Trump Had More Than 300 Classified Documents at Mar-a-Lago
DYNUZ ^ | August 22, 2022

The initial batch of documents retrieved by the National Archives from former President Donald J. Trump in January included more than 150 marked as classified, a number that ignited intense concern at the Justice Department and helped trigger the criminal investigation that led F.B.I. agents to swoop into Mar-a-Lago this month seeking to recover more, multiple people briefed on the matter said.

In total, the government has recovered more than 300 documents with classified markings from Mr. Trump since he left office, the people said: that first batch of documents returned in January, another set provided by Mr. Trump’s aides to the Justice Department in June and the material seized by the F.B.I. in the search this month.

This sounds like a desperate Deep State leak to cover up the fact that the FBI was really searching for Crossfire Hurricane documents. Of course, President Trump had the authority to DECLASSIFY the documents.

Just 300? That doesn’t sound like much really. This is the government, after all.

Drib, drib, drib, drib...

They’ll try this in the press as much as they possibly can.

I wonder if they found the Russian collusion proof they were
looking for in 2016.

LMAO

Steam emitting from ears...

Liars.

Nothing “caused” by Trump “made” them do their home invasion armed attack.

It was banana republic political motivated hate from the Left.

They were unclassified by him. His prerogative. He DID have very few friends in the White House, who knows what they pulled.

BFD. Trump could have declassified EVERYTHING as president. The Biden FBI goons are nothing but goose-stepping Nazis, and they know it.

Back in the day classification was done rather sparingly. Now days it is overdone because in government having a high clearance is a resume builder. When I had the opportunity I ditched my TS SCI because it was more hassle than it was worth.

The President IS the "National Command Authority" (NCA)!

While in office, the NCA has complete authority to declassify as he pleases.

The notion that he's required to follow up and re-portion mark the documents is complete nonsense.

Thus, referring to the material found at his home as "Classified Documents" demonstrates complete ignorance.

On June 3, Jay Bratt, the chief of the counterespionage section of the national security division of the Justice Department, went to Mar-a-Lago to meet with two of Mr. Trump’s lawyers, Evan Corcoran and Christina Bobb, and retrieve any remaining classified material to satisfy the subpoena. Mr. Corcoran went through the boxes himself to identify classified material beforehand, according to two people familiar with his efforts.

Right. So they went through the material in June and took what they wanted. Yet somehow classified material mysteriously appeared sometime after that to warrant an FBI raid in August?

Mrs. Bill Clinton “gave” more than that to the Russians via neglect. Trump kept what he had in a safe!
