‘Preserve Your Documents’: Kevin McCarthy Promises Probe Of Garland, DOJ After Trump Raid
https://dailycaller.com ^ | August 08, 2022 | HAROLD HUTCHISON

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy promised to investigate the Department of Justice (DOJ) and Attorney General Merrick Garland following the FBI’s raid of former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago abode Monday.

“I’ve seen enough,” McCarthy said in a statement. “The Department of Justice has reached an intolerable state of weaponized politicization. When Republicans take back the House, we will conduct immediate oversight of this department, follow the facts, and leave no stone unturned.”

FBI agents executed a search warrant early Monday over allegations that Trump took classified documents to Mar-a-Lago after he left office in January 2021, according to multiple sources. Trump announced the raid had taken place in a statement late Monday, decrying it as “prosecutorial misconduct.”

“Attorney General Garland, preserve your documents and clear your calendar,” McCarthy said, implying his intent to bring Garland before Congress should Republicans regain the majority.

The FBI has created a decisive moment for America!

August 8 2022 "A date which will live in INFAMY!"

Once again the Department of Justice(sic) and the FBI are proving themselves to be so corrupt in the raiding of a former President's home when they have whitewashed every other crime going on!! It is so pathetic and they are proving that they themselves are what so many people have expected!

AND THE FBI HIDING THE CRIMINAL WORK OF THE BIDEN FAMILY PROVEN ON A LAPTOP THAT THEY HAVE HAD IN CUSTODY FOR 2 YEARS?????

The Biden administration is pointing their fingers at YOU America... are you happy?

ULTRA MAGA 2024 - PLEASE GOD!!

McCarthy will do nothing. His alter ego Paul Ryan will make sure of that.

In the words of my generation, McCarthy is not a part of the solution, he’s part of the problem.

The only weapon Congress has is to withhold money. And that would take great courage.

"And that would take great courage."

As we know, the chances of Congress having courage is slim and none, and slim just left town.

McCarthy will drag his feet.

Jim Jordan needs to be the new Speaker.

Feckless words from McCarthy. He is part of the problem and needs to be relegated to the backbench until he is replaced with a true MAGA congressman with character and principles.

Kevin McCarthy and the Republican leadership are part of the communist uniparty. They need tar and feathers as bad as the democrats. Thankgod president trump woke a lot of Americans up by saying what most of us have been thinking for decades now.

No Repuke Senator is actually mad. None of them. If there is no violence this will always escalate. Jan 6th wasn’t violence (regardless what they try and say).

I posted that Trump as President had the authority to declassify documents before he left office. If he was in possession of documents which he declassified, then there is no case. But already, there are conflicting narratives. Some are saying that this is about documents, others are saying it isn't. Some are saying that this is related to January 6, others are saying it isn't. It is beginning to sound like someone knows that the DOJ has engaged in one huge F/U and there is a lot of CYA going on now.

My question is....Why isn't the warrant being posted...as is often the case.

And how is Hillary involved. Bubba appointed the judge.

Agree with both comments, and - since when has McCarthy become a Trump supporter? He will take the investigation and drag it out for years and nothing will happen. That’s what happens when the Republican appoint a speaker who has an anal ring around his neck.
