Justice Department ask court to unseal Trump Mar-a-Lago estate search warrant

Merrick Garland on Thursday confirmed the Department of Justice has asked a federal court in Florida to unseal the search warrant for Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home.

The Attorney General said the department was asking the US District Court for the Southern District of Florida to unseal the warrant, which authorised a “court-approved” search for classified documents at the former president’s home.

Mr Garland also addressed the “recent, unfounded attacks” on the professionalism of FBI agents, saying he “will not stand by silently while their integrity is unfairly attacked”.

Glad the warrant is being unsealed, looks like the truth will come out

[mrhead]

I look at Garland and he gives me the feeling that the devil has put a large deposit on his soul. What he hopes to get in return is beyond me.

They’ve lost a lot of credibility over the Russian collusion scandal and Hunter scandal. Hard to come back from those.

Funny he finally comes out with a non-statement a few hours after confirmation that the Mar-a-Lago staff did not turn off the security cameras and captured everything the FBI agents got up to. He looks nervous.

[chillmydudes]

[loveisbeautifulfigueroa]

I don’t trust this department, if they could this to a former President what would they do to us.

RELAX! WHY SO NERVOUS?? YOUR TURN TO PAY THE PRICE WILL COME AND I AM LIBERAL!!!!

[StuMas]

He was silent and didn't seem bothered by the attacks on the judges and their integrity following the abortion ruling. He's so full of it, he speaks and looks like it!
