DOJ now says Mar A Lago raid a "spectacular backfire", Merrick Garland didn't approve it and based on anonymous source.

Hot Air: Breaking: DOJ source calls raid a 'spectacular backfire,' claims AG Garland didn't approve it.

It seems the DOJ has decided to leak an explanation of their decision to use a search warrant in this case. Newsweek just published an exclusive report based on anonymous DOJ sources which claims the FBI had a confidential source at Mar-a-Lago, one who informed them that Trump was hiding documents and even specified where they could be found.

According to Newsweek’s sources, this was purely about documents sought by the National Archives and “had nothing to do with the January 6 investigation.”

[...] DOJ sources are now feeling a lot of pressure, enough that they are a) trying to explain themselves and b) blaming the “spectacular backfire” on the FBI and the US Attorney while trying to insulate AG Garland from the blowback.

Well, this ploy deflated quickly. What false accusation is next, Libbies? That Trump said he's The Living Christ?
