Although members of former President Trump’s entourage stated earlier in the day that no classified documents were found during a search late last month, two classified government documents were found in a locked box in a West Palm Beach warehouse. This was reported by The Washington Post and The New York Times.
Since his turbulent departure from the White House, Donald Trump has been suspected of taking classified government documents. After a subpoena in May and even an FBI raid on his Mar-a-Lago resort from the inside out in August, the US Department of Justice remains convinced Trump has placed thousands of government documents, some 300 of them “classified,” in his letter. has. In the end, a judge ruled that Trump’s lawyers must be able to prove that he did indeed pass on all of the classified documents.

Trump’s attorneys’ team then commissioned an outside firm to investigate four locations linked to Trump: his golf resort in Bedminster, New Jersey, Trump Tower in New York, and a warehouse in Mar-a-Lago and West Palm Beach, Florida.
Earlier in the day, people accompanying Trump reported that nothing had been found. But the Washington Post and The New York Times are now writing that a locked box containing two classified documents was found in that last warehouse. The US government leased this site to Trump, who kept boxes, gifts, and clothes there, among other things. They came from an office in Northern Virginia that Trump’s staff had used in the months after he left Washington. However, according to a source, Trump was never in the warehouse himself, and may not have even known what was there.
Trump’s lawyers notified the Justice Department of the discovery and turned the documents over to the FBI. Exactly what documents were found is still a big question mark.
