The Raid Comes Tumblin' Down

Breaking news from CBS  via Wauck.

...CBSNews’ Steve Portnoy. Notably, Portnoy points out that Judge Cannon takes at least two swipes at the government and makes some additional important statements. First, she questions the FBI’s reliability—offering two examples to support her skepticism. And Second, she strongly suggests that DoJ’s arguments against Trump’s executive privilege “overstate[] the law.” A Third important point: Cannon blocks any further investigation until the special master reports. Finally, Cannon reveals, among other things, that the FBI Raiders seized Trump’s medical records. Medical records? Passports? This is further confirmation of SWC’s view, shared by many, that 1) the warrant itself was overbroad and that 2) the search as conducted was overbroad. The implication is that the whole thing should be tossed out....

Perhaps it will be tossed out.  But it's not likely that Trump will get his papers back, as the FEEBS (and CIA, and NSA, and DoJ) cannot have them made available to the American public--which Trump fully intends to do.

Stay tuned.
