a 32 page probable cause affidavit is absurd.

the redactions are absurd. paragraphs 26-46 at pages 9-16 are entirely reacted (with 2 small exceptions). Then 48-52, then 54-60, 62-76 & 78.

In other words, 100% of the actual information that would allow the public to make an independent determination as to whether probable cause did, in fact, exist, was entirely redacted. Total bullshit. As a matter of Constitutional due process, Trump has the right to see everything in order to challenge the propriety of the warrant, which is impossible for him to do if there are redactions.

You know why a lot of Chinese spies get let off the hook with a slap on the wrist? Because charging and prosecuting them means the government has to reveal sources and methods as a matter of due process. So I guess Trump gets less protection from the US Constitution than Chinese spies.
