    They might have been waiting for him to leave for New Jersey. They certainly didn't want him there during the search.

    He had info a year and was out of town. Secret service were there.
    I seem to remember stuff about warrant service on weekends, but that was a long, long t8me ago.

    Maybe to coordinated the raid and ensure it’s tight. Maybe fbi wanted to get out messages to key people to be ready for reprisals. We see how trump followers and maga congressional reps are losing it. - they are threatening to kill and civil war. So many of them are unstable and collect assault weapons. It’s reasonable to prepare for violence.

    not to mention this is a former potus who was the catalyst for an attack on the US Capital.

    Whether the FBI finds them or not, they seem to have gone missing on DTs watch. Which is weird cuz he was so laser focused on serving the needs of our country in those last months.

    Maybe you’ve got something there. Maybe the plan was to execute the warrant on a Monday and keep the news fresh for a week instead of buried over the weekend.

    Aren't the nuclear codes changed when a president leaves office? If there are nuclear secrets in the boxes, maybe they pertain to capabilities, locations, schematics, etc?

    I would just like to say I guessed “nuclear codes” in post #340.

    The FBI and DOJ didn't want Trump there. Would've been an absolute circus. The FBI wanted to avoid this as much as possible.

    As for nuclear codes, yes, they change. But other nuclear information of value would be capabilities, sub locations, and Intel on other countries we know.

    He doesn't have nuclear codes now. Schematics are much more likely. It would only be urgent if they thought there was an immediate threat that Trump would pass them on. With all the surveillance technology at their disposal, the FBI likely knew everything that was going on there. What little they didn't know, the unidentified stooge did. There are rumors now that it was a family member.

    I would think they rotate even more often than that, but you still don’t want anything about the mechanics of that launch system getting out. Its public knowledge there is a “nuclear football”, beyond that its got to be highest level classification. Even the “response time” is supposed to be classified. I remember righties freaking out because Clinton accidentally revealed a rough estimate of that time (I think during a debate?). Will be quite a hoot if Trump was actually stashing nuclear documents, watch these jokers explain that away. Epic level hypocrisy incoming.

    We’re the greatest country in the world. Yet:

    - we have a corrupt FBI and DOJ according to some
    - we have a deep state which runs the country
    - we have a senile, incompetent president
    - we just had a president who is almost universally regarded as a man of little character and no morals who repeatedly and blatantly lied....and citizens who regard this as untrue
    - we had thousands of citizens storm the Capitol to seek to overturn a valid election, and who still believe the election was rigged
    - we have more guns in the hands of private citizens than any nation on earth, by far
    - we have more mass shootings of any nation, again by far
    - we have republicans in the House who espouse odious views seen only in the worst of countries
    - we have rotting infrastructure
    - we botched removing people from Afghanistan

    There's more, but the question can now be asked: Why, exactly, do we say America is the greatest country on earth?

    The Trump administration was trying to facilitate the sale of nuclear technology to the Saudis back in 2017. I think Mike Flynn was running the show. Didn't get very far but I doubt the idea ever left his mind.

    The last thing they wanted was for it to be on the news all week.

    To be clear, this is a satirical tweet.
