As soon as the federal indictment of President Trump was unsealed, we were treated to stories featuring photos of “boxes of documents” stored in various rooms at Mar-a-Lago — including boxes in places like on the stage in the White and Gold Ballroom, and even in a bathroom:
Like the photos from the raid showing classified documents splayed out on the floor, these photos created a certain impression with the public. Just look at how many boxes there are! Look where they were put! Dozens of boxes all over the place, where anyone could get them.
But as Newsmax host Greg Kelly pointed out, it’s “a scam” that’s poisoning the public’s perception of Donald Trump in this case. Why? Because, as Kelly noted, the actual number of classified documents that were found at Mar-a-Lago could fit into one single box, with ample room to spare.
“You don’t have to be a lawyer to look at this and know that it’s a scam,” Kelly said. “Number one, in that indictment, they put some pictures in the indictment to scare us. Ooh, look at all these boxes. The classified documents in the boxes. These pictures are actually in the indictment, and there are dozens and dozens of boxes.”
He continued, “So I went through the indictment and saw that how many documents, classified documents, did the FBI actually recover? 102.”
Kelly then pulled out a box like the ones in the photos. “So, everybody, I got a box right here, alright? This is one box.” He then showed an intact full ream of paper — 500 pages — plus another 100 sheets of loose pages to represent the actual classified documents that were found. They didn’t even come close to filling a single box.

One of those boxes literally says “MAL BEDROOM” (Mar-A-Lago) on it.
Trump did not pack up these boxes. He can’t be responsible for what is in them. Unless they could prove that he went through every one of those alleged crime boxes to certify what was in them, oops, not responsible. There is a serious “chain of custody” issue.
I would BET MONEY that the FBI PLANTED Classified Docs there!!
It doesn’t matter how many classified documents or boxes there are. Trump declassified them.
And who had access to start with?? Why would you need a security clearance if you didn't believe there was anything "classified" in the boxes. Why would anyone think there were classified documents in the box.
In all the boxes, how many pieces of paper actually should have gone to the NARA.
AND what was the exact date they were shipped to Mar A Lago. If it was before Biden was sworn in....you can consider everything in the boxes as declassified.
While there is a procedure....because many, many people can classify and de-classify documents, the President has an auto path. We know if he reveals something to anyone, this action is an auto declassification. He said it...it's done. YES, IT IS A MAGIC WAND which only the President has.
There is not one inkling that there were classified documents in the boxes when they were moved to Florida.
The media propaganda suckered in a whole bunch of never-trumper Freepers as well.
:: Ann Coulter took the bait. ::
You misspelled “Yoko Ono”
Can’t he just say that he declassified them. They found classified documents in bidens garage that he didn’t have the power to declassify. Talk about one sided. I bet obama knew this stuff would happen to biden. If Trump decided not to run they wouldn’t have someone to hide bidens stuff.
I have DOZENS of plastic containers just FULL of stuff!
And, any one of them COULD contain Classified Documents!!!
Or desiccated UFO pilot's bodies, or Jimmie Hoffa's heart in a bottle of formaldehyde!
Exactly. This entire thing is a farce.
Photo taken during FBI search of the basement of Trump Tower!!
That itself is a specious argument. You know about the documents that Trump returned...because he returned them. The FBI, executing its search warrant, found 102 documents. Speculation on what the boxes could have contained is just that. Speculation. And treating speculation as fact is inuendo.
“You should read the indictment.”
I don’t believe ANYTHING in the indictment.
“If they left the Whitehouse before Biden was sworn in, they would have been under the auspices of the President, and they would have been in fact declassified.”
Yep. If they left before 11:30 am on 1/20/21, they’re declassified.
No matter what....there was/is "0" inference that anyone had knowledge of the presence of classified documents.
I can only hope that ALL the surveillance cameras in MarALago were on and recording and they show the FBI doing some crazy sh*t
Unfortunately the FBI Demanded that all surveillance cameras be turned off during their raid. ☹️
