So far?
Donald Trump isn’t getting anyplace legally against the FBI taking back classified stuff from his residence in Florida….
As a matter of fact?
Just about everything Trump has done oin this smacks of a person guilty of doing something he shouldn’t have ….Trump isn’t talking about his actual actions as usual…He’s fight others that cause his worry and pain….
Talking about a 4th amendment effort to throw out the search evidence isn’t gonna work either…
We’re talking about National Security doucuments…
(Trump probably does NOT want to have to explain about ALL the stuff taken released to the public and?….Trump himself outed the raid…NOT the FBI)
The serach and its result’s ‘unreasonable’?
Why?
Cause he’s a EX-President?….
A civilian like the rest of us?
Former President Trump on Friday hinted at taking legal action in response to the FBI search of his Mar-a-Lago property last week.
Trump said in a post on his social media platform Truth Social that a “major motion” related to the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution will soon be filed related to the search. He claimed his rights have been violated at a level “rarely seen” before.
The Fourth Amendment protects people against unreasonable searches and seizures.
Trump’s post comes after a federal judge said on Thursday that he might be willing to unseal parts of an affidavit that was used to establish probable cause for the FBI to search the Palm Beach, Fla., property.
Judge Bruce Reinhart, who approved the search warrant, said he did not believe the Justice Department (DOJ) proved why the document should remain entirely private and instructed officials to suggest redactions to the document.
Reinhart unsealed the warrant itself and some related documents following the search after Attorney General Merrick Garland announced that the DOJ supported publicizing it, given the significant public interest in the situation and that Trump had revealed the search took place….
….
The unsealed warrant revealed that the FBI suspected Trump violated multiple laws, including the Espionage Act. Eleven sets of classified items were seized during the search.
Trump argued that he declassified the documents at Mar-a-Lago while serving as president, but legal experts have said that Trump may still have violated the Espionage Act if he did so because classification status is not relevant to the provisions of the law….
Note…
Trump is probably thinking of this route because weither the stuff was classified or not….
Having them IS a Federal crime just like having something reported stolen in your possesion is also….
Update…
Trump is throwing EVERYTHING at this…..
Must be pretty Damn Worried, eh?
He want’s thing’s taken from the judge and the FBI, no doubt…..
Former President Donald Trump is considering filing a motion that calls for a “special master” to review the evidence seized by the FBI from Mar-a-Lago, his attorney said on Mark Levin’s radio show….
And what do Rep say?
They love him!
His support has increased since this happened and his would be opponents for the nomination?Cowed into silence or actively supporting Trump in his vendetta against the FBI.
His support is NOTHING near it was before Jan. 6…..
Yes….GOPer’s would be generally wise to kiss his ring……
We’ll see on the nomination….
Pence, DeSantis, Hailey and others ARE running right now….
Trump trying get past a judge who has his case and is sympathetic to the Feds firstrequest for the warrant ….
Lawyers for former President Donald Trump asked a federal judge Monday to prevent the FBI from continuing to review documents recovered from his Florida estate earlier this month until a neutral special master can be appointed to inspect the records.….

Update ….
A federal judge in Florida gave notice on Saturday of her “preliminary intent” to appoint an independent arbiter, known as a special master, to conduct a review of the highly sensitive documents that were seized by the F.B.I. this month during a search of Mar-a-Lago, former President Donald J. Trump’s club and residence in Palm Beach.
In an unusual action that fell short of a formal order, the judge, Aileen M. Cannon of the Federal District Court for the Southern District of Florida, signaled that she was inclined to agree with the former president and his lawyers that a special master should be appointed to review the seized documents.
But Judge Cannon, who was appointed by Mr. Trump in 2020, set a hearing for arguments in the matter for Thursday in the federal courthouse in West Palm Beach — not the one in Fort Pierce, Fla., where she typically works….
