Trump’s attorneys can review security camera footage of the FBI agents.

No, because USSS are law enforcement officers who swear an oath to the Constitution, not to petty tyrants, and cannot follow illegal orders.

Well, I mean, ok, in theory, but in practice, the USSS has some issues with all this at present.

No no no…

Republicans that plead the fifth are honorable patriots that refuse to submit to witch hunts.

Democrats are guilty just for existing let alone pleading anything.

Why is he in NYC again?

I don’t think they’ll find anything untoward because I don’t think evidence was planted, but what I meant is that if they’re going to claim that the FBI planted evidence, they should “investigate” that claim or shut up about it.

If Trump's attorneys had any evidence of planting evidence, misconduct, etc., they would be in court right now fighting for a TRO to stop the FBI from going through the boxes it seized. Instead, they are on Fox News and NewsMax blathering on to the idiot cult.

You realize they are not his private security guards? He can’t order them to do anything, let alone override their bosses’ orders.

The FBI agents who conducted the search worked in "taint teams" to prevent attorney-client privileged documents from being taken. That tells me they're in a hurry to get this resolved so they can make a decision whether or not to file charges. Considering the traditional 60-90 day window before an election where DOJ doesn't take any politically-sensitive actions, I can't believe that DOJ would let this simmer during that window without taking any action shortly. If they're going to charge Trump I gotta think it's going to be soon.

And if they don't charge him? Can't have a press conference like Comey did about Hillary. Quite the conundrum.

So all of the "back the blue" and "blue live matter" rubes are cliaming the men in blue are corrupt.

I am so confused.

Trump isn’t running in any election soon, so I don’t think that’s pressing. The midterms do not count.

The FBI isn’t the same as local law enforcement.
