    You do know that a search warrant is to be limited to ONLY the evidence they are seeking and must spell out specifically what it is and where they expect to find it and why it is needed. And they can only search where they expect to find it. For instance if they come into my house looking for a 4' sword they can't go through my kitchen drawers looking for it.

    So why was a broad search for anything and everything they could find including personal items and communications executed? Hint: it's not about classified or disputed NARA documents.

    For the record, they will NEVER prosecute a sitting or former POTUS. Never. I would destroy the credibility and standing of the USA on the world stage. Richard Nixon ring any bells ?

    But dont for one second think that they dont have a case against him.

    I mean this in all seriousness BG. If Trump really had classified documents at his house he wasn’t supposed to have, would you support the case then ?

    I’m not convinced he will be charged, let alone convicted. But he has quite clearly done something wrong by keeping and refusing to return classified documents. And you simply don’t care.

    He won't even consider the question. I mean, it's the ORANGE STAIN, their front man for the past 6 years. Their savior from the Swamp. He's DIFFERENT.

    In the end, he's a worse crook than any politician.......and that's saying something.

    So, Garland is lying, interesting take. This will be the biggest political blunder in the history of the country if they decided not to subpoena
    documents before they raided a former Presidents home, all the while knowing they wouldn't prosecute.

    They did issue a subpoena and it's believed Trump or his lawyers were not truthful in handing everything over that was asked. A simple solution would have been to go through everything with NARA/FBI to determine things that Trump could keep, but instead documents were obfuscated for whatever reasons.

    The goalposts keep moving. First, it was why didn't they try diplomatically to get the documents back. Then when it was revealed they have been in contact since January, the narrative turned to "why didn't they get the documents sooner if it was so sensitive."

    Trump is being handled with kid gloves.

    Yes .. the alter-ego of Trump Derangement Syndrome .. a plague that beset the Progressive Blue en-mass when Hilly went down in flames .. from which they have yet to recover .. but I hope they get well soon .. cause are a complete disaster - should not be driving the boat drunk on TDS .. bad combination.

    So your saying is they complied to the subpoena and gave back the court ordered documents and the DOJ wanted more and raided a former Presidents home instead of issuing another subpoena. There better be something big soon come from this because to the middle that doesn't like Trump, this seems like a massive overreach by law enforcement on a political opponent.

    They handed over some material, but not all that was asked. Didn't you notice that the only reason we knew about the raid was because Trump blabbed about it on social media? We didn't hear about the June visit, and it seems as though the DOJ was doing their best to keep this on the down low for all parties involved.

    You don't know to be facts nor if there is any seriousness to it at all. You've been saying he's CLEARLY done something wrong for how long now?

    Well hate to tell you but you're assuming on that. I know you want to be right but let's be real clear here. The GSA boxes and inventories every item a President takes, for this very reason. They file the inventory with Archives and FBI. They wanted 15 of those boxes and got them. Now they wanted another 10 boxes for 11 documents. Wild accusations aren't going to cut it this go around, Garland raided a free citizens house and for the first time in 230 years a former Presidents home. It's not hard for normal Americans go so Hunter has pics committing felonies on a computer, emails detailing foreign government payments, even with a diamond. He's never been raided and he's getting on Air Force 1 last week and the day after Trump's home is raided. This has the appearance of something MAJOR, so something MAJOR better come from it, not some 11 documents with classified/declassified arguments. Garland has boxed the left in and you know it, either something big illegal comes from this, or he single handily reelected Trump and it's all because of the left's leaders Trump obsession.

    You're right. Trump is a private citizen. If they want national security documents back, they have every right.

    What purpose do those documents have in a private citizen's home? Why was NARA fighting to get back presidential records if the GSA approved and logged everything?

    Trump's team said he take those documents home for work. No big deal. Well guess what. He no longer works as a civil servant, so doesn't need those documents. What's the big issue with handing back work related material when you no longer work for the government?

    Someone said it was for a book he was writing, but that's not going to fly.

    No, all the goods were not known We are finding more out daily. Trump has hidden far more than anyone thought. This is a not uncommon occurrence when you are dealing with big time crime bosses.

    Paper trail who says there's a paper trail? He was the president he could declassify anything he wants the president has unilateral authority over that.

    There's no need for a paper trail.

    He can only have documents that the government tells him is okay to have. Why does a private citizen have more authority over the current government as it relates to government documents?

    Where in the constitution or statute does it say a former president has a right to government documents?

    Right. And Biden could have reclassified them in his head. Trump should have handed them over.

    In other words we are supposed to take your options and talking points as real, true, factual, without any proof?
