Joe Rogan questioned the motives behind the FBI raid on former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago complex on Tuesday's episode of his popular podcast. .
The FBI recovered 11 sets of classified documents from Trump's estate. This included items intended to be classified and kept in special government facilities.
In a conversation with Seth Dillon, his CEO of right-wing satirical news site The Babylon Bee, Rogan speculated that the investigation may have had a political component. At the same time, he called for Trump to be held accountable if he broke the law.
"So, legally, what have they found? And is he actually in trouble? I think the goal was to knock him out of the 2024 election." By trying him for a crime. What did he do?" asked Logan.
The federal government has not fully explained the nature of the investigation, but reports indicate that FBI agents were looking for nuclear documents at the scene. A Logan producer pointed out that the raids centered on classified documents Trump had in Mar-a-Lago.

"You think you have a problem, don't you?" said Logan. "If it's in an unsecured place, a place that's not safe in terms of government protection, it's not locked up in an archive, it's not in a place that's very difficult to access, so it's a great way to get to the best." You can control access privately.Secret.
"Then the problem is that the safe can be opened, so people can get into it, and people can get the code and copy it. and send it to China," he added.
"Do you think that's a real concern? Or do you want to find something, something you can use to keep him from running again?" Dillon said.
"I think both are correct," Logan replied. "They're just doing it, using the FBI in a way they never would against Hillary Clinton and going after him in a way they never would. So I think Ghislaine Maxwell's client list, then there's the real conversation, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't have a real conversation about whether someone has access
``You are not above the law. added Logan.
Mediaite previously commented on Logan's remarks }.
Attorney General Merrick Garland said last week that he had "personally approved" the search of his home. The warrant was unsealed shortly after the press conference, but Garland declined to provide further details about the investigation.
"I am not a Trump supporter in any way," Logan said. "I had many opportunities to put him on my show, but I turned him down each time."
The comedian also called Trump a "baby boy" in a segment last month. I expressed it as.
