FBI Defends Authorized Use of Deadly Force at Mar-a-Lago Raid, Including: Triage Plans, 30 Armed Agents, and Map to a Trauma Center – Julie Kelly Shreds Their Lies to Pieces

This is absolutely a big deal. Don’t buy the bullshit otherwise.

It was not a standard op. The MAL raid was an unprecedented action with significant potential for confusion and blue on blue issues and conflict. It also involved competing equities between federal agencies (FBI &…

Steve Bannon: You refuted that pretty well. I want to go to that point. You had a number of people on our side of the football that said, oh, this is just standard operating procedure. It’s far from it. It’s radical. And you went through and put up a tweet that listed the reasons why is this not standard? You get that was standard operating procedure. If you go bang down the door of a cartel, right? Or child trafficker, not on some documents case. You listed it through pretty thoroughly. Give me your thoughts.

Julie Kelly: First of all, why do you need 30 armed FBI agents to get papers, files, records? And of course they changed the goal. They changed the goal post there, Steve. First of all, remember, it was classified markings. Then the search warrant said national defense information. So they changed what they initially said they were looking for between June, May and June of 2022, and then when the search warrant was executed.

Why do you have to have an armed raid for a former president and his lawyers who are fully cooperating? Who months before the raid allowed Jay Brat, the chief of counterintelligence for DOJ, and three FBI agents, Donald Trump, let them in voluntarily to Mar a Lago. Donald Trump delayed his plans to go to Bedminster for the summer so he could meet Jay Brat and three FBI agents at Mar-a-Lago and told them, look around, let me know what you need.

Why did they have to raid Mar-a-Lago two months later? Does the US Attorney General, is it standard operating procedure for the US Attorney General to sign off on a search warrant? Is that what Mayor Garland does all day long? No, he doesn’t. That’s why he had to come out and say that he was responsible.

There’s nothing normal about this case. Correct. Also, when was the last time that a top FBI official from headquarters was involved in a raid?

How about when the counterintelligence chief is involved in an FBI raid?

How about when you have the assistant us prosecutor in that district involved in the raid?

They’re not investigators, they’re prosecutors. So why do you have these big wigs at Mar-a-Lago if this is just standard operating procedure?
