CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY AUGUST 11, 2022
REACTION TO THE FBI RAID ON DONALD TRUMP’S FLORIDA HOME HAS BEEN FIERCE. REPUBLICANS HAVE MOSTLY UNITED BEHIND THE FORMER PRESIDENT, INCLUDING POTENTIAL RIVALS FOR THE 2024 PRESIDENTIAL NOMINATION. THESE INCLUDE FLORIDA GOVERNOR RON DESANTIS AND FLORIDA SENATOR MARCO RUBIO.
THE IMAGE OF HEAVLY ARMED FBI AGENTS STANDING OUTSIDE TRUMP’S HOUSE WITH NOBODY HOME EXCEPT A FEW HOUSEHOLD EMPLOYEES SHOULD FRIGHTEN ALL OF US.
MATTERS OF PRESIDENTIAL PAPERS ARE USUALLY NEGOTIATED, AS TRUMP HAD BEEN DOING. THE FEDERAL JUDGE WHO AUTHORIZED THE RAID WAS A BIG DONOR TO BARACK OBAMA, ACCORDING TO FOX NEWS, THOUGH HE HAD BEEN APPOINTED BY PRESIDENT TRUMP.
JUDGE BRUCE REINHART, WHILE IN PRIVATE PRACTICE, REPRESENTED JEFFREY EPSTEIN AND SOME OF HIS ASSOCIATES, INCLUDING ONE OF EPSTEIN’S ALLEGED SEX SLAVES.
ATTORNEY GENERAL MERRICK GARLAND CLAIMS “NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW”? REALLY. HUNTER BIDEN IS (SO FAR). HILLARY CLINTON KEPT CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS IN HER HOME AND SENT SOME TO AN AIDE. HER HOUSE WASN’T RAIDED. LAWBREAKERS STREAM ACROSS OUR SOUTHERN BORDER.
THIS RAID DOESN’T PASS THE “SMELL TEST.” I’M CAL THOMAS.
