Trump plans to SUE Justice Department for $100M over Mar-a-Lago classified documents raid |
2024-08-13 |
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Former President Donald Trump![]() is preparing to launch a $100 million lawsuit accusing Attorney General G Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray of running a 'malicious prosecution' against him. It comes two years after the 2022 of Trump's Mar-a-Lago home that yielded a trove of 300 documents marked 'classified'. Trump-appointed Judge Aileen Cannon subsequently dismissed a case brought by special counsel Jack Smith against the former president. The new lawsuit, prepared by Trump lawyer Daniel Epstein, claims a 'clear intent to engage in political persecution' against Trump. It says the search, which occurred while Trump was away, came from actions 'rooted in intrusion upon seclusion, malicious prosecution, and abuse of process.' The actions of the DOJ and FBI are 'inconsistent with protocols requiring the consent of an investigative target, disclosure to that individual’s attorneys, and the use of the local U.S. Attorney’s Office,' Epstein writes in the document obtained by Fox News.

#1 I wonder if the rationale for this is the publication of material that set this invasion of Mar-al-Lago in motion. |
