@Earl-of-Trumps
From the redacted warrant we now know TRUMP HIMSELF actually WROTE on some of those secret documents.
There is ZERO defending him as his lawyers already know AND those same lawyers are in legal trouble themselves for signing a paper months ago saying there were no more documents than the 15 boxes already given back.
Now we find there were some 26 boxes and maybe 700 secret and higher docs WITH TRUMP's writing on them. So he is going to have a really hard time saying he knew nothing about them.
Funny, if it had been ANY dem POTUS keeping TS and higher docs in HIS basement you would 100% certainty would be screaming TRAITOR shoot him at dawn.

Got anything to say about THAT?

Yes, I have plenty to say about that.

We know for a FACT that the FBI and the Democrat party are in bed and trying everything they can to frame Trump.

'Frame' Trump. Right, dems should just let Trump get away with stealing TS/CSI level docs and selling them to the highest bidder.
Why else would he have such docs?
I get this suspicion if it had been Obama or Clinton taking those docs, you would be screaming to the top of your lungs TRAITOR.

I am sure Trump is fine with all of this. It is benefiting him and he is in no legal peril here. If he was, Hillary would have been charged with a crime.

Look into the Presidential Records Act. You will realize this is a fake scandal that just brings welcome attention to Trump. This is the best thing to happen to him lately. He could have planned it himself it is so good for him. The National Archives Denies Raiding Mar-a-Lago for Trump Documents.

https://www.newsweek.com/national-archives-denies-raiding-mar-lago-trump-documents-1677324

Throughout 2022, NARA has released a series of statements about Trump’s presidential records, starting in January, when it spoke about receiving some “paper records that had been torn up by former President Trump.”

In one of the statements, NARA said Trump’s presidential records “should have been transferred to NARA from the White House at the end of the Trump Administration in January 2021.”

In February, NARA noted that Trump and his representatives had been cooperating with NARA to transfer boxes of records from the Mar-a-Lago property to the National Archives.

https://www.nationandstate.com/2022/08/13/nara-responds-to-trumps-remarks-on-obamas-classified-documents/

It does not appear that Trump broke any laws. This is a fake scandal. A distraction from the Capitol police letting protesters in. Inquiring minds want to know why.

It is known that I, AvJoe, can predict the future,
Trump will Not go to jail
Hillary will not go to, or get PG in, jail
Biden will die.
Libs will win in the end.
Suzianne will decide where we go on our first date.
Trump will not go to jail
Castle Rule in chess will be amended, pieces will be packed
Trump will not go to jail
Sonhouse will find a more concrete cause
Socialism and Soylent Green are in our future

You’re losing it Sonhouse. I’d written in my journal what you’d reported (26 boxes), but my staff says that it was 27. This is crucial, these journals are being codified and marked confidential.
Don’t get us all in trouble!

No, there has been lower. Some Yeminites are doing the homeless bit in the flower garden of my aunt Jess on the Texas border. Can’t speak English and eyeing her medicine cabinet.

New low, wouldn’t you say , Sue. ?

Agents during the Aug. 8 raid at Mar-a-Lago seized 11,179 materials that were not marked classified, the inventory says. They also took 103 documents marked classified, including some marked top secret.

That is less than 1% classified documents and not all of them were marked top secret. Not such a big deal. At least he was not emailing the info around like someone did.

A former president’s rights under the Presidential Records Act trump the statutes the FBI cited to justify the Mar-a-Lago raid.

"Establishes that Presidential records automatically transfer into the legal custody of the Archivist as soon as the President leaves office."

https://www.archives.gov/presidential-libraries/laws/1978-act.html

That obviously was not done, but has that ever been enforced? NARA knew Trump had them and asked for them at some point, but NARA said they didn't call for the raid. So it is all on the FBI to explain why they didn't let NARA handle the issue alone.

That was in February. I would love to know about the August raid
