It’s “grand political theater at its worst,” the source told The Post. “They could have asked his lawyer for any of these things. Instead, they staged a so-called raid so they can leak it to the media and use it for obvious political reasons.”

Coplan was not provided any reason for the incident, but the source said they expect it is political retribution since Polymarket accurately predicted Trump’s win – not traditional polls.

The government is likely trying to accuse Polymarket of market manipulation and rigging its polls in favor of Trump, the source said.

Right, because everyone's out to get the goofball nobody's ever heard of. 🙄 Traditional polls? The fuck's that even supposed to mean? And "rigging its polls in favor of Trump" as if some fringe betting site would have had any impact whatsoever on actual election polls?

If this is even real, and if they "predicted" the outcome accurately then they're not being picked on, they're being investigated to find out if there was some chicanery going on in the real polls that this douchecanoe found out about and exploited. Which would be illegal af from multiple angles.

See there’s this pesky little difference between asking his attorney for his phone and seizing it in a raid.

This way, he didn’t have time to delete his messages and emails.

It’s almost like the FBI is doing its job correctly.

That was trump's DoJ and his lackey as the head of the investigation.
