BREAKING: One of the Witnesses at the Trump Bedminster meeting testified they had no memory of Trump displaying Classified Documents to interviewers

[mudwhistle]

What wasn’t factual about the affidavit for the search warrant?

The DoJ thought Trump was hiding documents. Guess what. He was! They found tons of documents he was supposed to have turned over.

No. They claimed they wanted personal letters and a map he used to circle some hurricane.

The whole thing is a confusing mess because they turned it into a confusing mess.

They said they found classified documents that they tried to re-classify after they were returned to the archives.
Why did they need to be reclassified?

The FBI didn't have a warrant to look thru his stuff at Mar-a-Lago.
The NARA already had done that anyway months before. That's where the FBI got the boxes of documents listed above.
From the original document search that NARA did at the first of the year.

The FBI cannot be trusted in this because Biden himself said they were out to get Trump and prevent him from running for POTUS ever again. So you could understand that Trump would want to make sure that the FBI didn't have unfettered access to everything.

Again, NARA never went to Mar a Lago. No one from the government searched Trump’s documents.

You are lying.

No, you're lying,

In January 2022, NARA retrieved 15 boxes of documents, gifts, and other government property from Mar-a-Lago that should have been transferred to NARA at the end of Trump's term.[43][46][47] The boxes included documents from the CIA, the FBI, and the National Security Agency on a variety of topics of national security interest. Archivists and federal agents determined that 184 unique documents (totaling 700 pages)[48] had classification markings, of which 25 documents were marked "top secret", 92 "secret" and 67 "confidential".[49][50] This material included:

• "sensitive national security information",[51][52][47][46] including signals intelligence[53] and the Kim letters[43]
• documents governed by special access programs (SAP), a type of protocol reserved for extremely sensitive U.S. operations conducted abroad, intended to significantly limit access to the information[54][55][56]
• documents marked as "HCS, FISA, ORCON, NOFORN, and SI"[50][57]

Trump attorney Alex Cannon helped to transfer these 15 boxes to NARA.[58] The documents were stored in a sensitive compartmented information facility (SCIF) while DOJ officials considered how to proceed.[46]

 

[Marener]

No, you're lying,

Nowhere in that quote does it say that NARA searched Mar a Lago.

Every source indicates that Trump’s people sent the records to the archives.

National Archives retrieved 15 boxes of Trump White House documents from Mar-a-Lago

The records retrieved from Mar-a-Lago should have been handed over to the National Archives once Trump left office as required by the Presidential Records Act.

The problem with the director at archives is he seems to have a bias against Trump, and he issued a criminal referral to the FBI shortly after receiving the boxes in January 2022. On Feb 9th he went around the normal process and told the FBI that Trump was being a big meanie.....and wouldn't turn over stuff that "he suspected" might still be at Mar-a-Lago.

Again....as Trump lawyers said on numerous occasions, they said all they had to do was ask for stuff and they would try to give it too them. They decided instead to file a criminal referral to the FBI.

They did ask for the stuff and Trump did not give it to them.

To get those 15 boxes, NARA was asking for almost a year.

Trump and his lawyers will say whatever they want, but their actions show their words to be lord.

Your narrative is total BS.

What does the word "RETRIEVED" mean to you?

They asked for documents and they got them. 15 GD boxes of them.
They asked for more documents and told Trump lawyers to fucking "FEDEX" them to the NARA.
The Trump people said that wasn't a good idea because they felt the stuff they were Fedexing might get lost in the mail.
By that time the assholes at archives had already issued a criminal referral to the FBI.
The FBI shows up without a warrant and Trump's lawyer hands over the last batch of documents they wanted Fedex'ed to them.

So what we have here is an administration that was out to get Trump at any cost, and they kept harassing him about his documents.
They planned on raiding his home during the mid-term election period to harass him into not running for POTUS again.
When he put in his paperwork to run again, that pr*ck Garland runs to the cameras and says he's assigning a special council to investigate the president over the Mar-a-Lago raid.

Almost none of this is true.

You forgot the grand jury subpoena too. It’s a bit of a massive detail.

I didn't forget it.
The NARA issued a criminal referral on Feb 9th 2022 to the FBI on some suspicions they had over what the Trump team had.
The House began an investigation around this time.
Then AG Garland told NARA not to share anything with the House investigators, cutting them off from the process.
In April Garland began an investigation and convened a Grand Jury.
In May that jackass issued subpoenas.
Everything was being done like every other president until the NARA started acting like assholes issuing criminal referrals. That's when everything went off the rails:

NARA actions to retrieve presidential records from Mar-a-Lago​

In February 2021, the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA), the federal agency that preserves government records, asked Trump to return presidential documents.[35] By May 2021, NARA realized they were missing the correspondence sent from North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un to Trump. They also knew they were missing other presidential documents like the altered Hurricane Dorian map. NARA contacted Trump's representatives.[36][37] On May 6, NARA emailed Trump's lawyers with the request for their "immediate assistance" to return the Kim letters[38] along with "roughly two dozen" boxes that were in Trump's White House residence during the final days of his presidency and that were sent to Florida, although Cipollone had determined they should have been sent to NARA.[39][40][41] That month, Trump allegedly had some of the boxes brought to the Bedminster Club.[42]

In June 2021, NARA instructed a former lawyer in Trump's White House counsel's office to send them the Kim letters via FedEx.[43] On June 24, boxes in the Mar-a-Lago Lake Room were moved to the storage room.[44]

NARA and Trump's lawyers continued to negotiate.[43] Between November 2021 and January 2022, Trump allegedly had his employees bring boxes out of the storage room and into his residence so he could review their contents.[45][6]

In January 2022, NARA retrieved 15 boxes of documents, gifts, and other government property from Mar-a-Lago that should have been transferred to NARA at the end of Trump's term.[43][46][47] The boxes included documents from the CIA, the FBI, and the National Security Agency on a variety of topics of national security interest. Archivists and federal agents determined that 184 unique documents (totaling 700 pages)[48] had classification markings, of which 25 documents were marked "top secret", 92 "secret" and 67 "confidential".[49][50] This material included:
