That's exactly why I'm cautious about unnamed sources quoted by the press. You never know who they are talking to and you have no way to verify what is being said. And sometimes, what is attributed to these sources turns out to be flat-out wrong. It also sometimes happens what what is attributed...

It appears the opposite is true. Trump's attorneys and representatives (and Trump himself) were not cooperating fully. A subpoena was issued and the partial response was unsatisfactory. So DOJ took the next step and got a search warrant.

Actually, yes, SOP exactly.

It probably was very good reason. That's why the judge saw fit to allow the search. This is not a familiar topic to me. But from what I gathered watching the news today, the affidavit will come into the public record if charges are filed.

DOJ Files Motion to Unseal Mar-a-Lago Search Warrant & Property Receipt "Attorney General Merrick Garland said Thursday the Justice Department had filed a motion to unseal the search warrant and property receipt from a search FBI agents conducted Monday at former President Donald Trump's...

If he has it, one reason for him to not release it is it may list the specific crimes the grand jury and DOJ believes were committed. That's not something he'd want made public. I don't know if he has it or not. I can only say I believe he does. But if he has it, he's unlikely to release it...

Additional detail here: "What the former president will not have a copy of — but which will have been presented to and signed by the judge who approved the search — is the affidavit the FBI used to obtain the warrant, which is sealed while a case is ongoing."

MAGA people do what their leaders tell them to do. If DeSantis says he wants Haley because it improves their chances of winning the general election, MAGA will fall in line.

Meaningless Basement Point I've lived in Florida for a number of years and I have yet to see even one building that has a basement. We're on the coast and the water table is such that basements are not built here. Maybe inland there are buildings with basements. Maybe in the big cities there...

Yes, DeSantis will run if Trump also runs. DeSantis knows his time is now. He will not pass up that chance and he knows he can easily defeat Trump in a contest for the Republican nomination.

Interesting point. Makes a big difference in my question if true. This article suggests Trump does have a copy of the warrant. A member of the Trump team is quoted saying they will not release the document, which suggests they have it. But elsewhere in the piece it is reported the Trump team...

I see little reason to believe a Trump/DeSantis ticket will develop. Trump has not endorsed DeSantis' 2022 FL governor bid and DeSantis has not asked Trump to do so. There are several Republicans that are said to be possible contenders for the Republican nomination. All but one of them have said...

More About the Mar-a-Lago Search Warrant So far, Trump has refused to release a copy of the search warrant under which his home, personal office, other offices and safe were searched. He has the right and freedom to do so. Numerous Republicans are calling for its release. But, so far, Trump is...

Some Americans are angry about this, not all. Maybe yes, maybe no. We'll know more as details emerge. That's a valid point. The more Trump is in the news, the more of a factor he is in American politics.

While I'm not a Democrat, my response to your request would be to say wait for the search warrant to be made public, by Trump himself if he is willing to release it or by the court that issued it, hopefully soon. From what I hear, the warrant will clearly specify the crime or crimes DOJ are...

I'm not sure this will go to trial or that charges will be filed. It may be the purpose of the search was nothing more than the government acting to get records back it urgently felt the need to get back and that Trump had not voluntarily returned. I have no expectations either way. Charges may...

In addition to the good info provided by Turtle above about the question you raise, Trump himself has a copy of the inventory list and the search warrant. He can release them to the public at any time. Turtle explains why the warrant has not yet been released by the FBI or the court. But since...

Both questions you ask are good questions. This is not my area of expertise. I only know what I gather from others on the news and elsewhere. Others may have better answers. As I understand it, an inventory list of the items seized was given to people at Mar-a-Lago by the FBI. Apparently that...

The DeSantis Feud Does Disney No Harm Subscriber growth up Theme park spending up Earnings up Revenue up The notion that Disney's policies and/or views somehow hurt this company's business outlook can be laid to rest. While DeSantis will likely use Disney again as a way to stir up his base...

I presume that because a search warrant was issued to recover documents improperly transported to Mar-a-Lago and GSA is unlikely to do that on their own. I'll add the method of transport is not at issue. Improper possession of the documents is.
