The Raid: Pure Theatrics

It's become clear that the FBI's Democrat Storm-Troopers' raid on Trump's residence was pure theater.  That was necessary after the utter failure of the theater presented by the J6 Committee.

So they turned it up to eleventy!

Why "theater" instead of substance?  First, understand this:  the President has total and complete authority to de-classify anything.  Any recording, papers, photos.......whatever.  If the President says "Declassify", it's done.  Period.  No exceptions.  Therefore, there were no "classified" materials in Trump's possession, as he issued orders to that effect before his term expired.

Secondly:

Two months before his Florida home was raided by the FBI, former President Donald Trump secretly received a grand jury subpoena for classified documents belonging to the National Archives, and voluntarily cooperated by turning over responsive evidence, surrendering security surveillance footage and allowing federal agents and a senior Justice Department lawyer to tour his private storage locker, according to a half dozen people familiar with the incident....

 ...Trump signaled his full cooperation, telling the agents and prosecutor, "Look, whatever you need let us know," according to two eyewitnesses. The federal team was surprised by the president's invitation and asked for an immediate favor: to see the 6-foot-by-10-foot storage locker where his clothes, shoes, documents and mementos from his presidency were stored at the compound. 

Given Trump's instruction, the president's lawyers complied and allowed the search by the FBI before the entourage left cordially. Five days later, DOJ officials sent a letter to Trump's lawyers asking them to secure the storage locker with more than the lock they had seen. The Secret Service installed a more robust security lock to comply.

Around the same time, the Trump Organization, which owns Mar-a-Lago, received a request for surveillance video footage covering the locker and volunteered the footage to federal authorities, sources disclosed....

They already had everything--and more--that they asked for.  They had it two months ago.  And it was NOT "classified," no matter what the perfidious Merrick Garland and "Mr. Vacay" FEEB say.

This is obviously leading up to a "Constitutional Crisis" (a favorite term among the resident Enemies of the United States); they are going to try pitching a high fastball selling the idea that Trump cannot run again because................SECRETS!!

And if he runs?  

They have plans for that, too.  What they're thinking is that the US population is too damned fat, dumb, and happy to notice or care.

They are wrong.

So why aren't you in front of the Milwaukee FBI office with your guns protesting the lawful execution of a search warrant of an ex-president who was in possession of documents he was not supposed to have?

I thought you were serous about this "Buy More Ammo" mantra.

When you're 13 or so, you'll understand.

Meaning you are all bluster, Dad29. That's why you were not there, nor at the January 6 insurrection.
