Trump Lawyer Claimed In June That No Classified Material Remained At Mar-a-Lago

At least one of former President Trump’s lawyers asserted in a written statement in June that all classified material stored at his Mar-a-Lago residence had been returned to the government, four people with knowledge of the document told the New York Times. The Times’ report comes after FBI agents recovered more classified materials from the resort after executing a search warrant last week.

Continuing criminal conduct. TFG doxxed the FBI agents on the search warrant. FBI was going rogue he said. TFG called FBI a racketeering operation and TFG called FBI corrupt. TFG calling his people to arms. Even if this all a misunderstanding, why would any ex-president who cares about the nation express all of this hate? Especially knowing what his army did to the Capitol?

It is not the lawyer. It is Skanky who lied to the court. Christina Bobb said that she had conducted an extensive investigative search of MaL for sensitive classified nuclear weapons and warheads documents and not found them. It is therefore likely that Skanky, the Family and Organization secreted them carefully or transferred them to their Saudi intelligence clients during that period.

But she didn’t look in the ornate leather box with a note taped to it that read, "Do not open. There are no access-limited nuclear plans, evidence of Saudi blackmail, and J6 involvement inside. You can move along."

Look everyone: Trump has a perfectly valid excuse for all of this-- he can’t read!

How was he supposed to know those documents were classified or top secret or whatever if he can’t read any of those words?

Case dismissed!!

But his MAGAT followers will believe that they are solid gold because they are that stupid.

I realize that this is day 5 in the greatest interdimensional schadenfreude rift since the 1911 Tunguska blast, but I have to leave to go walk before it gets hot here in the Old Pueblo.

Ciao, later.
