Today’s news reports (August 23, 2022)

Trump posted re: Latest Report Shows Biden White House Behind FBI Raid: [Emphasis added]

The [Biden] White House stated strongly that they were NOT INVOLVED, and knew absolutely nothing about, the political Witch Hunt going on with me, & that they didn’t know anything at all about the Break-In of Mar-a-Lago. This was strongly reiterated again & again. WRONG! Remember, these are the people who spied on my campaign, denied it, & got caught. Through the great reporting of John Solomon (Fake Pulitzer Prize?), documents reveal they knew everything, in fact led the charge – a political NO, NO!

Trump is probably referring to yesterday’s report from JustTheNews John Solomon:

Trump on report from Kevin Corke:

“Legal Scholars are now questioning the role of the Biden White House in the Raid, and in the collection of materials that the former President should have been able to claim executive privilege over. People are incredibly upset, in fact outraged in many quarters, about this Raid at the home of the former President of the United States.” Kevin Corke, Fox & Friends

Trump cited several legal scholars re: FBI Raid: [Emphasis added]

Alan Dershowitz: “One thing that is clearly wrong is that the Biden White House shouldn’t be able to wave the executive privilege of President Trump. That would mean that no President could speak to anyone in complete confidence.” So true!

Trump re: Jonathan Turley’s comment:

“The record of the FBI in misleading courts in past Trump investigations is very much on the mind of many Americans.” Jonathan Turley, Constitutional Law Expert

Trump re: Mark Levin’s analysis:

[Mark] Levin calls the FBI’s raid on Trump’s home is the ‘greatest interference in our political system’ — The Fox News host called out ‘all of these fakes’ in the Justice Department”

Trump re: WSJ article. He later provided link to WSJ article:

Incredible (and irrefutably correct!) OPINION in today’s Wall Street Journal by highly respected constitutional scholars David B. Rivkin Jr. and Lee A. Casey, entitled, “The Trump Warrant Had No Legal Basis: A former’s president’s rights under the Presidential Records Act trump the statutes the FBI cited.” In other words, this assault on my home should NEVER have happened. A political weaponization of law Enforcement. What will I now do to get my reputation back?
