The attorneys for President Donald Trump are now spilling the beans on some of the issues with the FBI raid of his home and the search warrant.
Trump attorney Alina Habba appeared on Fox News with Jesse Watters. She said that they had been cooperating with the National Archives over the records and that this was completely “unconstitutional.” “Our country should be terrified—I am terrified,” Habba exclaimed. She said the FBI went in when he wasn’t even there, and then told his attorneys to leave, that they couldn’t watch or be there. “That doesn’t sound good to me,” she declared.
Habba said the agents came in wearing backpacks, and she was concerned that they could have planted things since they were trying to get the attorneys out of there. Habba said she believed this was all part of the effort to try to take Trump down, and that people were “working in tandem” with other efforts.
“There is more than people know that you’ll be hearing,” Habba explained. “If he wasn’t ahead in the polls, this wouldn’t be happening.” It’s “100 percent” politically motivated, she declared. “I don’t trust the government, and that’s a very frightening thing as an American,” she said. “This is third-world stuff, this is Cuba. This is not our country.”
Watters asked about the warrant, and Habba said the attorneys on the ground weren’t given the warrant during the raid — they were only allowed to look at it.
Now, here’s Trump attorney Christina Bobb on Real America’s Voice. She was the attorney who was on site. She explains that they initially wouldn’t even let her see the warrant, but then did; they were reluctant to let them have it. It’s not clear from what she says if they ultimately were able to obtain it at some point. She also explained that the probable cause for the warrant was sealed, so that they can’t even know what it was unless they go to court to find out.
She confirmed that it was due to the Presidential Records Act, which the host indicated has never been prosecuted–one of the many reasons this “rationale” to seize documents from Trump’s home is ridiculous. She said they also were looking for classified documents. “The irony of both…is it is the president [Trump] himself who gets to decide what is a presidential record. So, why they get to redefine that is unclear and why they get to search, why that’s even in a warrant, it doesn’t really make any sense,” she said. “The same thing with any potential classified information.”
What is ridiculous about all this is how opposed this is to how they treated Hillary Clinton, whose home was never raided, who was never gone after for getting rid of her emails or having classified documents on her private server.
Bobb explained to RSBN how this was completely unprecedented to pursue a former president this way — that Hillary Clinton even took furniture and other items from the White House when the Clintons left, and she just got an email to return things.
On top of what the attorneys said, as I noted in my Trump family reaction story, the FBI also wanted the Mar-a-Lago security cameras shut off while they were conducting their raid. Why? The only thing one can think is that they didn’t want the camera to catch something that they were doing.
So, there’s a lot to be concerned about with the overreach here.
Yes, transparency and being able to hold authorities accountable is at the very center of our Republic. They have no right to demand cameras be turned off or not showing what authorization they have for their activities.
This is all go to end very badly.
Is it, “Gladys Kravitz:?
Overreach?
It goes well beyond that. It is brazen intimidation and entrapment.
Maranatha!
If everything that has already happened hasn’t lit that fuse? Then the whole firecracker is a dud that will NEVER go off.
Then told his attorneys to leave, that they couldn’t watch or be there.
That sounds like a very BIG mistake for the feds.
Refusing to walk into an ambush isn't cowardice.
Being the one to choose the time and place to act is wiser by far.
Sounds interesting. Is Real America’s voice internet based or found on TV? When I frequented twitter Jack’s was one that I liked to follow.
RAV is on some cable, and is streaming — on Roku, Dish Channel 219, Samsung TV Plus Channel 1029, Pluto Channel 240, Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, Select TV Channel 106. (I watch via Roku). I think it’s also on Pluto.
I’ve been trying to find that video of Jack’s from last night. If I find it, I’ll post a link.
Posobiec’s video is called, “FBI: American Stasi”. I can’t find the video where you don’t have to pay for it.
Some day and Some time never seem to be To Day and Now.
Funny how that works.
Vote harder next time. That seems to be the safest road.
It may take years before patriots are again in control. But treason does not have a statute of limitations. Once convicted and sentenced, these traitors can even be dragged from their deathbeds and hanged.
.
Patriots will be on a razor’s edge heading into November - ANY hint of election fraud may very well light the (short) fuse.
This is another silly post that are too common here. What is going to happen if there is more open stealing of elections-NOTHING. Americans are not third world people or even Serbs. There is no (deliberately) organizational base to direct mass resistance unlike BLM and ANTIFA that are well funded and organized entities. The only thing silly spouting off like this does is to add another entry into the FBI White Supreamacy Folder.
There’s such a dizzying array of choices out there. I’m old enough to remember when there was only like 7 channels and no remote control.

I remember when we had two channels in the Buffalo area — channels 2 and 4. It was a big deal when channel 7 showed up. That’s the chronology as I recall it. WOW! THREE channels!
