The Mar-a-Lago Raid Proves the U.S. Isn’t a Banana Republic

 

A bedrock principle is that no one—not even the president, much less the former president—is above the law, and if they commit crimes, they must answer for them.

 

The problem with Trump’s response to the FBI ‘raid’ at Mar-a-Lago

After the FBI executed a search warrant at Mar-a-Lago, Donald Trump tried to push back with a lengthy defense. It’s amazing just how unpersuasive it was.

Aug. 9, 2022, 8:00 AM EDT

 

The former president did not appear to be pleased. In fact, the Republican issued a 340-word written statement, describing the FBI’s efforts as a “raid,” while arguing, “Nothing like this has ever happened to a president of the United States before.”

 

There’s some truth to that: Other than Richard Nixon, no former presidents have ever had to concern themselves with criminal investigations after leaving office. But former presidents also weren’t accused of improperly taking highly classified documents to a golf resort, either, so here we are.

 

Trump, overwhelmed with apparent self-pity, rambled on for a while, whining about the United States becoming a “third-world” country, pretending his other scandals weren’t real, complaining about Hillary Clinton, and marveling at the fact that FBI agents, looking for documents, even “broke into” his safe.

 

Finally, Donald Trump’s misdeeds are catching up with him

Trump Is Soiling Himself Over Mar-a-Lago Getting “Raided” By FBI, and In Fairness, He Should Be

“They even broke into my safe!”

CLEVELAND, OH - JULY 21: Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump delivers a speech during the evening session on the fourth day of the Republican National Convention on July 21, 2016 at the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, Ohio. Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump received the number of votes needed to secure the party's nomination. An estimated 50,000 people are expected in Cleveland, including hundreds of protesters and members of the media. The four-day Republican National Convention kicked off on July 18.

On Monday night, the FBI executed a search warrant at the home of a former U.S. president; it couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy. No, just f–king with you, of course: it happened to Donald Trump, a man whose epitaph should read “one-man crime spree,” right next to “Four Seasons Total Landscaping” and “They were going to do fruit.” The raid reportedly related to the government documents Trump took with him to Mar-a-Lago when he left the White House, which are said to have included classified, and in some cases “top secret,” materials.

The news was broken by local journalist Peter Schorsch, followed by a press release about the incident from none other than Trump himself, who wrote: “These are dark times for our Nation, as my beautiful home, Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, is currently under siege, raided, and occupied by a large group of FBI agents. Nothing like this has ever happened to a President of the United States before. After working and cooperating with the relevant Government agencies, this announced raided on my home was not necessary or appropriate. It is prosecutorial misconduct, the weaponization of the Justice System, and an attack by the Radial Left Democrats who desperately don’t want me to run for President in 2024, especially based on recent polls, and who will likewise do anything to stop Republicans and Conservatives in the upcoming Midterm Elections. Such an assault could only take place in broken, Third-World Countries, corrupt at a level not seen before. They even broke into my safe! What is the difference between this and Watergate, where operatives broke into the Democrat National Committee? Here, in reverse, Democrats book into the home of the 45th president.” Obviously, the astonishment at the idea that the Feds would search his safe, i.e. a place where people typically hide things of great value—like, perhaps, highly sensitive documents—is the best part. Also, the fact that it happened on the anniversary of the day Richard Nixon announced he would resign.

According to the New York Times’s Maggie Haberman, Trump was not at Mar-a-Lago when the raid took place, but at his golf club Bedminster, NJ, “preparing for a deposition with the New York attorney general in a civil matter related to his finances.” (Here, let’s pause to note the incredible number of legal fronts on which the ex-president appears to be screwed.) As many have noted, the Feds would have had to get permission from a judge to search Mar-a-Lago, and it is a big freaking deal that there was enough evidence, and probable cause of a crime, that a judge gave them the go-ahead. On Twitter, former Obama adviser David Axelrod and others said that it was nearly without question that Attorney General Merrick Garland— known for not wanting to do anything that would politicize the Justice Department—would have had to sign off on the whole thing. The current director of the FBI, Christopher Wray was appointed by Trump, after he fired James Comey. Both the FBI and the Justice Deparemtent declined the Times’ request for comment.

Earlier this year, the National Archives removed from Mar-a-Lago the 15 boxes of documents and other items Trump had taken with him, which the Washington Post reported “indicated there were questions about whether Trump violated the Presidential Records Act, which requires the preservation of memos, letters, notes, emails, faxes and other written communications related to a president’s official duties.” As the Times noted on Monday, the Presidential Records Act, “lacks teeth, but criminal statutes can come into play, especially in the case of classified material.” Criminal codes carry jail time for anyone who “willfully injures or commits any depredation against any property of the United States” and “willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates or destroys” government documents. Speaking of the mutilation of documents: also on Monday, before the news of the search broke, Axios published photos of documents Trump is said to have clogged the White House toilets with.

Almost immediately after Trump tweeted that the search had occurred, his allies were insisting it was evidence that the FBI and DOJ were corrupt entities that needed to be gutted. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene said we must “DEFUND THE FBI.” Eric Trump, echoing his dad, claimed only third world countries hold people accountable in such a manner. Donald Trump Jr. hysterically tweeted: “Biden's out of control DOJ is ripping this country apart with how they're openly targeting their political enemies. This is what you see happen in 3rd World Banana Republics!!!” Republican House leader—y’know, the one who vowed to hold Trump accountable in the days following January 6 and then decided to do the opposite—vowed to get revenge on Garland. Perhaps most alarmingly, NBC News reporter Ben Collins noted that “The posts on these pro-Trump forums tonight are as violent as I've seen them since before January 6th. Maybe even moreso.”

As reporter and historian Garrett Graff opined shortly after the news broke: “This is one of the most significant, sensitive, and politically explosive actions the US Justice Department and FBI has ever taken—one of a tiny handful of times it's ever investigated a president. Bottom line: The FBI & DOJ must've known they had the goods.” In other words, there’s a fuck-ton of ketchup dripping down the walls of Mar-a-Lago tonight. And this seems…100% plausible:

Jeffrey Epstein’s Lawyers Want To Seal Documents To Stop The Frolic With The Media

Should information relating to plea negotiations be kept confidential?

By Tamara Tabo

onJanuary 30, 2015 at 6:21 PM

 

Lawyers for Jeffrey Epstein, the billionaire suspected of paying underage girls to give him X-rated massages, are fighting to keep plea negotiations between Epstein’s attorneys and prosecutors out of public view.

 

Epstein is implicated in a suit against federal prosecutors brought by women who claim to have been sexually abused by Epstein when they were minors. The plaintiffs claim that the government failed to fulfill its duty under the Crime Victims’ Rights Act to involve Epstein’s victims in the settlement process. The women contend that the government instead secretly handed a sweetheart deal to the well-connected billionaire and any of his possible co-conspirators. The women are represented by lawyers Brad Edwards and Paul Cassell.

 

Although the defendant in the suit is the U.S. government, not Epstein himself, he moved to intervene in the case in July 2013. Attorneys Roy Black, Jay Lefkowitz, Bruce Reinhart, and Martin Weinberg are also intervenors in the CVRA suit between the alleged victims and federal prosecutors. And, of course, Harvard law professor and former Epstein defense counsel Alan Dershowitz moved to intervene earlier this month, apparently motivated by the allegations by Virginia Roberts (aka “Jane Doe #3”) that Dershowitz had personally participated in some of Epstein’s sexual misconduct.

 

On January 14, U.S. District Judge Kenneth Marra ordered the parties in the case to brief the issue of sealing the correspondence, asking for “adequate justification” for sealing because “public policy favors judicial records being open to the public.”

 

The plaintiffs want the correspondence unsealed. They have already won a related battle to access many of these documents. In 2014, the Eleventh Circuit ruled that the plea negotiations are not privileged from discovery. In the plaintiffs’ motion this week, they argue that the emails and letters between Epstein’s lawyers and federal prosecutors are “central to this lawsuit” and sealing the correspondence “would prevent the public from learning about matters of considerable public concern.”

 

In the brief on behalf of Epstein, attorneys Roy Black and Martin Weinberg argue that their client could be “irreparably harmed” if Judge Marra allows emails and letters between Epstein’s defense counsel and federal prosecutors to enter the public record. On January 26, Epstein’s lawyers responded to Judge Marra’s order by filing Limited Intervenor Jeffrey Epstein’s Response to Order Requesting Justification for Supplemental Protective Order. Although there is a protective confidentiality order already in place, attorneys for Epstein contend that the current order’s coverage is insufficient. Epstein’s counsel complains:

 

“The order followed Epstein’s motion seeking protection from the constant leaks, comments, and inflammatory accusations made by the plaintiffs’ lawyers to the national and international media, as well as to various online outfits of varying reputations. The recent filings, comments, and exclusives granted to gossip reporters show that the frolic with the media has not abated.”

 

They further point out that “the Order does not provide any protection when those documents are converted into exhibits and filed as a public record with the Court.” They fear that Edwards and Cassell will skirt the spirit of the original order by citing to tiny portions of sensitive documents, then “dumping” entire documents into the public record by attaching them as exhibits.

 

Epstein’s lawyers favor a temporary seal order on the plea negotiation correspondence, whereby the documents would stay sealed unless and until Judge Marra ruled on a motion to unseal them individually. Epstein’s lawyers write, “These temporary precautions are appropriate because Mr. Epstein and his legal counsel will be irreparably harmed if what are historically confidential plea negotiations are wrongly filed in the public record, making their way around the world on the internet in minutes, before the court has an opportunity to rule.”

Attorneys Roy Black, Jay Lefkowitz,Bruce Reinhart,and Martin Weinberg are also intervenors in the CVRA suit between the alleged victims and federal prosecutors. And, of course, Harvard law professor and former Epstein defense counsel Alan Dershowitz

 

Epstein’s lawyers further insist that there is a longstanding tradition in the criminal justice system to keep plea negotiations confidential. They argue that defense attorney would be unable to fulfill their duties to their clients “if they fear that they cannot communicate with prosecutors openly and frankly, without tempering or censoring their plea/settlement communications to avoid making statements that could later come back to haunt their clients in TMZ, the National Enquirer or the grocery store tabloids.”

 

With allegations as salacious as those found in documents already in the public record, one shudders to think what information Epstein may be fighting to keep out of view. If the public is after sordid — but unproven — details about Epstein’s past, the Palm Beach Police Department’s probable cause affidavit provides more than enough fodder.

 

I’ve been dutifully checking PACER for updates in the case. I’m sure other writers and journalists covering the story have been as well. Still, a lot of the language Epstein’s lawyers use to describe the spread of information via the internet and sundry media sounds vaguely histrionic.

 

Still, Epstein’s lawyers may have the better argument in the end on this issue. The chilling effect on future plea negotiations provides a strong public policy argument.

 

As a general matter, plea negotiations ought to be kept confidential, in order to inspire candor. Our justice system leans heavily on plea deals to resolve criminal cases. To agree on a deal, prosecutors and defense attorneys must haggle. Their haggling won’t be as effective if they can’t speak freely. If the specter of future publicity haunts defense counsel’s negotiations with prosecutors, defense attorneys might be less forthcoming.

 

Moreover, defense attorneys may be required to be less chatty during negotiations with prosecutors since they owe a duty to their clients not to say things that might later harm their clients.

 

Furthermore, it would be wrong to expect defense lawyers to be responsible for whether the prosecutors have involved victims as the CVRA requires. Later revealing the negotiations in effect punishes the defense for the prosecution’s failure to meet its legal obligations.

 

Courts can limit disclosure of plea negotiations, while still maintaining that they are not privileged.

 

Of course, a CVRA suit such as this one might be seriously crippled by the inability to introduce evidence of the wrangling between defense counsel and prosecutors. If the evidence is worth introducing for the court’s consideration, there is a strong presumption that the public ought to have access to it. But the temporary seal order favored by Epstein doesn’t preclude those documents from entering the public record. Rather, it only delays it, pending a determination by the Court.

 

Sure, this process would add time and hassle to the proceedings. But the gossip media, the internet, and the public are patient. We’ll wait.

Prince Andrew named in sex quiz but billionaire pervert's girl aides refuse to say if they even know royal

Updated: 05:41 EDT, 7 March 2011

 

Details of the extraordinary child-sex quiz emerged in a dossier of sworn statements held by lawyers in West Palm Beach acting for some of the 14 girls who have lodged compensation claims against Epstein.

 

Also named as a child abuser in the documents is Prince Andrew’s close friend Ghislaine Maxwell, socialite daughter of disgraced publishing tycoon Robert Maxwell.

 

Miss Kellen and Miss Marcinkova, both in their 20s, were given immunity from prosecution in the controversial deal fixed by Epstein when he was jailed for 18 months for soliciting prostitution from under-age girls.

 

Miss Kellen, named as the chief fixerwho brought Epstein a succession of under-age girls for sex, was first to be quizzed on oath by lawyer Spencer Kuvin at the offices of Epstein’s attorney Jack Goldberger in West Palm Beach.

 

-Records of the deposition revealher own lawyer Bruce Reinhartadvised her to exercise her constitutional right to stay silent so as not to incriminate herself.

 

Even today both women remain fiercely loyal to Epstein, who bankrolled their luxury lifestyles. Each visited him dozens of times in jail.

 

Last week U.S. legal documents emerged which detailed how Prince Andrew had regular massages at Epstein’s Florida house ten years ago.

 

Epstein’s former butler Juan Alessi disclosed that he daily set up massage tables for the prince during an extended stay.
