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.

This is NOT a court case!

How in the hell do you file a brief in support of a police state action?

Maybe they should just buy a billboard that reads "We hate him too!"?

"Filing a brief" would suppose they had some actual facts regarding the subject.

Did these clowns object to Obama taking 3 million pages of WH documents with him?

Democrats, are getting ready; the RINOs are getting ready. The DOJ and FBI are getting ready to flip the switch, and, because democrats are desperate to do something, because everything else has failed to get Trump..

they’ll finally indict Trump and see where it takes them.

Desperate people do desperate things, and democrats and their left-wing media don’t know of any other way, so, Trump will get indicted within the next 4-5 weeks, just before the midterms and ahead of the presidential election season.

They haven’t been doing what they’ve done in the last 1 1/2 years just for nothing, and they have to go for broke. They’re gonna lose this battle too, but, their desperation is pushing them to do something.

‘How do these third party Trump haters have ‘standing’....

My question too. And, if they can do this, can any group of citizens file in support of the opposite position??

It’s all one big party. And we ain’t in it!

oh, that group has wealthy connections. They aren't getting elected to anything. William Weld was last seen running as VP for the Libertarian Party. Since when are true libertarians gung-ho for FBI raids of political opponents?

Romney is pure traitorous scum, as are the Bush family members. They are certainly NOT on America’s side. Thanks a LOT Utah for putting this piece of garbage back in power. These traitors should be rounded up and live the rest of their miserable lives in rags on some deserted island surrounded by shark infested waters.

FOX News reported this morning that a group of seven former prosecutors "government Legal operatives" filed an amicus brief

Government thugs dressed in nice suits.

Keep voting for RINOs and this is what you get.

Many RINOs have been ousted in the summer primaries. The RINOs will lose 'their' party if the MAGA candidates win in November.

2020 was about stealing an election from one man.

2022 will be about stealing the elections of all MAGA candidates, and the Uniparty will be up to their usual dirty tricks.

“BREAKING EXCLUSIVE” ... to reveal information that was already public knowledge and reported?

Why does anyone post from this publication and especially the Hofts? Why?

“BREAKING EXCLUSIVE” - body of article: “FOX News reported this morning”

This is ridiculous, folks. Embarrassing nonsense from the Hofts and TGP - again.

We are clearly nearing a critical point. The GOPe and Dems have abandoned all pretense of being opposed to each other. Trump has reached the hypothetical Rubicon, calling for new elections or the correct result — there’s only one step beyond this, and nobody in DC is interested in doing the obvious right thing. Is there even a “13th legion” (or a “17th” just to Qify things) behind him?

The politicians are calling all of America their enemy, and it’s not just Dementia Pedo Joe. Canada wants jail for anyone daring to LOOK at their masters, and Europe is quite exactly at the point where compliance means mass death by cold and starvation.

I’m 100% convinced that the Dems will pull out every cheat in the book, and 95% convinced that furious Americans will overcome it … and that they’ll then refuse to vacate with the support of GOPe. The other 5% is a cheat so vast it makes 3am flips look like child’s play, daring anyone to do anything. Either way, “boom.”

In short the politicians hate America and America hates them. In the middle are all the people who swore oaths to America and the Constitution but get paid by politicians and governments. Their choices might not determine the outcome but they’ll decide how messy it gets first.
