If you're upset at the FBI for enforcing the law, your problem isn't with the FBI, it's with the law. If you're outraged that the Department of Justice is investigating a serial criminal, your problem isn't with DoJ, it's that you are on the side of a criminal.

Ron DeSantis attacks law enforcement for legally raiding Mar-a-Lago while heโ€™s yet to say anything about the heinous Nazis in our state who've been rallying in support of him. Also, attacking a private company, Disney, for free speech is about as "banana republic" as it gets.

Screenshot of Bloomberg article: Billionaires are funding a massive treasure hunt in Greenland as ice vanishes
By Renรฉ Marsh, CNN 
Updated 6:17 PM EDT, Mon August 08, 2022

Nuussuaq, Greenland(CNN) Some of the world's richest men are funding a massive treasure hunt, complete with helicopters and transmitters, on the west coast of Greenland.

The climate crisis is melting Greenland down at an unprecedented rate, which -- in a twist of irony -- is creating an opportunity for investors and mining companies who are searching for a trove of critical minerals capable of powering the green energy transition.

Deep down this is also my conspiracy theory belief about billionaires actively contributing to climate change - because they know that as ice melts, new land becomes available that can be scouted for mining. The Arctic and Antarctica have vast swaths of unclaimed mineral wealth.

One pretty cool geological fun fact is that the Scottish Highlands, the Appalachians, and the Atlas are the same mountain range, once connected as the Central Pangean Mountains [read more: buff.ly/3oAZuKP]

Lawrence Revell should never have been police chief in the first place. It was only because of Dailey and Goadโ€™s incompetence that he was, and yet we wonder why Revell is running the department into one public embarrassment after another.

Oooh, yeah, let me tell you, when you're getting searched under a warrant likely approved by the Attorney General himself, that's totally who you want representing you -- a former OAN host Good luck Donnie

/19 The more I think about it, the more I suspect recent, highly actionable intelligence, possibly from a cooperator, drove this and its timing. The need for freshness -- proof that the evidence is there NOW -- is key.

NEW: The FBI notified the Secret Service that a warrant would be executed and Secret Service facilitated access to the Florida Trump property as fellow federal agents but did not take part in investigation or search.

So letโ€™s list the key differences: 1) This is the FBI, not operatives; 2) They legally obtained a search warrant from a federal judge; 3) They didnโ€™t break in, they executed a search warrant; 4) it appears POTUS didnโ€™t order this search.

If my understanding of the 2016 election is correct, the most important issue to Republican voters is the handling of classified material...
Quote Tweet
Sources confirm to @SaraMurray and @KristenhCNN that the FBI search on Mar a Lago was related to the handling of presidential documents, including classified documents, that may have been brought to MAL.

"The former president of the United States did not handle classified documents properly. I watched him do it...I watched him go through documents, throw some away, rip some up and put some in his pocket," Stephanie Grisham, Trump's former press secretary, says on CNN.

4) Taken together, this is one of the most significant, sensitive, and politically explosive actions the US Justice Department and FBI has ever takenโ€”one of a tiny handful of times it's ever investigated a president. Bottom line: The FBI & DOJ must've known they had the goods.

/13 Anyway, the warrant his hugely, historically significant. The feds do not seek search warrants lightly. It's a very major commitment to the case, an indication that they believe they have evidence that they think may well lead to indictment.

I am increasingly concerned that Americaโ€™s popcorn reserve is not sufficient for our current political situation. I hope that Congress and the White House is taking this issue seriously

A note about "banana republics." Yes, corrupt regimes politicize prosecutions. But corrupt regimes also permit powerful people to break the law with impunity. If the legal and evidentiary grounds for a search exist, then even a former president *should* be searched.

/2 To get a federal search warrant, a federal agent submits an affidavit under oath to a federal magistrate judge, setting forth where they want to search, for what items, and what the probable cause is that those things are evidence of a federal crime and are there.

Okay. Seems solid that the FBI searched Mar-A-Lago, based on multiple sources, including a very angry shouty man who is liveblogging it. Let's talk about what they had to do to get that search warrant, what it means, and what we'll be able to find out about the investigation. /1
