in reply to Nonilex • • •#Trump’s #legal team argues the raid was executed w/ “clear intent to engage in political persecution,” acc/to a memo *obtained* by #FauxNews reporter Brooke Singman.
The lawsuit, led by Trump atty Daniel Epstein, alleges that the #DOJ’s actions constituted “tortious conduct” against the fmr president, citing “intrusion upon seclusion, malicious prosecution, & abuse of process.”
[Give me a break.]

in reply to Nonilex • • •Epstein argues that the decisions made by AG #MerrickGarland & #FBI Dir #ChristopherWray were “inconsistent w/ protocols” [nope] & driven by an agenda to “injure President #Trump.” [double nope]
Epstein’s filing also argues: “The FBI’s conduct in the raid… constitutes a severe & unacceptable intrusion that is highly offensive to a reasonable person.” [triple nope]
