Former President Donald Trump signaled that he intends to capitalize on the FBI's Mar-a-Lago raid – sharing an op-ed that predicting Republicans might exact vengeance by using law enforcement to go after Democrats Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.
Trump shared without comment an op-ed by loyalist and conservative columnist Kimberly Strassel in the Wall Street Journal, whose work he has frequently promoted in the past.
The writer describes a 'boomerang history of unleashed governmental powers,' observing that Republicans used a post-watergate independent counsel statute to go after President Bill Clinton in a warning to the party that currently has unified control of government.
In an email from his Save America PAC, Trump tweeted the article's headline: 'The Payback for Mar-a-Lago Will Be Brutal.'
She posits that the Trump probe, which she brands as political and breaking norms on 'sensitive' investigations close to an election, could come back at Democrats if Republicans take charge.
'Mr. Garland's raid has made even the highest political figures fair prosecutorial game, and the media's new standard is that the department can't be questioned as it goes about ensuring 'no one is above the law,'' she writes about AG Merrick Garland.
'Let's see how that holds when a future Republican Justice Department starts raiding the homes of Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Eric Holder, James Comey, and John Brennan,' she writes, referencing Obama's former attorney general, the FBI director Trump fired, and former CIA director who has gone after Trump on Twitter.

Oh, I’m ABSOLUTELY certain that he’ll be able to find a judge that will approve the same type of warrant that they approved against him… [/sarc]
“I wish he would start practicing tactical secrecy.”
I wish you kneejerk morons would stop giving instant credibility to every MSM claim regarding President Trump.
You kneejerk ASSUME what they claim here is FACT.
There isn’t a single QUOTE in this article. Not one. Yet, you immediately conclude that it is a FACT and dump on Trump taking the MSM as fact.
People like YOU and all others on this thread agreeing with you are weak, pathetic, and gullible. Or, you are Trolls.
‘lock her up’ but later stated he didn’t want to hurt them.
“Stop falling in their tarpit. Opinion hit piece.”

Exactly. They do this every single election year. The left and their media mouthpieces work to suppress, divide, and conquer the GOP votes. Don’t fall for it. The right has the momentum.
Don’t believe the media when they say the “inflation plus” bill signed by Biden will make a difference. So many voters have no idea what it was or even that it passed. They are too busy working to put gas in their car and food on their table. This is meaningless and just media blather. The voters are concerned with high prices and high crime. Many normally Democrat voters are rethinking their loyalty to the democrats, especially black and hispanic voters. Push that thought and remind them who is to blame anytime you have a chance.
But, don’t get cocky. Make sure to vote and make sure everyone you know is registered to vote.
I love Victor Davis Hanson’s description of “Old Testament” vs. “New Testament.” It’s very apt. Trump is promising Old Testament.
“...to go after Democrats Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama..”
This is why I can’t find any paper shredders, bleach, hammers or ash trays...
If there is a sewer backup, we know where some of the documents went. Sandy Berger put documents down his pants then into his freezer. More places for us to look...
Federal law enforcement agencies have become the armies of tyranny the founding fathers feared. All federal law enforcement must be eliminated.
Note to President Trump: “Loose lips sink ships!”
Who would be a good Attorney General?
There are damned few I could think of. Cruz? Hageman?
Yep he “hinted” he would do a lot of such stuff but never did. Remember “and you will be in jail” promise to hitlery?
Go for it, DonTrump. You have an avalanche of support for upending the status quo.
If they were Trump’s words they would be on Truth Social that is how you will KNOW if Trump said it!!!
Yep and that’s why they don’t make waves.
I agree.
Put it aside. Speak in terms of what you will do for Americans.
All they can do is talk what they did to Americans.
Then,when elected, unleash holy hell on all of them and deep state too.
So do I. I wish he would have shut down his Twitter account after Labor Day 2020. He would have won IMO.
It's all red meat for his fervent supporters. To me, it's exhausting.
Another of Trump's hires that he never took responsibility for.
“I wish he would start practicing tactical secrecy.”
Sheesh! NO KIDDING!
This type.of narrative nearly guarantee’s muroad more efforts at his physical demise.
No one would survive US, Russian, Cuban, Venezuelan, Serbian, Iranian, Pakistani, Mexican, North Korean, Chinese. British, German, and French intel all seeking to end your life at the same time.
100% justified and right, and Comstitutiinal being massive treason and sedition are fully in play, but TOTALLY unwise telegraphing and verbalizing this—

I thought he had Clinton locked up in his first term. Guess he missed the appointment.
learn to shut up...
That’s not why he was elected the first time, the second time, or next time. Sure he makes us all uncomfortable. But when he has made blue collar comments before what happened?
Trump doesn’t speak softly and carry a big stick. He speaks constantly and has WE THE PEOPLE behind him. He is OUR voice. That’s all. We bitch and moan but who listens? He does.
Shut down the FBI? Who actually does ANY oversight of ANY government department? Get rid of the Fed? How? Break up big pharma, big tech, big banks, and the military complex?
Let’s be realistic. We need the King of kings and Lord of lords to rule this whole earth with all the angels visible and the resurrected dead of the Great Tribulation ruling with Him to have that promise announced at His birth fulfilled. Remember?
Peace on earth...
Therefore, since Jesus hasn’t been told it’s time for the return, we’ll continue to support Trump and those who put America first.
I didn’t even know he wrote another book. Here’s what the [C]ommunist [N]ews [N]etwork wrote:
“Sales of the book, “Our Journey Together,” grossed $20 million in less than two months since it went on sale in late November, two people familiar with the publishing of the book told CNN. Part of the book’s popularity among Trump’s base is the captions, all of which he wrote himself, and most of which feature unbridled hot takes on his political enemies.”
I think I’ll order one tomorrow.
P.S. I have a friend who detests Trump’s Un-presidential manner of speeches and messaging and who thinks he’ll start a nuclear war. It’s not the loud blustery people who pull the trigger. It’s the quiet one brewing in the corner.
