Mar-a-Lago Worker Provided Prosecutors New Details in Trump Documents Case

A maintenance worker for the former president recounted helping to move boxes into a storage room a day before a Justice Department official came seeking the return of classified material.

The day before a key meeting last year between a lawyer for former President Donald J. Trump and officials seeking the return of classified documents in Mr. Trump’s possession, a maintenance worker at the former president’s private club saw an aide moving boxes into a storage room, according to a person familiar with the matter.

The maintenance worker offered to help the aide — Walt Nauta, who was Mr. Trump’s valet in the White House — move the boxes and ended up lending him a hand. But the worker had no idea what was inside the boxes, the person familiar with the matter said. The maintenance worker has shared that account with federal prosecutors, the person said.

The worker’s account is potentially significant to prosecutors as they piece together details of how Mr. Trump handled sensitive documents he took with him from the White House upon leaving office and whether he obstructed efforts by the Justice Department and the National Archives to retrieve them.

Mr. Trump was found to have been keeping some of the documents in the storage room where Mr. Nauta and the maintenance worker were moving boxes on the day before the Justice Department’s top counterintelligence official, Jay Bratt, traveled to Mar-a-Lago last June to seek the return of any government materials being held by the former president.

Trump is a life long New Yorker. Everything about Trump speaks of New York. He changed his residency because DeSantis created a very inviting state. I’m sure it’s an admission that Trump won’t want to acknowledge at this point.

There are too many examples of unequal, one way justice under the law ... even rodham’s ordering Craig Livingstone to get FIB files on their political enemies is not far back enough ...

We are in this situation because the 4th estate is dead, the judiciary is no longer independent, too many people have been bought off by givernment benefits (at all levels), no real opposition party to shut down DC. We no longer live in the country we grew up in my FRiend.

defund DC

Good grief, dude or dudette. Trump employs around 22,000 people. Use you head.
