'Coordinated Attack by Democrats': Trump Responds to FBI Raid on Mar-a-Lago, Allies Urge Run in 2024

Republicans are up in arms over the FBI's raid of President Trump's home, and they're pressuring the Department of Justice to explain the reasons for the search. They're also calling for investigations into the FBI and the DOJ.
 
The FBI's unprecedented targeting of a former president by his successor's administration is fueling speculation about the 2024 presidential race. Republican leaders say it could lead Trump to announce his candidacy sooner, rather than later.

New details are emerging about the raid. At least 30 federal agents spent more than nine hours searching Trump's Mar-a-Lago home, reportedly removing more than 12 boxes of documents.

In a statement released late Tuesday, Trump called the search a "horrible thing" and "a coordinated attack" by Democrats.

The probe is reportedly part of a federal investigation into whether Trump took classified records from the White House after he left office. Trump had previously cooperated with federal officials, allowing them access to his Mar-a-Lago home in Florida to reclaim documents.

Republican lawmakers are criticizing the Department of Justice for the unprecedented search and seizure event and now demand answers.
