Attorney General Merrick Garland denounced former President Trump’s claim conflating standard operating procedures for the FBI with an alleged attempt to use deadly force as “false” and “extremely dangerous.” Garland also noted that the language Trump drew attention to was also used in the search of President Biden’s home.

#Trump #Biden #FBI
But that’s not “standard” for a former US president who has Secret Service protection. Such authorization could lead to a deadly stand-off. And this is what Garland was hoping for.
It’s standard for anyone. Now move on to a new steaming turd, but clean the old tracks off of the wall first.
The FBI knew he had secret service protections. You honestly think the secrete service isn’t gonna cooperate with people they know are FBI odds are they probably know eachother anyway.
ROFLMNAO… you cant believe a word these progs say.
I will tell you, I do not believe word that comes out of any of their mouths.
How much do you wanna bet they’ll try if Trump wins
This guy has been lying to American patriots every time he opens his mouth.
Trump has truly gone full demented.
Let the GQP lies and crying begin!
LOL…They’re going from desperation to full tilt panic.
LIES!
The FBI WERE AT MARA LAGO TWO WEEKS PRIOR AND TRUMP FULLY COOPERATED WITH THEM. THEY WERE AFRAID OF TRUMP HAVING THE “FAST AND FURIOUS “ DOCUMENTS.THESE DOCUMENTS WOULD PUT HILLARY AND OBAMA IN SERIOUS TROUBLE.
Garland should be charged with attempted MURDER!
HAHAHA…Sorry…Trying not to laugh…HAHAHA…………….
They had fbi guys raid an ex presidents place with machine guns
The banana republic usurpers and gaslighters , now they , all see the deep state fears justice
And they found even MORE documents yesterday! In the traitors bedroom!
He hasn’t refuted Anything 😂😂😂😂
This whole administration is corrupt and dangerous! Biden was not raided! Lies!!
They were seizing documents not the individual himself. Knowing that Trump was protected by secret service, if Trump was the intended target, his detail would have detained him. It’s stupid to believe any of Trumps lies.
He is a darn liar
The dissidents within the DOJ would NEVER involve the AG in their plan to eliminate a political figure!
Garland lies and lies, what a bstrd.
Leave it to Trump! For crying out loud – he was not even there!!!
Its in writing.
Garland is a proven liar. I don’t believe in anything he says.
How you can listen to trump lies and think it is real. It’s like watching cartoons and thinking they are real. Report real news not stupid stuff like this. It’s as if you turned your brain on stupid and report stupidity news to stupid people.
What a joke really it was a standard search warrant
LYING FAKE NEWS
President Trump Tells Police Officers Not To Be ‘Too Nice’ With Suspects. Why is he complaining now?
Trump 2024
LOL…MAGA commenters are in full-tilt panic mode for a gotcha moment. It’s as if their “feelings are hurt.” Imagine that!…LOL
Doubt very seriously that Traitor Joe’s warrant had that clause on it.. but we’ll never see the original.
Nothing to see anyway, Jethro. Garland has been fact checked as truthful, and as usual, your orange turd was fact checked as a pathological liar.
BTW, if you feel like perpetuating some more lies, please do tell specifically how our legitimately elected President Biden is a traitor.
I can’t wait until orange Jim Jones tells all of his followers to drink the Kool aid with him.
Oh surprise trump more than likely new that. If not he needs new “yes men “….
It was in the “standard operating” protocol. They didn’t tell the FBI guys to “take Trump out.” I despise Merrick Garland because he did nothing to Trump in 2021, and we are still seeing that criminal run free, terrorizing half the country and brainwashing the other half. A MAGA-sized Jim Jones.
SOP has ended up having absolutely nothing to do with any of this. As it turned out, Garland’s statement was fact checked as truth, whereas, once again, trump has been fact checked as an unexpurgated liar.
Moscow Marge and dumb Donnie with more lies and b.s. Moscow Marge is a good liar for Putin and dumb Donnie lies about everything!
If Merrick Garland was the threat the fascist right think he is , Steve Bannon would be behind bar’s NOW 😑⚖️🇺🇸
Standard Operating Procedure. Someone please make con-man Trump go away. He just harvests stupidity for his corrupt cronies.
Put Trump in jail for a few days since nothing makes him a good citizen. He can’t do that if I can’t do that.then start making him write stuff as a complaint then he will be lying on a federal official document
You want some guy on the justice department to jail a president of the United States. Yes that’s going to work. No one would object to that 😂
@@geraldineskinner5941 Absolutely no remorse here.
@@geraldineskinner5941 BTW, specifically, what are you implying here?
@@larrysmac what are you imprisoning him for. When he retakes office, do you expect him to do the same to his political opponents. Rather than deteriorate into a third world dictatorship, why not just come up with some ideas that the citizens actually like and would vote for.
@@geraldineskinner5941 Really? Retaking office is unlikely, and “a third world dictatorship” is only likely if he should. Nevertheless, if he’s “done the crime, he needs to do the time,” just like either of us would be expected to. And as far as ideas that citizens actually like, are you familiar with the US Congress? Good ideas are introduced daily, only to be railroaded by extremists who would rather cut off their noses to spite their faces.
He did the same thing during the riots in Portland Oregon when he sent in security details from Texas.
Trump lies and stupid people send him money.
Every FBI raid for decades has the same standard instructions re limiting the use of lethal force if the agents’ lives are threatened. Unless Trump tried to shoot them first, nothing would happen to him, and since they knew (via his bodyguards) that he wasn’t there … that couldn’t happen.
Just another BS conspiracy theory spread by someone undermining our rule of law & who is unfit to be the next POTUS!!!
hey nbc, garland didn’t refute a single thing. every time he opens his mouth, i thank God he ain’t scotus
Everything Garland said has been fact checked as truth, whereas everything the orange turd said has been fact checked as lies—as usual.
He should stop persecuting trump with false court cases. Find some policies that people will vote for and bob’s your uncle, you might end up winning legitimately
It should read, “prosecuting” with concrete evidence. There, I fact checked and corrected it for you.
Hmmm… Oh, I get it. Youre a fan of gaslighting.
Deflect much? The only gaslighting here has once again been proven to be from your orange turd.
If they wanted Trump dead, he would be dead. They had no problem assassinating Dr King and Malcolm X. And got away with it. Be for real.
Just because they haven’t done it already doesn’t mean they won’t!
Well done. Thank you Mr. Garland. There is so much damage done by the dangerous misinformation from the MAGA Republicans.
What a liar, it’s in the order to raid marlago. That’s been made public.
Check your sources, and stop spreading lies.
I can’t believe he has to get up here and say this. You guys have taken this too far. Your country is F***ED and the rest of the world is going to pay the price.
That was my initial reaction. Ordinarily, some speech such as incitement, and false statements of fact are not protected by the 1st Amendment of our Constitution. Unfortunately, these 1st Amendment exceptions apparently apply to the general population, but not politicians.
Garland is dishonest.
How is that?
It certainly wouldn’t surprise me! After all, the Democrats are the Seth Rich MURDERERS! I wouldn’t put anything past them and the same FBI is covering up the murder til this day!
LOL…Please…Save the lies for your conservative victims support group.
@@larrysmac Sorry! Not a conservative, I’m a progressive and u should do your homework, u might learn something! But if walking around in Denial makes u feel good, have at it!
@@KevinWalkerKW LOL…Please…Don’t flatter yourself with the lame disclaimer there, Skippy. We progressives deal in evidence based facts—not your imaginary clairvoyance. Like I said, “Save the lies…”
Bye bye, and have a life.
@@larrysmac Try doing some homework, u might learn something, SKIPPY!
NBC and Gsrland are the liars
And how is that when this entire scenario has been fact checked, and as usual, the orange turd was proven to be the liar.
One of Trump’s examples in the SCOTUS arguments for immunity was the sitting President being able to order extrajudicial executions of a threat to the nation. His lawyers argued FOR the ability to do this. Trump is absolutely delusional.
So i just got done reading the Consitution and reviewing Tennessee vs Garner. Turns out that its always been ok for law enforcement officials to defend their lives if their lives are threatened while in the course of their official duties. Also, it turns out that I could also shoot Trump if he pulled a gun on me, civilians are actually given more rights than a cop to do so. Wild
Reading—especially reading the Constitution is a novel concept on the right.
Garland is a pathological liar with blood on his hands as far as i am concerned erica garland your an assasin
Specifically how is he lying?
They were hoping to end him. they are so dumb they assume Trump would try to stop them. Trump is smarter than the whole bunch of them put together.
I see you must have missed the memo. As usual, trump’s claim was proven to be an outright lie.
The Gastopo Government right before your lying eyes. Banana Republic right before you.😂😂😂😂😂
You misspelled “gazpacho” there, Marj.
Don’t you understand it’s legitimate because we do it to everybody? in my opinion it’s not a good defense for the procedure existing because they also did it to Biden when they raided him. Active or former presidents should not be raided at all for the fact that it can be construed as intimidation because that’s what it looks like.
Not only did they have the permission to take him out but they also have just been found to have scattered all the documents on the floor and staged the entire thing. Someone will go to jail over it. Eventually.
Broke into our president’s home with this kind of thing these people are out of control
Biden was behind the whole thing
Breaking news FBI staged all of the documents on the floor of marlago
Yes , no one would place them on the floor with those Top Secret cover sheets .
Fortunately this guy was kicked out of the nomination to be a Supreme Court judge by both Republicans & Democrats wise senators…
And He denies the FBI was directed to target school board parents……
And the origins of this DOJ weaponization started with LERNER targeting the tea party.
Mr AG has been caught red handed!
More proof of democratic destruction
If trump products use azo dye did he stain himself orange at the yellow vat? Because that stuff will cause brain damage and liver and kidney failure. It may have driven him criminally insane.
I think you may have drank some of that hair dye you say Trump uses .
Is he still the golden… Calf… And do we Sacrafice him?
Who is ‘ HE ‘ ?
They want to pull trumps secret service detail
Again trump is making false statements.trump’s shouldn’t making false statements
Trump is not making false statements . Garland is lying.
The Deadly force approval document came into public view. The view was to use restraint in judging a reason/cause to use deadly force. Try very much not to shoot. The walking about of agents with AR style weapons with sling straps none the less produced a theater of fear.
How are these people not in jail?
Trump knows that’s a lie, that how he gets the dumb people to listen.
ITS NOT A FALSE CLAIM THESE FOOLS ARE CLOWNS AND MOST DEMOCRATS ARE CRIMINALS
Hes jewish
When ever you hear or read words from American democrats immediately translate anything they say as “Total Lies”. Then move along and do not waste your time.
Garland one of the biggest liars! We see right through these swamp criminals
I do not believe a word that comes out of Garlands mouth. He lies about everything.
Big difference how they raided Trump’s residence and Joe biden’s home.. No there’s nothing to see here we treat everyone the same.. SWAT team tanks helicopters at Mar-A-Lago.. and 2 government lawyers for Joe Bidens.. disgusting..
There’s a difference because unlike Biden, trump was asked to return documents numerous times and refused to do so. Why didn’t he just comply?
Trump lying is not news. It’s like saying the sun rising in the East this morning is news.
Lying 🤥 for Trump is just par for the course in Trumps daily affairs and routines.
The NYT just reported the FBI agents could use deadly force on the Trump raid
oh the madness 😠
Leave it to Trump to think that Biden would do something that
Trump himself has talked about doing. Biden knows he has Trump’s # in a fair election. No storming the capital or fake electors. That is an act of desperation and only from a loser!
The real Trump is long gone ❤
Also remember they used the FBI from DC to raid mar o lag o
FBI is a federal law enforcement agency. They have jurisdiction everywhere in the US.
Trump was likely trying to incite the lesser intelligent of his followers to act on this by assassinating President Biden…..
It’s so stupid he wasn’t even at Marlago. It’s so dumb for anyone to believe that. Come on, people, just research it…. I’m just shaking my head 😮
Look at the Jezebel behind garland i can smell his corruption and hers from new Zealand
44 US Presidents over 234 years and NOT a single insurrection attack on the US Govt Capitol, he’s crying for Immunity. America is in a CULT mode.
Why does the FBI have their minions play the role as “White Supremacist.” 😂 🤣
good parley
Trump’s statements about assassination are defamatory
Let’s be honest I don’t care what side you’re on. This guy is an absolute crook.
“Lethal force is stand” This was anything but a standard situation. Secret Service has always been around him. They’ve obviously been listening in on every phone call trying to get something on this man for 6 1/2 years. The Best can come up with some girl that he slept with to try to smear him. Meanwhile, Biden gets away with $6 million And a lot more this is Weaponized. The alphabet agencies go unchecked because the Democrat party won’t allow anybody to look into it. I don’t care what side of the aisle you’re on this should scare you. Alphabet control everything that we see Project Mockingbird 2.0.✊🏾🇺🇸👑
yeah, and I’m sure Putin and the KGB uses that very same vernacular “standard procedure” when he raids/arrests his political opponents.
Why did they have drawn guns during the raid. At Bidens residence the had no guns explain why gun at mar- a logo and not at Bidens house
First, I don’t believe *_ANYTHING_* NBC reports. Second, the *_deadly force_* provision of the illegally-obtained search warrant is really starting to make the Mar-A-Lago raid appear to be an *_assassination attempt_* by a corrupt president, using a corrupt DOJ, in order to eliminate a political rival. Who does this sort of thing? Despots like Mao Zedong, Xi Jinping, Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong Un, Idi Amin, Robert Mugabe, Pol Pot, Augusto Pinochet, Nicolae Ceaușescu, Nicolás Maduro, Joseph Stalin… and now… Joseph Biden. Welcome to the *_Despot Club,_* Joe!
If the search warrant was illegally obtained then why is it that when Trump appealed to the 11 th circuit court of appeals he didn’t argue that. He argued that they should throw it out because he’s a former president not that it was illegallly obtained d
Weird that they would order a hit on trump and also specifically pick a day they knew Trump wouldn’t be present to conduct the search. The GOP is so cooked
Why raid the house of a former United States President in the first place? It has never been done before in the history of our Republic. All gloves were off when they decided to defy all the norms. Including the assassination of a former President.
Trump had been asked multiple times to return the documents and he didn’t. This is public knowledge
This is the first time in history, a President of the United States, authorize his political opponent to be assassinated by a government agency. This shows you how much Biden wants to remain in power
Fauci Advisor CAUGHT trying to hide E-mails from FOIA request which is illegal! What will you do now that a Government Official has broken a law? If you lack evidence from lack of looking I’m sure Judicial Watch would be happy to assist. WHAT WILL YOU DO???
You’re a liar and corrupt.
Garland is a proven liar.
Will DOJ investigate/prosecute Alito and Thomas in a timely manner?
DOJ corrupt as all can see
