What’s Happening:
Americans are still demanding answers to the FBI’s shocking raid of Mar-a-Largo. The media claims they are going after Trump for holding onto “classified” documents.
Numerous experts have weighed in on this issue. Many have questioned if the FBI even has a case, given this is a former president. And now, Trump is making a bold claim that could undermine the Fed’s agenda.
From Fox News:
Former President Donald Trump slammed the Department of Justice following the agency’s opposition to his request for a “special master” to review documents seized from his Mar-a-Lago estate, claiming he had already “declassified” the materials…
In a flurry of Truth Social posts Wednesday morning, Trump said it was “terrible” that 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. Thought they wanted them kept Secret? Lucky I Declassified!”
Okay, so here is what we know. Trump’s legal team demanded a “special master” to review the documents taken by the FBI.
While a federal judge is preparing to do this, the DOJ is resisting. They are knocking back claiming Trump “lacks standing” over these documents.
They even claimed Trump tried to “obstruct” the government’s investigation. This might not be true, since Trump’s legal team said they have long cooperated with the government regarding these documents.
Trump responded to the DOJ’s claims, saying it was the FBI that “haphazardly” threw documents all over the floor and took pictures.
He also questioned the agency’s claims to secrecy, when they were the ones who released those photos to the public.
Trump ended his response by saying he declassified the documents.
It’s unclear how Trump can verify this claim as of yet. But he might be on to the truth, considering what the FBI did.
Agents took pictures of these supposed classified documents and released them to the public. You can see them right now on nearly every MSM website.
So, why would they share photos of secret documents? Unless, of course, Trump did declassify them.
Many have speculated on the FBI’s true motives. Experts were shocked to see them raid a former president’s home.
Others suspect they were trying to either plant evidence or find something on Trump–something Democrats have long tried to do through numerous lawsuits and cases.
But, for now, we’ll have to wait and see what happens next.
Key Takeaways:
- The DOJ is resisting a special master, claiming the documents were concealed.
- Trump responded by saying he declassified the documents.
- The FBI could have undermined their claims by taking photos of the docs and releasing them to the public.
