Attorney General Merrick Garland held a short press conference today to discuss the FBI's search of Mar-a-Lago, Trump's Florida residence. Since the search was conducted, right-wing lawmakers and their media sycophants have been screaming bloody murder, claiming it was done for political purposes by a deep state conspiracy (with no proof) and attacking the entire FBI as political operatives out to get the ex-president. "Just now the Justice Department has filed a motion in the southern district of Florida to unseal a search warrant and property receipt relating to a court-approved search that the FBI conducted earlier this week," Garland announced.

OAN is not really all that different from Fox, where Jesse Watters gleefully spreads manure on the air.
