The left is very upset because instead of being cast into prison on his recent trip to Washington DC, President Donald J. Trump, a freeman, photographs of Trump boarding a plane loaded with heavy file boxes re-surfaced when Trump was relocating from his Florida family home, Mar-a-Lago, to his Bedminster golf club for the Summer.
The DailyMail.com video from May 2021 showed the former president and Melania decamp to his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, after wintering in Florida after they left the White House.
Disgraced Peter Strzok posted about the May footage, along with what Strzok feels is a ‘smoking gun’:
Type/brand of box look familiar?

Since Joe Biden’s inauguration, the left has been keeping an eye on boxes in the custody of Trump or his team, almost as if they were prepared for a major narrative about boxes of documents.
According to media reports, aides were seen carrying 5-6 boxes of material onto the executive jet, at the time FBI searched Trump’s family Florida home on August 8, after getting a warrant, in what appeared a highly political raid and seizure of Trump’s private property.
During the raid, the FBI searched a storage area and Trump’s office. The feds did not search any additional Trump properties, which is curious.
The boxes and documents are central to a scandal of the politicized FBI raiding the home of a former president.
The National archives, which was behind the motivation for the political raid said it was ‘absolutely necessary that we obtain and account for all presidential records.’
This week, the news has gone viral again, that Trump had loaded boxes onto his jet.
The Daily Mail reported: “A re-surfaced video has emerged of Donald Trump boarding a private jet loaded with file boxes in 2021 – amid rumors he could be indicted for having classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago mansion.
The original report said that ‘aides appear to have carried a number of boxes onto the flight.’
At the time there were tense exchanges between government lawyers and Trump’s representatives at the time over boxes of material from the Trump White House that were taken to his private Florida club.
Posters who were aware of the argument immediately started posting about Trump stealing boxes of documents, but few in the public were aware of the situation. ”
The article went on:
The video has now resurfaced in light of the DOJ’s investigation, as well as due to its timing – just three days after the feds contacted Trump’s representative to request the return of government materials.
The clip, taken at the airport near Trump’s club in West Palm Beach, Florida, first shows the former president boarding a small private jet.
He is immediately followed by a man carrying what looks like a large box of the kind used for documents.
He is in turn followed by a woman carrying another large box with two hands. She appears to refuse a man’s offer of help and loads it onto the plane.
Then a man carries another box, followed by a man carrying roller luggage.
He is followed by a man carrying a tall white box. Another man carries what could be two white boxes stacked on top of each other.
The FBI obtained a warrant to search Mar-a-Lago to search for ‘documents and records constituting evidence, contraband, fruits of crime, or other items illegally possessed in violation’ of statutes dealing with national security information and government records.
The FBI was required to show probable cause in order to get a judge to sign off on the warrant. The feds did not obtain a warrant to search Bedminster or other Trump properties.
On Saturday morning, anti-Trump PAC Meidas Touch reposted the video, writing: ‘Video from May 8, 2021 shows Trump boarding a jet from Florida to Bedminster with multiple boxes bearing a strong resemblance to boxes of top secret materials found at Mar-a-Lago. On May 6, NARA had contacted Trump’s team saying documents were missing and may be at Mar-a-Lago.’
That date represented a moment in a series of contacts where officials of the National Archives sought the return of government documents. The back-and-forth would eventually result in a subpoena, and an FBI search of Mar-a-Lago on August 8.
‘We know things are very chaotic, as they always are in the course of a one-term transition,’ wrote NARA chief counsel Gary Stern to a Trump representative. ‘But it is absolutely necessary that we obtain and account for all presidential records.’
Documents returned by Trump, as well as documents seized during the search, have included numerous classified documents.
The feds said the FBI seized 100 classified documents during the August search alone.
Trump’s lawyers in their latest legal filing, repeatedly referred to ‘purported ‘classified records,” appearing to suggest that Trump might have declassified them, without stating so outright.
Strzok continued on in his independent investigation of Trump as if he hasn’t stopped since 2015.
“Great visual, though #1 might be two stacked boxes, meaning 9–not 8–total boxes. Good example of harm to nat sec from waiting to use MAL classified docs: ID and interview these folks, compare their fingerprints w/ those on seized docs/empty folders, build PC for other warrants.”

It is clear that the left is heavily invested in this scandal around the documents- likely because it is their last chance to try to keep Trump from returning to Washington DC as the President of the United States again.
“The National archives, which was behind the motivation for the political raid said it was ‘absolutely necessary that we obtain and account for all presidential records.’”
The documents would have come from agencies such as the CIA, NSA, DIA and FBI.
Each agency should have a record of each ‘secret’ document sent to the White House. The White House would have recorded their receipt and handling.
Punk those bastards.
So I suppose Bedminster will be raided tomorrow.
Congress has the power to set the rules for the government.
Trump doesn’t have to save his McDonald’s receipts since they are not based on the exercise of governmental power.
Disgraced former FBI agent Peter Strzok sure likes to run his mouth doesn’t he?
Agreed.
If I were Trump I would have boxes like that for luggage and for onboard snacks and meals.
Yeah. They're 5 for $20 at Office Depot.
I was thinking the same thing. However, I think it would be even funnier if all of those boxes very prominently displayed property of Donald J Trump. Then those boxes could mysteriously show up at Nancy Pelosi’s house, Chuck Schumer’s house, Liz Cheney‘s house, etc. with the press alerted to that, of course. Before long, the Babylon Bee will be in on the joke, too.
The best thing that Trump and other Republicans can do is to use Alinsky’s rules against Democrats. Alinsky was evil, to be sure, but a political mastermind.
Very rare and specialized.
Everything in his possessions has been de-classified by his order.
But no search for the 3 million unaccounted for documents known to be in the clutches of “The Great ObamaNation”.
And then there’s “Above The Law” Hitlery and her unauthorized possession of FBI files.
Has Washington Post reported that there were nuclear weapons hidden in these boxes?
Sheesh, when I house sit at my son’s for a week, I take one of those boxes with some work projects. I would imagine that Trump would need a few more than I do. How many law suits is he involved in? Lawyers may have sent him documents to review. A couple of years ago my husband and I were potential witnesses in a civil case. Lawyers for the guy suing sent us about 6 inches of documents. Boxes could contain material for a book (or books) he might be working on.
OMG so Trump and his wife leave FL. for the summer months AND they are NOT supposed to take ANYTHING with them, REALLY??? GEEZE the damn Dems are absolutely INSANE!!
This is incredible. Trump has people recording things as insignificant as the moving of boxes in minute detail. It fits the definition of busy bodies:
1 Timothy 5:13
Besides that, they learn to be idlers, going about from house to house, and not only idlers, but also gossips and busybodies, saying what they should not.
They are do-gooders, meddlers, or marplots who meddles in the affairs of others. They are using this tactic to distract Trump from accomplishing his mission for the American people.
Yep.
The only thing Peter Strzok is smoking is the little honey in another cubicle, or ditch diggings.
Trump knew well how to use Alinsky back on the dems
One of the reasons they hate and fear him
Maybe he is working on his tax returns and the boxes contain his expense receipts for the previous year. LOL!
My goodness the TDS is so strong in these people.
