Trump, on his return to Washington, hatched a plan for the “biggest, grandest military parade ever for the Fourth of July”. But the plans went down badly with Trump’s cabinet staff.
“I’d rather swallow acid,” the defense secretary and former Marine Corps general, James Mattis, is reported to have said...

Kelly got in a decent burn too
“Why can’t you be like the German generals?” Donald Trump asked John Kelly, who was his White House chief of staff at the time, according to a new book. It depicts Trump as deeply frustrated by top military officials, whom he saw as insufficiently loyal. https://t.co/WunFHIU5bZ pic.twitter.com/ZvnqqJDw5B— The New York Times (@nytimes) August 8, 2022

I'm finding this hard to believe, since the main thing we know about Hitler's generals is that they were big time losers.

Holy shit — the FBI went to Mar-A-Lago with a search warrant! This image is real; Trump posted it on Truth Social.

nobody seems to know shit
The raid began early Monday morning and law enforcement personnel appeared to be focused on the area of the club where Trump's offices and personal quarters are, according to a person familiar with the matter.
The Justice Department declined to comment, as did the White House. A White House official said it was not notified about the raid.

There is some reporting that it was related to classified documents taken from the White House. I could have sworn we went through this already, but maybe it's just the wheels of justice moving slowly and finally catching up to what was reported months ago.

So turns out violating the Presidential Records Act, which was passed after Watergate, disqualifies you from holding elected office.

the whole shit drives me nuts, I mean I know conservatives have baby brains so I get that they might think the President can just order FBI raids for no reason but it's literally the previous fucking President, if there's anyone who ought to know what the POTUS can and can't do it's fucking him!! if he could order raids to settle personal vendettas he would've done it nonstop while he was in office!! he literally appointed the guy who approved the raid because he was a Trump loyalist!! do they stop and think for a single fucking second or is this another one of those things they say constantly but don't actually believe???

1/3Per sources: search warrant at Mar-a-Lago was related to retention of classified docs. FBI showed up at 9am and left at 6:30pm. They were in plain clothes -- so club staff likely thought they were secret service. That is why it didn't leak earlier.— Brian Entin (@BrianEntin) August 9, 2022

And even if they find some really good shit in his safe, really juicy stuff, it may not be covered in the narrow scope of the warrant

There was communication between the FBI and US Secret Service before the search warrant was executed Monday, a person familiar with the matter said, allowing for the FBI to access the estate without any complications. There is only a small Secret Service footprint at Mar-a-Lago when Trump is not there....The National Archives, charged with collecting and sorting presidential material, has previously said at least 15 boxes of White House records were recovered from Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort – including some that were classified.In early June, a handful of investigators made a rare visit to the property seeking more information about potentially classified material from Trump’s time in the White House that had been taken to Florida....The source said some of the documents shown to investigators had top secret markings.Five days later, on June 8, Trump’s attorneys received a letter from investigators asking them to further secure the room where the documents were stored. Aides subsequently added a padlock to the room....“It is a federal crime to remove classified documents wrongly. And so if you are filling out that affidavit and you have to list the crime, you can list that as the crime,” said Elie Honig, a former federal and state prosecutor and a CNN senior legal analyst.Honig told CNN’s Erin Burnett on “OutFront” that the timing of the search held with the longstanding department rule not to execute politically sensitive moves within 90 days of an election.“Today is just about 90 days out exactly from the midterms, I think maybe 91 or 92 days out. That policy, that may be a reason why they did it today because they want to stay clear of that if they’re interpreting that as a 90 day rule,” he said.

The only reason they would have to open the safe would be if someone told them what was likely in the safe, no?
I like the detail that it wasn't, like, some vault, it was just some shitty standard hotel safe.

I am curious why this Asshole who had no attachment to the office or job or White House or really much at all would take 15 boxes of *anything* with him, let alone 15 boxes of documents. He seems like the type of Asshole that would just leave all his shit behind. Also, 15 boxes is a lot. There is no way this dickhead knows what is in those boxes, right? He probably just told some underling to dump everything from the Oval Office into some boxes and ship it down to Florida, like someone who stays in hotels and compulsively takes home all the free pens, paper, soaps, shampoos, anything that's not nailed down.
