Why would they need to do that? He was informed of the illegality of his possession of the documents. That's all the disclosure a criminal needs before a search warrant is executed.
LOL You are misinformed. There was never any proof that her server was hacked or that she lied to investigators.
Nope. That's just the best right wing talking point anybody could spoon feed you, and it is easily dispatched by Biden simply apologizing and calling his own actions irresponsible. Or by revelations that the way the documents got to their final destinations were completely different. So if you want to set yourself up to be knocked over that easily, be my guest.
Interesting you would say that. Yes, like Trump.
So when they were there doing the inspection, telling him how to lock it etc (BTW, did Biden do that?) they didn't ask for the documents then? And if he didn't hand them over they would return with a search warrant?
The FBI were denied access to the boxes and only could look where they were stored so they got a search warrant. Trump claimed they were his property.
So did Biden
We don't know how many docs Biden has, do we?
Unprecedented in the history of our Nation.
Again given the unprecedented actions taken by Biden's DOJ, it hard to characterize Trump's lawyers action as "sinister."
I most certainly do not! The Obstruction charge is pretty much cut and dried. The details around the probable cause for the wilful retention of national defense documents is not something I can comment on beyond the Judge agreeing to probable cause
With a judge or jury.
So if denied, did they tell Trump that would lead to their return with a search warrant?
Did Trump claim he declassified them?
Uh... no.
Why would that make any difference? He claimed they all belonged to him. They had an informant that enabled them to get the warrant. Trump did not know about that most likely and no the FBI did not tell him that.
This is some pretty low IQ sea lioning. The answers to your questions are all very easily found and these facts are in the possession of anyone who has even made the tiniest effort to inform themselves on this topic.
Even after them telling him they would return with a raid and search warrant?
lol. The 'I'm sorry' defense? No. It's absolutely hypocritical of him - and more so of the people defending him.
They did tell him that. No law enforcement agency would ever tell anybody that. Why are you saying such stupid things?
Yes. It was hacked. Yes she lied. Comey even admitted that to congress.
Link to that Comey statement to Congress please. Mistakes are not lies. I bet you did not know that the most "secret" document were nothing but discussions of drone strikes that were also covered in the New York Times. Everyone knew who was sending those drones but was still "top secret" in the Govt. eyes.
Because you are misinformed. When a cop wants to search your car he will straight up tell you either you can comply, or I will get a warrant, That's SOP. Why do you not know common practices?
It's the flimsiest of all. In June Trump invites a Justice Department national security supervisor and three FBI agents to Mar-a-lago. He shows them the storage facility. Two days later the FBI sends him a thank you note and asks him to put an extra lock on the storage facility. In August they send in the SWAT team to kick in the doors if necessary? You think you can convince anyone that that is Obstruction?
So what?
We don't know that Biden had no authority, because he could have had such docs with authority temporarily while writing a book and then forgot to return them. That's retention, but not unauthorized removal. And he seems not to have had the intent not to return them.
It's not an espionage charge...you really are so incredibly ill informed. However, don't feel bad it seems to ne a requirement for many on the right. Debating facts would be so refreshing.
