If President Trump said (1) I’ve declassified all records, and (2) I am declaring these to be personal records, then they are. And if/as they are, then they don’t fall under the subpoena. Therefore, it doesn’t matter what he did with them, or had done with them.

Additionally, did you notice it didn’t say where they were moved from and to? So for example, if they were moved from his club office to the locked storage room - the one where he was requested to add an additional lock - is that what they’re talking about, and is considered obstruction?

I just cannot wait for 2024 to come, so more of the Dems can be removed from their seats, we can get a Republican President, and we can really clean house. These deep-state lifers have just got to be pulled out by the roots and replaced by people that will uphold the rule of law and the US Constitution. Our country cannot survive if the deep state actors continue to substitute their own judgement for the will of the people.

So, where were the boxes moved, and did the FBI ever find them? Were they moved to another room at Mar-a-Lago? To another location? What are the presumed contents of the boxes?

"Obstruction of justice" implies that the boxes were wanted as part of a criminal probe. About what crime? Is it a crime to dispute who has the right to keep the documents? Are they claiming the documents had been used - or were going to be used - in the commission of a crime? Is moving the boxes the alleged crime?

Yes. Where were they moved to, and are they still missing? And what investigation into what crime is supposedly being obstructed?

I once received a subpoena in a court case that eventually involved more than 20,000 documents. I moved lots of files and boxes after I got the subpoena. It was part of the process of responding to the subpoena.

“building an obstruction case against Trump based on his aides moving boxes of his presidential records after the former president received a subpoena...”

How exactly are you supposed to respond to a subpoena of documents without handling them or moving them???

Go back even further. He was served with a subpoena by the “January 6th committee” … more than a year and a half after he was impeached over his alleged role in that fiasco.

The committee has openly admitted that the whole thing was a fraud to begin with.

the fact that they were told to add another lock...and they did...tells me that the government deemed them "secure" and did NOT have a problem with their location.

The question remains...who was the authority who said they were fine and secure at mar a largo.

Trump staffers moved Mar-a-Lago boxes AFTER Trump was issued a subpoena in May.

So what? Did he destroy them? Did he move them to his secrete Russian lair? Did he wipe them with a cloth?

In order this to make sense the FBI would have to prove that the Trump team knew in advance about the upcoming raid and moved the documents to hide them. All search warrants are sealed until they are executed.

This is a big nothing burger. The docs are still available and whether they should be turned over is still in dispute.

Not to mention at the behest of the organization doing the charging.

They are desperate to find something anything to work around the EO so as to justify their Gestapo raid.

They moved them to a closet, or storage? This is a nothingburger, the former President is allowed to take any and all materials he wishes.
