    The morning after the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) conducted a raid on former President Donald J. Trump's Mar-a-Lago home in Florida, former New York Governor Democrat Andrew Cuomo cautioned that the Department of Justice (DOJ) "must immediately explain" its reasoning or face a negative public perception.

    Cuomo - who stepped down in 2021 in disgrace after being accused of sexual harassment by multiple women - has reportedly claimed that his own run-in with the law that led to his resignation was politically motivated. Cuomo - an outspoken Trump critic - now says that the DOJ risks undermining the January 6 Committee's investigation into the president's involvement in the protest that turned into a riot over the results of the 2020 presidential elections without transparency.

    "DOJ must immediately explain the reason for its raid & it must be more than a search for inconsequential archives or it will be viewed as a political tactic and undermine any future credible investigation & legitimacy of January 6 investigations," Cuomo tweeted.

    Cuomo's tweet surprised many conservatives, given his previous anti-Trump rhetoric and leftist political stances.

    "Even @andrewcuomo is disgusted by the communist style tactics used by Joe Biden and his corrupt DOJ," CEO of X Strategies Alex Bruesewitz tweeted.

    "I didn't think it would ever happen but Andrew Cuomo is 100% right here," OutKick the Coverage's Clay Travis added.

    Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) tweeted, "When they've gone too far even for Cuomo...."

    There were dozens of more similar tweets in response to Cuomo, but so far, the DOJ and the FBI have refused to comment.

    Meanwhile, the White House has claimed that it was completely unaware that the execution of the search warrant would occur.

    According to multiple reports, the White House said it learned about the raid on Twitter, at the same time the media did.

    New York Times reporter Jonathan Martin tweeted Monday night, "Senior White House officials found out about the FBI's Mar a Lago raid on Twitter, had no notice, per source familiar."

    CBS News reporter Ed O'Keefe said a top Biden official told him the same thing.

    "No advance knowledge. Some learned from old media some from social media," O'Keefe quoted a senior administration official when asked about the event.

    In a lengthy statement, Trump initially announced the dramatic raid decrying what he characterized as a political move.

    The investigation is reportedly centered around classified material Trump brought to Mar-a-Lago from the White House.

Was it a judicious ploy for Joe Biden's FBI to execute the unprecedented raid of President Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate?

  Yes; the Cheneys despise this former Republican president, and for good reason ... so they say.

  No; never has a former president been treated with this level of vindictive abuse by those temporarily in power.

  Who cares? It's Trump.

Inarguably, the policies of the Democrats in congress and Joe Biden as the Executive is plunging the United States into a recession, if we are not already there; a recession that was completely avoidable. Will abrupt changes in policies occur in time?

  Yes, the Democrats have a bold plan, yet to be revealed, to save us.

  No, there will have to be a complete undoing of the damage done by these Democrats.

  I can't do simple math, so how am I to understand the concept of basic economics.
