FBI raids Trump’s Mar-a-Lago

[Rick Plant]

The FBI warrant reveals Criminal Donald is under DOJ investigation for violating the Espionage Act.

Ahead of this afternoon’s court hearing, Criminal Donald has preemptively leaked his copy of the DOJ/FBI search warrant of Mar-a-Lago to Breitbart, in an apparent attempt at letting the right wing propaganda site place the most positive spin on it possible. But even Breitbart’s attempt at a sunny characterization of the warrant points to huge trouble for Donnie.

The warrant reveals that the seizure of classified documents from Trump’s home is part of a DOJ investigation into Trump for violating section 793 of the Espionage Act, along with obstruction and other crimes. This is obviously huge news, but when placed within proper context, it gets even uglier for Trump

This presumably means that the DOJ went to a federal judge and revealed that it was investigating Donald Trump for violating the Espionage Act, and the judge reviewed the relevant evidence and concluded that Trump was more likely guilty than not, and then signed the warrant.

It looks like Trump’s last ditch stunt of preemptively leaking the warrant to his pals at Breitbart didn’t help him any. Either Trump and his legal team didn’t understand how bad the reference to Section 793 was, or Breitbart didn’t selectively edit what it was supposed to selectively edit. Oops.

It’s also worth keeping in mind that this is in addition to the DOJ’s fairly well documented criminal probe into Criminal Donald's fake elector scheme and attempt at overthrowing the 2020 election. That’s right, espionage is just one of the major crimes that Trump is under federal criminal investigation for. This is just getting started.

Criminal Donald may have been trying to sell our highest intelligence to our adversaries according to some sources.

[Rick Plant]

The rabid MAGA base wanted to throw Clinton in prison over private emails.

Criminal Donald stole the most sensitive top secret documents and is under criminal investigation of the Espionage Act and his deranged base still covers for him.

Never in the history of the United States has an ex "president" been criminally investigated for espionage.

And the Republican party is defending this.

Republicans are traitors and unfit to govern America.

Sources tell me the FBI took dozens of classified documents from Mar-a-Lago including TS/SCI information. That stands for Top Secret/Sensitive Compartmented Information. It is among the most top secret level.

The top secret classified documents were found in former President Trump's office above the ballroom and a storage room off an interior hallway near the pool.

The storage room – I am told – is about 10x6 feet and there “were boxes everywhere.”

If you’ve been aboard the Trump Train the last 7 years, you’ve been given an unexpected stop. Time to get off. Wherever you think this is going, it’s not. Trump stole Top Secret documents. He’s put a target on the backs of cops. This is getting ugly. Don’t be in the wreckage.
