Wait....isn’t this the same guy who signed off on the raid, and now is calling it unprecedented? Color me confused.
^^^^ Right?
Or maybe he was actually lied to and didn't like being lied to.
Sometimes the bitterest red pills get dispensed when you think you're doing the right thing, but you receive backlash because you did the wrong thing based on a lie.
This is something we should consider more often. Deceiving people to control them is much easier than attempting control through the "I'm more evil than you and if you don't listen you'll regret it method". It works, but it's simply much easier to get people to actually believe your bullshit instead of trying to manage hundreds of people who are in the know about what's actually going on and liable to jump ship at the first sign of trouble.
Then again, there are plenty of genuinely evil people too so it's really about finding out who's who.
Yeah, not saying this was what happened but it's an angle that should be considered. When you control all of the information that a judge gets and demand a warrant for something, that judge may not take kindly to that provided information being a lie to create a weaponized DoJ.
Especially because it's at his expense, and it jeopardizes everything he rules from now on.
Blackmail is a helluva drug
Another possibility is whatever the real target for going in there has been retrieved and now he is protecting his professional standing in law and could care less except for himself what happens with the FBI agents. Most times when something political in nature happens you get individual that have reasons that bring them together to do what they did. There could be 2 or more distinct reasons and distinct groups that want the search warrant served and none of the real reason for the search are on the paperwork presented to the judge for the warrant.
This guy had connections to Epstein. He has no morals
Exactly. If he's ruling in a way that appears to be positive for Trump, it's either optics and we can expect a ridiculously redacted affidavit to the point that it's useless, or there's some other ulterior motive at play here.
Short of having flipped, someone with connections to Epstein like his, shouldn't be taken at face value as a good faith actor
Exactly! He’s a POS no doubt, that’s why they used him to sign off on their political search. He’s just trying to look and sound unbiased now, hoping many idiots will buy it.
You don't have to have good morals to dislike being lied to, and -- indeed -- hypocrites have loose morals and hate having things done to them that they do to others..such as lying.
Interesting hypothesis, but probably unlikely. He has one of the most severe cases of TDS I've ever seen. He should've recused himself but didn't. That's very revealing.
He already did in another case a month or so ago....
Trump lawyer calls out judge who approved Mar-a-Lago search warrant for Clinton case
You are right. Thanks for your perspective.
covering his beehind.
He might also sense the winds of change blowing through the palms, realizing his Democrat pals might be on their way to GITMO and won't have his back. No time like to present to start changing sides?
"Oh wait, the raid was for Donald Trump? I thought they said Ronald Trump"
You mean the hamburger guy?
Now i want a hamburger
Maybe he was epically lied to by the FBI, they same way the FISA judges were.
I thought it was the guy from Fast Times at Ridgemont High, and Charlie’s stepdad in The Santa Clause.
Dude... I'm sooooo high right now. (bangs sneaker against head...)
Awesome, Totally Awesome!
