There are many things fishy about the search of Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Largo house on Monday. First, the former president had been cooperating since he left office with the National Archives and the Justice Department regarding documents taken there by Trump during his presidency. The Archives took 15 boxes of documents, mementos, and keepsakes from Trump’s house last January.
A “person familiar” with the list of items removed from Mar-a-Largo says “items that were improperly taken to Mar-a-Lago include a cocktail napkin, a phone list, charts, slide decks, letters, memos, maps, talking points, a birthday dinner menu, schedules and more.”
There was also an inventory of classified documents about three pages long, according to the source. The classification ranged “from confidential to top-secret to special handling categories,” claims this unidentified person.
Were 30 FBI agents really needed to conduct a search that Trump and his people claim was unnecessary because they were perfectly willing to cooperate?
The answer is yes — if your motive was to start a civil war.
It’s not just “some extremists” who see the raid as a “political attack.” Reasonable people are asking why a raid with 30 FBI agents was necessary on a mostly empty home when the person of interest was perfectly willing to allow agents into his home to conduct a search in the first place.
Obviously, the raid had little to do with investigating the relatively minor crime of mishandling classified information. After all, Hillary Clinton exposed 33,000 emails on an unsecured server and didn’t even get indicted for it.
But it’s the extremists who are more likely to be goaded into a violent reaction, leading to calls for a “crackdown” on “extremists” with the definition of “extremist” drawn so broadly that it would ensnare most of the right in a dragnet.

Assume everything the left does is to goad the right into doing something in order to bring down the hammer.
If we will have a civil war, make it good.
Yes
In all candor and honesty, I doubt Joe Biden knows where his bathroom is. He probably forgot what day of the week it is, and if he was told of an FBI operative, in 5 minutes he would not recall what was told him. We are in a crisis.
Yes
they are goading everyone
Slo joe is not in charge. This is obama’s handiwork.
Kenyan third world thug tactics.
Joe would not have thought this up at all.
Yes.
Don’t give them what they want.
No violence.
No because they are not capable of winning that fight. They are probably smart enough to know that January 6 was actually just a protest, and that their own shock antifa troops made it into what it was.
They know it won’t be another January 6.
“The answer is yes — if your motive was to start a civil war.”
They are not thinking that.
1. Make headlines that Trump was raided by the FBI like a common criminal.
2. Goad some unhinged emotional types into committing acts of violence.
3. Time it before the 2022 elections just one day outside the 90 day window.
Yes precisely
Respectfully disagree. They don’t need to provoke us in order to bring down the hammer. They simply bring down the hammer. they really aren’t sophiscated enough to think that many moves ahead and further more they don’t care. They are simply driven by their ego. Everything they do after the fact is a half assed CYA effort, which tells me they’re saying, “sure, we did that and there’s nothing you can do about it”
If he says prematurely even the most innocent comment, it will be seen as a call to arms and evidence he invited January 6th
That definitely crossed our minds (my husband and me) last night.
Someone who thinks there are 57 states and that his grandmother, born in the 20’s, survived two world wars, isn’t capable of pulling the strings.
The quickest checkmate to Bumbling Biden is make Trump Speaker this November and run Desantis in 2024
There is never one reason.
No I think Obama is trying to goad the right into doing something violent. Potatus just waits for pudding time.
Ban the Democrat Party as a Criminal Organization
King George got it in soades
