          In order to obtain a valid search warrant, the FBI must have probable cause. If the FBI believes there is probable cause they will present it to a magistrate (a judge). The judge will then decide if there is sufficient information to issue a search warrant.

          Checks and balances.

              You didn’t have a link prior and Wikipedia isn’t a source to be trusted.

              It doesn’t matter because a judge signs off any raid. You are welcome to file a grievance with that judge if you don’t like their decisions.

                “Wikipedia isn’t a source to be trusted” is such a dipshit thing to say lmao. Your high school teacher, if you didn’t drop out before then, only told you that so you wouldn’t cite Wikipedia specifically as a source. Wikipedia itself is sourced and reviewed like any other encyclopedia, digital or not.

      Then why is the FBI hunting like 01/06 animals like a fucking Terminator? Still nailing those fuckers, seems like one every day, even after nearly 2-years.

          Maybe poor in the grand scheme of things, but these were mostly middle-middle-class and higher income people.

          It’s like the 9/11 hijackers. Middle-class Saudis almost every single one.

          In neither case were they uneducated, backwoods hicks. These were mostly people with a life, and much to lose, and pulled this shit anyway. And I find that far more horrifying than a buncha poor, angry dirt farmers, because poor stupid people can’t much traction in this world.

        That’s the DOJ prosecuting them. Are the FBI still finding them? I thought since there’s video of almost all of em, its mostly about using the courts to put them in prison and make deals to get info on those who couldn’t be identified.
