with the green energy bullshit and the raid. Every poll I have seen says more are against than in favor and the soaring energy bills aren't helping. If the left didn't own the media we would hear a much more balanced report of the actual mood of the country.

499 It is respectfully requested that this Court issue an order sealing, until further order of the Court, all papers submitted in support of this application, including the application and search warrant. I believe that sealing this document is necessary because the items and information to be seized are relevant to an ongoing investigation and the FBI has not yet identified all potential criminal confederates nor located all evidence related to its investigation. Premature disclosure of the contents of this affidavit and related documents may have a significant and negative impact on the continuing investigation and may severely jeopardize its effectiveness by allowing criminal parties an opportunity to flee, destroy evidence (stored electronically and otherwise), change patterns of behavior, and notify criminal confederates.

That's a disjunction, not a conjunction. So there may be no NDI docs. Obama kept 30,000,000 documents "subject to record retention requirements". Sent a f*cking photocopy to the librarian.

But for Trump? The acting librarian apparently has the power to send in the FBI.

I'm guessing all the back and forth with the DoJ was over who would sort through the documents. The DoJ was probably insisting their people do it, thus they'd be able to read everything Trump had in his office, including private communications with lawyers.

When Trump's people didn't budge, they figured they'd find a new way to break the law, on order to further break the law.

541 I particularly enjoy the fact that the FBI agent is reading Breitbart, to quote Kash Patel saying that the President declassified everything in the boxes, and the President's attorney reminding the FBI that the President can declassify anything he wants to.

Then the FBI redacts everything reason they have to justify ignoring those declassifications.

542 The notion that Trump would tear up documents and flush them down the toilet is completely ludicrous. People are fucking self-unaware sheep.

He could have but why should all the heat be focused on him. Diffusion helps make the op harder to oppose. He did his job. He did the important part. Now it's someone else's "turn" to look corrupt.

547 >> DOJ and FBI are so corrupt that they're redacting their
>> reasons for redactions in their justification for raiding
>> a U.S. president's home.

Holy Hell.

548 Read the affidavit and basically, it is a fishing expedition and arguably overly broad. In addition, given that the trucks arrived at Mar A Lago, before Jan 20th, any alleged crime will have to be pursued in the SD of Florida over illegal retention of classified information.

Trump's lawyer's letter included in the affidavit fairly states the statutes and caselaw involving officers of the US. Ironically, a lot of that was also dealt with in the emoluments cases brought against Trump because that clause does not apply to the president. Seth Tillman did exemplary work in highlighting the origins of the definition of emoluments in the clause and his work indicates clearly that those terms do not refer to the President.

Remember the name of Brian Auten and also the NARA OIG referral to the FBI in February. The NARA names are going to be revealed by FOIA regardless of whether the FBI redacted it.

Orange
Man

He's out of the news. So everyone forgets how bad he is.

Don't worry - the student loan forgiveness thing put him right back in it - and all the bad economic news is getting ready to dump all over him - hours worked per week are dropping, cars are being repossessed, cell phone companies are warning of late bill payments, utility companies are showing high bill defaults, real estate is coming off their highs, the FED isn't done raising rates, food prices are still going up - and layoffs are gathering steam.

Just in time for back to school.

552 Who exactly is this magistrate's boss?

Posted by: davidt

Southern District of Florida District Court judges. These are appointed by the president, confirmed by the Senate and serve for life until resignation, retirement, or death (or impeachment in rare cases).

557 This is affidavit is mess, legally. It seems to claim that unsubstantiated press reports over 18 months before precipitated the required emergency search actions of the FBI (CBS truck thing) when no suggested illegality was involved and it strains to suggest that the warrant should cover everything available, either in plain site or not, because...shrug...the FBI doesn't know "exactly" where things they claim they need to seize are...this negates the search as targeted and as required.

I think it's time to stop using Magistrates, which are essentially legal hired help for a district court and not judges, as able to issue warrants - it's not in the Constitution and it makes the warrant process easily scammed. This is a recent development actually, criminal warrants were issued by judges until the late 60's early 70's and no one seems to have challenged the Constitutionality of that...but maybe we'll see that now.

561 ACE,

Thanks, for running my art, "Who Really Killed Seth Rich" at the American Thinker. This wasn't a parody. All this crap is related.

See my other arts:

https://www.americanthinker.com/author/ron_wright/

I've submitted a draft of another art on the Raid on Mar-a-Lago. My conclusions are born out in this affidavit - pretextual, overly broad search warrant, and omissions in the affidavit that are so blatant it should be squashed y a competent higher court and not some highly biased Magistrate judge.

562 Not my Government

You hit the nail on the head. See this art in the Federalist. This biased Magistrate was rolled by the DOJ/FBI to issue this warrant:

I will post a link shortly.

563 Here's the link to the Federalist re a federal magistrate has no authority under the Constitutional to sign search warrants:
