Garland just dropped a well placed bomb on Trump and all the pro Trump media spin after the FBI ....

Last edited Thu Aug 11, 2022, 04:13 PM - Edit history (1)

... search with his statement today.

He dared Trump to block the unsealing of the search warranty and the property seized invoice which
when released should show what laws Trump broke and then he called out Fox and so on for lying
about the work of the men & women of the FBI and the DoJ.

Watch how quick Trump now tries to block the unsealing of the warrant and the release of the property
invoice.

But my curiosity is piqued to eleven, and I'm damned and fried if I can figure out what the weak spin is they'll feed to their idiot base this weekend.

30. And 33 Million Pages of Docs National Archives is sending to the Obama Library
Thu Aug 11, 2022, 06:59 PM
Aug 2022

But it's rare the "National Archives" and "Library" part make it into their little brains. And probably less than 50-50 on the "pages of" part. So it often comes out as:
33 Million (Pages of) Docs sent to Obama

Bit by bit, it's getting clearer how easily Donnie's Deplorable Dupes are to deceive.

That's what they'll say.

From him:

Not only will I not oppose the release of documents related to the unAmerican, unwarranted, and unnecessary raid and break-in of my home in Palm Beach, Florida, Mar-a-Lago, I am going a step further by ENCOURAGING the immediate release of those documents, even though they have been drawn up by radical left Democrats and possible future political opponents, who have a strong and powerful vested interest in attacking me, much as they have done for the last 6 years…

My poll numbers are the strongest they have ever been, fundraising by the Republican Party is breaking all records, and midterm elections are fast approaching. This unprecedented political weaponization of law enforcement is inappropriate and highly unethical. The world is watching as our Country is being brought to a new low, not only on our border, crime, economy, energy, national security, and so much more, but also with respect to our sacred elections!

Release the documents now!

Still being an a-hole.

He will do his best to block unsealing.. and if successful blame it on Biden.

And if not, the contents will be fake news.

And not one of his his base will care a whit that either claim is obviously false.

He knows how to pull their strings to do his dirty work. We need a real process to re-educate our citizens who have been brain washed and corrupted. Faux news needs to be sued for the damage they caused, too.

After WWII, the British and other Allies focused on re-education and democratization of the German people. We need to apply the same logic here.
