The Mar-a-Lago raid is another escalation of the use of federal agencies against political opponents of the regime, while people like Hunter Biden are treated with silk gloves. Now the system has 87,000 new tax employees to deploy against their opponents? Banana Republic! Florida Governor Ron DeSantis thundered according to Fox News.
He points to the fact that President Joe Biden’s new law means that the US IRS will receive money employs 87000. Senator Marco Rubio says the same thing.
– After this raid on Mar-a-Lago, in your opinion, what is the left planning to use 87,000 new tax employees in? asks Marco Rubio, who also says that this is the thing that is happening in Third World countries, under Marxist dictators.
Rubio adds that Biden is playing with fire by using a document dispute to have the Justice Department go after a potential opponent in future elections.

Threatening to investigate
House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy has threatened Attorney General Merrick Garland to investigate Garland if Republicans win a majority after the fall midterm elections.
– I’ve seen enough. The Ministry of Justice has reached an intolerable state of politicization. When the Republicans take back the House, we will conduct an immediate investigation of his department, following the facts and turning every stone over. “Attorney General Garland, take care of your documents and clear your calendar,” McCarthy says via Twitter.
Rona McDaniel, who chairs the Republican National Committee, also blames Democrats.
Total power corrupts completely. We have countless examples of Democrats flouting the law and abusing their power without remorse, including Hunter Biden. Democrats continue to use bureaucracy as a weapon against Republicans. McDaniel says this raid is unheard of.
Compared to Venezuela
Donald Trump’s son Eric criticizes FBI raid via ‘Hanity’ Day Fox News:
– That’s not what we are. Such is Venezuela. This is the behavior of the Banana Republic. The FBI storming the home of the 45th President of the United States, breaking open safes, this is not our democracy. Imagine if this happened to Barack Obama. Eric Trump says that would lead to riots.

Andrew McCabe, who Trump named interim FBI director after Comey and accepted Ray, says senior leadership in the Justice Department and the FBI should have approved the raid.
I cannot stress strongly enough the extent of the deal that would have been internal to the Department of Justice and the FBI. This is something that should be carefully planned, evaluated over and over, and legally investigated from all angles by the entire management of the two agencies, McCabe says. CNN.
CNN meanwhile reports that the Justice Department is investigating Trump in connection with the investigation into the January 6, 2021 attack on Congress and the former president’s handling of top-secret documents.
President Joe Biden wasn’t aware of the FBI raid until it was mentioned in the news, a person in the White House says, according to CNN. Former Trump campaign manager Steve Bannon is not buying it.
– This has to be approved, all the way to the White House, via Merrick Garland, Ron Klein (Biden’s chief of staff, editor’s note), Ray and the gang. This is pure power policy. According to Fox News, Bannon says they are terrified of Trump.
Boasting investigations in 2015
Kevin McCarthy has spoken about investigations before. In 2015, he bragged about Republicans hurting Hillary Clinton in the polls by going after her in the House Benghazi investigations.
Everyone thought Hillary Clinton was unbeatable, right? But we launched an investigation in Benghazi, and what are its poll numbers today? The numbers are decreasing. why? McCarthy said because she can’t be trusted in 2015.
Republican Investigations BenghaziWhich focused on Hillary Clinton, was shut down a month after losing to Trump in the 2016 presidential election.
