Link at https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.flsd.617854/gov.uscourts.flsd.617854.102.1.pdf, I found it on Right Scoop at https://therightscoop.com/breaking-redacted-affidavit-on-the-raid-of-trumps-home-has-just-been-unsealed/.

It uses FISA as a basis for raiding Trump's home. For those of you in Rio Linda, the F in FISA is for Foreign. I haven't heard anyone say this raid was because of a so-called foreign attack.

Watching Charlie Kirk Show on Real America’s Voice now. Jack P is filling in.
He said it was leaked to Politico First. 32 pages long majority of pages redacted.
DOJ and FBI corrupt to the core.

There is also probable cause to believe that evidence of obstruction will be found at the PREMISES.”


Weasel words of “ to believe” wrapped around an undefined obstruction of justice.

Also to me this smells of Russia Gate.

Get info out, hype it, then once its disproven indicate “ you believed”

Thats to me what Reinhardt did, know that there would be lots of black ink used, and he could always use the “ I thought” in approving.

So basically, a records dispute which would have been a NON ISSUE if it weren’t for the fact that Biden sent his goons to go after the guy who he’s gonna run against in 2024

According to numerous reports, the FBI had full access to these documents in June. Is the claim that something was removed before then?

How to get the PDF on Politico's bandwidth...

1) Go the Politico article.

2) Scroll down until you see the letter-boxed "Redacted Mar-a-Lago Search Affidavit".

3) Click on the menu upper-right.

4) Where it say "Original Document (PDF)", right-click on that, and "Open In New Tab".

5) Depending on your PDF settings, it will either open in the new tab or prompt Reader and place it there.

6) Download for keeps if you like.

So we have a Stasi-like system where the accused does not have a right to challenge his accusers? The implications of this is that we can accuse someone of crimes and not pay the consequences for that accusation.

In a truly free society, we would not have secret courts. All the cards should be placed on the table for all to see.

The document then adds: “If witnesses’ identities are exposed, they could be subjected to harms including retaliation, intimidation, or harassment, and even threats to their physical safety. As the court has already noted, ‘these concerns are not hypothetical in this case’.”

“We’re the FBI. We threaten *you*!”

The most interesting part is the footnote on page 22 and other places where the FBI attempts to make a distinction between "national defense information" and classified material.

It sounds like they are going to try to argue that even though the President had the full right to declassify the material, and therefore it is not classified anymore, it is still "national defense information" and somehow entitled to protection.

That seems like an almost frivolous argument.

The affidavit shows no real serious issue, just legal warfare being conducted by Washington insiders. Make sure you read Exhibit 1, it shows exactly how ridiculous the whole raid was.

They basically mocked the judge with all these redactions. Unless he is complicit, that is.

I haven’t seen it. Maybe somebody wants “technical problems” right now.

What jumped out at me is that in Paragraph 14 they have the unmitigated gall to reference FISA.
