Report: Trump Stole Classified Docs For Profits
Thanks to Trump-loving Judge Aileen Cannon, Felon 47 was able to skate away from a grand jury’s 37 felony indictments and get away with leaving the White House with classified documents, storing them in unsecure places and refusing to return them to their proper place in the National Archives. For extra Supreme Court Nomination credit, Cannon permanently blocked the release of any report by Special Counsel Jack Smith to the public.
However, more information recently emerged about why Trump grabbed those documents like they were a woman’s body part. A January 2023 memo recently released by the Department of Justice reveals that Smith’s office believed Trump stole the documents to help his businesses.
“Trump possessed classified documents pertinent to his business interests — establishing a motive for retaining them,” the memo said, according to MS NOW. “We must have those documents.”
The memo was part of a DOJ document production to the House Judiciary Committee, apparently in service of the committee’s effort to wreak retribution against Smith and his agents. In its zeal to help, the DOJ seems to have inadvertently violated Cannon’s earlier ruling to keep the documents secret.
