Introduction – Aug 13, 2022

First of all this website DOES NOT support Donald Trump or his policies. However, the level of vindictiveness aimed at the former president raises questions. Why, for example, haven’t similar investigations been launched to look into highly questionable dealings of Hunter Biden, the drug-addled son of the current president?

Despite making millions from deals from ventures in China and Ukraine, and the disclosure of photos that could be used to blackmail Hunter, the president’s son has largely been left alone.

This is in stark contrast to the current investigations into Donald Trump, which leaves this writer to suspect that the current proceedings against the former president are politically motivated. Ed.

Donald Trump is under investigation for obstruction of justice and violating the Espionage Act, according to the newly unsealed search warrant showing the FBI retrieved 11 sets of classified documents from Mar-a-Lago.

Meanwhile the former president insisted Friday that everything was ‘declassified’ and agents ‘didn’t need to seize anything.’

Some of the documents were marked ‘top secret’ and are meant to be kept in specialized government facilities, according to a copy of the warrant.

The FBI would have needed to prove reasonable suspicion that Trump committed a crime in holding on to the documents – criminal statutes cited in the warrant include espionage, removal of records and obstruction of justice.

Violations of the Espionage Act could include: harboring or concealing persons, gathering, transmitting or losing defense information, gathering or delivering defense information to aid a foreign government, or disclosure of classified information.

The 11 sensitive items included miscellaneous documents labeled ‘secret,’ ‘top secret’ and ‘confidential.’

Agents recovered 20 boxes in total from the Florida estate, with the rest including handwritten notes, photo binders, the grant of clemency of Roger Stone and a file with information on the President of France.

DailyMail.com obtained a copy of the warrant and receipts before it was unsealed by a Florida magistrate judge Friday afternoon.

The warrant gave FBI agents permission to search in Trump’s office and all storage areas on the premises, and states four sets of top secret documents, three sets of secret documents, and three sets of confidential documents were retrieved.

Trump’s attorneys now also claim former President Trump declassified the documents before he left office. A president has the power to declassify any document, but there is a strict federal procedure for doing so.
