Trump, in a statement late Thursday night, called for the "immediate" release of the warrant and property receipt."Not only will I not oppose the release of documents related to the unAmerican, unwarranted, and unnecessary raid and break-in of my home in Palm Beach, Florida, Mar-a-Lago, I am going a step further by ENCOURAGING the immediate release of those documents, even though they have been drawn up by radical left Democrats and possible future political opponents, who have a strong and powerful vested interest in attacking me, much as they have done for the last 6 years," Trump said.DOJ ASKS COURT TO UNSEAL MAR-A-LAGO RAID WARRANT; AG MERRICK GARLAND PERSONALLY SIGNED OFF ON TRUMP SEARCHThe former president touted his current poll numbers saying they "are the strongest they have ever been, fundraising by the Republican Party is breaking all records, and midterm elections are fast approaching.""This unprecedented political weaponization of law enforcement is inappropriate and highly unethical," Trump said.

Justice Department files motion to unseal Mar-a-Lago search warrant
WASHINGTON - Attorney General Merrick Garland has spoken publicly from Washington this afternoon three days after agents searched former president Donald Trump’s Florida estate.Garland also said that he personally approved the search warrant, which was part of an ongoing Justice Department investigation into the discovery of classified White House records recovered from Trump's Mar-a-Lago home in Palm Beach, Florida earlier this year.It was not immediately clear if and when the unsealing request, filed in federal court in Miami, might be granted or when the documents could be released.Now, the Justice Department has asked a court to unseal the search warrant the FBI received before searching the Florida estate of former President Donald Trump, Garland said Thursday.Before Garland's remarks, there had been no high-level comment from the Justice Department since federal agents spent most of the day Monday at Trump’s winter home, reportedly retrieving documents and even opening a safe.The FBI search was part of an investigation into whether the former president took classified records from the White House to his Florida residence. While Republicans have rallied behind Trump, very few facts about the case have been released publicly. RELATED: FBI's search of Trump's Florida estate: Why now?Trump's attorneys have so far declined to release details from the search warrant, and the former president – who was in New York at the time of the search – has suggested on social media that agents could have been planting evidence at his home.Mar-a-Lago, seen from the air.

Steep price drops will bring ‘sanity’ back to housing market in 2023: Desjardins
home price in Canada will decline by nearly 25 per cent by the end of 2023 from the peak reached in February of this year.In its latest residential real estate outlook published on Thursday, Desjardins says it’s expecting a sharp correction in the housing market, adjusting its previous forecast that predicted a 15-per-cent drop in the average home price over that same period.Desjardins says the worsened outlook stems from both weaker housing data and more aggressive monetary policy than previously anticipated.The Bank of Canada raised its key interest rate by a full percentage point in July, pushing up the borrowing rates linked to mortgages, and further increases are expected this year. Here’s how high interest rates are impacting Canada’s condo demand The report also notes housing prices have dropped by more than four per cent in each of the three months that followed February, when the national average home price hit a record $816,720.Despite the adjustment in the forecast, prices are still expected to be above the pre-pandemic level at the end of 2023.Regionally, the report says the largest price corrections are most likely to occur in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island, where prices skyrocketed during the pandemic.“While we don’t want to diminish the difficulties some Canadians are facing, this adjustment is helping to bring some sanity back to Canadian real estate,” the report said.The authors also note that the upcoming economic slowdown will ease inflationary pressures enough for the Bank of Canada to begin reversing interest rate hikes.
