WASHINGTON - Yesterday, Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) issued the following statement regarding the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) raid on the home of Former President Trump in Palm Beach, Florida.
"The raid on former President Trump's home at Mara-a-Lago is unconscionable. The FBI is operating like the wild west by completely upending judicial process and norms in their relentless assault against the former president. Let's not forget that this is the same FBI that classified parents as domestic terrorists and buried countless sexual assault allegations against serial abuser Larry Nassar by women of the USA's Olympic team.
"As an American and elected official, I'm horrified and deeply concerned about the blatant abuse of power by the Biden Department of Justice. I also have so many questions about why the DOJ took such a drastic measure just 91 days before a politically charged midterm election. Today's unprecedented invasion of former President Trump's private residence is an assault on our Constitutional Republic and reeks of political retribution."
