No one disputes that Trump did illegally grab 25 BOXES of records, property which belonged to the government, not him, and it included some stuff so top secret it cannot be described or even mentioned.

But rather than demand that Trump explain why he broke the law to take and hold that property, I think it much more productive to demand that the FBI explain what it was doing in a house full of illegally taken records with top secret documents.  The trump-appointed judge who signed off on the warrant, and trump appointed FBI director, need to explain to the American people why they were going after those top secret and illegally held records in Trump's home.  And how do we know that the Trump-appointed director didn't have his men plant documents they "found"?
McCarthy says the DOJ has been "weaponized" now, so who knows? Like most of us, I long for the stability and evenhandedness of the DOJ under Sessions and Barr. 

If the DOJ can do this to Trump for illegally taking and holding highly classified documents--they could do it to any of us!!

Then when they found no evidence of intentional wrong doing, or actual breeches or leaks,
the FBI just scolded her publicly days before an election decided by 80,000 votes in four states. 
The Benghazi fishing expedition panned out. 

They didn't break into her home because she was not storing boxes and boxes of illegally held
records there, and then obstructing their proper return.

For all we know, the Trump "raid" may end in a similar scolding, and a boost in his polling numbers.

He could fight it which would only make sense in MAGA world Garland also confirmed that Trump's lawyers have a copy, as is required by law.

Quote:A person using Shiffer’s name on TruthSocial, Trump’s social media site, posted a “call to arms” message shortly after Monday’s FBI search became public.


“People, this is it,” the message said. “Leave work tomorrow as soon as the gun shop/Army-Navy store/pawn shop opens, get whatever you need to be ready for combat. We must not tolerate this one. They have been conditioning us to accept tyranny and think we can’t do anything for 2 years. This time we must respond with force.”
