Yesterday, the FBI delivered to the Senate Judiciary Committee emails relating to the search of President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home. Senator Charles Grassley has released what I take to be all of the responsive documents.
Comments you may have seen on the emails are correct: the FBI didn’t think there was probable cause to search Trump’s home, but Merrick Garland’s Department of Justice insisted. The FBI thought they should communicate with Trump’s lawyer and likely be able to reach an agreement. Garland’s DOJ refused. The FBI pointed out that President Trump likely had a good legal argument on the documents; DOJ didn’t care.
Here are some extracts from the emails. “WFO” stands for the Washington Field Office of the FBI:

Garland had his orders from The Big Guy.
Which Biden handlers were the Big Guy? Biden was the figurehead used to make the country over into the woke, festering sore they wanted.
Maybe Biden did want to get Trump and Garland appeased him with that campaign, but it seems to me all the officials running under Biden had an agenda much bigger than Biden’s wishy-washy not-so-smart political views he held in earlier times.
The boxes of classified documents were just left in the driveway.
The “Big Buy” didn’t give those orders. He could barely mumble his way through two sentences coherently, and had trouble figuring out how to walk off stage most of the time. No, the orders were from someone else. Obama? Shrillary? The swarm of unelected members of the unelected Biden administration?
Pretty obvious Karin Jean Pierre was running the show. Do I need a sarc tag?
We dodged a bullet when Ruth Bader Garland didn’t make it to the Supreme Court.
If Biden had a functioning brain, he would have likely cleared all the classified documents from his garage and other sites before going after Trump. Obviously, the real handlers of this witch hunt had no idea that Biden had so many classified documents from his time as V.P. spread all over Delaware, Pennsylvania, and Washington, D.C.
Is this not considered treasonous? They actively conspired against the American people and the president they elected. I’d say hangings are in order.
all worthless right wing media fodder unless someone is held accountable.
LOL French Dip LOL
“ Garland had his orders from The Big Guy.‘’
The Big Guy who was compromised by both China and by Ukraine.
The need for gallows grows ever stronger.
And...who’s been charged? Who’s been arrested?
And just like that nobody got arrested.
From his time as Senator. He was illegally stealing and stashing classified documents for many years. I suspect a lot of congress people, with their bloated egos and sense of entitlement, have done it as well. We peons go to jail for that, they shrug and wait for DOJ to say 'well no reasonable prosecutor would indict...'
Or the chicoms.
Garland is DIRTY!
Obviously, Trump actively opposing those warrants and claiming a right to retain those documents -- right or wrong -- indicated that there was no risk of those documents being destroyed. Without that risk, there was no reason not to try to work something out as the FBI itself recommended.
