"I think a releasing the affidavit would help, at least that would confirm that there was justification for this raid," Republican Senator Mike Rounds told NBC's "Meet the Press".

Duh, didn't he see what was recovered?

Representative Mike Turner, the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, said on CNN on Sunday that the Biden administration should provide more details on what led to the search.

Certainly fishing for clues to identify any inside sources of information used. These are not "good faith" inquiries.

At best it's just a stalling tactic for fundraising and riling up their base, at worst it's what you are saying.

If they want to challenge the legality of a search warrant the proper way is to present their reasoning to the trial judge and that judge would review the evidence presented to the first judge privately and then say whether or not the collected evidence can be used in the trial.

Well, that's not how warrants are supposed to work. They can't just get a warrant for no reason and then get to claim it was valid because they found something after the fact. They do that too often already with claiming "anonymous tip" as their only sources to raid people's homes. Yes the person may be a known drug dealer and yes it's probable that drugs are present, but due process should still be followed.

So it's perfectly valid to challenge a warrant. But it's not okay to ask to see the specific evidence used to obtain it when that information would put a witnesses life in danger or jeopardize the rest of the investigation.

But in this case, Trump was not quiet about having the documents. He was showing them off to a lot of people. There's no reason to suspect that one or more of those people, or the staff knew and told the FBI about it. They just want to know specifically who told, not whether or not the information is credible.

I'm not saying that is how it worked, I am saying that what was listed in the warrant is exactly what was obtained. Is it the counterargument that the FBI was just guessing?

Yet a little more than a year after Poole was arrested on a murder charge in the April 27, 2021, shooting, he has quietly returned to work as a supervisor in the DEA office a half-hour’s drive north in Jackson after a grand jury this spring declined to indict him.

You don’t want to “trespass” in Mississippi, I tell ya.

Mar-a-Lago is a swamp. And with Global Warming ramping up, no amount of draining is going to save it from going under water. And that will be within the next 50 years.

Here is some investment advice: do not buy Florida real estate.

Hey there, "one lawyer," maybe it's time to CALL YOUR LAWYER! Because that written declaration was patently not true, so there are only two possibilities here: Either the lawyer made that statement in the mistaken belief that it was true, in which case he or she has now become a witness against the client. Or the lawyer knew it was false at the time, which is way worse.
