Lawyers for former President Donald Trump recently hired an outside team to search four of his properties for any potentially remaining classified materials

The team of two searched Trump Tower in New York, the Bedminster golf club and two other properties amid lingering concerns from the Justice Department that not all documents had been returned to the federal government. The four searches, which were carried out in recent weeks, were overseen by Trump’s legal team, the source said. Trump’s attorneys offered to let federal investigators observe the search at his Bedminster property, but that offer was declined.

It is unclear what the subsequent contact between the Trump legal team and federal investigators has been since the searches. The source would not detail what they have told the Justice Department about the search, but did say they have not attested to the Justice Department that no new material was found during the search. Some details of the search were first reported by The Washington Post.

What no word on this either ?

In other more current news outside the orange man that ghetto crackhead acting stripper AOC is in legal trouble … yet another democrat in trouble again and again and again

Your allowed to do this if your the Prez.. jeez

Why hire, use the FBI

Smart Man who loves and cares about this country🇺🇸don’t worry from buffles/you can put a couple of these properties in my name🌹🙏😅Mr.The President America needs you again you have to finish what you started as about 15000.00 illegals are entering daily Elephants need to step⬆️

Smart Man who loves and wishes the best to this country ....don’t worry from buffles you can a couple of these properties in my name 🌺🍎🙏😅

OMG they found the coveted Nuclear Football codes!!!! No they didn't......

search = hide

Finally Republicans are seeing Donald Trump to be the radioactive political poison that he is....

I would like to thank Donald Trump for helping the democratic party win so many seats in congress and other offices...

So Trump hires lawyers, who hires a team, that searches Trump's properties for documents, that he stole. Chaos of course.

LOCK HIM UP!

Let me guess this is fake new and Hunter Biden is true news, LOL

The only thing these lawyers will receive for their 'services' will be felony indictments like everyone around him...and rightfully so

he is going to jail any moment, CNN has been saying this for 8 years

sooo, how exactly many people without clearance get to see classified documents?

He is a walking crime wave.

Too bad they're not going to get paid. Anyway, the FBI will still raid his garbage properties when and if they see fit to do so.

Trump is the true Teflon king. Nothing sticks to him

Check Moscow, Pyongyang, and Riyadh too.

🤣 Fox guarding the hen house!!!!!!

If he's letting people search his property for classified material....you can be sure that it's somewhere else.

I wonder what are they hiding?

Sounds like the Lawyers covering their asses. Even they don’t believe their own client.

Do I have this correct? Trump hires people to search his homes to look for more classified docs....He doesn't even know how many docs he took?

Dont forget Ivana's coffin.......

Right now hundreds of thousands people are in the streets of Tehran. Azadi square is full of people chanting death to the dictator. Other major cities are the same this can be peak of a revolution but the government is cutting of the internet. Be our voice IranRevolution

This tells me that yes - they are at other locations - and trump knows where they are at but waiting for the announcement of who the lawyers n trump will blame ! This is another rouse !!!

Dig her up.

Will that include Ivana's coffin

Don't forget to look under the pile of McNugget wrappers next to the toilets.

Can't he find them by just thinking about them?

How’ll

They don't have clearance to touch those documents

Don't you need security clearance to search for classified documents? In case you find them?

One interpretation is that his own lawyers don't trust him when he insists there aren't any more to be found.

lol, the whole 'fox guarding the henhouse' thing is funny. But in reality, I believe it's totally reasonable for people to handle their own compliance issue. The problem here though, is if they found any, what did they do with them? Full circle back to the fox&hen house thing.

Why trust someone trump hires? They will just lie for him.

cheetochode trump.

Do they have to bring their own paper shredders or will they be provided?

Sounds like typical fake news

🤣😂 What a joke L O N G gone

😂😂😂That’s like asking a drug dealer to search for the illegal drugs in their house?

Any of us who’d done the same thing would’ve had the FBI at our door with warrants tearing the place down to the floorboards. Why does this liar get such deference?

Does that include Ivana's grave?

Makes no sense that's just malarkey and waste of time unless they are look for better hiding places.

Please prosecute

Why don’t they just ask him where he hid them?

Check the gravesite too

Such crap when will it end

I'm unique in that I believe that even Trump lives matter. It's a sure thing that kind of political beliefs can get some people killed. It's not like Trump is alone. JFK and many others who didn't jus give up and go along peaceful died. Not to mention the many others. No fear?

What a joke. Now if they could only search Trump himself and find one honorable and remarkable quality.

You mean 'to destroy evidence at four of his properties' There. I fixed it for you.

Another team that will go unpaid for their services.

The crook is searching his own properties ? , a known Criminal and Liar is to be trusted , lmmfao .

News being hidden..these are children

Man oh man....the boys and girls are tough....no one pees on us....no prosecutor...no judge...not even our client.

Bring a shovel

They obviously don’t trust Trump either

Okay what does that mean? That's like sending the cat to look for the milk on the counter and expect it to ignore the milk. Not a good strategy, an opposing independent person need to do the search under supervision of DOJ.

Let me guess….they didn’t find anything?

Worried about materials and as if Trump would look to harm this country which he loved more than any dem, while they are breaking our borders w over a million plus unvetted illegals swarming in, including suspected terrorists, defunding cops causing crime surging.

🥱

Check DonaldJTrumpJr residence.

Hard to find missing classified documents that may not even be in the U.S. anymore.

At least they arn't getting paid with maga election campaign donations anymore.

He stole so many that he doesn’t even know where they all are.

And do what with the documents? Destroy them? Or is it a security test to ensure the rest of Trump’s stolen documents are satisfactorily hidden?

All this says to me is classified documents were definitely taken to all of those properties at some point during his presidency and no one has a paper trail as to whether those documents ever left those properties. Cannot wait for the DOJ to come down with all their charges.

What an incredible and insane story, that a former president can’t know for sure if there are any classified documents laying around at private residences.

Meanwhile at CNN 👀 CNN CEO Chris Licht was forced to hire extra security this week as he gutted nearly 10% of the struggling news network’s staff in a much-expected cost-cutting bloodbath, has learned

cNn tRuStEd nEwS

Actually they are looking for his autographed picture of Kim Jong-il, his Nobel Peace Prize, Emmy, and Times Man of the Year award.

Intercept that please - FBI

His lawyers? Fracks the point then

Dig up the golf course.

Trump hired a team to search HIS properties? I made my grandson search for the missing cookies! Worked great, he found some cake was also missing and let me know that the pie would probably be missing by dinner time! What a relief!

Did they dig up the empty coffin.

I'm sure they all had the necessary credentials to read those classified documents when they find them.

And we trust what his lawyers say!

Wolves watching the hen house?

I'M TELLING YOU THOSE DOCUMENTS AND BURNER PHONE'S ARE IN THE DIRT MOUND ON HOLE 12 WITH IVANKA TRUMP IN JERSEY ON THE GOLF COURSE!!! LOL

Check the grave.

Does anyone think this is anything but more trump crap?

But her emails.

Like hiring arsonists to put out fires!

Cyber Ninjas?

Why are we trusting lying lawyers to do law enforcement's job?

The fox guarding the hen house is a apt allegory.

He's had plenty of time to eat or flush any remaining documents.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🙄

Distraction from what's going on in the current WH. How can you report this while completely ignore what the current administration is doing? CNN=💩 News.

How much more guilty of mishandling classified documents could you possibly be when you have to hire people to search your property to see if you missed any classified documents!

Did they search Ivana’s grave/casket?

I guess everything Trump is news worthy to you guys. Next will be bowel movements.

And we are to trust them, why?

🙈🤣🤣

What Utahns in Congress say about Trump suggesting 'termination' of the ConstitutionMembers of Utah's congressional delegation are responding to former President Donald Trump suggesting the 'termination' of the Constitution to overturn the 2020 election. Oh oh. Now Owens and Stewart might be in trouble. They aren't catering to their bases. The best thing that can happen for America is for Trump to go away for good. He will never stop his lies and he does not care about the damage he inflicts on this nation. His sole concern is for his personal power and ego. Happy to see people other than just MittRomney with guts enough to speak out against Trump. Lee, Stewart and Owens, in particular, have been extremely weak. Trumps behavior is incomprehensible. It doesn’t take rocket science to realize the man can’t be trusted. UTPOL GOP
