What is your guess? Is it a related to the boxes of Classified documents DT took with him when he left the White House? Or related to the NY Procecutor's tax investigation?

First thought is it is related to the classified docs Trump took out of the White House, They've been working on getting those back for a while now. I'd imagine anything related to his tax issues in NY would be stored somewhere in his NY properties. I'm sure we'll find out in a few days what it was all about. Trump's crimes are catching up to him.

Higher probability of the documents he took. It wouldn’t be state. I’m not sure if the IRS criminal investigation division would bring the fbi in over the fraudulent refund he’s been fighting with them about for over 10 yrs.

Someone’s getting desperate since all their allegations so far haven’t amounted to anything.

The FBI executed a search warrant around 6pm ET at Trump’s residence, which appears to have been related to an investigation into Trump unlawfully taking White House documents with him to Mar-a-Lago after his presidency, according to a source familiar with the matter.

“My beautiful home, Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, is currently under siege, raided, and occupied by a large group of FBI agents,” Trump said in a bitter statement lashing out at the raid, adding: “They even broke into my safe!”

Thoughts and prayers with the Trump family tonight in their hour of need.

About time. Let his supporters continue, as long as the feds are able to charge him and he’s found guilty.
