"DOJ argued. Trump's "filings present three issues: whether [Trump] is currently entitled to the return of any property, to injunctive relief, and to the appointment of a special master. Not only does [Trump] lack standing to raise these claims at this juncture, but even if his claims were properly raised, [Trump] would not be entitled to the relief he seeks."

Documents at Mar-a-Lago Were Moved and Hidden as U.S. Sought Them, Filing Suggests
The filing by the Justice Department paints the clearest picture to date of its efforts to retrieve documents from the former president’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida.The Justice Department sought a search warrant for former President Donald J. Trump’s residence in Florida after obtaining evidence that highly classified documents were likely moved around and concealed and that Mr. Trump’s representatives had falsely claimed all sensitive material had been returned, according to a court filing by the department on Tuesday.
The filing, which came in response to Mr. Trump’s request for an independent review of materials seized from his home, Mar-a-Lago, paints the clearest picture yet of the department’s exhaustive effort to retrieve the documents before taking the extraordinary step of searching a former president’s private property on Aug. 8.
Among the new disclosures in the 36-page filing were that the search yielded three classified documents in desks located inside Mr. Trump’s office, with more than 100 documents in 13 boxes or containers with classification markings in the residence, including some at the most restrictive levels.
That was twice the number of classified documents the former president’s lawyers turned over voluntarily while swearing an oath that they had returned all the material demanded by the government.
The investigation into Mr. Trump’s retention of government documents began as a relatively straightforward attempt in 2021 to recover materials that officials with the National Archives had spent months trying to retrieve. Tuesday’s filing made clear that prosecutors are now unmistakably focused on the possibility that Mr. Trump and those around him took potentially criminal steps to obstruct their investigation.
Investigators developed evidence that “government records were likely concealed and removed” from the storage room at Mar-a-Lago “and that efforts were likely undertaken to obstruct the government’s investigation,” prosecutors wrote in the filing.
It included one striking visual aid — a photograph of at least five yellow folders recovered from Mr. Trump’s resort and residence marked “Top Secret” and another red one labeled “Secret.”
But department officials are not close to filing charges, if they ever will. And it remains unclear what specific materials the government recovered in the search — or what actual risk to national security was posed by Mr. Trump’s decision to retain the materials.
While the contents of the filing provide important new information about the timeline of the investigation, much of the information was referenced, in less detail, in the affidavit used to obtain the warrant, which was unsealed by a federal magistrate judge last week.
The most important disclosures concerned the actions of Mr. Trump’s legal team at his behest.
The Justice Department effort began in May, after the F.B.I. examined 15 boxes of documents the National Archives had previously retrieved from Mar-a-Lago after months of asking Mr. Trump’s representatives to return missing records. The bureau found 184 classified documents in that initial tranche.
On May 11, the department lawyers obtained a subpoena to retrieve all materials marked as classified that were not turned over by the former president.
On June 3, his team presented F.B.I. agents with 38 additional documents with classified markings, including 17 labeled top secret; they also provided the department’s national security division with a written statement by one of Mr. Trump’s lawyers on behalf of his office who was serving as the formal “custodian” of the files. While that person’s name has been redacted in government filings, multiple people have identified her as Christina Bobb.
Ms. Bobb’s statement was attached to the department’s filing on Tuesday. In it, the lawyer wrote that “based upon the information that has been provided to me,” there had been a “diligent” search and all responsive documents to the subpoena were being returned.
But law enforcement officials soon developed evidence that statement was untrue — and said their investigation cast serious doubt on the sworn statement.
continued ...
The F.B.I. “uncovered multiple sources of evidence indicating that the response to the May 11 grand jury subpoena was incomplete and that classified documents remained at the premises, notwithstanding the sworn certification made to the government on June 3,” the Justice Department filing said. “In particular, the government developed evidence that a search limited to the storage room would not have uncovered all the classified documents at the premises.”
The Justice Department obtained further subpoenas for surveillance videos of Mar-a-Lago, and the search warrant affidavit revealed that it had been working with multiple civilian witnesses. The result was the search warrant executed on August 8.
The filing noted “the F.B.I., in a matter of hours, recovered twice as many documents with classification markings as the ‘diligent search’ that the former president’s counsel and other representatives had weeks to perform,” a fact that it said “calls into serious question the representations made in the June 3 certification and casts doubt on the extent of cooperation in this matter.”
Mr. Trump and his allies have claimed that, as president, he had virtually limitless power to declassify documents. But prosecutors said that Mr. Trump’s lawyers never “asserted that the former president had declassified the documents or asserted any claim of executive privilege.”
Tuesday’s filing, which was released minutes before a midnight deadline imposed by a federal judge, accompanied a sealed list of the documents, many of them highly classified, that Mr. Trump retained at Mar-a-Lago. That inventory, filed earlier in the day, is likely to be far more detailed than the brief list included in the search warrant unsealed at the request of Attorney General Merrick B. Garland.
The department, inundated by the torrent of misinformation and vitriol unleashed on federal law enforcement officials by Mr. Trump and his supporters, has been using legal filings, rather than social media or public comments, to disclose the evidence and legal reasoning behind their actions. On Monday, prosecutors sought permission to extend the length of their response, which was quickly granted.
Mr. Trump’s legal team, which has been slow to respond to the government’s actions since the search, is requesting the appointment of an independent arbiter known as a special master to review the trove of materials seized by the F.B.I. The president’s lawyers waited weeks to even file the special master request, which was intended to halt the examination of the documents, allowing the government to complete its initial assessment — potentially rendering the request moot.
On Tuesday, the Justice Department argued that a special master was “unnecessary and would significantly harm important governmental interests, including national security interests.”
It also argued that the judge lacked jurisdiction over the matter and that Mr. Trump “lacks standing to seek judicial relief or oversight as to presidential records because those records do not belong to him.”
Yet, over the years the former president has frequently taken legal steps simply to delay and disrupt the opposition, and the court could temporarily block investigators’ access to the evidence, to hinder the separate effort to determine the national security risks posed by his possession of the documents.
The Trump appointee overseeing the request, Judge Aileen M. Cannon of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, had already signaled that she was inclined to appoint a special master but wanted to first hear from the Justice Department.
On Monday, the government said it had set aside materials that could potentially be covered by attorney-client privilege, although Mr. Trump’s lawsuit had raised executive privilege, a different issue. A hearing on the matter is scheduled for Thursday in West Palm Beach, Fla.
The department’s decision to use a court filing as a vehicle to provide a more extensive explanation of the government’s actions — and a rebuke of Mr. Trump’s rotating roster of legal representatives — evolved over the last few days and lawyers wrangled over small details until moments before it was filed, according to people familiar with the situation.
Mr. Garland, they said, remains deeply wary of speaking too much, cautioned by the example of James B. Comey, the former director of the F.B.I. whose high-profile pronouncements during investigations into Mr. Trump and Hillary Clinton were regarded as an egregious violation of departmental policy norms.
But after the Mar-a-Lago search, the department’s senior leaders quickly realized that Mr. Trump would otherwise seize on their silence with distorted claims.
So, they have chosen the traditional path, using public filings to make their case — leavening the dense legal passages with explanations aimed at being more accessible to the public, officials said.
On Tuesday, Mr. Garland took another step geared at emphasizing his impartiality and fairness, imposing new restrictions on partisan activity by political appointees at the Justice Department, a policy change that comes ahead of the midterm elections. The new rulesprohibit employees who are appointed to serve for the duration of a presidential administration from attending rallies for candidates or fund-raising events, even as passive observers.
Mr. Trump, for his part,
has dismissed concerns about the performance of his legal team, and told associates that he will ultimately prevail over the Justice Department, just as he “won” impeachment and the investigation into his ties with Russia conducted by the special counsel Robert S. Mueller III.
On Tuesday, hours before the government filed its paperwork, Mr. Trump added a member to his legal team to focus on the trouble brewing in Florida, Christopher M. Kise, Florida’s former solicitor general and an associate of Gov. Ron DeSantis, according to two people familiar with the situation.

You poor, deluded bastard, you need help that DECADES on a shrink's couch wouldn't fix. You'll probably just lie there on the couch stuffing your face until you stroke out.
Classified documents are not an issue here. Presidents can declassify any record with absolute authority.
The corrupt DOJ, the corrupt FBI, the corrupt Fake News is trying to make this seem like a Crooked Hillary-like story. It’s not. She did mishandle classified information since she was never president, had an email server that was not authorized or secured from which she transmitted classified information as secretary of state, and destroyed 33,000 emails under federal subpoena. Crooked Hillary’s communications set-up was designed to circumvent public records regulations. She also destroyed government-issued blackberries with hammers and bleached her servers. Yet, there was no FBI raid. There should have been, but Crooked Hillary is part of their criminal syndicate.

Exactly. Notice how this raid went from sensitive nuclear information to classified documents to now obstruction of justice. Today will be something new. They are in such a deep shit hole they don’t know what the fuck they’re doing. Even fake ass news media can’t keep up with the lying bullshit. It’s got the rotting maggot shit trolls around here running in circles. Ha ha
Now they're posting top secret documents on the internet !!!!!!!!!!!
LMFAO
Bozzie couldn't find the cheese in a mouse maze. This dude just can't think. He swallows and regurgitates bullshit and 5th grader should question (no offense to 5th graders intended)
Dude, stick to Canadian tomatoes, you're in way over your head in the political arena. You are the target audience your handlers use and laugh at
