(CNN) — For the last 72 hours, since the FBI conducted a search of Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago home, the former President has spouted any number of claims about what happened and why. He's said that Democrats led the search (they didn't) and raised the possibility that FBI agents might have planted evidence, without providing any proof of the allegation.
On Thursday, Attorney General Merrick Garland struck back -- albeit in the limited way available to him as the head of the Justice Department still actively investigating the possibility that Trump took classified documents out of the White House and had them stored at his mansion in Florida.
Garland announced that he had asked a judge to unseal both the search warrant justifying Monday's search as well as the receipt of what was taken. ....
What Garland is doing is saying to Trump: You want to play hardball? I'm here for it.

Merrick plays hard ball? Come on, he most likely got his pansy prissy ass kicked regularly in school. NOW, with the DOJ/FBI army behind him HE is acting like a bully.
F*uck You Merrick and your so called army.

You have to have all the proof ready-made just to raise a possibility?

Garland and Wray are the only one’s sweating at this point. Their assertions are laughable.

Cillizza needs some sense of self-awareness.
It’s Sunday, so I am being more circumspect than usual.

It’s the same crap playbook they use about the election fraud. It was massive and highly varied. There is plenty of evidence, but they always say no evidence” and “debunked.”

This is the same nonsense that was spewed by the MSM regarding Russia Collusion, which turned out to be a Russian Hoax

Liberals sure get seriously butt-hurt when we use their own tactics against them. It’s a wonder they don’t complain of political appropriation!
