President Biden’s Department of Justice isn’t holding back. They’re trying to take down the former president.
And Donald Trump turned white as a ghost after what the FBI tried to do to him.
In August of 2022, the FBI raided former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate to search for classified documents.
According to Trump’s lawyers’ court filings that came out on Tuesday, the Department of Justice (DOJ) at the time granted “the use of deadly force” for FBI agents to use when they descended upon Mar-a-Lago.
The filings also detail how law enforcement was told to come to the scene with “ammo,” “handcuffs” and “medium and large sized bolt cutters.”
FBI agents were attempting to obtain “classified information, [National Defense Information], and US Government records” as evidence for the former president’s mishandling of classified documents case in Florida.
The FBI did defend their actions, saying in a statement that, “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.”
Trump’s lawyers, Todd Blanche and Christopher Kise, said that the hours-long “unconstitutional” raid included heavy searching of former first lady Melania Trump’s bedroom and Donald Trump’s son Barron Trump’s bedroom.
The former president claims that he didn’t do anything illegal, but the U.S. government objects to that claim.
George Toscas, the deputy assistant attorney general, said prior to the search of Mar-a-Lago that he “frankly [didn’t] give a d*mn about the optics” of agents searching the Trump residence for classified documents.
Attorney General Merrick Garland also agreed with the raid and said he “personally approved the decision to seek a search warrant.”
Thankfully no sort of deadly force was used during the search of Mar-a-Lago.
But with Secret Service agents guarding the home, violence could have easily erupted when the FBI stormed in with their warrant.
It could have led to a wild shootout that would’ve left people injured or worse, k*lled.
Donald Trump reacted to the news in a post on his Truth Social account, saying, “WOW! I just came out of the Biden Witch Hunt Trial in Manhattan, the “Icebox,” and was shown Reports that Crooked Joe Biden’s DOJ, in their Illegal and UnConstitutional Raid of Mar-a-Lago, AUTHORIZED THE FBI TO USE DEADLY (LETHAL) FORCE.”
“NOW WE KNOW, FOR SURE, THAT JOE BIDEN IS A SERIOUS THREAT TO DEMOCRACY. HE IS MENTALLY UNFIT TO HOLD OFFICE – 25TH AMENDMENT!”

If Trump had his DOJ authorize the use of deadly force against a political opponent, then Leftists would lose their minds.
But since Joe Biden was using it against Trump, Democrats simply look the other way.
Stay tuned to the DC Daily Journal.
