Ex-Trump Aides Say He Probably Has More Sensitive Documents At Other Properties

Two of Donald Trump’s former top advisers said Monday they suspect the former president could have more classified documents stored at his estate in Bedminster, New Jersey, and other properties.

“I have been saying this since the @FBI raid,” Michael Cohen, Trump’s former fixer and personal attorney, tweeted Wednesday. “I believe Trump has copies, potentially other documents as well, at other locations including his children’s homes, [Allen] Weisselberg’s Florida home, Bedminster, NJ golf course, Fifth Avenue apartment, etc.”

John Bolton, who served as Trump’s White House national security adviser, said he “wouldn’t be surprised if there were more highly classified documents at Bedminster or some other residence of his.”

8 men, not the usual 6 struggle to carry her casket in and out of the Church when it supposed
Y carried her ashes, plus the fact of where he buried her. Did he go to the burial? Trump did not for his brother. Trump and Melanie marched up the steps of the WhiteHouse, leaving his grieving widow being supported by another man.

Trump is one of the most,ignorant, Ill mannered men I have ever seen. He is worse than any of the most ignorant of the so called Red Necks.

8. Do you suppose Trump buried his "Plastic Man" superhero outfit in Ivanna's casket?

Where better to hide the remnants of his past identities? I think that's where they place the porta-cans for overflow during the club's tournaments. How tackily nefarious. How tastelessly vile. How so like TFG.

The Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation (FSB RF).

Good luck finding all of those.

Probably the best that can be done is to put Trump into Super Max prison for the rest of his life.

Trump has copies at Bedminster, his kid's houses, wherever. He was allowed to keep the documents for at least 180 days.

Our allies may not trust us for a very long time. Maybe we can still get intelligence from 5 Eyes because it is real time?

I was hoping that 5 Eyes intercepted something from Trump.

10. What's bizarre is djt's attorney, Alina Habba, claims she "diligently" searched MaLago on May 5 in

response to NY's AG Leticia James's subpoena for Trump Organization materials. She says she searched "all desks, drawers, nightstands, dressers, closets, etc." and found "no records." She claims she did the same at T's Bedminster residence and office. In the Politico story by Kyle Cheney, Habba claims she searched "many" of the locations searched by the FBI on Aug. 8.

On May 10, archivist Debra Wall reports that Trump's team is resisting sharing documents. That prompts the DOJ on May 11 to issue the subpoena for ALL documents "in custody or control of Donald J. Trump" that bear classified markings. June 3, Trump's attorneys hand over a single envelope to DOJ. Aug. 8 the FBI search occurs.

How could Habba have missed seeing the colored classified intel covers during her searches? Were they moved to where the FBI found them after Habba's search found nothing? Are they continuing to be moved? Did Habba see them but didn't realize what they were? Or is she lying?

If it can be proven beyond reasonable doubt he supplied our nation’s top secret intelligence to even one of our adversaries, then even the most maga of our citizens will run from the orange traitor, his name forever a disgrace to even mention, never mind defend.

In fact, I believe it’s started already.
