The president of the United States had his Justice Dept. raid an election office and seize ballots in order to cast doubt on an election he lost. Yet, this is treated by legacy media as just another normal day.

One ICE officer in Minnesota was spotted wearing a patch reading “DEPLORABLE,” a term some devotees of then-candidate Donald Trump adopted in 2016 after Hillary Clinton said half of his supporters belonged in a “basket of deplorables.”

IF this search is concerning the 2020 election, I would be curious how this Administration overcame the "staleness" issue, ie it has to show to the court signing the search warrant that there is probable cause of a crime still, that exists now, at that location, 6 years later?
