You have to laugh at the indignation of all the wingers about student debt. When Trump gave $50 b to bail farmers out of his trade war fiasco there was not one amongst them criticising him. $50 b not congressional approval just handed out with the promise of vote for me.
[QUOTE=Elvis2008;2736211]If that was the issue, a simple copy machine would have been the solution.
That goes against what Trump said. He complied with the subpoena, and the proper course for not complying with a subpoena is to enforce it in court not get an illegal warrant and do a raid.
That is just not true. Why did they put a lock on the storage shed if all the documents were gone? You are making stuff up.
LOL. It is not the paper that matters. It is the content on the paper. If it was a matter of possession, a copy machine would have sufficed. Your defense is bullshit. The FBI did not want Trump to have those documents.[/QUOTE]Here it is in black and white. [URL]https://www.archives.gov/presidential-libraries/laws/1978-act.html[/URL] and further [URL]https://www.archives.gov/files/guidance-on-presidential-records-from-the-national-archives-and-records-administration-2020.pdf[/URL].
It is [B]absolutely not[/B] the paper that matters. Here is what the NARA considers "Presidential Records": "documentary materials, or any reasonably segregable portion thereof, created or received by the.
President, the President's immediate staff, or a unit or individual of the Executive Office of the.
President whose function is to advise and assist the President, in the course of conducting activities.
Which relate to or have an effect upon the carrying out of the constitutional, statutory, or other.
Official or ceremonial duties of the President. " {44 USA see. § 2201 (2)}. And "documentary materials or any reasonably segregable portion thereof, of a purely private or nonpublic.
Character, which do not relate to or have an effect upon the carrying out of the constitutional, statutory.
Or other official or ceremonial duties of the President" and which include "diaries, journals, or other.
Personal notes serving as the functional equivalent of a diary or journal which are not prepared or utilized.
For, or circulated or communicated in the course of, transacting Government business," "private political.
Associations" and "materials relating exclusively to the President's own election to the office of the.
Presidency" {44 USA see. § 2201 (3)}.
So, except for Donnie writing down an order for hamberders and giving it to an aide to fetch (which is considered personal), if a document (in any media form whatsoever) in any way had to do with Government business, that document [B]must be[/B] turned over to NARA. That means Kim Jong Il's "love letters" too.
Donnie the Dumbass' 4th Amendment argument (and your defense of it) is utter BS. As is your search warrant argument.

As Germany learned, green energy means no energy. Germany trying to use solar power may have been the dumbest exercise ever. Solar and wind make no sense because of a lack of storage capacity. Natural gas is like 300 X cleaner than coal which Germany was using for power. Germany had to switch to Russian gas after shutting down coal plants because their solar experiment was not working. With the Russians cutting off gas this winter, Europe is faced with the ultimate irony, people freezing their asses off this winter in the name of protecting the planet from global warming. And this too is something global warming nuts never mention, way more people die of cold related injuries every year than heat.
Rationally speaking, a move away from polluting coal was smart, but coal is not singled out. All fossil fuels, including super clean natural gas, are treated the same.
There is a rational way to deal with these things, and there is the dumb Dem virtue signaling way. Global warming is real, the vaccine is great, and those of you skeptical of those things want to destroy the planet and have people die of Covid. Jeez, give it a rest Karen.

Here's a timeline of the events.
January 2022.
The National Archives had asked Trump for some of the materials it believed had been taken from the White House and stored at Mar-a-Lago in Florida after Trump left office.
Trump turned over 15 boxes of materials taken from the White House after negotiating with officials at the National Archives in 2021.
According to officials, the boxes included personal letters and gifts Trump had received, including a congratulatory letter from former President Barack Obama.
"These records should have been transferred to NARA from the White House at the end of the Trump administration in January 2021," the National Archives said in a statement.
February 2022.
After going through the documents, the National Archives discovered what appeared to be classified information. They called on the Justice Department for guidance, according to the Times.
The agency confirmed on Feb. 18 that they found "classified national security information" among the boxes of the material turned over by Trump.
The finding raised concern among lawmakers, who started investigating through the House Committee on Oversight and Reform.
In a letter on Feb. 24, Rep. Carolyn be. Maloney, the chairwoman of the House Committee on Oversight and Reform, requested a detailed accounting from the National Archives of what was in the boxes.
April 2022.
In April, the Justice Department instructed the National Archives not to share any details about the classified materials found at Mar-a-Lago with the House Oversight Committee.
May 2022.
In early May, the Justice Department issued a subpoena to the National Archives to obtain the classified documents found within the boxes.
Spring 2022.
According to CNN, Trump aides including executive assistant Molly Michael, operations coordinator Beau Harrison, former White House staff secretary Derek Lyons, and former White House valet Walt Nauta, were interviewed by federal officials about the removal of documents to Mar-a-Lago or about their storage once brought to the resort.
June 3, 2022.
DOJ and FBI officials present a grand jury subpoena at Mar-a-Lago and are shown a storage room where boxes containing White House documents and other materials are kept.
According to The Wall Street Journal, Trump attorneys hand over documents marked as "top secret. ".
Trump attorneys also sign letter that Trump had no more classified documents at Mar-a-Lago.
June 8, 2022.
Justice Department counterintelligence chief Jay Bratt reportedly sends a request that a stronger lock be put on the storage room door and that the boxes "be preserved in that room in their current condition until further notice. "
He signs off in the letter with, "Thank you. Very truly yours, Jay Bratt, chief of counterintelligence and export control section. "
June 22,2022.
Trump receives a subpoena for surveillance footage from Mar-a-Lago, according to the Journal.
Aug. 5, 2022.
Reinhart issues a sealed search warrant for the former president's home.
Aug. 8, 2022.
FBI agents executed the search warrant at Mar-a-Lago, going through Trump's home for more than nine hours. According to reports, the agents concentrated on a bedroom, a safe, and at one point the former first lady Melania Trump's closet. The remaining boxes are removed from the storage room.
Aug. 11,2022.
Attorney General Merrick Garland holds a news conference to say that he personally approved the search of the former president's residence.
"The department does not take such a decision lightly," he said, adding, that "it is standard practice to seek less intrusive means as an alternative to a search, and to narrowly scope any search that is undertaken.

Gee, if what I said contradicts Donnie the Dumbass, could it be that Donnie lied? Again? Maybe a better question would be "when has he ever told the truth"?
Since I previously destroyed your so-called 4th Amendment argument, I won't bother to rehash it.
You really still don't "get it". Donnie the Dumbass was never supposed to have those documents in the first place. Unless that material was innocuous and obviously personal, like a order for hamberders or a note saying the he'd like Ivanka to sit on his face, anything having to do with government should have already been turned over to NARA. Those are the rules and I have previously explained them to you and cited sources. You may not believe the sources but them's the facts!

[QUOTE=PVMonger;2736393]So, except for Donnie writing down an order for hamberders and giving it to an aide to fetch (which is considered personal), if a document (in any media form whatsoever) in any way had to do with Government business, that document must be turned over to NARA.[/QUOTE]Actually, the way the warrant was written it would have covered Trump giving a written order for hamburgers, so you just stepped on your dick there.
More than that, this is an issue that should be settled in a court room not with machine guns. Can you come up with any reason NARA and the FBI needed the originals versus copies or Trump could not have kept copies of the declassified material outside of the Feds not wanting Trump to have those records? That is the issue.
Since all you dumb Dems have short term amnesia, let me remind you it was not Putin who cost Clinton the election in 2016 but FBI Chief James Comey. That moron decided not to prosecute Clinton and it was not his job to do so. What should have happened then was a group of prosecutors should have been selected in the most neutral way possible to decide if Clinton should have been charged. Instead this dumb shit Comey said, "No, gee, duh, I will do it. " and let Clinton off the hook. We know from the texts from Strzok and Page there was no way Comey was going to prosecute Clinton. In fact, Comey said while letting Clinton go that she broke the law and warned others not to.
So Comey looks like a partisan dope and to remedy the situation decides Clinton is going to win and says he is reopening his investigation into Clinton. Or maybe this is to get dirt on Clinton if she wins. Whatever the case, Trump wins, and the entire FBI leadership is shocked and then focuses their guns on Trump.
And now we know thanks to Mark Zuckerberg the Feds fucked around once again in an election process in 2020 by suppressing the Hunter Biden laptop story at least on Facebook (and probably other social media companies) pushing the bullshit Russian disinformation line.
At the time, I was glad the FBI opened up its case against Clinton before the election, but in hindsight, it was clear to me that their doing so was bullshit, and I want the FBI a million miles away from deciding who is president but not you. Nah, you want the Dems to win and all the FBI has to do is posture that they are pro-Dem, and you are perfectly happy ceding the power of voting to them. You want a one party Democrat dictatorship.

Until his run for president, he was universally recognized as a great American success story.

Viruses mutate. Sort of like what happened to you when you mutated from a (probably) sentient human being into a dense, unthinking individual who swallows FUX Snooze and tRUMP BS hook-line-and-sinker.
The SARS-CoV-2 virus is different from the flu virus in that it can't mutate as fast as the flu does and it mutates differently as well. Read the following (if the words aren't too bigly for you) to find out why. But the upshot is that SARS-CoV-2 mutates about once every 11 days. Sometimes the mutation is beneficial to the virus and sometimes it isn't. [URL]https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/article/the-coronavirus-is-mutating-but-what-determines-how-quickly[/URL].
But somehow you feel that the current vaccine (which was developed for the variant that existed in March 2020) being less effective today is somehow the vaccine's fault. If the vaccine is as ineffective as you claim, why not blame the guy who was large and in charge in March, 2020. The great (according to you), infallible (according to you) one-term, twice-impeached former guy. Yep, the Mango Mussolini is the one to blame for whatever perceived ineffectiveness the vaccine has for you.
Vaccines do one thing and one thing only. They prime one's immune system to recognize an invader and the body reacts to repel that invader. That's all a vaccine does. No more, no less. Every freaking virus on the planet mutates differently and at a different rate, yet you somehow believe that COVID vaccine is the only one that is ineffective. Gee, let's see. I saw an ad for Shingrix the other day on the tube. It detailed what it did (priming one's immune system) and how effective it was (at best 90% The flu vaccine isn't all that effective either since the flu mutates differently and rapidly and flu vaccine manufacturers need to guess which strain of the virus will pop up this year in enough time to get the vaccine manufactured in quantity.
