Breitbart ^ | 08/08/2022 | Paul Bois

Posted on 08/08/2022 6:52:50 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

News of the FBI raiding former President Donald Trump’s private home of Mar-a-Lago ignited a firestorm of reactions from Republican politicians and conservative activists on Twitter, all of whom denounced the move as a blatant power grab by the Democrats to silence and intimidate a potential 2024 nominee.

Republican South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem sounded off on Twitter, calling the raid on the former president’s home a “weaponization of the Justice Department.”

I’ll give her credit when she puts her money where her mouth is.

Well, since all this happened just hours ago, she really hasn't had a lot of time to obey you yet.

If I know Donald Trump’s political personality as I believe I do, this FBI move is going to backfire on the Dems.
I expect Trump to use this incident as clear evidence of how certain government agencies have become Attack Dogs of the Democrat Party. This may be used as a rallying point for the right, as it should be.

He’s heading to New Jersey to safeguard and remove all the documents and papers he may have there before they raid his other properties also. I’m sure he is securing docs/papers at every piece of real estate that he spends any time at in the U.S.

When multiple targets or locations are involved, they're generally done simultaneously.

Did Joe Biden know about this & if he did, when did he know it? Was he behind it? He may not have been behind it(I’m not sure he’s smart enough to plan something like this) but if he knew about it, he’s just as guilty. If he didn’t know about it, then there are other obvious implications. It seems to me that he holds some guilt in all this either way it comes down.

“When multiple targets or locations are involved, they’re generally done simultaneously.”

Would have looked terrible and I doubt they could do it; no judge would approve that. One corrupt judge for Mar-A-Lago, but no judge would approve multiple raids without well documented reasons why.

Regardless, Trump never expected this raid, but they did it. He knows they will pull the trigger and have him indicted now. He has to protect his properties, his papers everywhere he has them; he would be a fool mot to do so. These are not normal times and who knows what further to expect from these corrupt thugs.

Taking back the House is a dream in Kevin’s mind. Does he really think a regime that just raided a US president’s house is going to let the GOP take back the House? Seriously?

We’ve got to try. This has galvanized GOP voters.

Nobody’s going to “let us” take back the House.

We have to do it ourselves, and negativity is sure not going to help.

Has Fox News even made a peep about this?

Other than Shannon Bream defending the raid saying they most likely had good reason.

You are confusing reality with negativity. I am an eternal optimist but the 2022 midterms are not going to deliver us from evil. I highly doubt anyone will be voting on November 8th. The smart money says the midterms are going to be postponed. Just put that in the back of your mind so you don’t freak out when it happens.

I don’t know who the “smart money” is, but their hypothetical (or even pure fantasy) is no excuse for planning not to vote when the time comes.

If we don’t turn out to vote or don’t be prepared and kick up God’s own fuss if they try to stop the election, it’s on us.

The whole reason this is happening is that not enough of us turned out to vote the last time around, or at any rate, not for Congresscritters or Senators. Trump obviously won the presidency, but was overcome by cheating.

But if we’d kept our Senate and Congressional seats or even added to them, none of this today would be happening.

Well you are on the right track. This criminal cabal that has captured our government will not stop until the American public has had enough. When will that be? You would think the FBI raiding a US president’s home would do it but apparently not.

I don’t personally think you will be voting on November 8th but if you do who are you voting for that you think is going to stand up and stop the crazy? Have you seen the tepid response by the Republican tools that are in there now? They are no match for the deepstate which is how we found ourselves in this predicament. Decades of Republican weakness.

So no the congress is not going to save us with their calls for hearings and investigations. Christopher Wray walked out on Grassley the other day to go on vacay. And then ordered a raid on Mara-lago. That’s how much he fears the Republican Congress.

We are in a constitutional crisis not seen in our lifetime. Its going to take way more than another rigged election to get us out of it.

They do it all the time. And what appears more terrible, raiding the former presidents private residence where he lives, and simultaneously serving warrants on any off site storage facilities, vacation homes etc? Raiding the private home of a former president could not possibly look any worse for the FBI, regardless.

Too bad no one on FR will take that bet with 2/3 of the proceeds to FR. I bet midterms will be held. Again, lots of talk, but no one believes quite *that* much as to put money behind their jackassin'.

LOL - But by dodging the subject, at least you have tacitly admitted that you yourself don’t believe the no elections prediction in November 2022.
