Quick reaction from Congressman Thomas Massie Republican of Kentucky tonight to the raid but still awaiting reaction from others like US Senator Ted Cruz and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis among many others.
The raid happening in DeSantis's state on his watch as Governor and Senator Cruz was questioning FBI Director Christopher Wray just last week some say in a rather tepid way not being as tough as he should be in the questioning.
President Trump issued a statement around 7 pm Eastern US Time regarding the raid speaking of:
"dark times for our nation"
and also saying among other things:
"The lawlessness, political persecution and Witch Hunt must be exposed and stopped"
Trump added:
"I will continue to fight for the Great America People!"
Reaction from Ezra Levant of Rebel News in Canada tonight:
"They are doing to Trump everything they falsely claimed he would do. They are the fascists; they always were."...

The raid occurred at 10 am this morning Eastern US Time according a reporter for "Local 10 News" in Miami tonight that is nine hours before President Trump revealed it with his statement at around 7 pm.
It is being said 15 boxes were taken from President Trump's home.
In his statement today President Trump described the raid as something that did not need to happen ("not necessary or appropriate") since he was cooperating with government agencies over documents from the White House reported to be with him in Mar-a-Lago.
