While we can’t know these things for certain, I mention that they currently constitute the theory of the case all the extant evidence suggests as a way of underscoring that anyone presuming this was a political stunt is carefully rejecting every single more plausible explanation — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
The FBI is now engaged in the largest investigation in the history of the Bureau, and it’s focused on Trump and January 6, so if Occam’s Razor means anything it suggests Trump may be hiding classified documents that would incriminate him in Seditious Conspiracy or even Treason — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
The conspiracy to hide these documents from the FBI also suggests a level of premeditation, desperation and coordination that points to how significant these national security-implicating documents must be, and suggests they’re documents the FBI needs for an ongoing investigation — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
It goes without saying that even a career criminal like Trump wouldn’t seek to steal classified documents unless those documents in some way incriminated him in a larger crime than the stealing of classified documents in the first place constitutes, so this is extremely serious — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
What we don’t know yet is who directed these Trump agents to lie—though I’ll give you one guess who it’d probably have to be for them to willingly commit a federal felony the FBI routinely arrests people for—and why Trump desperately needed to hold onto these classified documents — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
(📢) This is serious—and fully explains the Mar-A-Lago search. Amidst an investigation seeking documents implicating national security, the FBI found that Trump’s agents were lying—a federal felony. And why were they lying? To *steal classified documents*. https://t.co/fOCIBsqJYg — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
As federal law enforcement gets closer and closer to career criminal Donald Trump, the shrieks of his cultists and co-conspirators—now reminiscent of a 4-year-old lamenting a stolen binky—will only get louder, less coherent, and more reminiscent of Jim Carrey’s Flipper impression — PolitiTweet.org

(PS) Contrary to its usage by GOP ideologues for decades, the phrase “law and order”—properly applied—*means* equality under law, equal justice under law, adherence to the rule of law, respect for human rights, fidelity to the Constitution and ceaseless support for voting rights. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
The Democratic Party is the party of law and order. The GOP is a lawless cult that fetishizes fascism and hates democracy. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
Imagine being an elected official and saying that—court-approved warrant or not—the FBI can’t legally search the home of elected officials. Fascism is on the ballot this November. I plan to vote against it because—unlike Stefanik and Trump—I love America and was properly raised. — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Elise Stefanik @RepStefanik
If the FBI can raid a U.S. President, imagine what they can do to you.

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
The sentiment is clear: Trump can’t be investigated by anyone, for any reason, ever. If he is, there’ll be hell to pay. It’s the same attitude the Trumpists and far-right media now have about *elections*. No matter how or when Trump runs, he must win. Or there’ll be hell to pay. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
It’s *August 2022* and Jesse Watters—trying to get the anger of his viewers to a rolling boil; keep in mind he knows some of his viewers are dangerous domestic extremists—is excoriating the FBI for conducting an investigation of Trump in “the run-up to a presidential election.” — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
It can’t be overstated how dangerous the game the Republican Party and far-right media are playing. They know full well that a court-approved search warrant is consistent with the rule of law. The rhetoric they’re spreading instead is vile and incendiary. https://t.co/GdgDDTxp3w — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
It was confirmed tonight that there’s no bottom for the GOP when it comes to what it’s willing to do to America—and have happen to America—to protect (a) Trump, (b) its elected members who participated in federal crimes on and before January 6. And yes—no bottom means no bottom. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
The tweet below is from a man who lied to America, and shortly plans to lie to federal investigators—a felony—about a call he had with the then-President of the United States as that president was staging a violent coup. Clear your calendar, Kevin—the FBI will get to you shortly. — PolitiTweet.org

UPDATE7/ ...the FBI knows what documents they’re looking for; knows Trump possessed them; knows he lied about giving everything back; knows why he lied about what he kept; and thus has a case whether it finds the documents or not. That’s how I’d play it as a lawyer/investigator. — PolitiTweet.org

UPDATE6/ ...suggests they believe he kept (or hid, or destroyed, or sold, or gave away) evidence of a crime. The problem: if *that’s* their theory of the case, the chance Trump was stupid enough to keep the evidence rather than destroy it is fairly low. Which leads me to think... — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
UPDATE5/ Donald Trump is a man with a history of Obstruction offenses who had, when he left office, just committed the gravest political crime in modern U.S. history after four years of committing other crimes. Not hard to imagine what the FBI is concerned about. Occam’s Razor... — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
UPDATE4/ But that wouldn’t be enough for a search. If the FBI looks in the National Archives and sees that a document is missing, that’s likely something they would just approach Team Trump about. But if it is missing *and they think they know why*, a search makes far more sense. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
UPDATE3/ And I’ll tell you as a former criminal defense attorney and investigator—though you could figure this out for yourself—that if a man illegally takes documents and lies about giving them all back, the ones he didn’t give back... well, somehow they *matter*. Significantly. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
UPDATE2/ ...and then, sometime thereafter, the FBI went to a judge and said a) we have probable cause to believe a crime was committed, b) we need to search Mr. Trump’s house. Highest probability: they know Trump stole or destroyed, hid, or gave away certain classified documents. — PolitiTweet.org
