As a result of widespread criticism of Joe Biden and the dishonest Department of Justice from Americans, the FBI raid on President Donald Trump’s private residence is rapidly backfiring.
As the backlash persists, Trump is also breaking fundraising records.
The White House is currently in a frenzy and is rejecting all liability. Additionally, they assert that Biden is unaware of the fact that he was never even told of the FBI raid on a previous president’s private residence.
“No, the president was not briefed, was not aware of it,” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre stated. “No. No one at the White House was given a heads up, no. That did not happen.”
When a different reporter questioned Jean-Pierre about if she was concerned about the perception of the Justice Department searching a former president’s residence, Jean-Pierre remained silent.

Once more, we simply won’t comment on any active investigations from this point forward, Jean-Pierre stated.
After the journalist questioned her on Republicans’ claims that the operation “reeks of politics,” Jean-Pierre once more implied that Biden lacked prior information.
“Look, I’ll say this: the president and the White House learned about this FBI search from public reports. We learned just like the American public did yesterday, and we did not have advance notice of this activity.”
“President Biden has been very clear from before he was elected president and throughout his time in office that the Justice Department conducts its investigation independently.”
The White House’s approach to dealing with this PR catastrophe is straightforward: deny. As many Americans continue to voice their worries about government overreach, the White House continues to ignore them.
