DeSantis Slams 'Weaponized Federal Agencies' For Raid On Trump's Mar-A-Lago

Update (2053ET): Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) came out with a blistering response to the Monday FBI raid on former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence, reportedly in connection with materials Trump brought with him after leaving office.
"The raid of MAL is another escalation in the weaponization of federal agencies against the Regime’s political opponents, while people like Hunter Biden get treated with kid gloves," said DeSantis. "Now the Regime is getting another 87k IRS agents to wield against its adversaries? Banana Republic."
Trump supporters have begun gathering outside Mar-a-Lago.

Moments ago, Donald Trump - who is still banned by Twitter - published a statement on Truth Social in which he said that his Florida home, Mar A Lago is “currently under siege, raided, and occupied by a large group of FBI agents", an assault which according to Trump "could only take place in broken, Third-World Countries." He is probably right. He also claims the Fed's presence was unannounced and the reason was politically motivated.
His full statement posted on his Truth Social account is below:
Local reporters confirmed the raid, saying the FBI executed a search warrant at Mar-a-Lago. "They just left," although it isn't clear what the search was about.
Social media was predictably full of kneejerk reactions.
According to the New York Times:
As Techno Fog notes, the politics of the search can’t be ignored. If the New York Times is to be believed, Trump’s purported crime - the delay of returning materials - could have been resolved in another manner not involving raiding his home and breaking open a personal safe. No doubt the search is an escalation by a desperate Regime confronted by their own failures at home and abroad.
This doesn’t necessarily mean there wasn’t another reason for the search. Could it have to do with the DOJ's ongoing January 6 probe (although, given the politicization of Biden’s DOJ, that is no guarantee)? Maybe not, but it might be too soon to tell. Last week there was reporting that a federal grand jury investigating January 6 had issued subpoenas to the Trump White House Counsel, Pat Cipollone, and his top deputy, Patrick Philbin.
According to the author, it is possible that the roadmap for the DOJ comes from the January 6 Committee, "which has poured out the thin gruel of purported criminal charges against Trump, alleging he and others, including attorney John Eastman, could be charged with":
Meanwhile, we are still waiting for an official comment:

The socialists, communists, and globalists have infiltrated all levels of state and federal government.
They have labeled anyone who disagrees with their goal of destroying America and the institution of a global police state a terrorist.
They are spying on our communications and using undercover agents and paid informants to set up good American citizens.
Keep your thoughts, suggestions, and plans private. VET your friends and contacts. Prepare for what's coming.

No one at ruby ridge or the murders by the atf and fbi at the Branch Davidian compound were ever punished.
The real criminals were promoted and retired with full pensions and their lives.
There are still many in jail for misdemeanors related to simple trespassing at the capitol.
Many millions have had the full force of the godless government fall upon them because of some bureaucrats abuse of power and nothing happens to the abuser
Judges are caught giving fisa warrants without ever checking the fbi or doj ‘evidence’. After proven they outright lied to get the warrants, the fisa judges never uttered a pep. Even when hundreds of additional cases of this type of abuse were found.
Nope, the real ptb in government are 100% sure their prey - we the citizens, won’t do a dam thing
Hope the get the biggest surprises in their life but so far they’ve been right for 20 plus years

Time will tell, but it seems like a pretty big veil got lifted here.

I've figured since Nov. 6th 2020 that Trump will either have to flee into foreign exile (in a place like Hungary) or would end up like Czar Nicholas II of the Romanovs.

what we are now seeing - and unfortunately we're seeing it with more and more clarity on a DAILY BASIS - is THE REASON the election of 2020 HAD TO BE stolen. and I mean everything from profound governmental overreach during the SCAMdemic to the the purposeful destruction of the economy, to the way we left Afghanistan to the proxy war in Ukraine to the energy and fuel shortages, destruction of the supply chain, this runaway inflation and soon a FAMINE of biblical proportions .

Kinda reminds me of what some of the german nazi judges did, when questioned about their unjust judgments during hitlers reign, in the nuremburg trials.
One of them thought to overlook some of the injustice he was dishing out, for the good of germany.

You have a very good point. Why would they go this far. There is more than we know. Washington is filled with vile people who enjoy ruining peoples lives.

"Back in the old days." - indeed.
They purportedly ignored Prima Facie evidence of Felony crimes such as graft, bribery, selling influence as well as - reportedly - potential crimes against children - to protect a Candidate to high office. Some would even say they worked to quash it.
They made up out of the whole cloth the "Russia Collusion".
They spun a request to support legal law investigation and enforcement of bribery and Graft from another Country into an Impeachment.
They lied to the FISA Court, multiple times.
The Administration accused the Supreme Court of being 'Unconstitutional'.
But yeah, we aren't a third-whirled banana 'republic'.
You betcha.
Remember, remember in November, to VOTE HARDER, y'all.
Maybe it'll work this time. Better than last time. Maybe.
To reiterate, Normalcy Bias can be a complete, utter bitch to shake.

Who but HILLARY, was SUPER GUILTY of this very crime in extremus and was not punished!If Trump is convicted of violating the presidential records statute, he will be disqualified from holding future office. If that's the endgame, the FBI's reported mishandling of the evidence they collected will be pivotal.

Listen folks. Our system works. The founding fathers were geniuses. Each branch of government was meant to be a check and balance on the other branches. They may find some flunky judge to approve the warrant for the raid on Trumps house, but the appeals courts or supreme court will see through the bull and put the Kaibash on all this (and Trump appointed a bunch of them).
We're barely into the opening act of this part of the operatic cycle.....That being said "holding onto your hats" and not running around "half cocked" is probably the best advice to heed....

level headed point of view.
I’m so upset, that’s about as much as I can say right now.
No, but they own the coastal areas east and west, and they'd invite China to our western flanks, and Russia to our right flanks.

I suspect that we are rapidly approaching The Great Purge.
Once we turn on ourselves, the foreign vultures will clean it up.
Sounds like they were being stupid on purpose. Now they can say they saw something but can't do anything about it. Yeah. Right. Like the dingbat that said someone told her for definite that Trump fought the guy who was driving he sedan or whatever on Jan 6.
It is all going to be hearsay, none of it valid or provable.

we keep waiting and the "cost of materials" keeps on rising. if the opposite of "premature ejaculation" is "erectile dysfunction" . . . where do you think we are on that scale?

After the initial shock and audacity I began to wonder why they would do something so foolhardy to anger an entire half of the country and the first thing that popped into my mind was that this time they WILL come up with something!!!

this excellent post is deserving of a most important quote in response:
“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family?"
― Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn , The Gulag Archipelago 1918–1956
