If they're raiding him, I hope they find plenty to implicate Trump. Remember Trump lifted sanctions against him...

Ivanky and JarJarBinks live right there, and KA Conway too-- Here's more about that mansion.

Thanks for the info! It's all part of what the DOJ is up to these days. It's a good thing we weren't informed of this in advance, isn't it?That would have also let the subject of that raid know it was coming, wouldn't it?

years now. Also, I read that house is essentially empty. But maybe there's some hidden trove of treasures left behind



Otherwise, we've been thrown a glittery thing of distraction.

maybe they'll find a casche of forgotten treasures in the basement, or behind a secret wall panel?

Is there any reporting on the current where abouts of the suspect named on the search warrant?

I feel like I read reports that he hasn't been in country since a few years ago, but maybe that was fake news or I haven't kept up with updated reports.

They're already out there trying to claim that this is John Durham's dealings, and that it's somehow going to nail Michael Steele. Another bizarre attempt at re-writing history...
