According to reports from The Miami Herald, the Florida judge who signed off on the search warrant that allowed FBI agents to raid former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago home on Monday once represented Jeffrey Epstein's accomplices.

The news organization detailed that Judge Bruce Reinhart had quit his job as a US attorney in 2008 to go work for the disgraced financier. Reinhart represented his plane pilots, his assistant and many others who had ties to Epstein. The Florida judge donated to the campaign of former President Barack Obama as well as to opponents of then-candidate Trump during the 2016 election.

The Monday raid by the DOJ is being labeled as highly political. Many speculated federal agents are looking for something beyond classified White House documents. 

A number of Republicans slammed the FBI by saying its actions are motivated by a political bias. They pointed out that the bureau has protected Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden from congressional scrutiny.
