Did the DOJ and FBI Lie To Get Another Warrant, This One to Recover Documents Exposing Their Crimes In Getting the Previous Fraudulent Russiagate Warrants?Neo-Neocon shared this theory, written up by her commenter TJ Olsen, but offered by Robert Barnes on Viva Frei's podcast. Federal defense attorney and aggressive Con Law advocate, Robert Barnes, has an unexpected take on the Deep State's further engagement with ex-Prez Trump. While I think there's a good chance that theory is overall right, the right absolutely must not follow the left in The Walls Are Closing In/The Train Is Running Out of Track claims. I do not for one second believe there are a handful of documents that establish, conclusively, the case that the Deep State committed a coup -- for crying out loud, why would the Deep State coupists write that down? That's not how it works. As you may have heard, Holocaust deniers/Hitler apologists are fond of pointing out that Hitler did not sign any order to undertake the final solution. Yes, he was careful about that and gave his orders verbally to Heydrich and others to relay his orders to the rest of the Nazi High Command. I'm pretty sure our coupists have learned a thing or two from Hitler. Another reason to doubt there's a smoking gun memo: Trump would have already have released that. He wouldn't just be holding on to it for future leverage. Still, while one must not fall into the trap of imagining that These Documents Mean The Much-Prophesized Storm Is Finally Here, one can imagine they contain information the plotters would find embarrassing and would prefer to not have to answer about at all. And in fact a Newsweek article claim that Trump was in fact "hoarding" documents about Russiagate, and that the main point of this raid was to collect up these damaging documents and hide them once more. The FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago last Monday was specifically intended to recover Donald Trump's personal "stash" of hidden documents, two high-level U.S. intelligence officials tell Newsweek. The source says that the negotiations to return the documents the National Archives claimed must be returned were cordial -- until the DOJ and FBI were tipped that Trump had Russiagate documents. And then they decided they had to raid Mar-a-Lago to get those documents, using the pretext of recovering the fairly mundane National Archives documents as cover. But in the course of its investigation, the FBI and Justice became aware of Trump's private collection. As Newsweek previously reported, a confidential human source revealed that the former president wasn't planning to divulge that he had possession of some of his own documents and that he did not intend to return them. Like, for example, exposing the misdeeds of the Russiagate coupists? "Trump was particularly interested in matters related to the Russia hoax and the wrong-doings of the deep state," one former Trump official tells Newsweek. "I think he felt, and I agree, that these are facts that the American people need to know." The official says Trump may have been planning to use them as part of a 2024 run for the presidency. The source say that it is helpful to think about their being two different sets of documents: the National Archives documents mentioned in the warrant, which the FBI is not really interested in, but which they claimed "exposed sources and methods" in order to justify the extremely broad search warrant, and the actual Russiagate documents, which were their true quarry, but which they did not want to admit. And which they might have very dubious legal pretext to seize, because Trump actually declassified them. Though, as John Solomon reported, the DOJ then slow-rolled the declassification order and informed Trump hours before he left office they needed more time to go through redactions -- thus claiming that the declassification had not gone through. Bullshit; the president's order was legally effective as soon as he gave it. A partisan leftwing bureaucrat has no right or power to veto him. Two other morsels to chew on, which may be congruent, or incongruent, with the above reportage. First: Paul Sperry, who Twitter banned without cause or explanation, reports that Hillary Clinton has been lobbying the DOJ hard to raid Trump's home and seize his documents for months now. Some of my friends caution to take Sperry with a grain of salt, as his sources are wrong as often as they are right. Posobiec does not say if he is reporting the following or just speculating it: Jack Posobiec 🇺🇸 @JackPosobiec He links this New York Times article, telling the story of the bitter liberal retiring National Archives director who saw Trump leaving the White House with boxes and decided that this needed to be investigated. In a statement, David S. Ferriero, the archivist of the United States, did not criticize Mr. Trump or directly accuse him of violating the Presidential Records Act. But Mr. Ferriero strongly defended the National Archives' mission and the need for presidents to follow federal record keeping laws. Tucker Carlson offered more texture to this story. He says this bitter liberal bureaucrat saw Trump leaving with the boxes on TV, and huffily exclaimed, "What's in those boxes?!," as if a man leaving an office he'd worked in for four years would not be expected to leave with boxes. And lobbied the DOJ to open up a file on it, ostensibly to make sure Trump didn't take any of his precious National Archives material. Meanwhile he gave Obama millions of documents to keep in his unbuilt "library." I've seen various speculations that the real reason the DOJ refuses to show the affidavit supporting their bullshit warrant is that it is based on media reports like this one -- which is the same M.O. by which they obtained their Russiagate warrants, citing media reports for which they themselves were the unacknowledged sources. Will Mitch McConnell, Kevin McCarthy, and Eyepatch John McCain demand to know whether Hillary Clinton or her lawyers or allies has been in contact with the DOJ about this, pushing another Russiagate on to the DOJ and FBI, which the DOJ and FBI promptly decided to take up? Or will they just go along with it? Spoiler: The latter.
