Classified documents may not be the only prized items squirreled away at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort.

Ancient ceramic oil lamps belonging to the Israeli government have been stashed at the Palm Beach property for years — despite the Jewish state’s efforts to get them back.

The lamps were sent to America in late 2019 on the condition that they be returned within weeks, Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported.

They were meant to be briefly put on display in the White House for a Hanukkah candle-lighting event, but that never happened due to “a bureaucratic difficulty raised by the Americans,” the outlet said.

“A bureaucratic difficulty raised by the Americans”

We’re still reverse engineering the listening devices and tracing the associated spy network?

I think Trump should send them back after Mossad recovers the Super Bowl ring that Putin stole from Robert Kraft. THAT should make one heck of a NY Post hadline!

WOW!
I wonder what else they will find stashed at Mar-a-Lago?

Jacob Waltz’s map? The Lost Dutchman Mine? The place is big enough.

“We wanted our man to go and bring it back, but then COVID broke out, and everything got stuck,” he told Haaretz, adding that the authority did not want to risk damaging the antiques by having them sent back on a regular passenger flight or by overseas courier .... It’s unclear whether Trump or anyone in his immediate orbit was aware that the lamps were on his property.

The Character played by Bob Newhart in the movie The Librarian is based on Trump.

Sounds like a SPECIAL PROSECUTOR is needed to look into this ABUSE OF POWER.

I wonder how much of it Trump and his wife personally packed? Did they examine every box that was packed for them?

Exactly like Trump, down to the smallest detail. He even commands Excalibur.
