But the FBI did not raid Clinton’s home in Chappaqua, N.Y. And despite the fact that what Comey publicly called Clinton’s “careless … handling of very sensitive, highly classified information” allowed foreign adversaries to obtain U.S. secrets, the FBI director determined that “no charges are appropriate in this case.”Many who argued then that Clinton’s mishandling of highly classified information was no big deal are cheering Monday’s search of Trump’s home for the same alleged crime.
While many facts are not yet known, we can know this much: The hypocrisy is rank. If Trump is now prosecuted for what might be a far less serious violation , his supporters will be right to cry foul. The decision to search Trump’s residence comes at a time when the FBI’s credibility lies in tatters. Americans know that Comey misled them when he
Fully fund the FBI even if it is just to put the GOP back to its old self , at one time they work easily with the Democrats . That was in 1950 the President was Ike Eisenhower !!!!!
Y’all print a lot of crap.
No it hasn’t “blundered”. The only blunder was waiting this long.
Posts like this are quite dangerous given the violence that is being advocated by those who support the former president. I urge the Post to act responsibly and not yell fire in a crowded theater.
Joe will be ordering more raids on republicans leading up to the midterms and November 2024
Opinion by Richard Nixon: Why going after Nixon was a blunder.
I swear to god
Calling Trump an “it” is a little offensive, but I’ll let you have this one.
Thiessen is a waste of time. As soon as i see his name i skip to other content. Why is allowing such nonsense.
Do better
I stopped reading at Thiessen
The GQP wants to defund law enforcement. That's the headline.
As someone else pointed out: no one is arguing that Trump didn't do it.
Are you guys reporting at all on all the great stuff Biden is getting done, just this week alone? Or is it just all trump all day. Just like he wanted?
Stfu, Marc. No one is above the law.
Why am I not surprised that this sychophancy was written by Marc Thiessen?
wtf, WaPo? from the paper that broke Watergate to the paper that defends a life-long criminal. how far you've fallen 😒
Shameful. You shouldn’t be bothsidesing this 👿
ClickBait
Marc and his opinion is not worth the paper it is written on …. WP should use more discretion when allowing so much misinformation (lies) to be printed 😑
A Criminal and a Traitor! That's what Trump is! And the less said about the ignoramuses who think Trump should be President again!
So much bullshit in that article
The Post has really fallen. Attacking the prosecution of the biggest, most dangerous criminal ever to serve in the Presidency is very sad to see.
Thinking about it again …. perhaps the Democrats want Trump to run again. Running against Trump may be the only way Biden or someone else can win 2024. 😉😁
Defund the FBI? Because of Trump & his victim act? No. We’re not all stupid. TrumpIsNotAboveTheLaw
Hey Trump called you third rate. I can see why marcthiessen but you're still trying to suck up to him. Sad
When Texas star pulls without a reason we fuck really hard by knowing the right to teach the fucking legal and enforcement to learn from Guru Ashok the IT Guy. Accept the mistake in teaching fake education to recruit to teach American
This is not gonna age well.
Terrible, terrible opinion by a dishonest writer that worked for trump. Wow. It’s amazing how poor the journalistic integrity of the post has become.
Magas wanting to defund the police now. I love how they're owning themselves. The dumbing down of Republicans has been painful for the world. Hopefully, LE will wake up & see how quickly they turn on each other.
How are you “writing” opinions about this already?
FreePressIsDead Once again 'Democracy dies because the Free Press is paid to help it die'
It’s Marc Thiessen. Yawn.
Man republicans just can’t stop trying out stupid themselves. Trump and *a whole lot of co-conspirators* are going to prison, wake up losers they attempted a coup and FAILED. Bad times are coming for them.
Bravo Washington post finally something worth reading 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Somehow an editor approved that
🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
Thiessen's article is full of half truths, misstatements of fact, and conclusions lacking factual basis. If a lawyer said this in court, I would be obliged by BAR ethical rules to report that as an ethics violation.
There simply aren’t facts to support many of the assertions partisan hack Thiessen makes. It is journalistic malpractice for the Post to allow this editorial to see the light of day. Do better.
Reported for misinformation
The blunder was 01-06-2021 ole!!
The Onion is slipping.
We're talking about documents, so classified that the inventory of said documents is also classified! It's not like the guy was careful with classified information...
FU Washington Post. This is BS and you know it, and you publish pure trash. Garbage
Did you write this? Or did Hannity?
Trump has in his possession a copy of the FBI's search warrant for Mar-A-Lago and the list of everything the FBI collected from Mar-A-Lago. If Trump and his defenders want to claim the FBI search was flawed, they should substantiate their claim by showing us the warrant & list.
Misinform much?
Hey, something that brings us together 😂
WaPo, please stop giving Thiessen space in your paper. He is a disgrace and is lying in this piece about Trump bring cleared by Muller.
Garbage article. Save yourself the time and don’t read.
So far voters have seen Trump not held responsible 4 any of his crimes. Impeached twice with solid facts as to his guilt & GOP let him walk. Yet GOP says it’s 4 law & order, but that just seems 2 be for the peons. GOP is the party of the wealthy & that’s who the GOP protects
Appropriation. You really can't make this shit up. Like clock work, White folks will always appropriate anything Black folks come up with.
DougJBalloon
nah, this article is a blunder
should be ashamed they published this. Trump clearly violated presidential records act by illegally taking documents from the White House & compounded hi scrime by refusing to give back everythig he took.
Absolute rubbish. Proving once again that opinions are like A-Holes, and the worst smelling ones are to be found .
Hi Marc, can you explain why a house needs to be raided to discover emails ? Then tell me how you would obtain printed documents WITHOUT physically seizing them ? When that's done I'd really like to know how Mueller 'cleared Trump' You embarrassed yourself with this 'opinion'
Thiessen whistling through the graveyard again...
Just like the Russia Russia Russia hoax, and the first and second impeachment hoaxes, this will fail. Trump WILL be the 47th President.
Trash
Really bold of the Post to allow a proven liar use their name to mainstream terrible opinions before any facts of the case are in. No way this will come back to haunt them.
This is the evidence of the failure of the US education system, what Fox or any other TV preacher says is more valuable than the evidence.
Is that the same as “Defund The Police”?
Amazing how he knows what they were after, what they have found, and what will happen in court
There should be a disclaimer that a clear partisan with no qualifications on the matter has written an opinion piece. In this case, a George W Bush/Donald Rumsfeld speech writer Marc Thiessen, with no qualifications to comment on legal process.
This is a stupid editorial decision and tweet.
BS!
'special counsel Robert S. Mueller III cleared Trump of engaging in a criminal conspiracy with Russia. The whole Trump-Russia collusion narrative was nothing more than a conspiracy theory' Nothing stated here is true.
Nobody is above the law Marc
Publishing an op-Ed based on nothing but conjecture. You guys should really do better.
Far too soon for this opinion. Let’s see what the indictment tells us.
SHUT UP MARC . Donald Trump is a traitor
Lol
We really don't need this opinion WP, it hurts the country. It takes a special kind of naive to think that Trump is innocent. He's a career criminal, deserves to live out his remaining few years in solitary. Stop helping the yokels too dense to realize he's a con man.
Opinion by most Americans: marcthiessen’s opinion sucks.
Clinton promptly provided the servers to the authorities for review. If she didn't, a different story. So obviously not comparable.
