By Ashe O Washington on August 27, : The former US President Donald Trump took an unpredictable victory lap after an affidavit heavily redacted which revealed the likely motive of the warrant for search at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida in the middle of August.
The day before, Trump took to TruthSocial his app for social media to claim that he was happy in the fact that the report was “heavily removed” after pointing out “nothing is mentioned in the document “nuclear”” and is a “total public relations scheme of the FBI and DOJ”.
He also criticized the magistrate judge Bruce Reinhart, who ordered the redacted affidavit.He claimed he should “never allow the break-in of my residence”.
Of course it was not a “break-in” was permitted however, rather the search warrant was issued to get classified information and possession of which could constitute a felony under a law the President of the time had signed in the year 2018.
“He (Judge Reinhart) removed himself about two months ago in one of my cases due to his hatred and animosity of the President you love and me.What has changed? Why is it that he removed himself in this case? Obama must be extremely happy of his current position,” Trump added.
Numerous media reports in the US were awestruck with his response and the outbursts of his supporters, led by Fox News.
Trump’s response was nothing more than a page of the ‘best defence is a good offense strategy.If he was found to possess highly classified and classified information that was classified, it is possible that he might be in the realm of legal hazard, according to some reports, which believed that the former president was well on the way towards an indictment.
Conservatives that is, Republicans as well as Trump supporters were on Twitter and became agitated after they finally saw the heavily redacted statement of the FBI raid.
A few days earlier, an Federal judge in Florida removed the affidavit, which was redacted and 38 pages long that was used to justify the warrant executed against Trump’s Florida home.
The report from Fox News Digital reported soon after the document was made available for public inspection, “20 pages of the 38-page affidavit were either substantially or completely removed”.
After examining the affidavit, and seeing the amount of information that was blacked out The conservatives attacked the FBI and accused the agency of not being transparent about the raid, and for not having provided sufficient and clear evidence that a raid at Trump’s home was necessary.
The Daily Wire’s twitter account posted the image of one of the pages of the document which was completely blacked out and sarcastically said: “This is very helpful! Thanks!”
Sarky version, Washington Times columnist Tim Young tweeted: “This affidavit is as informative as we’ve all believed that it would be” and also shared images of parts of the document that were completely obscured.
Conservative journalist Carmine Sabia tweeted: “The most amusing portion of this affidavit lies in the media claiming that it proves something.The purpose of this was to defend the presidency of Joe Biden and the Democrats in 2024.”
The Federalist co-founder Sean Davis shared multiple images of completely redacted pages of the affidavit.He wrote: “Transparency is one of the FBI’s and DOJ’s main interests.The DOJ and FBI are so corrupt that they’re censoring their motives to redact information in their reasons for conducting a search of the US President’s residence.Whatever amount of disdain you feel for these agencies that are not lawful isn’t enough.”
Breitbart’s Joel Pollak slammed the FBI’s justification and said: “Reading through the affidavit.The main complaint is that the Trump’s boxes were disorganized and that potentially sensitive items were mixed in with junk and memorabilia.To find this they seized the home of a former US President’s residence.”
The son of the former President Donald Trump Jr.tweeted out the images that were blacked out and added: “Well this really clears things up.”
Trump Communications Director Taylor Budowich said in a series of tweets: “The release of a heavily edited, overtly political affidavit is a clear indication that the Biden administration is determined to hide their unprecedented, unjustified, and un-American attack on the president Donald J.Trump.
“This is an absolute travesty.the fact that this isn’t redacted confirms President Trump’s position.there was absolutely no reason to warrant a raid.it’s all about politics.”
Conservative radio personality Vince Coglianese pointed out a important piece of information that cannot be read in the document.”In the statement that the Justice Department acknowledged that Trump’s lawyers and former officials have cited his absolute authority to declassify documents when he was president.If the DOJ clarifies why they didn’t consider the issue, their reasoning is completely obscured,” he tweeted.
“So in the end Biden’s FBI recently raided the home of his political opponent , and they don’t have the need to explain why.If you’re wondering whether we’re to the edge,” said another conservative radio host, Jesse Kelly.
