Federal agents removed thousands of documents from former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate last month — a fraction of which contained classified information, according to a detailed inventory unsealed by a federal judge Friday.
The property list revealed by US District Judge Aileen Cannon indicated that 11,179 government documents and photographs seized by federal agents on Aug. 8 bore no classification markings at all.
By contrast, 54 documents removed from the Palm Beach, Fla., resort were marked “SECRET,” 31 were labeled “CONFIDENTIAL” and another 18 were labeled “TOP SECRET,” according to an initial tally by The Post.

All is by definition unclassified, de-classified and non-classified.

Photographs? Photographs are such a serious national security threat that it called for an FBI raid?
People misunderstand what it take for the President to declassify something. He need merely state-this is declassified. It is even better if he writes a meme to that effect.
Removing the markings is a “ministerial function” having nothing to do whether the document is declassified. It is the act of someone with original classification authority - and the President is the highest original classification authority - declaring it declassified, and not some clerk tearing off the cover sheet and scratching through the classification markings.
Where are the documents marked SCI as shown in the photo?
All declassified by President Trump. There is no crime there.
Why would they take clothing?
I suspect Milley was looking for a new dress.
Yep, the only question remaining....
Did DJT have to say “I Declassify All this” three times? Or, was once sufficient.
DJT even talked about total declassification I believe just prior to 1/20/21.
Photos from either from hunter's laptop or Epstein's island.
That’s the part of the story that helps convince me that this was all planned as a FF, designed to take down the FIB.
Noting that ALL the plethora of stories since the raid have been good for DJT and bad, extremely bad, for bidAn and the DOJ and for the FIB.
18 U.S.C. § 793 has nothing to do wigh Classified information. Please educate yourself.
Clothing my be Sniff Worthy for certain FBI agents. Or maybe Dr. Jill needed to upgrade her wardrobe and stop dressing like a Cheap Whore. Or Joey is tired of always wearing Cheap Looking Suits? Or some of the White House staff are pissed they didn’t get any of those TRUMP Ties for Christmas that were so popular just a few years ago. Or simply Pedo Joe and the FBI are PERVERTS.
Trump claims it on Truth social, Kash Patel claims it on Fox news, but when it comes to reality, Trump’s lawyers are not saying they were declassified in court filings, they are talking about them as if they were in fact classified.

To be clear, this whole thing is stupid, ridiculous, and an abuse of power. Most of the “classified” docus retrieved were empty folders marked classified. This is a war on Trump, and half asses excuses aren’t going to cut it.
Freaking empty envelopes with directions to return to sender.
A lot of folks get confused by the fact that I you are an employee of the national security enterprise and want a document declassified you have a long bureaucratic process to go through to get a declassifier commissioned by someone with original classification authority to redact any classified material from a document and have it declared releasable.

Over 11,000 documents? What happened to the couple of boxes that had been claimed?
These pictures may amount to spillage. A crime if intentional.
11,000 documents IS just a few of boxes if they’re full. A standard case of paper is 5,000 pages.
Moreover, just because it has top secret or other markings or covers does not mean it is still classified .
If one page of 100 is top secret, the entire document is top secret, even.if every other page is unclassified. If that ts page is no longer there, and all other pages were unclassified, then the document is no longer ts, no matter its markings or cover sheets.
