    It was not an affadavit. It was a Statement of receipts. And attorneys sign these things for rich clients quite often.

    According to several with White House experience I have heard discussing you are correct. When meetings occur and such information is there in handouts and binders at the end of the meeting all that material is left in the middle of the table ans collected a nd securely stores or destroyed. Participants including the President have to leave them there.

    The nuclear thingy being thrown against the wall is being done so for a particular part of the classification laws which attempt to get around the Presidents constitutional plenary power over classified information putting nuclear secrets in a separate category than all other. It wouldn't hold upbringing court as you cannot pass a statue that overrides the Constitution. And nuclear launch codes? They are changed daily if not more often and where would he even get a paper list of them?

    Let's not forget Obama declassified nuclear secrets and I don't recall the DOJ charging him with an espionage crime.

    Why President Obama revealed how many weapons are in the U.S. nuclear stockpile.

    In an underreported bit of news this week, the Obama administration revealed how many weapons are in the U.S. nuclear stockpile. The number, which until now has been classified, turns out to be 5,113.

    Two reasonable reactions to this disclosure might be: Why was this number classified in the first place? And why the hell do we need 5,113 nuclear warheads?

    It’s a good bet that President Barack Obama meant to prompt precisely these responses.

    There were three reasons for declassifying the stockpile numbers...

    Yeah I call bullshit. You couldn't give a **** if Trump sold national secrets to our enemies. You only want to support this criminal because you only care about owning the libs. I ain't falling for it bruh.

    Of course, Trump will say he didn't tell the FBI that, his lawyer, one that he hardly knew, told them that. LOL

    Is Trump in any way legally accountable for his lawyer having lied to the FBI since they are in his possession?
    Since the boxes are said to be marked "classified" I can't see his lawyer lying about them on their own ?
    Instructions from Trump to lie seem obvious.

    As I said - it could compromise the ongoing investigation.
    Trump will get it if he is charged.

    And by the way - he might not get charged. It is possible that other people are the target of the investigation.

    There have been documents removed from MAL 3 different times now...

    - 15 boxes in Feb
    - Some subpoenaed docs on 6/3
    - Whatever they took on Monday

    https://www.cnn.com/2022/08/09/politics/doj-investigation-trump-documents-timeline/index.html

    I wonder when the FBI will find out about the documents in the panic room?

    And yes, I suspect some informer told the FBI about documents in the safe relatively recently, although that hasn't been confirmed yet. The talking heads I watch seem to think that was the case and it's logical.

    If they signed it, a copy would have been provided to them.
    Yet both attorneys on location stated publicly that they were not given anything and they had no idea what the FBI was searching for.
    Your media propaganda doesn't align with the statements of the people who were there.
    Sorry

    This is huge


    @maggieNYT


    NEW: At least one lawyer for Trump signed a written statement for the Justice Department asserting all docs with classified markings in the boxes had been returned after a June 3 meeting, which could explain why "obstruction" statute was listed on warrant

    Trump’s Lawyer Reportedly Told DOJ After June Visit That All Classified Material Had Been Returned From Mar-A-Lago (msn.com)

    "
    Topline
    A member of President Donald Trump’s legal team signed a document saying that declared all classified material that had been stored at Mar-a-Lago had been returned to the government following a June visit by officials, according to the New York Times, which could indicate that Trump and his team were not completely transparent with federal investigators about the materials stored at Trump’s Florida residence.

    Key Facts
    The written declaration was drafted and signed after Jay Bratt, a top counterintelligence official from the Justice Department’s national security division, visited Mar-a-Lago on June 3, sources told the New York Times.

    The document would also explain why investigators, when seeking a search warrant for the search on Trump’s home, listed a potential violation of a criminal statute related to obstruction as a basis for the raid according to the New York Times.

    Its existence would also clarify why the Justice Department conducted the search months after starting efforts to settle the issue of the documents with Trump’s team through discussions, the newspaper said.

    Key Background
    During the raid, 20 additional boxes of government materials were seized, including those labeled as classified and “top secret” documents. Trump has characterized the raid as “political persecution.” The search took place after the Justice Department began investigating 15 boxes containing classified White House documents that were taken to Mar-a-Lago, and that in January were retrieved by the National Archives in Washington, D.C., where materials must be submitted to comply with federal recordkeeping laws.

    So you are playing dumb on purpose huh. If its all ya got, its all ya got.
    Tell us, when did Comey make his statement and who was in power when he declared not to investigate or charge Hillary again?
    Who was in power when Hillary destroyed all her evidence, destroyed all the cell phones, and deleted thousands of emails that were subpoenaed without a single charge?
    Who was in power when Hillary paid a Russian agent to provide her with dirt on Trump for their fake FISA warrants?

    You were saying something about the DOJ again?
