Classified documents in Trump bedroom

[VitaMan]

Documents marked “classified” were found in Mr Trump’s bedroom, according to a newly unsealed opinion by US District Judge Beryl Howell.


The 87-page document found prosecutors had presented compelling evidence that the former president had knowingly stashed national security documents in his home and then tried to conceal them when the DOJ tried to retrieve them.


In her opinion, Judge Howell wrote: “Notably, no excuse is provided as to how the former president could miss the classified-marked documents found in his own bedroom at Mar-a-Lago.”



Trump claimed that FBI agents had been authorized to use “deadly force” during the “unconstitutional” raid of his Florida property.

An Opinion, lol. This is getting too comical now.

A judges opinion......based on the evidence presented.


Way better than the Trump conspiracy theorists......who never present any evidence at all

You should read the article in politico. I've included a number of relevant passages but there is a lot more included.

Lawyers found classified docs in Trump’s bedroom 4 months after Mar-a-Lago search

The revelation was contained in a newly unsealed opinion that a federal judge issued in 2023.

That revelation was among several cited by U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell in a newly unsealed 2023 opinion that found prosecutors had presented compelling evidence that Trump knowingly stashed national security documents in his home and then tried to conceal them when the Justice Department tried to retrieve them.

In her 87-page opinion, Howell said the likelihood that Trump committed crimes was a basis to permit special counsel Jack Smith to question the former president’s attorney Evan Corcoran on topics that would normally be shielded by attorney-client privilege. Prosecutors, Howell said, had demonstrated that Trump knew Corcoran had been tasked in June 2022 with informing the government that all classified materials had been returned, “a representation that the former president … knew to be wrong.”

Throughout the opinion, Howell — who was chief judge of the Washington, D.C. federal district court at the time — described with varying degrees of incredulity how four documents with classification markings could have been discovered in Trump’s private quarters months after prosecutors had subpoenaed them and the FBI conducted its own exhaustive search of the property.

“Notably, no excuse is provided as to how the former president could miss the classified-marked documents found in his own bedroom at Mar-a-Lago,” Howell, an Obama appointee, wrote.

I don't think it really matters anymore. This country has already been compromised. I just think it's funny how Trump can be investigated for something new every week.

So fucking what. Trump was POTUS. He could declassify docs. Biden on the other hand was not POTUS at the time he stole classified docs. Oh wa8t, Biden kept his in the garage next to his vette so they were much more secure. You fucking morons only see a crime if Trump is accused but nothing when someone on the left does the same shit or worse.

This is some funny shit here. How could Trump miss Documents marked Classified? I would like to know how the FBI missed them during their supposedly exhaustive search of Mar-a-Lago. Did they intentionally miss them so they could come back with some bullshit at a later date or did they miss them because they are a band of incompetent boobs, lol.

... A couple o' points for you to ponder - er,.. pondour:

We conservatives choose NOT to believe any of the constant
bullshit claims if the weaponised DOJ/FBI - and this
Judge's "opinion"...

Though, if true - means very little - as Trump has explained
that He DECLASSIFIED what He had.

And there's also the belief that the Mar-a-Lago raiders
probably PLANTED things.

... Just sayin'

Not surprising, straight from the Trump playbook.


If things don't go your way, attack the messenger and the system as a witch hunt. Because the law could not have been broken by Donald. He is never wrong, and never admits mistakes.


If that doesn't work, there is always........the Conspiracy theories to create, fall back on, and just wait.

We are nearing a point of no return, no discussion, no honest debate. Apparently we’ve got one poster who speaks for all conservatives. Another who wants only to provoke. Another who is blind as a bat. And a couple more who are so angry that they’re likely to turn into The Hulk at any given moment.

Time to change the lineup or this forum is dead.

Just read the brilliant shit above!

None are so blind as those who refuse to see.

THIS IS IT!!! THEY FINALLY GOT HIM!!!! HE’S GOING DOWN!!!!!!!!


Not.

[eyecu2]

My question is this- how does a raid team hit up Mar-A-Lagoon, and find a hoard of docs, and then Trumps attorneys come back 4 months later to find "more" documents later on- one with a folder to block out some stupid light on Trumps phone by his bed so Shitler can get some sleepy time.

I would think a piece of tape would cover a light and not fall off- but instead- Trumpy decides to cover it with.....


YEP another secret document. When does this shit stop- and why does it continue?

Please. This place hasn't changed in years. It has always been a shit show. The lefties are still left and the right is still right. You are a prime example of this. You troll as much as anybody and very seldom if ever offer any rational conversation. You along with others want to act like you are so above the fray but you are right in the mud with the rest. Your holier than thou attitude is a pathetic attempt to blame all the shit throwing at the conservatives.
