FBI legal search of Mar-A-L ago recovered stolen White House documents
Atlantic report "Retaining classified documents is not even close to the worst thing Trump has done. We are, after all, speaking of a man who twice tried to subvert the democratic process, first by using foreign aid in an attempt to blackmail Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky into falsely implicating then–Democratic rival Joe Biden in a crime, and later by attempting to use a mob to seize power by force after bureaucratic means failed. But those were both overtly political acts, subject to distortions of perception and emphasis, and this one is rather more straightforward. It is illegal to “knowingly” remove “such documents or materials without authority and with the intent to retain such documents or materials at an unauthorized location.”- Adam Serwer
Letter to the Editor published in the Santa Cruz Sentinel in Green Valley California:
Dear Editor: Some right wing extremists that follow the Trumpziism cult are wrongly equating the legally conducted search on the Mar-a-Lago golf club as a raid and the definition of evil.
But, here is the truth: A search warrant, approved by two governmental agencies, Department Of Justice and a federal judge that showed enough evidence to get the warrant, not Biden.
CNN- The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) negotiated with former President Donald Trump throughout 2021, to recover documents that he (illegally) took to Mar-a-Lago while leaving the White House. |
In fact, Trump was served the warrant along with a list of what the FBI was looking to retrieve, per federal law. He could tell us but would rather use the situation to fundraise. They did not raid the home. FBI called Secret Service more than two hours ahead to let them know they would be arriving. Twelve boxes were removed from the basement; this search warrant pertained to classified government property taken when Trump left the White House.
The National Archives have been trying since Trump left office to get items returned. These 12 boxes now add to the 15 boxes retrieved earlier this year.
