Did he have private tweets? Public ones are out there for all to read.

This is on the verge of an all out war.

Sarcasm? Because nothing could be further from the truth. Our side has surrendered, or at least they're will to let others take the brunt of the initial suffering. Talk to the J6 political prisoners. My tagline, which I submitted in January 2021, becomes more true with each passing day.

Weren't all of Trump's tweets archived in a file that people could access and even download? Doing a search I found this from 2 1/2 years ago:

National Archives to Make All of Donald Trump's Tweets Publicly Available

....which has a link to this:

Donald J. Trump Presidential Library

So why did this dumb ass need a warrant for Trump's tweets?

Have they checked his bowel movements yet? Gotta be some incrimination there.
Must be saving that as a last ditch charge.

"...and not a word about the Biden crime family in the news. This is on the verge of an all out war."

Joe's heading to Vietnam "shortly," according to the news today. Which family members will be heading there with him? The Biden Administration has been "contributing to advancing Vietnam energy sector. From over two years ago:

United States Contributes to Advancing Vietnam’s Energy Sector

Energy...Vietnam...Energy...Ukraine...Burisma...

Joe's got to make sure he continues to get his 10%, or to ensure that any paperwork connecting Vienam's energy sector to the Biden crime family, is destroyed.

And they took items that weren’t even listed on the warrant.

Bought a dog whistle when I was 10 years old thinking it would be really cool to blow it and have all the neighborhood dogs come running up to me wagging their tails.

But no matter how hard I blew the damn whistle, not a single dog ever appeared. Very sad.

Moral of the story: Dog whistles are bogus.

His really hard-hitting billboards were back in early 2011.

Maybe they’re harvesting “ co conspirators” from among followers

The dog must be trained to respond to a whistle that can’t be heard by human ears.

You made an incorrect assumption that all dogs come in response to the whistle

The Constitution requires PROBABLE CAUSE a crime has been committed to issue a valid search warrant.

WHERE IS THE PROBABLE CAUSE of a crime here?

If none, add yet another illegality to this plethora of illegal government actions against Trump.

Hope his team is taking good notes.

WHY SECRET? That is plain wrong. Was there some life-threatening circumstance that required a secret warrant and search? On Twitter?!

"Maybe they’re harvesting “ co conspirators” from among followers"

Then it makes me wish I had subscribed to Twitter all those years ago. I would have ended up on their list, especially for having the nerve to say the 2020 election was stolen.

Well, I was 10.

Back to the claim that Trump is sending stupid “dog whistles”, I don’t think MAGA is trained to respond to something no one can hear.

No enforcement of responsibility for the person/s who read Twitter or FB and react.

Free speech will be banned because people are so easily convinced to do what they're told on social media.

Teaching coping skills not allowed, just sermons about bullies. Special rooms. Special pet therapy.

This was a forgone conclusion when the country concluded retarded should not be spoken.

They are looking for the secret DMs that THEY all have on their Twitter accounts. Y’know, how they arrange for the kidnapping and rape of little kids and then pass around the pictures to each other? Those DM s that all the FIBs were put in place to protect? These people are so corrupt and sick.

I read they also wanted to determine where tweet originated (jurisdictional reasons) and who actually sent specific tweet, as it is speculated some tweets sent from Trump’s account were not physically sent by Trump.

And of course, access to DMs were probably wanted as well.

“Twitter was fined $350,000 because it delayed producing the records sought under the search”

So can Trump subpoena all communications between the Special Council’s office and Twitter for his defense?

I think they are after his DMs, which likely include private messages to trusted friends and advisors. It’s an end-around to his personal information.
