Gun-wielding FBI agents busted into Manafort’s home while he was asleep

Gun-wielding FBI agents busted into Paul Manafort’s home as he was asleep in bed and even searched his wife for weapons, it was revealed Tuesday.

Agents took an unusually tough approach in executing a search warrant, dealing with potential financial crimes by President Trump’s former campaign chief, sources familiar with the July 25 raid, told CNN.

The pre-dawn, guns-blazing tactics and weapons search of Kathleen Manafort left the Alexandria, Va. couple shaken, according to CNN’s report.

Manafort is in the crosshairs of special counsel Robert Mueller, as he probes Russian interference into the 2016 presidential election.

Mueller’s dovetail investigation of Manafort stretches into potential financial wrongdoing dating back to January, 2006.

Sooo,
Why has this horse crap agency EVER gone in to the Clinton crime syndicate at 5 in the morning with a search warrant?

Wasn't that the one with the PI doing an investigation in NO sleeping with a prostitute (or something like that)? Been probably a decade since I read that one...

That sending a message crap is also known as excessive force. If a local police department did that in what is at best, a white collar case, with zero history of violence, there would be serious consequences.

The FBI is corrupt.

Why don't you ask their boss, Jeff Sessions?

If someone is picking my door lock, they’re likely to end up dead on the door step.

Motion detector, phone alert, BOOM!

It also sends a message to ordinary Americans that they can do this crap to anyone that crosses them. The FBI is not our friend.

Gun wielding anyone comes busting into my house while I’m sleeping will likely result in several deaths, mine among them, as I will meet unexpected lethal force with lethal force. I pray my bride survives the onslaught, hires a great attorney, and wins in court.

Let’s intimidate Mueller. Let’s rattle his freakin’ cage and make him afraid instead of us. That SOB needs to learn a lesson in humility.

No, it's 1994 but the Government has a massive computer database and is monitoring and oppressing people but few realize it yet. If someone does get a clue they get a no knock warrant at 3:00 am with SWAT intimidation and planted evidence.

question: do they execute search warrants for terrorists and organized crime suspects in the same manner?? I don’t think so.

As far as I have been able to ascertain not one shred of evidence of wrong doing by Mannafort has been found.

I would be extraordinarily interested in seeing the search warrant for this, and see exactly what justification the FBI had for a dynamic entry with ninja-clad goons like this. Did they think he’d flush all his banking records?

I believe it was on Tucker last night, that had an attorney on saying that that second-in-command for Mueller (I can’t remember the name) worked the Enron case. The lawyer said this guy has a reputation for playing rough.

Imagine if he had a weapon and heard the break in and shot them dead or they shot him and his wife dead.

Remember when the FBI was trusted and honorable? Yeah, I don’t either.

The FBI was founded with a corrupt, cross-dressing, deviant as its director, and its gone downhill since then. It is nothing more than a political goon squad of the Democrat Party.

In a responsible FBI, no one is above the law

And the law is represented by ... oh, anyone seen Jeff recently?
