Now, here’s a surprise.
One week after the midterms, The Washington Post quietly reported that, well, remember those classified documents former President Donald Trump allegedly took to his home in the Mar-a-Lago Club, the ones that prompted the FBI to raid his home? Yeah, he wasn’t doing anything “nefarious” with them.
No nuke-selling to the Saudis, apparently! How about that? Huh. Well, carry on, WaPo readers! Thanks for voting Democrat!
In the Monday report, the Post noted that investigators “believe former president Donald Trump’s motive for allegedly taking and keeping classified documents was largely his ego and a desire to hold on to the materials as trophies or mementos.”
“As part of the investigation, federal authorities reviewed the classified documents that were recovered from Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home and private club, looking to see if the types of information contained in them pointed to any kind of pattern or similarities, according to these people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation.
“That review has not found any apparent business advantage to the types of classified information in Trump’s possession, these people said. FBI interviews with witnesses so far, they said, also do not point to any nefarious effort by Trump to leverage, sell or use the government secrets,” the piece continued.
“Instead, the former president seemed motivated by a more basic desire not to give up what he believed was his property, these people said.”

Is WaPo considered to be the mouthpiece of the CIA, the FBI or DoD - I can never keep it straight.

Wonder how the judge feels now,
knowing the FBI bent him over the
bench and had their way with him.
G what a shock he was retaining what he believed to be rightfully his property under the law. That certainly deserves a long prison sentence./s
I dream of a day when someone will put together a book covering the first quarter of the 21st century with each Left-hand page telling “Here’s what the government/media was saying ...” and each right-hand page telling “Here’s what the government/media knew to be the truth at the time ...”
And I don’t know how you could neatly have a “third page” but I’d like to see “Here’s what the crazy conspiracy theory people were claiming ...”
Because it’s pretty clear to me that the Conspiracy Theorists are the only ones who have any idea about what’s really going on.
Can they prove the Docs were still classified at the time of the B&E?
The FBI is a rogue organization.
WaPO = Amazon = AWS = CIA
Are all of these entities and people completely immune from all forms of recourse on the part of Trump?
Trump should OWN the houses and property of the Judge and all involved with the decision to do this.
good idea ... you can do it in a word processor ... convert it to pdf ... send it out ... watch it go viral ...
He probably enjoyed it.
The people who were on to this the whole time don’t live in a fantasy bubble where most people live and everything is rosy and will work out in the end. We realize that evil never sleeps and we can never slack off from our duties.
Where do liberal idiots think the stuff in Presidential Libraries come ftom?
Still waiting on those 3 million pages Obama hauled off without so much as a bit of notice from the archives, DoJ, MSM, etc.
The timing of the RvW overturn.
Yes, like LBJ’s enormous private archive which he and he alone controlled. In his case NARS was happy to provide professional help. NARS made it clear to DJT that they would set up the controls on any archive he might want to have.
