Biden behind raid on Mar-a-Lago?

 Monica Showalter:

...

...On Trump, Biden's as obsessed with Trump as Stalin was with Trotsky.

So it comes to light that not only has Biden tried to smear Trump as a danger to democracy and "threat to the republic," in a sorry public relations campaign that isn't working, he's also trying to eliminate President Trump from the entire 2024 presidential race by probably the gamiest maneuvers ever played by a politician in U.S. history. 

It turns out that Biden was behind the raid on Trump's home in Mar-a-Lago on August 4.

According to the Conservative Treehouse, boldface added:

Page #2 and Page #3 of Judge Aileen Cannon’s ruling cites a quote from the DOJ own legal filing, dated May 10th, that Joe Biden ordered the National Archives and Records Administration to provide access to the FBI to review the Trump records.  Note the quotation marks:

On May 10, 2022, NARA informed Plaintiff that it would proceed with “provid[ing] the FBI access to the records in question, as requested by the incumbent President, beginning as early as Thursday, May 12, 2022.”  [citation]

What ratted that little detail out was Judge Aileen Cannon's agreement to the appointment of a "special master" to go over the documents confiscated by the FBI in its dramatic Mar-a-Lago raid on Trump's personal residence. The request was made by President Trump, and was a reasonable one, given the fishing expedition nature of that FBI raid, which scarfed up tax documents, medical documents, passports, and nearly two thousand utterly unclassified newspaper clippings. It involved agents rifling through President Trump's 16-year-old son's room, tossing its contents, and agents pawing through all the garments in former first lady Melania Trump's personal closet, leaving it a shambles, with some reports out there that the agents made time to take selfies of themselves with the property in these personal premises. If such reports are true, then my, my, didn't they have fun on the job that taxpayers were paying them for?

Conservative Treehouse has a good explanation of the exact rationale here.

More than just an indiscriminant document dragnet, (which violates President Trump's Fourth Amendment rights against unreasonable searches and seizures), the judicial ruling also was a reasonable decision based on Cannon's notation that the "filtering" system had already failed in that documents that investigators had no right to had already fallen into their hands. Secondarily, in a case which is supposed to be all about the government's right to keep secrets, the material had begun leaking out from the Justice Department to prejudice the public already, which makes a mockery of the government's "concern" about secrets. It's the old Adam Schiff-style 'I get to leak and you get to stay silent' as I conduct my kangaroo trial against you in secret, serving as investigator, judge and jury all at once. 'Fairness' is for the birds.

And Cannon did note that her move was to ensure "at least the appearance of fairness" in her ruling.

What's come out now in this special master appointment is that Joe Biden knew about the raid on Trump's residence all along. Based on the stated quote above, it's likely he planned it.

...

I would not put it past Biden to do such a thing.  The DOJ appears to be Biden's personal hit squad since taking office and Trump had to be high on his enemies list.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t

Bin Laden's concern about Zarqawi's remains

James Robbins: ... Bin Laden suggests that President Bush should allow Zarqawi’s body to be returned to his family in Jordan, but this is a matter that is up to the Jordanian government, which so far has not shown much interest in facilitating a homecoming. Bin Laden mocks King Abdullah II, calling him a Coalition minion, and asking “w hat scares you about Abu Musab after he’s dead? You know that his funeral, if allowed to happen, would be a huge funeral showing the extent of sympathy with the mujahedin.” A large crowd would definitely turn out, though most people would be on hand to demonstrate their anger and disgust. Last November’s hotel bombings in Amman , masterminded by Zarqawi, are still fresh in people’s memory, and mentioning them to Jordanians has the same visceral impact as memory of the 9/11 attacks does here. Jordan has adopted a zero-tolerance policy towards those who choose to mourn the country’s least favorite son, and four opposition members of parliament who paid con
