The #DOJ policy statement on when officers can use #LethalForce —misrepresented by Trump & his supporters as proof of an assassination plot at #MarALago —was also in the paperwork for the consensual search the #FBI conducted of #POTUS Biden’s Wilmington home, looking for #ClassifiedDocuments.
Wow, Jim. If only there was something you could have done to stop #Trump while you were the head of the #FBI... Like keeping your fucking mouth shut, and not sabotaging #HillaryClinton's campaign in the days before the #2016election! Why don't you take some time to think about how different the world would have been had you just followed your own policies, and stayed in your own goddamned lane.
A Tues evening fundraising email from #Trump’s campaign &signed in his name arrived w/the subj, "They were authorized to shoot me!" & said of the #Biden admin, "You know they’re just itching to do the unthinkable ... Joe Biden was locked & loaded ready to take me out & put my family in danger."
Trump also wrote on TruthSocial:
"Joe Biden's DOJ, in their Illegal & UnConstitutional Raid of Mar-a-Lago, AUTHORIZED THE FBI TO USE DEADLY (LETHAL) FORCE."
4 months after the #FBI raided #MarALago, Trump’s attys discovered 4 docs marked #classified in his personal bedroom.
That revelation was among several cited by US District Judge Beryl Howell in a newly unsealed 2023 opinion that found prosecutors had presented compelling #evidence that #Trump#knowingly stashed #NationalSecurity docs in his home & then tried to conceal them when the #DOJ tried to retrieve them.
Throughout the opinion, Howell — who was chief judge of the Washington, DC federal district court at the time — described w/varying degrees of incredulity how 4 documents w/ classification markings could have been discovered in #Trump’s private quarters months after prosecutors had subpoenaed them & the #FBI conducted its own exhaustive search of the property.
🚨🚨 🚨 "Trump’s DEMENTED PLAN has MAJOR RAMIFICATIONS"
"Trumps violent rhetoric is leading to THOUSANDS OF IMMEDIATE DEATH THREATS against judges and their families. Michael Popok explores pro-Trump MAGA websites and social media platforms where death threats are posted every minute of every day against law enforcement and judges just after Trump uses 'call to arms' violent rhetoric to attack his judges, just like what happened on Jan6."
