If this is over the classified documents retained at Mar-A-Lago then this goes back to February. No idea what Trump's statement means at the bottom. This should have been resolved, why didn't he just turn over the boxes to the National Archives like every other president.

WASHINGTON, Feb 18 (Reuters) - Former President Donald Trump took classified information to his Florida home after leaving the White House, the U.S. National Archives and Records Administration said in a letter to Congress on Friday about the 15 boxes of documents it recently recovered.
The Archives said it had informed the Department of Justice, which would handle any investigation.
"NARA has identified items marked as classified national security information within the boxes," David Ferriero, the archivist of the United States, said in a letter to Democratic U.S. Representative Carolyn Maloney, chair of the House of Representatives oversight committee.
"The National Archives did not 'find' anything, they were given, upon request, presidential records in an ordinary and routine process to ensure the preservation of my legacy and in accordance with the Presidential Records Act," Trump said in a written statement.
Could the Dems have done anything more to seal the fate of the next election? I don’t think so. Even if they are able to take Trump out, any republican in the world will get elected. Are they planning to raid Desantis’ house too?
As a political tool, this 'raid' would have been the worst one to choose.
I'm not sure that Democrats running in midterms in November will be seeing this as a tool that will help them.

Desantis says that the FBI is being used as a weapon against Trump, while Hillary Clinton and Hunter Biden are treated with kid gloves. Do they really think we are all that stupid that we won’t notice?
Did DeSantis steal documents he knew were the property of the Archives?
If Trump thinks these were his personal papers he's a bigger nit wit than even I thought.
The FBI assured the Trump election when their spokesperson condemned Billary days before the election.
It’s time folks, really and legitimately this clown show the left has been putting on for us needs to come to an end. Enough is enough. We need to do what we need to do. They’ll try to control the voting, they’ll start a crisis, they’ll release a virus, who knows they maintain power but we have to push through it. Fight fire with fire. Get these jokers out of our government and if we can out of our damn country.
You really need to face facts. Your hero is a thief, among other things.
Trump needs to stop doing stupid stuff, like stealing documents, gifts and whatever else from the White House. You know, if one lives a good clean life, the FBI doesn't come knocking.
You really believe the deep state would risk the inevitable firestorm blowback from Trump and the MAGA crowd - which will be of enormous political advantage to him going forward - for an insignificant nothingburger? If so, it's a brilliant strategy to re-elect Trump. And, if so, then the 'deep state' is a Trump ally after all.
That's too complicated for the Trump crowd to understand.
That’s your opinion. A special counsel should have been assigned months ago while media and institutions were covering, lying and censoring truth.
Shake off the cobwebs.
Exactly what would a special prosecutor do in relation to a case of tax fraud? How many witnesses do you think there were, and what could a SP do that a normal Grand Jury can't?
DO you think the Trump appointed head of the FBI and the DOJ just fell from a turnip truck?
They knew when they did this it wold start a civil war.
The Archives must have proof that Trump stole documents that are owned by the American citizens. Let Trump challenge the warrant in court.
The only reason to raid any place is to prevent the DESTRUCTION of evidence. If Trump has any documents being saved for his library, they were not going to be destroyed. The warrant is a farce.
^^^^^ You Democrats did something dumb. Not only you handed Trump the nomination but you open the field to raid the homes of the crooked Democrats when Republicans take control. You don't throw stones when you live in a glass house.
That's too complicated for the Trump crowd to understand.
The Trump crowd is powerless, fueled by the "big lie", rhetoric and a failed coup attempt.
