The (Heavily Redacted) Trump Search Warrant Affidavit Has Been Released

• https://www.zerohedge.com, by Techno Fog

As expected, the judge allowed the Government to heavily redact the affidavit before it went public. In yesterday's order, the judge found that parts of the affidavit must remain sealed because:

disclosure would reveal (1) the identities of witnesses, law enforcement agents, and uncharged parties, (2) the investigation's strategy, direction, scope, sources, and methods, and (3) grand jury information protected by Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 6(e).

This aligns with the DOJ representations that (1) information in the affidavit "could be used to identify many, if not all" of the witnesses; (2) the affidavit would provide a "roadmap for anyone intent on obstructive the investigation."

Affidavit allegations:

Classified materials and "evidence of obstruction"

Other thoughts.

Some aren't so convinced. According to The Wall Street Journal, Kash Patel, one of the foremost experts on Russiagate, has stated he didn't know what was in the boxes taken from Mar-A-Lago by the FBI. The New York Times also has doubts about whether the documents included Russiagate materials:

None of those documents or any other materials pertaining to the Russia investigation were believed to be in the cache of documents recovered by the F.B.I. during the search of Mar-a-Lago, according to a person with knowledge of the situation.
