Donald Trump: FBI ‘Stole’ Passports in Mar-a-Lago Raid

Former President Donald Trump on Monday claimed that the FBI “stole” his “passports” in last week’s raid on his private residence at Mar-a-Lago, Florida.

“In the raid by the FBI of Mar-a-Lago, they stole my three Passports (one expired), along with everything else,” he said via Truth Social. “This is an assault on a political opponent at a level never seen before in our Country. Third World!”

The passports were not independently itemized on the FBI’s property receipt of the 28 inventory items federal agents seized.

The warrant, which Attorney General Merrick Garland says he approved and was signed by Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart, did not state that they could take Trump’s passport. Typically, the government needs a separate court order to seize someone’s passport, even temporarily.

Trump also stated that the FBI’s raid on his residence could cause Republicans to retake both the House and the Senate. Republicans are considered likely to reclaim the House, while analysis say the Senate is a tossup.

“Republicans could win many additional seats, both in the House & Senate, because of the strong backlash over the raid at Mat-a-Lago. Polls are showing that some lost Republican territory over the last number of weeks has been more than made up with the unannounced Break In by the FBI, which should never have happened!,” Trump said on his platform.

Trump also warned the political “temperature” has reached dangerous levels after the FBI raid. He also offered to help the Justice Department cool down the political heat within the nation.

President Donald Trump’s claim that his “passports” were seized in the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago last week could have major legal implications for any investigation into him: it could mean his Fourth Amendment rights were violated in the search.

As Breitbart News reported earlier Monday, former President Trump announced on Truth Social: “In the raid by the FBI of Mar-a-Lago, they stole my three Passports (one expired), along with everything else. This is an assault on a political opponent at a level never seen before in our Country. Third World!”

The unusual — and perhaps accidental — taking of Trump’s passports could mean that the Department of Justice (DOJ) would be unable to use at least some of the materials seized in the the raid in any prosecution of the former president. Already, it has risked violating his Sixth Amendment rights by seizing materials that may including privileged attorney-client communications, which are meant to be shielded from investigations.

The Fourth Amendment reads:

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

Typically, an individual’s passport would not be subject to seizure unless there were reason to believe he or she was a flight risk. An order authorizing the seizure of a passport would have to be approved by a court in most circumstances.

The search warrant under which FBI agents conducted the raid, with the approval of Attorney General Merrick Garland, does not list Trump’s passports as within the scope of the search; nor does it list the passports in the property register of seized items.

Perhaps the retrieval of Trump's passports are part of a bigger plan? Like Trump has properties outside the US and might be a flight risk if charged with us-based criminal offenses. Any of u dummies think of that?

... Doesn't matter. ... Still illegal for the FBI to take.

Uh... "dummies" would be a bad insult.

At least to some 'round here.

It would be illegal. You need a court order deeming someone a flight risk and authorizing the seizure of a passport. To use your terms, any dummy would know that.

Merrick Garland: “You should not question the integrity of the people at the FBI and DOJ.”

People at the FBI and DOJ: “I’m gonna leak some bullshit to the press.”



OOOPS

BREAKING: FBI admits it stole Trump's passports

Let’s recap:

The FBI did, in fact, take Trump’s passports like Trump said they did.

Media immediately tried to paint Trump as a liar.

End recap.

[Salty Again]

... "Lazy" Norah O'Donnell. ... And barely a retraction.
In true CBS style...

The LIE here was either by the FBI or the news media.
No bleedin' wonder the American people are outraged.

The lie was by both Salty. The corrupt FBI/ DOJ leaked the info to Norah O'Donnell as she is a friendly libtard mouthpiece. They got caught when Trump released the damning evidence showing they lied.

The fact is the FBI took the passport of a former president and kept it for a week. This is not ok by any stretch but FBI acts like this is standard operating procedure and the libtard media just licks the libtards balls and dutifully plays along

[berryberry]

The DOJ is panicking.

First, Garland claimed the warrant was narrow. That was a lie.

Then Garland claimed DOJ would only speak through court filings. That was a lie, as these leaks prove.

DOJ claimed the raid was URGENT! Also a lie, since Garland piddled around for weeks beforehand.

DOJ claimed they did not steal Trump's passports - that was a lie they were forced to admit when Trump embarrassed them by releasing the evidence proving they stole them

Actually, they piddled around for 18 months. It’s all bullshit. Biden has turned the doj into his personal hit squad. They’ve been trying to jail anyone in Trump’s orbit since the day they took power, putting out the public message of ‘Support Trump and you’ll be next’. It’s all very Hitlerian, jail (or kill) your political opponents and disarm a populous who might disagree.

Correct !!!

And while it was clear even before this that the FBI and DOJ were corrupt, now that it's been proven that the DOJ blatantly lied about Trump’s passport, how can we believe ANYTHING they say about this raid is true?

[berryberry]

For the libtards trying to downplay the FBI seizing Trump's passports - don't.

They knew those weren't covered by the warrant but took them anyway to harass and intimidate.

Meanwhile Hunter Biden is on video with illegal ****, an illegal gun, and russian hookers of questionable age paid for by Senile Biden yet the corrupt FBI/DOJ never even knocked on his door.

The 3 passports were identified by the filter team and were acknowledged to his counsel as having been mistakenly seized before Agent Orange ever posted about them being gone.

And his lawyers were told hours later where and when they could be picked up.

But keep the misplaced angst alive since it's what you thrive on
