Did Pat Cipollone, and others, know that Trump had possession of the top sensitive documents?

It is my understanding that Cipollone attempted to get Trump to turn over the documents, he knew he was hoarding, to the Archives.

And did not report it to the FBI?

Did the NARA (National Archives) know about the sensitivity of the documents, also?

My understanding is that the FBI did not come into the picture until May of this year. That would be 17 months.

How much blame do these people share if all this information has been compromised and lives are endangered?

Now, they are reporting that Cipollone may take the Fifth before the Grand Jury tomorrow?

How much does he know that he refused to tell the January 6th Committee?

in regards to January 6 not the stolen documents, right?..and why would he take the Fifth?...he represented the office of the presidency not Trump..Trump is no longer in office, Cipollone has no client, and doesn't executive privilege rest with the current president not a former president?...I guess the question is: how complicit is Cipollone (and Philbin) in Trump's coup?...what did he know, when did he know it...

The Grand Jury is for the January 6th investigation. I was surprised to hear that Cipollone might take the Fifth, also.

Did he get too close to Trump?
