Yeah, making the affidavit public would "irreparably harm the government's ongoing criminal investigation" because it would reveal it to be the fucking farce we all know it is.

Quoted:

...The government has considered whether the affidavit could be released with redactions but "the redactions necessary to mitigate harms to the integrity of the investigation would be so extensive as to render the remaining unsealed text devoid of meaningful content, and the release of such a redacted version would not serve any public interest," government lawyers said in a footnote in an Aug. 15 brief.

"Nevertheless, should the Court order partial unsealing of the affidavit, the government respectfully requests an opportunity to provide the Court with proposed redactions," they said....

the real irony here, and I'm not convinced it isn't intentional, is this only further erodes any faith in institutions people have (well, all of them except the either fanatical left wing or fanatical soup bitch nut huggers, "lol").

Even if you dislike Trump and think he is dirty, everything about this seems suspicious and at the very least untoward, if not malicious.

I don't think any LE unseal an affidavit in an ongoing investigation until discovery if they can avoid it.

The simplest explanation is that there's a snitch in Trump's circle and they don't want to name him yet.

It's not like it hasn't happened before.

Trump is an existential threat because he's a voice for populism. He's literally the harbinger of doom for their money, power, and privilege.

How "bad faith" is their investigation that it would be "irreparably harmed" by unsealing the affidavit? Are they worried the public would realize all of this is just a fishing expedition? "We don't know what we can charge him with until we get to see all his private documents..."

That is the warrant, not the affidavit that supported the warrant. Warrants are largely meaningless, it's the affidavit that provides the probably cause for the warrant. Other than a social media post, it's unclear whether Trump has made any move to support the release of the affidavit on the case.

If I was an FBI agent, I would be quietly building a case against my own command and all the judges they have in their pocket for massive RICO violations and then taking it to a known good Judge that is outside the loop and seconding my entire case to State Law Enforcement in states with known good governors such as DeSantis.  

The DOJ is literally the world's biggest and well funded organized crime syndicate.  They are Mexican Federal police, and the Democrat machine is the fucking Sinaloa Cartel.  

Just like nothing happens in Mexico without the permission of the Cartel and without them profiting from it thanks to them thoroughly penetrating the Federal Law Enforcement and Judicial systems, nothing happens in America without the permission of the Obama and Clinton teams, nor without them profiting financially or politically from it somehow.....thanks to their thorough penetration of the Federal Law Enforcement and Judicial systems.

That includes elections, budgets, even media publishing and social media posting such as this site.  Remember how the Dem machine teamed up with AWS to shut down ARFCOM until they agreed to allow Glowie participation and surveillance?    

Also, just like the relationship between the Mexican Federales and Judges and the Cartels, the DOJ is allowed to have a real "win" once in awhile, investigations and convictions on an occasional small fry like Blagojevich, or small time election cheaters (as is happening now), just to maintain appearances and a veneer of legitimacy.

IIRC, this is the EXACT ARGUMENT that Lurch (FBI Director Comey) used to justify refusing to further investigate Hillary Clinton's illegal and leaky personal email server and all the Classified Information that leaked through it.  "It would create the perception of bias to investigate a political candidate in an election year".  You can't make this shit up!

Whenever the Leftist coordinated media has to air a point, and wants it perceived as "factual" they use the present tense and say it directly, i.e. "so and so aggressively pursued the victim and fired shots, striking him 10 times".

When they have to air a point, but want to AVOID actually making or reinforcing a point, they use the specific word "unclear".  INVARIABLY.........i.e. "it is unclear if the victim knew or interacted with the madman accused of shooting him 10 times" when in reality, the "victim" was holding up the shooter or some similar situation.

Are affidavits for federal search warrants typically sealed?  I (maybe incorrectly) was under the impression that was half the point of the FISA courts existing, to keep that kind of info confidential to all but the judge issuing the warrant.

Waiting for this to turn into the next Crossfire/Hurricane/Steel Dossier nonsense publicity stunt.



Don't wait, it already is.

Just like muh-Russia the classified documents scheme is perfect for the IC class to give column inches in discussion and the various talking heads to make their way onto news shows to discuss their bona fides while wringing their hands in concerned motions about the nation's secrets being mishandled.

Evvvrone is an expert on classified documents all of the sudden and that's the problem; they've successfully created this narrative that we need to discuss classification and various statutes that have little to nothing to do with why they did the raid in the first place.  

Anyone that buys into the story of the "seriousness" of these agencies with anything to do with Trump is fooling themselves.  They reacted to protect themselves and now they're selling a story about classification as if they're all suddenly Columbia law professors jibber jabbering about nuklar secrets.  It's actually all too predictable.
