This week in Florida, a significant development unfolded as Judge Aileen Cannon released a collection of documents that Special Counsel Jack Smith had previously sought to keep sealed. The revelation of these documents, including extensive exhibits, motions, and filings, illuminates the complex interactions between the Biden White House and the National Archives in the lead-up to former President Trump’s indictment.
Investigative journalist Julie Kelly uncovered a particularly intriguing detail within these documents. A testimony from an FBI agent revealed that the General Services Association (GSA) had initially stored Trump's boxes in Virginia before instructing Trump's team to retrieve them.
Kelly highlighted a curious incident: “An entire pallet of boxes, previously held by the GSA just outside of DC, ended up at Mar-a-Lago. It turns out these boxes contained papers with 'classified markings.'"
Kelly also noted a discrepancy, “I’ll need to double-check the indictment, but I don’t recall this event being mentioned in the timeline.”
This raises the possibility that the Biden administration might have inadvertently sent classified information to Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence. This is noteworthy as Trump has
accused the GSA of improperly packing the boxes with classified documents, which were later used as a basis for the FBI raid on his property in August 2022.
Tom Fitton, founder of Judicial Watch, commented on the situation, “It was a set-up from the start.”
In a parallel controversy, President Joe Biden was found to have classified documents stored in his garage for years, for which he blamed his staff, yet faced no charges.
While these findings don't definitively prove that the Biden administration orchestrated a setup in the classified documents case, they cast a shadow over the administration’s actions given its legal maneuvers against Trump.
This development also prompts further questions: If the GSA had custody of the boxes, why didn’t they review the contents before instructing Trump’s team to collect them? Did they know that classified documents were among the materials?
The unfolding situation continues to stir debate and raise questions about the handling of classified information and the intricate political dynamics at play.
