A court filing from the Dept. of Justice included a picture of some of the seized documents bearing clear classification markings.

The Justice Department says it has uncovered efforts to obstruct its investigation into discovery of classified records at Trump's Florida estate.The Justice Department said Tuesday that classified documents were "likely concealed and removed" from former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate as part of an effort to obstruct the federal investigation into the discovery of the government records.

It also included a picture of some of the seized documents bearing clear classification markings, perhaps as a way to rebut suggestions that whoever packed them or was handling them could have easily failed to appreciate their sensitive nature. That visit to Mar-a-Lago, which came weeks after the Justice Department issued a subpoena for the records, receives substantial attention in the document and appears to be a key investigative focus.

During that visit, the document says, Trump's lawyers told investigators that all the records that had come from the White House were stored in one location - a Mar-a-Lago storage room - and that "there were no other records stored in any private office space or other location at the Premises and that all available boxes were searched."

This has got to be the most country bumpkinist flea marketist shaaat I've ever seen! 😂 How is this man not under a prison right now? If you think he wasn't selling this info you're in a deep state of denial. 😂😂😂 Lock his ass up. And throw away the key. On a somewhat lighter note, those framed time covers are sending me.
