Thanks for the transcript. I actually think that is a solid point.
Hey dude! Where did you get that ASR-33?
You the Man, as usual!
She was hosting the RSBN piece on True The Vote with Brian Glenn yesterday.
I see nothing in this that is new.
The “Secret Service Informant” is pure speculation.
Secret Service detail is responsible to protect the Trump family. They are trained to think protection only and in this case were vetted by Trump security. Further, all were aware the surveillance system was active.
So the “Secret Service did it” is bull.
The description of the search as a fishing expedition aligns with all credible reports, therefore appears accurate.
If there would be an “insider” acting as confidential informant, there would be no need for a “fishing expedition.”
No, absolutely. For your viewers I wanted to give them facts, not rumors or conjecture. I would welcome having an attorney show up at the scene for which I am executing a search warrant because it may make my life a lot easier. I will tell the attorney what we are looking for. Hopefully the attorney will make my job a lot easier, he or she will show me where it is, what we are looking for and i will collect it and be on my way. The concern I have which is front and center and has never happened in my experience since I have been a lawyer since 1989 and since i was an FBI agent. I would never ever shun or restrict or keep out counsel or the target of the search warrant because hopefully it would make my life easier for me to get cooperation from that attorney to his clients. When the lawyer shows you have -- by the way just so we know we are talking facts and not rumor. We know the lawyers were there because she signed the inventory sheet. We know it's Christina Bobb. So that's a fact. If she was allowed to come in, she would have said what are you looking for. Here are the documents, here are the boxes, be on your way and leave.
I can only conclude one thing, Dan. The fact that they would prevent a counsel or lawyer or target of a search warrant to be prevented from watching just as a bird's eye view. I understand officer safety. We don't want anybody to impede or obstruct the search. But it would only be one reason because they came in there not knowing what they were looking for. It was a fishing expedition. They rifled through everybody and they were hoping they have were going to find some smoking gun. That's the reality, that's the optic, that's the perception and the divisiveness.
DAN: you have some fascinating thoughts about what was behind the Secret Service change out the lock that these alleged classified documents were behind the door.
I think obviously there is a potential they enlisted a Secret Service agent to utilize that or let him be used as a confidential human source so in the affidavit they could freshen up more recent information and have their ruse to come in and search that safe.
DAN: That's...
So he says it was a “fishing expedition”.
We knew that.
Says a SS agent may have turned CI for FBI.
Good chance.
Thank you.
Thanks for the script. Yes, the FBI needed nine hours to reach their goal: to find dirt on Trump. Nine hours means they could not find any dirt. FBI : a bunch of losers without success in life.
But CB wasnt allowed to stay inside she was forced outside and stood in the hot sun for hours
