Heck Yes! Loam! posted:It doesn't have to be for a single crime and they likely had reason to believe that the evidence was not only present, but likely to be destroyed or not produced in a subpoena. I really hate speculating, but what are the odds this is tied to Alex Jones' phone? I mean I'd understand if the time frame is way too close, but Jones' lawyers accidentally send a copy of his phone to the Sandy Hook parents -> they turn over the phone to the Jan 6 committee -> they give it to the DOJ -> FBI raids Mar-a-Lago. It's probably too quick of a turnaround time for that. They'd probably have to verify the phone contents and whatnot. But what if...

No loving clue but it's probably unrelated. The time and effort to get this warrant probably took months of work.

It would have to have been some incredibly precise messages about things that were at MAL right-the-gently caress-now, which is very unlikely.

Mainstream liberal pols and journos taking over the "Dark Brandon" thing as Trump flails about screaming about his house and his safes is the funniest combination of events that we've had for a while.

cr0y posted:What's dark Brandon, I'm assuming something very very stupid It's the hip new political meme that supposes that Joe Biden has been replaced with some alternate universe doppelganger with superpowers because he's suddenly started actually doing poo poo with his presidency and they're co-opting the "Let's Go Brandon" meme to troll the chuds with it. It is indeed very stupid, but also mildly funny.

Hasnt the public known that Trump took a bunch of documents home for quite a while now? That's why initially when I heard the place got raided today I didn't think it was a huge deal in fact I was wondering what took so long. Apparently it's mega huge though.

Not sure I understand it. The classified stuff was just three pages? Or they already have a list three pages long of classified stuff that he should not have taken?

That's pretty much it; it's a big deal they're doing a raid, and it seems like they're looking for something specific beyond "he has stuff he shouldn't have" which implies there's something larger or more pressing about what's going on than what was previously known. At least, that's my understanding

There’s a decent chance trump hauled off anything he thought he could make a quick buck selling. No idea what this missile schematic is but my Chinese friend offered 4 mil for it.

I'm wondering if this is how Garland runs the DOJ. Despite all of the yelling and criticism, nobody responds or hints at anything until BOOM everything is suddenly in motion. This reminds me of Benjamin Wittes and his "baby cannon" gimmick on twitter. ah, how time flies... https://twitter.com/benjaminwittes/status/880597124794200064?lang=en

This is getting a bit misstated. The “100 pages” refers to 15 boxes handed to the National Archives in January. From the article: quote:In January, the National Archives and Records Administration retrieved 15 boxes of documents and other items from Mar-a-Lago that Archives officials said should have been turned over when Trump left the White House.

Heck Yes! Loam! posted:God I hope they start eating each other alive over the distrust this is likely to sow. It was Trump's own lawyers. From CNN: In early June, a handful of investigators made a rare visit to the property seeking more information about potentially classified material from Trump's time in the White House that had been taken to Florida. The four investigators, including Jay Bratt, the chief of the counterintelligence and export control section at the Justice Department, sat down with two of Trump's attorneys, Bobb and Evan Corcoran, according to a source present for the meeting. At the beginning of the meeting, Trump stopped by and greeted the investigators near a dining room. After he left, without answering any questions, the investigators asked the attorneys if they could see where Trump was storing the documents. The attorneys took the investigators to the basement room where the boxes of materials were being stored, and the investigators looked around the room before eventually leaving, according to the source.

The FBI enters Trump’s office, pries a single selected floorboard up, reaches down and pulls a single dusty manila file folder out of the floor. The label: “Her Emails”
