A more than compromising testimony for Donald Trump. According to Washington Post and CNN, the former president of the United States would have directly ordered one of his employees to move several boxes containing classified documents from one place to another in his home in Mar-a-Lago, Florida.
solid evidence
This order would have been given by Donald Trump after receiving a subpoena from the government as part of an FBI investigation. Investigators suspect the former leader violated a US espionage law that strictly regulates the possession of sensitive documents related to national security, some of which are classified as “top secret.”
In addition to the testimony of this man, who is now fully cooperating with justice according to US media, the FBI also has video surveillance footage showing the employee removing boxes from a Mar-a-Lago warehouse. This would be, to date, the strongest evidence of possible obstruction of justice by Donald Trump in this case.
Last August, Trump’s home was raided. Federal agents had seized more than 11,000 documents, including 100 designated as classified. According to the Washington Postcertain documents sought by the FBI could be related to nuclear weapons in particular.
In recent days, the US National Archives in Congress have also pointed out that some members of the Donald Trump administration have not yet returned some of these documents that remain legally property of the State.

Parallel to this investigation, Donald Trump remains at the center of other legal cases. A parliamentary investigation seeks, in particular, to shed light on the former president’s role in the capture of the Capitol on January 6, 2020.
In late September, the New York State Attorney General’s Office announced civil lawsuits against the former US president and several of his children, following an investigation into the tax practices of his group, the Trump Organization. This Wednesday, the American justice also confirmed that Donald Trump will have to testify in a case that opposes him to a rape accuser.
