Jesse Watters: This is why the DOJ didn't want to release the Mar-a-Lago affidavit
Fox News ^ | August 26, 2022 8:10pm EDT | Fox News Staff

Fox News host Jesse Watters reflected on the redacted affidavit over the FBI’s raid on former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate on "Jesse Watters Primetime."

[cut]

Well, according to the affidavit, there appears to be two major concerns: where the documents were stored and how they were stored. The affidavit states: "I believe that the storage room and other spaces within the premises are not currently authorized locations for the storage of classified information or NDI." NDI is national defense information. So let me get this straight: Trump has some Trump administration documents locked up in the storage room of a basement of a private club guarded by Secret Service agents? That's the reason for the raid? These are 10 times more secure than Hillary Clinton's materials left on a server in Chappaqua, begging for our enemies to penetrate, but they also didn't like how the documents were stored.

Are you ready for this? It says of most significant concern was that highly classified records were un-foldered, intermixed with other records and otherwise unproperly identified. Wait a minute, you're telling me Trump's biggest crime is his filing system, that he mixed newspaper clippings with a love letter from Little Rocket Man? Call Staples right away. We need a paralegal in here immediately to organize these files. This is why the Justice Department didn't want to release the affidavit. It's embarrassing.

What ever happened to the nuclear secrets he was selling to the Saudis? Now, this is about a file cabinet? What's in the file cabinet again? Don't know. They won't tell us because it's classified. They'll just leak it.

One correction. The affidavit admits Trump declassified these documents. So they were NOT classified documents any longer.

The crime here is putting declassified documents with never classified documents.

Hi!ibitch Cljntdog had classified documents on an illegal, unsecured server and emailed them to her buds using nonencrypted email.

Trump had them locked in a closet.

The Democrats’ way of keeping an alleged national secret is to cut 30 people in on it.

And there’s no doubt China, Iran, Russia and every other bad actor (and non-hostile foreign governments) haven’t downloaded the contents of Hillary’s server that contained Special Access Program materials.

It's about time the low-life Trump hating Aussies allowed some favorable news about Trump.

Though they'll never live down 2020 election betrayal of a sitting President and the nation as far as I'm concerned.

“One correction. The affidavit admits Trump declassified these documents.”

Wrong. The affidavit only admits there is a person that is saying Trump declassified the documents.

Right, so they FBI knew about it. Which means they could have confirmed with Trump if he did. And the Judge should have asked that very question.

He was never to take the documents that exposes the FBI corruption. According to the FBI, they prefer their corruption be kept secret.

The former President has Unconstrained Authority and unfettered control of the Documents.

In particular, the court stated that the President enjoys unconstrained authority to make decisions regarding the disposal of documents.

She broke MANY laws as soon as she was sending emails outside the protected US government mail system. There was a reason she was doing that, but nobody ever bothered to investigate that. Many suspect she was “accidentally” letting state secrets out in exchange for “donations” to the Clinton Foundation.
