Information on foreign nuclear defenses among Mar-a-Lago documents
- Some of the documents seized from Mar-a-Lago reportedly contained information on a foreign government’s defense and nuclear capabilities.
- Some documents detailed US operations that were “on a need-to-know basis,” with some requiring beyond a top-secret clearance.
- The report did not identify the foreign government named in the document.
Information on a foreign government’s defense and nuclear capabilities was detailed in some of the documents seized from former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home, according to a recent report from the Washington Post.
The Post cited unnamed sources in its report.
The FBI recovered over 11,000 government documents and images from the Florida estate last month. The agency has yet to reveal the content of all seized materials, as well as the foreign government named in the document. According to previous reports, authorities have been looking for classified documents about nuclear weapons during the Aug. 8 search.
The Post‘s report stated that records seized from Trump’s home were documents that were usually under close surveillance by “a designated control officer.” Some of the documents detailed US operations that required special clearances “on a need-to-know basis,” and some even required beyond a top-secret clearance. This means that some of the administration’s most senior national security officials did not have the authority to review these documents.
The subject has been a matter of controversy ever since FBI agents conducted an unprecedented raid of a former president’s home. The raid was reportedly part of the Department of Justice’s investigation into whether Trump took highly sensitive government records and improperly stored them at his Florida estate. William Barr, Trump’s former attorney general, said that the investigation was necessary since the government records posed a national security risk.
Trump has repeatedly called out the DOJ and the FBI, calling them “vicious monsters controlled by radical left” individuals.
On Monday, a federal judge granted Trump’s request for a special master to be appointed to review the documents. Judge Aileen Cannon, a Trump appointee, also directed the DOJ to temporarily halt its investigation of the documents until after the special master’s review.

Here’s what they won’t tell you. In a mad scramble over about 6 hours, the General Services Administration (GSA) packed up boxes with everything around the Oval Office and shipped them via whatever to Mar A Lago. They were not looking at stuff and didn’t care assuming it would all get sorted out later.

Can we really believe the FBI? I am thinking they reviewed what documents President Trump had when both FBI and DOJ reviewed all of them back in June 2022. Then they come up with a plan that incorporates a “ whistleblower “ reporting highly classified documents at Mar A Lago. This gives them a reason to come up with an affidavit to get a search warrant so they can plant classified documents among the Documents seized.
If what they were going after required a 30 man SWAT team and was so highly classified, why did they not immediately execute the search warrant once signed off by the Magistrate. They got it late Friday afternoon and raided on Monday morning. Their offices are wthin an hour of Mar A Lago. Why have their been leaks by the FBI or DOJ to the press concerning this search?

leak leak leak leak leak leak leak….
the doj has had enough time to pretty much make their maralago haul have anything they want in it. time to massage evidence, to alter docs, and do whatever they wanted with it. not sure where the chain of custody goes on this. did it end with the doj or the fbi or did they have to file a detailed account of evidence with the judge? at any rate we do know for sure that there is nothing you could put past the fbi or the doj. america has fallen so low under democrat rule. but they are finding out that we are a lot tougher than they thought we were. and they ain’t seen nothing yet.
