Last night, the United States Department of Justice publicly released a 36-page court filing, in which DOJ officials revealed that they uncovered a corrupt plot to purposely obstruct their investigation into the discovery of highly-classified government records that Donald Trump stole from the White House and blatantly mishandled when he moved said materials to his Mar-a-Lago estate turned post-presidency home.
And wouldn’t you know… Donald isn’t handling the bombshell news well.
Included in the brutal DOJ court filing, that accuses Trump and his team of intentionally relocating and hiding materials that were subject to their search, were damning photos from the August 8th, 2022, FBI search and seizure warrant raid against the former president’s Palm Beach country club, where he had stashed and hidden the documents and materials he was never supposed to possess. Among those bombshell pictures were photos that showed numerous documents — many of which were clearly marked as “Top Secret” — haphazardly strewn across the floor of the Palm Beach, Florida, mega-mansion.
But, according to the scandal and panic-ridden, one-term, twice-impeached former guy, that haphazard pile of scattered, top-secret documents simply wasn’t his fault — he says the FBI did it.

In one of his latest unhinged posts, in a series of manic “statements” posted to his Truth Social platform since news of the raid broke early this month, Trump took aim specifically at the photos that showed the highly-sensitive material tossed across the Mar-a-Lago floor like toilet paper.
Terrible the way 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!”
Officials note in the new court filing, “Counsel for the former President offered no explanation as to why boxes of government records, including 38 documents with classification markings, remained at the Premises nearly five months after the production of the Fifteen Boxes and nearly one-and-a-half years after the end of the Administration.”
