The White House was likely briefed before the FBI’s shocking raid on former President Trump’s private residence at Mar-A-Lago.

As The Daily Caller reports:

The top levels of the Biden administration, including the White House and officials leading the Department of Justice (DOJ), were likely aware of the Mar-a-Lago raid and may have even moved the warrant forward, two retired FBI agents told the Daily Caller News Foundation.

The retired FBI agents said that the White House likely received a briefing before the FBI conducted the raid. However, a White House spokesperson told the DCNF they “did not have notice of the reported action,” referring the DCNF to the DOJ, which declined to comment.

“So an event like yesterday’s is orchestrated, and particularly because it’s done against the former president. It’s orchestrated at the highest levels,” retired FBI Agent Robert Chacon, who focused on criminal, counterterrorism and forensic matters, told the DCNF.

“So that means the FBI director, it means the attorney general or his Deputy Attorney General was personally involved in this. There’s just no way I can believe that this warrant wouldn’t have been secured or that action wouldn’t have been taken without approval from the highest levels,” he added.

The retired special agent also speculated that the White House counsel may also have been briefed before the raid.




Comments

    1. I don’t understand your comments. “Play stupid AFTER the raid”?? When has anyone from the wh not “played” stupid? It is impossible for Biden to do anything other than “play stupid” and try to make us believe he is “smart”.

    2. The WH is playing stupid because they did not have the legal grounds for the search. This was another fishing expedition based on the same type of information as the Steel Dossier was.

    3. the President leaves the White House and heads for the Basement.
      no questions and no answers to the American public which we still live in a
      free Country who the people are still taxpayers.

    4. They don’t want to be accused of politicizing federal law enforcement agencies against their opponents and opposition. I cannot believe that the AG of the DOJ and the FBI Director were left out of the planning of this raid, and that they would do this without notifying the President first to make sure that he would not want them to take this political risk, that has now backfired on Biden and the Democrats.

  1. So what is the logic the joey lie-den administration is going to use? “We briefed the president. He just forgot. Well, you know his condition.”

  2. Briefed my aching back side it most likely came right from the top to “GET TRUMP,” th mantra from the get go when Pelosi FIXSED the 2020 election fraud.

  3. It’s soirresponsible–and bad journalism–for you to report this “likely” crap. Unlike Trump, Biden has sought NOT to make the Justice Department his plaything. Why won’t you people see that not everyone is as corrupt as Trump
