Special counsel obtained search warrant for Donald Trump’s Twitter account

Yeah, THAT'S what CNN should've said in the headline. Investigations into Trump are so ordinary now they're barely news, but Twitter ignoring the law and the search warrant — that ought to be big news.

There are still serious news sites and government agencies using Twitter, something that's been feeling more and more problematic to me. It would be nice if today's news started a groundswell, or at least a conversation about that. Twitter has made itself into a forum for nutters, and now this? To anyone who's still on Twitter, I would ask — Why?

Are we going to see more bullshit "Twitter Files" about how the evil government dared to exercise a legal search warrant?

sought the warrant in January 2023.

So after Musk took over. I have no doubt Musk tried to obstruct as much as possible.

Yes, that's generally how electronic record searches go. I don't get why "secret" is bolded, since any of us would be getting the exact same treatment if there was a warrant for our own accounts. This at least is equitable in that it's equally unfair under the laws that these very same people had no problem with when they were in power.

@MicroWave

bwahahahaha!!! That's hilarious!!!

That’s $44,000,350,000 in total after taxes. Would that be cash or credit card?

I wish we saw more stuff like this with corps being slapped around even a little bit where it hurts (their bank account) when they drag their feet or don't comply.

Still not a fan of secret subpoenas/warrants/whatever, but fuck that's funny

Even if they could get in with little effort for them to be able to use the evidence in court it would have to be legally obtained. This isn’t intelligence gathering on a foreign adversary. Trump and his lawyers are going to try every maneuver in the book to get him out of seeing any consequences for his actions, the FBI need to do everything with this case by the book or risk everything getting thrown out on technicalities.

Which Ep was that?

Edit: I completely missed that OP had the episode numbers listed in the post. Thank you poppy@lemm.ee for letting me know.

Omg, what a fucking moron

LOL I’m sorry but this was such a joy to read. Oh, the glorious mental image. Thank you OP.

Don't call Chris Christie a fat pig, that's disrespectful

include the special character

What was our idea with Donald Trump?

For four years and two days .. it was necessary to get to everyone in the brain and grab all possible means of mass perception of reality. Ensure the victory of Donald in the election of the US President. Then create a political alliance between the United States, France, Russia (and a number of other states) and establish a new world order.

And there it is, proof that they not only want to install Trunp as president but also that they want to start the "New World Order" that they've had right wing and Nazi conspiracy theorists scapegoating onto the Jews and "liberals".

It's so clear and obvious that this is what the global right wing is working towards because the messaging is almost exactly the same from right wing/conservative group and from country to country, and from right wing/Nazi/conservative pundits and influencers all across the world. The Global Right Wing want to take control of the world for their purposes, which should scare us all.

when they ask for stuff like this, they already know what they're looking for.

I would guess he needed to see the drafts folder. It was reported that he went through several versions of the call to stand down on J6 before committing to what he sent, and some of them were more approving than others.

DMs to the leaders of the 3%ers, Proud Boys, and other chuds who attempted to kill government officials I'd wager.

Used to, maybe.
