Thinking outside the box. Good problem solvers often can think well outside the norms. In the case of the Mar-a-Lago raid there appears to be a larger story going on. One has to look at the whole gamut of what is going on to fully appreciate that. What might seem to be one thing on the surface can turn out to be something else entirely.
What was the Mar-a-Lago raid all about? I think most rational people have come to the conclusion that the FBI was trying to recover the evidence that PDJT has that demonstrates the subversion of our government to a cabal. That cabal has infiltrated the agencies and is now trying to cement their power over everyone in the country.
In March Trump filed a lawsuit in the Southern District of Florida, alleging that Clinton and her “cohorts orchestrated an unthinkable plot” and “maliciously conspired to weave a false narrative” that Trump was colluding with Russia.
This week, U.S. District Judge Donald Middlebrooks threw out the lawsuit, saying that “most of” Trump’s claims were “unsupported by any legal authority” and said the lawsuit lacks “substance.” The judge had some sharp words directed at PDJT’s lawyers. In some respects it appeared that PDJT’s lawyers had not done their work properly.
The media jumped in relishing an opportunity to smear PDJT. As noted by the Washington Times, “Judge Donald M. Middlebrooks, a Clinton appointee, said Mr. Trump’s filing was too lengthy, detailing events that “are implausible because they lack any specific allegations which might provide factual support for the conclusions reached.”
Were PDJT’s lawyers incompetent or is there another agenda at play here? Did PDJT’s lawyers simply invent a lawsuit? Or did they review the documentary evidence in PDJT’s possession to prepare the charges in the RICO lawsuit? I think we know which question has a “yes” answer.
The lawsuit [108-Page Lawsuit Here] would have required dozens of attachments with hundreds of citations. None of that was present in the filing. Now one can be sure that all the corrupt players in Washington were looking for what evidence PDJT had. They could read the charges and surmise what evidence PDJT might have. And they wanted to recover that evidence and bury it somewhere never to be seen again.
So, how to protect the evidence? Trump’s lawsuit became the method. It allowed PDJT to legally transfer the evidence to his lawyers because they needed it for the RICO lawsuit.
Sundance notes:
Whoever wrote the lawsuit had obviously reviewed the evidence to support the filing. However, the attachments and citations were missing. That was weird. That’s when I realized the purpose of the lawsuit. In hindsight, things became clear when the DOJ-NSD raided the home of Donald Trump, and suddenly the motive to confiscate the documents that would be the missing lawsuit attachments and citations surfaced.
The raid was never about a dispute between PDJT and the National Archives about presidential records. It was never about the breathlessly told narrative about nuclear codes. It was about protecting the corrupt players in Washington from being exposed.
From Sundance:
With the manipulative, and I say intentional, “ongoing investigation” angle of the John Durham probe essentially blocking public release of declassified documents showing the efforts of all the lawsuit participants (Trump-Russia Collusion Hoax), President Trump needed a legal way to secure and more importantly share the evidence.
Think of it like the people around Trump wanting to show lawyers the evidence in the documents. However, because of the construct of the lawfare being deployed against Trump, any lawyer would need a *reason* to review the evidence. The Trump -v- Clinton et al lawsuit becomes that ‘reason.’
This is problem-solving at its best. A very public way was found to protect the evidence from being “disappeared.”
The “corrupt” will do anything to avoid exposure. Doing anything includes inventing the idea that PDJT had top secret documents stored at Mar-a-Lago and leaking it to the media. It included staging photos of documents strewn haphazardly on the floor with “Classified” markings visible.
Here’s where the concept of information silos comes into play. The different agencies in the government have their own information silos. The FBI is separate from the CIA. The IRS is separate from the DIA. And so on. The ODNI was created to help bridge the gap on national security issues. How well that has worked is open to debate.
What Trump did was to create an information silo where the evidence could be stored and shared. It is called attorney-client privilege. This becomes a way to defend against the corrupt motives of the lawfare crew (in this case, the DOJ).
Why is the DOJ so desperate to prevent a Special Master, even one with security clearance, from viewing these documents? The most common supposition is that the documents show the FBI and DOJ’s role in fashioning and perpetrating the phony Russian Collusion narrative. That would be damning.
And BTW, It is improper to classify documents simply to prevent embarrassment to persons or agencies. And anyone who does this is subject to sanctions. Obama’s Executive Order 13526 reads in relevant part:
This is what the special master battle is all about. Again, the DOJ, FBI, et al, cannot afford to have anyone see the evidence. That is why they are claiming that no one outside the DOJ, not even a former FISA Court judge, should be assigned to review the material.
Sundance reviewed why the evidence was not attached to the filing:
There were no attachments and/or citations to the documentary evidence in the 108-page filing, because there was a legal risk to citing evidence with a status in dispute by the corrupt people in Main Justice and the FBI. Secondarily, there was an obstruction risk to the President, if his legal team was to publish citations that were part of an ongoing investigation (Durham). However, this doesn’t negate the value of constructing the information silo, an attorney-client privilege.
If the documents seized by the FBI were part of the lawsuit established by President Trump and his legal team via Trump -v- Clinton, then the material seized is all attorney client work product. Lawfully obtained, constitutionally declassified and legally protected material.
Once again, PDJT has created public attention to what is going on. Originally the DOJ said they tried to go quietly to Mar-a-Lago so as not to provoke a media circus. That was just BS. They had hoped to not have public attention shined on what was happening there because of the corrupt nature of what they were doing. If they actually thought they had a legitimate reason to be there, I am sure that CNN would have been tipped off to show up like they did with Roger Stone.
The attention is creating a situation where it will be difficult to memory hole the existence of this evidence. Once again PDJT seems to be ahead of his pursuers by more than a few steps. This raises another question. Why is the FBI raiding Trump’s friends? Are they looking for copies of such evidence? Why is it rumored that lawyers’ offices may be raided next?
Is this the reason we are now hearing the “people will die” if the evidence becomes public? Are the elites trying to scare people into going back to be sheeple led by their overlords? What was the nature of this comment from Hillary Clinton in 2016?
“If that f***ing bastard [Donald Trump] wins, we all hang from nooses.”
One of the big items being revealed in this battle over the Special Master is that the DOJ-NSD believes that they are not accountable to any judge or anyone else in the judicial system. The law is what they say it is. This is the KGB and the Gestapo on steroids. How dare anyone, let alone a female judge appointed by PDJT, question what they are doing.
It will be interesting to see how this plays out. The problem with losing credibility (how much does the DOJ and FBI have at this point?) is that no one trusts you. As lawyers often tell juries, “”false in one thing, false in everything.” This is as true of government officials and agencies as it is for the rest of us.
These people are morally bankrupt. They are corrupt criminals who tried to steal an election in 2016 and succeeded in 2020. They have been illegally spying on Americans since the beginnings of the Obama administration. They will try to continue to do this.
In the mean time the best thing any of us can do is prepare ourselves via psychological toughness. This can be obtained through thought and prayer. We can walk into the fire when steeled by conviction that everything we do is righteous. I’m not sure legal or political means will undo the evil but it must be tried and for that reason I pray for Trump and his team’s success.
