A 'receipt for property' written by FBI agents who searched Donald Trump's Florida home reveals that they carted away 11 sets of classified documents, photographs and other files marked 'top secret' among boxes of items.
The receipt and the search warrant, obtained by DailyMail.com on Friday afternoon, offer further insight into the unprecedented raid on a former president's home.
In all, FBI agents took 27 boxes of documents.
In addition, they list an 'Executive Grant of Clemency: Re Roger Jason Stone Jr' - a former Trump adviser who was pardoned in the last days of Trump's presidency - 'info re: President of France' and a 'handwritten note.'
The list also includes references to a set of documents marked 'Various classified/TS/SCI documents.' In the national security world, the 'TS/SCI' abbreviation generally refers to Top Secret/Sensitive Compartmented Information - available only to those with the highest level of clearance.
Also listed are four sets of 'top secret' documents, three of 'secret' documents and three sets of 'confidential' documents, but the receipt offers no further information about what they contained.
Lawyers for Trump insist that as president he had the power to declassify the documents before leaving office.
For his part, Trump said the FBI did not need to search his property.
'They could have had it anytime they wanted — and that includes long ago. All they had to do was ask,' he said in a statement.
Trump allies have expressed fury at what they say was the heavy handed way the FBI went about the search.
After the former president confirmed the search, the Department of Justice asked a judge in Florida to unseal the warrant.
United States Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart ordered the warrant be released on Friday afternoon, when lawyers for Trump raised no objection.

What dirt does Trump have Macron?
Macron is a real weasel.
I cannot believe how friggen gullible & stupid the people jumping up and down over this are.
How many times will they fall for the same garbage from the same lying sources? There seems to be no limit.
FBI thugettes in elegant drag!!!
Funny this garbage always comes out on Fridays. They own the news cycle for the weekend. They played Trump into releasing all this.
Rumor has it that Macron has a fetish for elderly women.

But they let Mrs. Bill Clinton off the hook when she virtually gave the Russians THOUSANDS of Secret and Top-Secret documents.
So if I have this right, not one illegal thing?
They wanted every document that was created during Trump's four years in office. If they were looking for specific classified documents, why would they have to get a warrant to look for every document, classified or otherwise, that was created during his whole administration? Can you say fishing expedition?
Nothing classified there unless ( as has just been reported several places) Biden secretly classified previously unclassified documents without telling Trump
Where was the FBI and CIA when in 1993, the Clintons sold missile and nuclear technology secrets, along with supercomputers to the Communist Chinese? Where was the FBI when the Clintons and Al Gore took illegal foreign campaign donations from Chinese Nationalist bundlers like Charlie Trie, and Buddhist Temples? Where was the FBI when Al Gore used his office in The Old Executive Building to make campaign donation calls. When questioned about those calls, and told that he had attended a meeting that dealt specifically with the rules about making campaign fund-raising calls, he used the excuse that he had drunk a lot of iced tea, and had to take frequent pees that day. He was never held accountable for his illegal deeds.
Same, it’s a mental disorder. 6+ years of hearing the name Trump has literally made them to the point of insanity and with no civility. I think of liberals as rabid dogs trying to attack a cat on a fence while the cat licks its paws.
That is as good a characterization as I’ve ever heard.
Now with all this show time BS, do they actually think most people care? If driving Trump into the ground is their goal, it can only mean one thing, he’s privy to what is going on in the back room. Top Secret, Atomal, Cosmic, whatever, may still have the cover classification, but by now could be declassified material. I can’t see this being anymore than a fishing trip, and a desperate measure to save their asses in November. Honest folks see what is going on, and they are getting sick of it. I hope this administration gets their asses kick so hard they end up being a colony on the moon.(Even if the price of gas is down to $1.89 by Oct. 31st..
