Everyone knew they did? It was reported. What people were saying was that it was the FBI who requested the search and that FBI director, and another Judge who approved it, were Trump appointees.

The fact this has now been confirmed that it was, this could be problematic for the Biden Administration, that Biden has potentially weaponised the Justice Dept against a political opponent. It’s equivalent to Boris Johnson ordering the Home Office, who will then order the met police to raid the home of Keir Starmer.
No, it isn't.

It's the equivalent to the British Attorney General approving a request from the head of the Met Police to raid the home of Keir Starmer and having that request also approved by a High Court Judge.

Biden didn't order the FBI to conduct the search. The FBI wanted the search. Biden didn't approve the search. The U.S Attorney General did.
