Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Wednesday, May 22, 2024

The Washington Post is reporting that Donald Trump has sent a campaign fundraising email falsely claiming that President Biden was "locked & loaded ready to take me out" during a 2022 search of Mar-a-Lago. The Bulwark points out that Trump is likely trying to distract from the recently unsealed court documents suggesting that agents found more classified documents in Trump's Florida bedroom month's after the FBI search. "Notably, no excuse is provided as to how the former president could miss the classified-marked documents found in his own bedroom at Mar-a-Lago."

FBI didn't want to do the raid, Garland a politically appointed government official did.

Was the FBI "locked and loaded" : TRUE
Did they have authorization to use deadly force: TRUE

Ergo they were "locked & loaded ready to take trump out"

America is on the verge of authoritarianism.

This particular fake rightwing grievance makes one thing clear. If Trump happens to die before (or maybe even after) the November election, Republicans will claim that Democrats did it somehow, even though he is a morbidly obese 77 year old who proudly avoids exercise.

Judge Cannon, at this moment, is holding a hearing to have the documents case dismissed.

In a way, I hope she succeeds. But only so Jack Smith can come back and refile the case with a different Judge. I always did think the case should have been in D.C. anyway since that's the district where the original theft of the documents was committed.

There are several options you may not be aware of. It's the same option that Trumpers/former Republicans have when they complain about Biden, etc. living in their heads. Change your focus.

The other option is to follow your own advice in the second sentence.

And if Trump's accusations were to actually happen and "Sleepy Joe" pulled out a 45 caliber revolver and blew Trump's head off he'd be immune from prosecution in Trump's own legal theory so this could be an important test case of that theory. If the Supreme Court says Bifen should be proecuted then the theory goes right out the window and Trump would be finally gone so it would be a big win for the rule of law and prove Presidents are equal under the law

WASHINGTON (AP) " The Republican National Committee's Washington headquarters was briefly evacuated on Wednesday as police investigated two vials of blood that had been addressed to former President Donald Trump following the presumptive presidential nominee's takeover of the national party apparatus.

Hazardous-materials teams were called in after the vials were discovered, according to the U.S. Capitol Police, who said they would continue to investigate. It was unclear if anyone came into contact with the blood and to whom it belonged.

From a Fox WH Correspondent:

Jacqui Heinrich
@JacquiHeinrich

NEWS: FBI SEARCHES AT PRESIDENT BIDEN'S HOMES ALSO INCLUDED DEADLY FORCE POLICY (which is standard)

A person familiar with the Hur investigation confirms that the standard Department of Justice policy statement regarding the use of deadly force was also included in the operations order for the searches at President Biden's residences in Delaware.

CONTEXT: yesterday, former President Trump suggested that the Biden administration wanted to kill him during a search of his Mar-a-Lago estate. A fundraising email read, "Joe Biden was locked & loaded ready to take me out".

The FBI said standard protocol was followed, no additional steps were taken and there was no departure from the norm.
This news about the deadly force policy also being in place for the FBI searches at Biden's homes underscores that point.

Fact Check: Did FBI Plan Donald Trump's 'Assassination?'
www.newsweek.com

... MAGA Donald Trump supporters have rallied behind the former president after he released FBI paperwork, connected to its search of his Mar-a-Lago residence, showing agents were permitted to use "deadly force."

On Tuesday, Trump shared on his social media platform Truth Social the information revealed by an unsealed search warrant in his classified documents case which said that federal agents were prepared to use "deadly force" when executing the raid of his Florida resort.

After the news broke, former Trump strategist Steve Bannon and Trump ally Mike Davis discussed what they called an "assassination" plot by the bureau. ...

There is no evidence that the FBI search of the Mar-a-Lago was part of an "attempted assassination" on Trump.

The story comes from the release of a recent court filing connected to the search of Mar-a-Lago in August 2022. An unsealed search warrant in that case revealed that federal agents were prepared to use "deadly force" when executing the raid of his Florida resort.

An "operations order" of the 9 a.m. raid that was produced in discovery contained a "policy statement" regarding the "use of deadly force," which said in part: "Law enforcement officers of the Department of Justice may use deadly force when necessary."

A contingencies plan was also created in cohesion with the raid, showing that a paramedic should be at the scene in case someone is injured. The name of the nearest local trauma center, complete with an address and a phone number, was included on the same form.

However, the use of deadly force is standard FBI procedure as per the bureau's online resources that state "FBI special agents may use deadly force only when necessary"when the agent has a reasonable belief that the subject of such force poses an imminent danger of death or serious physical injury to the agent or another person.

"If feasible, a verbal warning to submit to the authority of the special agent is given prior to the use of deadly force."

An FBI spokesperson sent Newsweek a statement issued in response to claims about the search warrant that said: "The FBI followed standard protocol in this search as we do for all search warrants, which includes a standard policy statement limiting the use of deadly force.

"No one ordered additional steps to be taken and there was no departure from the norm in this matter." ...

Retired FBI Assistant Director Frank Figliuzzi wrote on X in response to the "deadly force" comments "Yep, every FBI operations order contains a reminder of FBI deadly force policy. Even for a search warrant. Deadly force is always authorized if the required threat presents itself."

As noted in a recent report by Axios, former FBI Assistant Director in Charge Steven D'Antuono told Congress last year that the Secret Service interacted with the FBI to make sure it could get into Mar-a-Lago "with no issues," saying "it wasn't even a show of force."

Newsweek has contacted a representative for Steve Bannon via email for comment. ...


False.

There was no "assassination attempt" on Donald Trump by the FBI. The use of "deadly force" as contained in now unsealed search warrant documents is boiler-plate procedural text used by the bureau. ...

I agree entirely with your post up until this line.

Most of it is media driven for clicks. Our little bubble here of politics obsessed miscreants is far more involved in this than your average person.

And you're far from the only person to point out that the media is a significant problem as far as Trump is concerned.

A warrant with that same wording was also issued against Pres Biden for the search of his properties when classified docs were discovered in his possession.
So... what's yer point?

"Do politicians routinely take other politicians out of context to misrepresent reality? TRUE"

FTFY.

This is even more insidious than your supposed supporters who don't know they're supporting him.

The willingly obtuse bothsiderism despite the extremity of Trump's behavior is the worst. It's the kind of apathy and stupidity that lead to 2016 to begin with.

My primary issue with lies of this nature is what happens when some Trump loving Magat with a failing school paper grade equivalent IQ who, I don't know, was trained by our military takes these lies seriously and as a call to action. It comes so close to an incitement to violence I am surprised the FBI and Secret Service don't put a clamp down on this type of talk. Maybe I'm just getting litigious in my middle years, but this is completely unacceptable speech bordering on prosecutable offense.

As an aside, maybe we should rename the Secret Service. Typing in SS especially in relation to this topic rings of 1939 ... .and not in a good way. Presidential Service? Covert Service? Presidential Intermediation Secret Service? Something.
