Revelation of secret Obama-era program casts doubt on stated reason for Trump Mar-a-Lago raid
‘The law protects only those who follow the norms of one party,’ America First Legal Vice President Dan Epstein says
By Emma Colton Fox News

FIRST ON FOX: A purportedly never-before-seen Department of Defense memo from the Obama era appears to indicate the federal government already may have had original copies of the documents seized at former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home in Florida in 2022, raising serious questions about the pretext for the raid, Fox News Digital has exclusively learned.
America First Legal (AFL), a conservative legal group, released Thursday what it says is a newly unearthed memo from the Obama administration Department of Defense “confirming the government may have already had originals of the alleged classified documents involved in Special Counsel Jack Smith’s sham prosecution against President Trump.”
The document, titled Memorandum of Understanding Entered into by Presidential Information Technology Community Entities, is from 2015, and followed an October 2014 Russian breach of the Executive Office of the President’s network. Then-President Barack Obama took executive action to create the Presidential Information Technology Community (PITC) to better protect the executive branch from such attacks, according to AFL.
The PITC, which includes representatives from federal agencies such as the Department of Defense and Homeland Security, effectively established that the president controls information he receives through the PITC network.
The executive action was made public at the time. However, AFL said it obtained a never-before-seen memo confirming the Department of Defense has been “operating and maintaining the information resources and information systems provided to the President, Vice President, and Executive Office of the President.”
The memo could mean that the federal government has stored and retained Executive Office of the President documents, including “a substantial amount, if not all, of President Trump’s classified documents,” AFL said in its press release.

I didn’t expect Trump would get a good reception there.
Going into the belly of the beast is something Trump relishes.
He did a great job!
JUST IN: Senator Tim Scott (@SenatorTimScott) Defends Trump, Praises His Bold Strategy to Win Hearts and Unite America Amid Cheers and Boos at Libertarian National Convention, Says, “Donald Trump’s popularity continues to increase. He’s doing something I consider a 50-state strategy.” WATCH
“Good morning. Faced (with) a mix of cheers and boos at the Libertarian National Convention. What did you make of that response?”
“I saw a wave of red hats at the Libertarian convention. Donald Trump’s popularity continues to increase. But, Dana, he’s not just going to the Libertarian convention. He’s also doing rallies in Bronx.
“He doesn’t just want to win the votes of the American people. He’s trying to win the hearts of the American people, unite our country, and start steering us towards the strongest, most powerful, prosperous future we could have. So I give him a lot of credit. And going to places where Republicans have not gone before, if we’re going to win this election cycle, we must go where we’re not invited. And to see the former president take that seriously is, in my opinion, a strong sign and one of the reasons why, Dana, we are seeing the poll numbers moving in his direction.”

You’re so welcome, Lakeside Granny,
Could not find it in my usual google search, had to go to yahoo search engine.
Hmmmm, Google trying to hide it?
Google is NOT on our side, that is for sure.
Great!
Some results out of Trump’s speech at the LNC.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained comes to mind.
And he was willing to venture.
Thank you President Trump. This means a lot to our families. Thank you for recognizing Davy & Natalie God Bless @realDonaldTrump pic.twitter.com/BF7jkMuHwK— Ben Baker (@BenBakerMO) May 26, 2024

THIS after a massive rally in The Bronx, and an amazing speech and call for unity at the Libertarian National Convention in Washington, DC.

Jane, glad to see RPOTUS calling out the Marxism for what it is.
Never thought I would see this in America.
But here we are, and it must be eradicated.
ByeDone worked so hard this last week, didn’t you notice?
He has to have time on the beach, to recuperate, then be able to continue on with the destruction of America.

So sad that so many, in America, haven’t been educated on the evils of Marxism/Communism/Fascism.
Professor DJT is schooling everyone, God bless him!
So sad.
The Deep State is so evil....with their messages they send.
