Donald Trump ‘had over 300 classified documents at Mar-a-Lago including boxes handed back in January, ones returned in June and those seized by FBI in raid this month’
-
- Donald Trump took 300 documents marked as classified with him to Mar-a-Lago when he left the White House, The New York Times reported on Monday night
- In January the National Archives retrieved 150 of them; some of the remaining 150 were handed over in June, and the rest seized in the August 8 raid
- The scale of the problem is what pushed the Justice Department to take the dramatic and unprecedented step of raiding a former president’s home
- On Monday Trump sued the federal government over the search and asked for a ‘special master’ to oversee the investigation into the wayward documents
This is abuse of our justice system for partisan political purposes. It must stop. The DOJ/FBI are politicized beyond anything I thought possible. One political party should not be allowed to turn our justice and law enforcement system on another for politics.
