Magistrate judge, Catherine Salinas, approved the seizure. Based on unfounded allegation by an FBI agent.

While FBI Special Agent Hugh Evans asserted that the alleged departures from protocol were sufficient to establish probable cause that two federal laws were broken, he attributed those crimes to “unknown persons.”

Evans’ affidavits confirm that the criminal investigation originated with a referral from Kurt Olsen, an ally in President Donald Trump’s quest to subvert the 2020 election, who was named by Trump in October as the White House’s “director of election security and integrity.”


So bottom line - they can do just about anything they want - our justice system is so partisan these days that it is basically meaningless. 🤬
