Vol. 6 ·  Chapter 40 — The Boxes · Aug 30 – Sep 5, 2022
Manga panel 1 of 5, Week 377 “The Photograph”: The government answers him in pictures: a photograph of seized papers spread across the floor of his own house, published for the world to judge.
TUESDAY THE HUNTERS PUBLISH A PHOTOGRAPH: HIS PAPERS SPREAD ACROSS HIS OWN FLOOR, FOR THE WORLD TO SEE.
Manga panel 2 of 5, Week 377 “The Photograph”: His breakfast-table verdict on the famous photograph: the agents dumped the papers on the floor themselves and photographed their own mess. Lucky, he adds, that he declassified.
Terrible the way the FBI, during the Raid of Mar-a-Lago, threw documents haphazardly all over the floor (perhaps pretending it was me that did it!), and then started taking pictures of them for the public to see.…
Manga panel 3 of 5, Week 377 “The Photograph”: Saturday night in Pennsylvania, the first stage since the raid: a two-hour speech to an overflow crowd screaming go longer. They love our country, he says, and I love them.

Manga panel 4 of 5, Week 377 “The Photograph”: Monday morning he says the part that stings out loud: they went through his sixteen-year-old son's rooms, and the former First Lady's.

This week in the saga

Tuesday the hunters answer him in pictures — a photograph of his papers spread across his own floor. Wednesday he sneers back over breakfast: they dumped them there themselves, and photographed their own mess. Saturday night in Pennsylvania he gets his first stage since the raid, two hours to an overflow crowd screaming go longer. Monday morning he names what stings most — his son's rooms, the First Lady's — and that same Labor Day a judge grants him a special master over everything the hunters carried out. It is the first shield that holds.
