Former President Donald Trump is criticizing the FBI after a picture of documents recovered at Mar-a-Lago was released.
In a post on his Truth Social platform, Trump wrote, “Terrible the way the FBI, during the Raid of Mar-a-Lago, threw documents haphazardly all over the floor (perhaps pretending it was me that did it!), and then started taking pictures of them for the public to see.”
“Thought they wanted them kept Secret? Lucky I Declassified!” he added.
The Justice Department released a picture of some of the documents that were apparently recovered during the Aug. 8 search of Mar-a-Lago.
The picture showed several documents spread out on the floor with sections that were whited out to obscure what was on the pages.
However, the words “secret” and “top secret” can be clearly seen on several documents.
The picture also showed a box holding framed covers of Time Magazine.
In a legal filing, the Justice Department revealed that it obtained the warrant to search Mar-a-Lago after receiving information that suggested there was “likely” an effort to conceal classified documents, despite a grand jury subpoena.
