The Establishment Striking Back?

Crunch time may be approaching for Republicans—approaching fast. The Zhou Regime is talking about having deep Deep Stater Avril Haines do a “classification review” of Trump’s property that was seized in the MAL Raid. This is absurd on its face—they’re still trying to gaslight the American people into believing that the POTUS is no better than a clerk for the Deep State, rather than the Original Authority for all classification and declassification.

My take on this move is that it’s an attempt to do an end run on the judge in Florida, and it shows how terrified the Deep State—and the Establishment generally—is of having this case taken over by the courts. They know the judges won’t be fooled—not when they’ve read the briefs. I’ve already seen some statements by lefty legal types like David Laufman (yes, the same guy who resigned from DoJ in disgrace over the Carter Page FISA scandal) suggesting that the courts need to butt out. Interesting, isn’t it? The Deep State was eager to use the courts to put up an appearance of legality with their absurd “search warrant,” but now you can tell they’re scared stiff of a real court challenge.

You have to wonder, are we getting close to a coup here? Which Republicans will step up?

Here’s analysis of what’s going on, via former Gorsuch law clerk Mike Davis (I picked this up from Red State):

@mrddmia

1. President Trump lawfully declassified the documents and took a personal copy.

2. Former presidents have federal staff, security clearances, secure offices, and Secret Service protection.

3. Where’s the (political) “damage assessment” for Hillary’s hacked illegal home server?

Jim Acosta @Acosta

Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines sent a letter to House Intel and House Oversight chairs saying intel community is conducting damage assessment of Mar-a-Lago documents, according to letter obtained by CNN.

4. Where’s the “damage assessment” after clear evidence indicating President Biden, his son Hunter, and his brother James were on Chinese and Ukrainian payrolls?

5. This is clearly a political cleanup job, because Trump took his declassified, personal Crossfire Hurricane docs.

Big🧵Destroying Biden Regime’s Evolving Excuses for Unprecedented, Unnecessary, and Unlawful (Political) Home Raid of President Trump:

🇺🇸 Mike Davis 🇺🇸 @mrddmia

Before Attorney General Merrick Garland's spin: The President of the United States has both the constitutional (and statutory) power to declassify anything he wants. If President Trump left the White House with classified records, they are declassified by his actions. Period.

6. If these (declassified, personal) records were so dangerous in President Trump’s possession, why did:

- President Biden wait 18 months to retrieve them?

- AG Merrick Garland deliberate “for weeks” before obtaining (illegal) warrant?

- He wait 3 days to execute warrant?

P.S.

🇺🇸 Mike Davis 🇺🇸 @mrddmia

President Biden: "I have never discussed with my son or my brother or anyone else anything having to do with their businesses." Fact Check: False. Here's smoking-gun evidence of the Biden family foreign corruption. Where's the (political) DNI's (political) "damage assessment"?

Still wondering if Joe Biden was involved in Hunter’s corrupt foreign business dealings? Watch this. https://t.co/bKdQCwy1VZ
