Donald Trump is aiming for a Supreme Court showdown with the FBI.
Trump may finally get his wish.
Donald Trump destroyed the FBI with one surprise request to Clarence Thomas.
Trump’s legal team filed an emergency petition to Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas appealing a decision by the 11th Circuit Court Appeals allowing the Department of Justice access to allegedly classified documents to continue their criminal investigation.
In the petition Trump argued this was a politically motivated investigation and that the special master should finish the process of determining which documents were protected by executive or attorney client privilege before turning over anything to the Department of Justice.
Trump’s lawsuit argued:
The unprecedented circumstances presented by this case—an investigation of the Forty-Fifth President of the United States by the administration of his political rival and successor—compelled the District Court to acknowledge the significant need for enhanced vigilance and to order the appointment of a Special Master to ensure fairness, transparency, and maintenance of the public trust.
That appointment order is simply not appealable on an interlocutory basis and was never before the Eleventh Circuit. Nonetheless, the Eleventh Circuit granted a stay of the Special Master Order, effectively compromising the integrity of the well-established policy against piecemeal appellate review and ignoring the District Court’s broad discretion without justification.
This unwarranted stay should be vacated as it impairs substantially the ongoing, time-sensitive work of the Special Master. Moreover, any limit on the comprehensive and transparent review of materials seized in the extraordinary raid of a President’s home erodes public confidence in our system of justice.
The FBI raid of Mar-a-Lago over a document dispute set off a political earthquake across America.
Attorney General Merrick Garland authorized the FBI barging into Trump’s home 92 days before the midterm election calling the motivation behind the raid into question.
Democrats and Joe Biden made it clear they wanted the midterm to serve as a referendum on Donald Trump.
Armed FBI agents storming onto Donald Trump’s property as part of a criminal investigation thrust Trump into the middle of the headlines providing Democrats a boost with their campaign messaging.
Now the case could head all the way to the Supreme Court.
And that could throw a curveball in the Biden administration’s plan to charge Trump as soon as possible in order to stop Trump from running for re-election in 2024.
But if this case goes to the Supreme Court it would ruin the administration’s election schemes as Trump would declare his candidacy and any ensuing criminal charges would look like Joe Biden is trying to put Trump in jail because Trump is the top GOP threat to win back the White House.
