The Mar-a-Lago FBI raid - initial thoughts

 Not a lot, really, because anything anybody is currently saying is a silly hot take at best and more likely dangerously inflammatory provocation.

So not much from LITD until we have some notion of what the FBI was able to gather from this action.

I will point out that FBI chief Christopher Wray was appointed by Trump and every Republican Senator who voted on his confirmation voted in the affirmative.

But Fox News, Newsmax, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Kari Lake, Donald Trump, Jr., Eric Trump look equal parts childish with their whataboutism (Hunter Biden's laptop! Bengazi!) and reckless in the extreme with their civil war intimations. One also sees a lot of America-is-now-a-banana-republic talk this morning as well.

Deep breath, everybody. Wait until something solid is known so you don't squander your credibility.
