BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: Republican Establishment Attorneys Connected to Bush and Romney File Brief in Support of FBI Raid on Mar-a-Lago
GATEWAY PUNDIT ^ | 8/31/2022 | joe hoft

A group of RINOs connected to the Bushs and Mitt Romney filed a brief in Florida requesting the judge to deny President Trump’s request to look into the FBI raid of Mar-a-Lago.

FOX News reported this morning that a group of seven former prosecutors filed an amicus brief asking the Federal judge in Florida to deny President Trump’s request to look into the FBI’s illegal raid on Mar-a-Lago.

Ahead of the Department of Justice’s filing Tuesday night that opposed President Trump’s call for a “special master” to review White House documents seized from his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, seven former federal prosecutors filed an amicus brief asking a Florida federal judge to deny his request.

Former New Jersey Gov. Christine Todd Whitman, Donald B. Ayer, Gregory A. Brower, John J. Farmer Jr., Stuart M. Gerson, Peter D. Keisler, William F. Weld – who all served in Republican administrations – called Trump’s request a “waste of time.”

The motion said the former prosecutors have a “special interest” in the case and “can provide assistance to the court.”

“Amici all served in Republican administrations and collectively have decades of experience prosecuting cases involving sensitive materials or advising on matters regarding the proper scope of executive power and executive privilege,” the motion said.

The brief said Trump’s request should be denied because the appointment of a special master for a claim of executive privilege by a former president “against the same Executive Branch to which the privilege belongs” is unprecedented.

It’s a RINO-DS full-court press on Trump. He has something. They are scared sh*tless.

I don't know all the details of this, but I did not think the request for a special master had anything to do with a claim of executive privilege. I have not seen that anywhere before this filing.

The motion said the former prosecutors have a “special interest” in the case and “can provide assistance to the court.”

Uhh, what?

Pure scumbags to-a-person.

Romney is the most glaringly evil of the bunch, right up there with John McCain (who I am delighted to remind everyone, is still dead).

How do these third party Trump haters have ‘standing’ to file in a case between Trump and DOJ?

No surprise there.

Fox News filed briefs to support Jim Acosta’s ability to take the Mic at the White House and talk endlessly while pushing a woman.

Insurrection in the White House press corps

Nice to know who your enemies are. Guess the Fourth Amendment means nothing to these cretins.

Every scumbag.

They’re insane calling a 4th Amendment case “a waste of time”.

Why would they care to oppose a special master, which can’t hurt anything?

Is this the onion?
