Trump Passports Were Seized In Mar-a-Lago Raid

PS: LinnieMae and Cath, I replied to you both down below. LinnieMae, I also had to apologize as I had numbers wrong.

Rosenstein lied about who was doing what, so that all that was done was paper pushing and thumb sitting until the issuance of the report. Meanwhile it was all out of his hands ... tRUMP was protected, and he resigned with a "legacy" intact that he is polishing whenever he surfaces from the gutter...

Ready? This is what WE saw...and were placated by. Mueller Gov. website for Special Investigation: https://www.justice.gov/sc The letter to Mueller outlining his mandate in special investigation: In a letter formalizing the appointment, *Rosenstein said Mueller was authorized to oversee the entire Russia investigation, including “any links and/or coordination between the Russian government and individuals associated with the campaign of President Donald Trump” and “any matters that arose or may arise directly from the investigation.”* http://www.documentcloud.org/documents/3726408-Rosenstein-letter-appointing-Mueller-special.htm

This is what really happened... In 2017 Rosenstein briefed Mueller to not go to the destination he said he should go in HIS LETTER we all read above. Rod Rosenstein took secret steps to narrow Mueller's investigation, ensuring Trump's Russia ties were never looked at, so no WONDER tRUMP kept him around so long… "Rosenstein concluded the F.B.I. lacked sufficient reason to conduct an investigation into the president’s links to a foreign adversary." And more! "Within days, the former deputy attorney general Rod J. Rosenstein curtailed the investigation without telling the bureau, all but ensuring it would go nowhere." https://t.co/67m7IOsB40?amp=

Then Trump named Matthew Whitaker as Acting Attorney General, and Whitaker took over oversight of Mueller's investigation until Barr was confirmation as AG. Rosenstein was a ratf*cker POS snipe. https://www.newyorker.com/news/daily-comment/rod-rosensteins-strange-letter-of-thanks-to-donald-trump

I agree what was in them is crucial, but keep wondering why the number is changing.

The 27 boxes were FOUND in Maralogo. Not all were removed. Among those boxes were 11 sets of classified documents. So everyone is guessing ... but at least a dozen were seen being loaded. The items list mention 21 boxes, but some may be boxes within boxes that were labelled separately. (As the leather-bound most sensitive documents and binders were likely found in the safe, and the leather bound box would have been put into another box to remove)

NPR has a copy of the warrant AND the receipt labelled for the FBI internally, so I won't guess what that means. The number of classified documents and what he planned/did with them is what is relevant.

https://www.npr.org/2022/08/12/1117277865/read-the-full-warrant-documents-from-fbi-search-of-trumps-mar-a-lago-home

UPDATE: I was wrong about the 27 boxes. They did remove them because the warrant allowed them to take any box that was in the same location as a box they found classified info in. According to Wray, who knows how to read the receipt left by the FBI, that first section can be read that the FBI actually removed 33 boxes in total. (See NPR story above for warrant)

So after returning 15 boxes after being asked for a year by several Gov entities then ignoring a subpoena that compels tRUMP to return them all, he lied and had his lawyer sign off that they were all returned. I recommend listening to this as they (Williams is former Fed prosecutor, and Wray, former head FBI) remind that tRUMP is an adult acting like a spoiled child and STATE THAT for a change.

Just read that he got them back. Them? How many does he have?

Three. One valid, one expired, and a special one for presidents.

2 were expired, one valid. They should have kept the expired ones, as they're allowed to.

Thanks, Charon! It wasn’t paywalled for me so didn’t catch that. 🖖✌️

I'm not sure, since I subscribe to daily beast, but I sent someone something and they weren't allowed to read it.

With the weird threat about “terrible things” and trump asking Garland if he wanted help calming things after trump at every turn has been the one inciting his supporters, I’m convinced this is the thrashing of a cornered criminal.

Everything about all of this is pointing to him having worked on behalf of Russia to damage this country from the inside. There was no need to have those documents except to feed them to Russia. Nuclear secrets and intelligence operatives. The only question is if he already did.

Was trump working for Putin? It could also raise questions about trump’s 400,000 to 500,000 excess covid deaths because of how he botched the US covid response and even contaminated all those masks at that factory. If trump was doing Putin’s bidding, could they be considered murders?

Just asking like Tucker Carlson… 🖖✌️🤣😂

He is a dangerous man. I have no links but seen reports that he is attempting to incite his fascist "patriots" towards something similar to the one he encouraged at the Capitol. Even wanting it extended towards individual public servants In other words, armed attacks on law enforcement officials. I call him deranged, but also wonder if at some point this will step into the area of illegality. I have no doubt your state servants are doing a great and difficult job under tricky circumstances. Who knows what appalling crimes and terror would be unleashed without them.

It’s already illegal. Trump has pushed the limits so far he’s past them but nobody will reign him in. He’s inciting violence and threatening witnesses and officials. He whipped the one guy up into attacking an FBI office with a nail gun and the guy was put down. Asking Merrick Garland about “lowering the temperature” isn’t illegal but was designed to mock and divide.

Trump is a menace, a traitor, and his only path to survival is to try to win in 2024. He’ll burn the country down before he is jailed.

"Asking Merrick Garland about 'lowering the temperature' isn’t illegal but was designed to mock and divide."

It's mostly designed to frighten by telling Garland that #PeopleAreOnFire about the search, and reminding him who has control over that fire. And you know how the DOJ can avoid the fire? Donnie can help but, "I would like you to do us a favor". "You got a nice country here, I wouldn't want anything to happen to it."

I'm trying to stop being distracted by Psycho Donnie's noise after watching Rachel interview a former DOJ espionage prosecutor last night. He put things in perspective, interview starts at about 8:50 here ...

Remember when 8 Republicans flew to Moscow to speak with Putin on the 4th of July?

Daily Beast (Jul. 10, 2018): GOP Senators Tell Contradictory Stories About Moscow Trip

And when Sergei Lavrov and Sergey Kislyac visited trump in the oval office without any US observers the day after trump fired Comey?

There were probably many more secret meetings between Crooked Donnie and Putin than we'll ever know about.
