Steele was the former chairman of the Republican National Committee.

Steele responded to the news that Trump failed to return classified documents by saying, "Trump failed to return classified documents requested by the National Archives." The judge issued the search warrant. This isn't some rando move by the FBI, so Republicans are trying to be less stupid by calling for de funding the FBI.

The Black Lives Matter movement has been condemned by one of the most controversial figures in congress.

Lauren Boebert of Colorado is a Trump ally and she has called for the FBI's funding to be cut. Some Republicans have compared the US government to Nazi Germany or other dictatorships after the raid.

The FBI raid at Mar-a-Lago was related to an investigation into 15 boxes of documents that Trump took with him from the White House to his Florida resort, according to reports.

In response to Republicans who claim the search is an abuse of power by the Department of Justice, some Democratic lawmakers have noted that the FBI director was appointed by Trump. He was praised as a man of "impeccable credentials" by Trump after he was nominated to head the FBI.
