Report: Merrick Garland Waited Weeks to Approve Warrant for Mar-a-Lago Search
Breitbart ^ | 16 Aug 2022 | WENDELL HUSEBØ

Attorney General Merrick Garland reportedly waited weeks to approve the search warrant of former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago private residence.

While the establishment media suggested “classified documents relating to nuclear weapons were among the items the FBI” sought in the raid of Mar-a-Lago, it took weeks for Garland to make up his mind on whether to approve the warrant, the Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday.

“The decision had been the subject of weeks of meetings between senior Justice Department and FBI officials, the people said,” the Journal reported.

Are they still claiming that they never discussed this with Joe?

So if Trump having the nuclear secrets was some imminent threat to the nation, why did they go back and forth for weeks, deciding about whether to launch this raid?

Why so much deliberation, if Trump is an imminent threat to our national security?

All the details are nonsense because the entire investigation is ridiculous and political.

Calling a grand jury and then a massive raid over an ex president’s own records is ludicrous and doesn’t even pass the laugh test.

A room full of CYA lawyers. And they screwed up.

So Trump had Top Secret Nuclear documents that he was gonna sell to Russia (because Trump needs the money so bad) that the Feds had to Raid a President’s Home with urgency and boxes and boxes of goods removed.

But not so urgent that weeks can pass as Garland assess the situation.

Maybe off topic, but Biden hasn’t talked to reporters since this raid. I know he’s conveniently on vacation as this went down.

But, if he ever has a press conference, or talks to reporters anywhere, he is going to be asked questions about the FBI raid on Trump.

What will Biden say about the raid?

Will they feed him lines to say, that he knows nothing?

Will he say he never knows what Merrick Garland is doing?

The only certainty, is that Biden will face questions about this, whenever reporters can ever ask questions of him.

Maybe Karine Jean Pierre will be trotted out, to say that reporters ask too many questions, and the president knows nothing........

So these jerks wasted weeks of meetings over Trump’s presidential records.

But hey they also spend their time shutting down our oil and gas resources, so we’re dealing with lunatics.

This is exactly what leftists do, they waste time, energy and resources on absolutely meaningless endeavors.

Its my suspicion that Garland and the KGB needed to wait until Trump would be gone.

Otherwise, he would have had to tell the Secret Service, to avoid the potential of a shoot out. Secret Service is not controlled by DOJ. Was Secret Service in the loop on the raid that did take place?

Its an interesting scenario from perspective of Secret Service - a bunch of armed people, claiming to be FBI, storming the home of a President. Do you just let them walk in? What if Secret Service refuses? Then what?

I suspect that he won’t be able to answer any questions.

He should have recused himself weeks ago. Political revenge is the ugliest kind. That’s gangsta crap. The Assault on Mar-A-Lago was a political driveby shooting.

So Garland deliberated for weeks.

To go recover ultra classified nuclear documents from a person who intended to use them against US interests.

The documents in Donald Trump’s possession were such a huge national security threat that Merrick Garland debated for weeks, weeks!, whether to sign the warrants. Release the affidavit. This search was a political scam. pic.twitter.com/UGaePyg6SS— Clay Travis (@ClayTravis) August 16, 2022

Did they have to wait that long for a compliant judge or magistrate to be the one to sign off on the warrant?
