Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), chair of the House Intelligence Committee and member of the Jan. 6 Select Committee, on Sunday outlined what information the public can learn from the release of a redacted affidavit that led to the FBI’s search of former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort earlier this month.
“Reinhart, who has faced an onslaught of threats and harassment from Trump supporters since signing off on the search warrant, reportedly acknowledged redaction process could be lengthy and sometimes turns documents into ‘meaningless gibberish’.”
In all fairness, Trump supporters have been swallowing meaningless gibberish for a long time now.
The only reason the possibility of releasing it is being considered is that TFG has made it an issue by his bellyaching. It would be a bad precedent to release this affidavit.
I don’t think it’s necessarily nefarious Trump strategic bellyaching. The “legacy news outlets” have been clamoring for it and filled a motion with the court to release the affidavit. Trump’s lawyers, if that’s what they really are, haven’t said a word about this process and his other “shyster from the dark side,” Mr. Trusty ( sounds like the name of an invisible friend) is filing for a special master 2 weeks after the fact. In short the Trump defense is inept, as usual.
For Trump: In any social parlance, words can be weaponized. No matter what those words are. It comes naturally to him and he has the ability to utilize others for that purpose.
That one I don’t think so. Should be a massive story, whomever scoops the actual snitch is in for a shiny cheap trophy and a round of applause at next year’s media awards dinner of whatever.
They have a never ending need for click bait to drive their both sides, false equivalence, outrage business model. Public edification would be one of those inadvertent consequences.
We will see if he even files the request for a special master that his attorney claimed would be filed on Friday. Nothing yet. Also, some sort of 4th amendment claim was to be filed -if you believe DJT.
