David Laufman, the former chief of the Department of Justice's counterintelligence division who investigated Hillary Clinton's handling of classified documents, discusses the FBI's search warrant for former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida. #CNN #News
‘Stunning’: Ex-official who investigated Clinton reacts to documents found in Trump’s home
amazing to me how indifferent Republicans were to Jan 6, and how indignant they are about a lawful search warrant on a private citizen
@WE THE PEOPLE 🙌 you know something the rest of us don’t?
@WE THE PEOPLE 🙌 Sure they carried several boxes of materials in and no one saw it. Quite a trick. I mean you have to carey them in to plant them. I assume you shift is almost over at the misinformation center.
Yep they do a 360% 🏃♂️really quick!!🤪😂😂
I don’t think he was careless in taking these documents,I believe he and others around him knew EXACTLY what they were doing.
@Kevin Johnson absolutely
@Nanoya Barrett I’m agnostic on all that until we have more information. Also, I realize we need to remind ourselves that the DOJ may decide to refrain from prosecuting Trump at all.
I don’t like that option. It’s tantamount to saying that ex-Presidents are above the law.
We’re fortunate that investigations in Georgia & elsewhere continue to progress.
@Michael G. If he defected, it would be widely celebrated across this country. Let the Russians deal with him. It’s not like he pays taxes.
It’s encouraging to see that behind the scenes there are fair and honest people who despite their differences agree that we must keep our government from falling to the fascists.
@lyn Ryall yup. I’ll be there crying in there beers,,,,
@Silver Man Well,,,those days are almost over,,,,, tick tick tick tick,,, trust me. It’s coming,,,,
@Silver Man Agreed. We need to get the unlimited corporate cash out of politics or we’ll all be corporate slaves soon.
@DAMON MARCUS On the contrary, they are finally restoring and upholding the law after 4 long years of a crime boss in the WH.
@Jason M Really? LOL
” if it was some other president i would be shocked ” LOL
😆
Fox News timeline on the raid:
6am: It’s a hoax
7am: Trump declassified the docs
8am: The FBI planted the docs
9am: But but but…Hillary!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Did I miss any other conspiracy theories?
@TheBig10Champs42ThirdPlaceohio27 nope. Nail on the head.
As usual, the former guy is playing dumb, AND, playing the innocent victim…but, it might not work this time !?

@Allison Agreed!!
It is shocking that this is happening in this country !! We need to step up and vote in every election that we have available to us, local, state and federal !! We need to vote out the republicans out of our government because they are not doing our work, they are doing trump’s work and that is going to be the down fall of this country !! trump and the republicans want this country under their control with no opinion or input from anyone else !! WE need to vote and vote them out !!
and which party invites illegals, defunds Police, escalates crime, violates 4th amendment, violates 1st Amendment, has held j6 political prisoners without due process, just added 80000 armed IRS agents?
This man’s been treasonous since day one
Yeah literally like the day he came out of the womb
@Sarah Jones yep they’re your scapegoat and not a very good one.
@Sarah Jones yip I can, but can you?…they aren’t criminals
yes absolutely
This could have been done a year ago if it weren’t for the con’s status as an ex president.
@Rory Chivers have you seen the list of what was taken? Pretty sure they did their job correctly.
@Jason M Siting over here, just watching the whole dumpster fire smoulder away on the other side of the pond, it is very easy to end up asking yourself the question “is making a photocopy of the nuclear codes to take home enough of a no-no to actually formally indict the man”
@Rory Chivers there was 11 sets of highly classified documents recoverd so now you are just minimizing the seriousness of the situation.
I served in the US Air Force and was a security manager. Having information like this at home gets you years in locked away in a hole. They would have done it to me. No one should be above the law.
Same!! But Navy Reserves here!! There is no way I would have gotten away with taking so much as one handwritten post it note anywhere outside the area in which I was working with it, on it, et al.
@roger fontenot No, he can’t. And, for those a president can declassify, there is a process to follow to do so legally. If this process is not followed, the documents are not declassified and possession msy be illegal. The Law and Order Party with no respect for the law.
@My Man And intelligence isn’t a thing you are familiar with. 🤔🤫
I now see how Jr, Eric, and Jared has also benefited by using the Documents for money, leverage and other monetary means. Just a shame and disgusting bunch of grifters.
@grandma k. yes

God forgive me but I agree that you have people using such documents for money-making and destruction of their enemies
It’s amazing too find so many spineless men, with wives and children kowtow to a guy that has trouble using “yesterday” in a four word sentence. Lord help us all!!!!
@Sidney Smart At what?
I have to assume you’re talking about China Joe????🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
If you’ve got to ask for what, I couldn’t explain it to you if I tried.
@T.I.M.C.H Ahhh . . . that’s so cute. Let’s see know, appears such a sharp-witted individual, like yourself, would then be leading our country – right? 🙂
“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself”.-Marcus Tullius Cicero
Thank you..your opinion means so much to me…

What legitimate reason in his mind could he have had for keeping all those documents?
I can’t think of a single reason.
All I can think is that he thought he could financially benefit from them.
@See Me Literally boxes and boxes and boxes of documents. This was not approached lightly, nor would they do anything to jeopardize such a serious investigation. Have you even read the warrant?
@claudermiller I heard the same thing. I love this.
Financial benefit is all he ever thinks about.
@E S I imagine you are correct on all but the “give to Russia”. He doesn’t GIVE anything away.
You sell the to allies or enemies who want that information. Apparently this is a thing, because these things which have ideological or political value, they also have black market value.
I love how she says “ we do not need to know what these exactly are” just because the government has classified info doesn’t mean they are trying to hurt us just means they are trying to protect us so that information doesn’t go into wrong hands
@Barbara Woodward ok, if you say so…
@Ryan Fraser bless you back if you think DingDon the Con cares one jot about you let alone wants to protect you. But do send him money! 🤡 LOLOL
@George Eliot I don’t send anyone any money or have any preconceptions anyone other than me could or would want to protect me, it’s called real world.
If he has trouble with “yesterday” he’ll have even more trouble with “incarceration”.
🤣👍
🤣
Donny is going to have trouble with a bunch of tomorrows in jail!

“Aggravating circumstances” ought to include the fact that trump has been informed for over a year that he has no legal right to have those documents and has defied at least two previous efforts to retrieve them.
@Joey Bleu no. He most certainly isn’t,,,, you ol trumper,,,,,
@Michael Marrone Yup. Pretty much,,, and it’s clearly time for him to go,,,,, NOW,,,,, straight to prison,,,,,,
@Joey Bleu he thinks he is but he is not.
“We were not a White House that followed the rules. And I will tell you that handling classified information was not something that was really pressed upon us on a daily basis or weekly or monthly.” -Stephanie Grisham
She then went on to say that she and many others personally witnessed Trump’s mishandling of hundreds of classified documents, dozens of times while in his administration, and that they are all happy to testify to that under oath, anytime.
@GotohellQultist we did with the former guy, every other word was a new word, because he cant read, then he would get frustrated and resorted to talking about himself, like a toddler would.
@NiNi J exactly. And the way he recycled words is a tell tell sign of functionality illiterate, but we knew that because of the descriptions of his briefings.
Maybe we should be like other countries and implement a civics test. It would probably help.
@Break My Legs! no, he doesn’t. That’s why he keeps making those ridiculous posts.
@Jon Suyama Exactly. I wonder why they’re not testifying….🤔 (Probably because Cassidy really was told that story because it really happened.)
@K S I couldn’t possibly agree more! 👍
“What the government is looking for is the presence of aggravating factors.”
– Volume: tons (26+ boxes so far)
– Level of classification: highest (all the way up to SCI)
– Types of places: unsecured basement on a property where anyone including foreign spies can buy a membership to for 200k$/year or can be a guest of someone who has said membership
– Purpose: likely selling to foreign powers or exchange for favors. Merely bragging about these classified ‘souvenirs’ may be enough to attract foreign membership
– he told investigators they handed everything over back in February’s 15 boxes yet 11 more boxes got dragged out this week, smells like perjury / lying to investigators there
How much more aggravation can you possibly ask for?
During the first minute of this interview I developed some serious respect for this man’s ability to describe trump.
@John Doe Us sane people have to stick together.
@Tammy Mullins it’s great people like Glenn Kirschner that are doing everything they can to fight ignorance and save our country!
