National Archives says Trump representatives are still looking for additional docs he smuggled to Mar-a-Lago
By Brad Reed
Published February 07, 2022
The Washington Post revealed on Monday that former President Donald Trump improperly smuggled several White House documents with him to his home in Mar-a-Lago -- and there are apparently still more out there.
The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) has now released a statement claiming that "former President Trumps representatives have informed NARA that they are continuing to search for additional Presidential records that belong to the National Archives" that were wrongly removed from the White House last year.
"These records should have been transferred to NARA from the White House at the end of the Trump Administration in January 2021," the agency added.

They're either hidden somewhere or shredded. Lock him up?

Or for seditious conspiracy?

See todays post on emptywheel.net for an explanation of how Bannon is using the discovery process for his contempt indictment to inform other potential defendants about the progress of the investigation.
