On “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” Lara Trump criticized the corrupt FBI for raiding the Mar-a-Lago residence of the late President Donald Trump.
President Donald Trump’s daughter-in-law Lara Trump said that the former President was “shocked” to learn the FBI was raiding his private residence in Florida on Monday.
The former president made an early Monday evening announced that the FBI was searching his upscale Palm Beach resort.
“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,” Trump wrote. “Nothing like this has ever happened to a President of the United States before.”
According to reports, the National Archives ordered the raid in relation to the 15 boxes Trump took with him when he vacated the White House. It was claimed that several of the boxes held “classified” data.
Many of the former president’s followers and hosts on all networks as well as guests on Cable news voiced their shock when the news first emerged, with conservative lawmaker demands for answers.
Lara Trump discussed her father-in-reaction law to the news on Fox News on Monday night.
She was questioned by network anchor Will Cain, who was filling in for Tucker Carlson, about whether she had spoken to the former president and his family.
“I have spoken to my father-in-law,” Lara Trump responded, “ I got to tell you, you know, he’s as shocked as anybody. I think for someone and anyone quite frankly who loves this country and believes in America, this should shake you to your core. What has happened today, this is a very clear demarcation in the history of America. Never before, as many of or guests have already talked about. Will, have we seen something like this happen, where an unannounced raid by the FBI is conducted on a former president of the United States. Think about this, if this is what they’re able to do to the former president of the United States, think about they could do to you, to anybody in America,”
“ Everybody’s cooperating. Everybody from my father-in-law’s team has been cooperating with the FBI with any authority that asks for anything up until now. There was no need to make such a big scene, to do something this insane, quite frankly, to a former president.” She added, “I think. Everybody clearly knows what’s going on here. This is about weaponizing the justice system, as it has been so many times in the past against somebody who you politically do not like. They detest Donald Trump, not just on the Democrats’ side but the general establishment, because he’s not one of them because he doesn’t play their game. They’re terrified he’ll announce he’s running for president in 2024, and this is a convenient way to throw a little more mud on Donald Trump as though they haven’t already done enough.”
