HEARING ONLY WHAT YOU WANT ...

 So this week, unless you've been in a power outage or under someone else's care, you've probably heard about the FBI raid on Mar-i-Largo - Former President Trump's home in Florida - in which they say several documents were found which were still considered "classified" of varying degrees - including the highest, I guess.

My understanding is that there were several things, questionable things, which happened that might make the average American take a bit more notice ... Like it being an early morning raid (ala Janet Reno and that little boy, in the 1990s) ... such as, them beginning the search without any of the residents, nor their lawyer, being presented with a warrent ... or even the fact that, according to the first lawyer on scene, the warrent was simply shown and not PHYSICALLY GIVEN to her until AFTER the raid took place -- I'm sorry, THAT's unConstitutional!
The biggest question mark deals with what the FBI themselves wanted done -- they wanted the SECURITY CAMERAS in Mar-i-Largo with be TURNED OFF ... they say it was to "protect the identities of the agents involved" ... wait - what??

So, I'm watching "Fox News Sunday" this morning - kinds unusual, I don't usually get to it until later in the week - but I'm listening to the fill-in host(ess) and the panelist from the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) and they are discussing Trump's reaction to Hillary Clinton's taking of the 5th Admendment Right when she was being looked into/at for a simular charge.

Trump took the 5th during his trial looking into his business dealings, and possible tax evasion ... but he said that he NOW UNDERSTOOD WHY IT WAS DONE ... that the 5th didn't just cover HIM but also his family, and those who work for him ... that it isn't even so much WHAT you say but HOW you say it ... ALL THAT is part of the 5th Amendment.
He came right out and said this ... IN PUBLIC speech (I want to say it was in a Tweet)

This of course got TOTALLY ignored!! Didn't even get mentioned ONCE

While its nice to see Fox News employing "liberals"/Democrats/Left-Leaners ... because they are all different, you can have Left-Leaning or even Liberal Republicans, Socialists, Communists, Green Partyists, etc.  ... While I love seeing them have them on a show -- I was shocked to see an ENTIRE panel of the show leaning this way!
Normally, they balance it out, one of each - either a Left/Right leaner, or one Dem/Rep, or one each Liberal/Conservative. 

I'm actually feeling kinda DISAPPOINTED that "Fox News Sunday" has been allowed to take on a "CNN" feel to it ...

I am NO FAN of Trump's ... far from it ... but then, I'm no fan of Biden's or Clinton's either.

I am UNAFFILIATED ... I am a TRUE Independant ...

I preach to not only listen to what IS being said, but paying more attention to what is NOT being said ... because, when it comes to politics - chances are, THAT's where you're gonna get bit in the BUTT.
