Would an actual attorney please clear up whether Trump even CAN release

The warrant legally? Is there anything they could possibly charge him with if he did it on his own?

The warrant isn’t going to show much

The offices of Liberal Hank, Cwill and Boosie will for sure have the correct answer for us

It’s the affidavit that’s needed.

I understand that, but I just wonder, with everyone screaming for him to release the warrant himself, whether or why that would be a dumb thing for him to do.

The warrant is going to name -probably in broad brush terms - the items that were being searched for, and what crime said items are in violation of.
Edit : the affidavit is what holds all the bullshite and they won’t get it at this stage in the game

Can't the warrant really say anything?
They could put on warrant that they are looking for the codes or whatever, but when they don't find them, oh well.
I understand not releasing warrant, the big news will be what on affidavit like you said.

He could release it if he wanted to.

The problem is that the affidavit will likely never see the light of day or be so heavily redacted that it wouldn't show anything.

It was filed under seal, but I don’t believe that would preclude him from publishing it, as he was not a party to the proceedings at the time and he was not under a gag order. However, might want to err on the side of caution and let the judge unseal it first, so as not to be possibly hauled into Fed Ct for a contempt charge.

Does he have a right to review the information supplied to the Judge regarding the warrant?

Without knowing the REASON for the seal, I cannot opine as to whether the information should be unsealed, but the lack of objection from DoJ tends to indicate that it WILL be unsealed, which will allow Trump to "release" the info.
Practically, there will be no need for him to do so, because the media outlets seeking to lift the seal will do so before he gets the chance. But (assuming they are selective in what they publish) he will be in a position to fill-in the gaps.

No, he's free to publish it. The search / raid already happened. The thing that gets the warrant, the affidavit, is something only a judge can authorize for a release

Since I’m an actual attorney the answer is he can’t because it’s under seal. If he released it right now he could go to jail which is why idiots like you are promoting this stupid idea.

I’m actually not promoting it. I was asking because so many people are demanding it and I figured there was probably a good reason he isn’t releasing it himself. But I’m happy to provide an outlet for your hostility. Maybe one fewer puppy will get kicked today.

If this is the case, then why did the magestrate give the DOJ 5 days to tell America why they did what they did? Does that mean he already unsealed it before he even made that statement?

It’s hot potato right now with the Magistrate and the DOJ/FBI as to who is going to take the heat.

Wait, a warrant staying under seal AFTER the search and seizure of the items? The FBI or whomever conducts the search has to give the lawyers or leave a copy of the warrant at the scene.
Trump should have been able to publish that warrant Monday night. I mean , I wouldn't and I would follow his strategy of making the government be the one to have to show its cards. But, really, once it happens, as the subject, you are under no obligation to keep it quiet or not show it to people.
Plus, Federal warrants can be vague overall.

I suspect that he thinks he is talking about the probable cause affidavits, which Trump obviously does not even possess.
