As previously reported the FBI created a fake crime scene at Mar-a-Lago by adding their own documents to the scene and doctoring the photo they released in their report and to the press.
In its response, the DOJ included a document it claims was taken at Mar-a-Lago during its raid. The photo was all over the news on Wednesday, August 31, the day after it was provided to the court.
In the photo, the red, yellow, and brown cover sheets were added by the FBI. These cover sheets belong to the FBI. We know this for several reasons. The Trump White House did not use these cover sheets because they had their own.
The FBI inserted these to indicate that the “agency implementing regulations” – i.e. the DOJ – is involved in the maintenance of these records but this is not the case.
The President has the right to documents that are his. They are his property and an inserted document saying something different is simply not true.
Last month, Jack Smith admitted that the FBI tampered with the boxes containing “classified” documents they seized from Trump, and they can’t be certain about the original order or placement of the documents
In a May 1 filing, Walt Nauta’s attorney stated that he faced challenges in cross-referencing materials in classified and unclassified discovery because “certain items in the seized boxes he reviewed were in a different order compared to the scans of the boxes’ contents provided in discovery.”
Then this week, Jack Smith admitted the FBI doctored evidence to produce stunt photos of classified documents during the Mar-a-Lago raid.
This contradicts their statement in August 2022, where the DOJ lied to the Court when it claimed that the red, blue, and yellow sheets shown in the viral photo of the classified documents indicated their classification status.
It turns out they were “slip sheets” the FBI used to replace the so-called classified documents. The FBI admitted they messed with Trump’s documents! The FBI used cover sheets as placeholders for the classified documents.
On Monday, federal prosecutors led by special counsel Jack Smith released a new set of photos that they claim show classified documents stored in a “haphazard manner” at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate.
The pictures, some of which had not been previously disclosed, were presented as exhibits in a recent court filing in South Florida.
As reported by The Independent:
In photographs attached to a 33-page filing on Monday night, documents marked “secret” and “top secret” or bearing the White House emblem are seen stuffed in cardboard boxes alongside piles of golf shirts, sitting on top of old newspapers, and next to crates of Diet Coke.
One image shows a closet with newspapers and other documents spilling out on the floor from tipped-over boxes.
Smith’s team wrote that Trump “personally chose to keep documents containing some of the nation’s most highly guarded secrets in cardboard boxes along with a collection of other personally chosen keepsakes of various sizes and shapes from his presidency – newspapers, thank you notes, Christmas ornaments, magazines, clothing, and photographs of himself and others.”
After he left the White House in January 2021, Trump took his “cluttered collection of keepsakes” to his Florida home, “where the boxes traveled from one readily accessible location to another — a public ballroom, an office space, a bathroom, and a basement storage room,” according to prosecutors.
Trump’s lawyers argued that Joe Biden stored boxes of classified documents in his garage, the Penn Biden Center, and Chinatown—locations that remained accessible to individuals without security clearances. Biden was never charged for keeping SCIF-designated documents in deteriorating boxes in his garage.
President Trump’s lawyers argued that former President Bill Clinton stored classified tapes in his sock drawer, yet he was never prosecuted.
Mike Pence disclosed to NARA that “a small number of documents bearing classified markings” were stored at his home in Indiana, yet he was never prosecuted.
