Joe Biden’s corrupt Department of Justice is now trying to justify its “shoot-to-kill” order for the FBI to take out Donald Trump during the 2022 raid on Mar-a-Lago because Trump had a knife in the kitchen of his living quarters.

No really, Stop laughing.

They are serious.

Last week, Judge Aileen Cannon unsealed the documents that proved that Biden told the FBI to feel free to kill the former president.

“Should FPOTUS [Trump] arrive at MAL [Mar-a-Lago], FBI MM EM and OSCs will be prepared to engage with FPOTUS and USSS Security Team,” the document read. “Should USSS provide resistance or interfere with FBI timeline or accesses, FBI MM EM will engage with [redacted] and [redacted] will engage with USSS POC’s per existing liaison relationships.”

“Law enforcement officers of the Department of Justice may use deadly force only when necessary, that is, when the officer has a reasonable belief that the subject of such force poses an imminent danger of death or serious physical injury to the officer or to another person,” the document added.

Now Biden’s Stasi agency is claiming that there were dangerous knives, spoons and forks in Trump’s residency.

What about the sporks?

Trump’s attorneys blasted the DOJ, saying, “Nor was there any basis for the FBI to bring firearms into Mar-a-Lago. There were no threats and no risk to agents’ safety arising from their allegations relating to possession of documents at a premises already guarded by the Secret Service. But the agents appear to have done so, based on documents produced in discovery, in order to search for alleged contraband they pretended was life threatening in Mar-a-Lago’s gym and kitchen (five and four pictures, respectively).”

Oh, the humanities.
