“He said the President’s counsel was present on site.”

Yes, standing outside of the house while ~30 FBI agents were inside for about 9 hours. She also arrived more than an hour after they went inside.

She did not impress me in the interview I watched. I hope she has more qualifications than a law degree and being attractive.

Yeah, that would be like the FBI warrant saying they are searching Melania's closet for signs of domestic abuse like blood on her clothing.

Releasing something like that would give the LAAP-dog media cover to begin the "when did you stop beating your wife" line of questioning.

That's why he wants Trump to release the warrant, not him releasing all the justifications for this raid.

He didn’t give the probable cause. He told us nothing. I listened to it 3 times.

To think this uninspiring weasel could have been a SCOTUS Justice.
His eyes were blinking a lot. He’s not a good ‘fudger’. Poker ain’t his game.

"Public interest" in the National Archives? ROFL, make me laugh some more, EVIL Garland!

I have TWO WORDS for his statement regarding applying the law without FAVOR:

HEADLINE: Justice Dept. seeks to unseal search warrant of Trump home

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department has asked a court to unseal the search warrant the FBI received before searching the Florida estate of former President Donald Trump, Attorney General Merrick Garland said Thursday.

Garland cited the “substantial public interest in this matter” in announcing the request at a hastily scheduled Justice Department news conference.

Garland took the Fifth (or drank a fifth)

Drunk on power and powered by hatred. Saying you had this historic raid because of "public interest" in the matter is insane.

37 minutes late for his reading and all he said was the FBI are heroes so we should all shut the f*ck up about dues process, dual justice, and the weaponizing of the DOJ against political opponents.

Destroyed public trust in the process. It would be in the public interest for him and Wray to resign.

“...did not justify why this level of intrusion was justified.”

Depending on how many thugs conducted this raid (I’ve heard from 20 to 30), there were close to 300 man hours expended. Seriously ... 300 man hours to descend on someone who had been 100% cooperating up to that point?

Michael Mukasey is on Fox News saying Garland could have said why they needed to do a raid; that Garland could have stated this without disclosing the reason for the warrant.

Garland cited the “substantial public interest in this matter” as the reason for this historic "fishing expedition".

What a sad day, what a pathetic administration.

In an interview Trump’s lawyer said that they left her a copy but that the probable cause was sealed. This is such an outrage.
