Very interesting article explaining why the raid on Mar A Largo was conducted. It makes a lot of sense.

The DC Establishment Is Deeply Concerned That Trump May Have Copies of His Declassified Binder

Yes, we all know what they were REALLY worried about; Trump had the dirt on THEM. I believed that at the time; nobody would dare raid the former President's home - guarded by the Secret Service - for just some old documents the National Archives wanted. That was a crossing of the Rubicon. There had to be something very, very incriminating to those in power.

I hope Mr. Trump had the prudence to stash away proof of bureaucratic/Deep state collusion to frame him. And I hope he drops the bomb on them with it before the election is over.

As for this business about this binder being so super-secret, does it not occur to anyone that the CIA is not the ones who classify documents? I give you Federal Law on the subject:

(2) Original Top Secret classification authority may be delegated only by the President; an agency head or official designated pursuant to Section 1.2(a)(2); ...

So the President, not Langley, makes that determination. So how could this top secret information be classified by Mr. Trump if it is so damaging to Mr. Trump, and how is he not entitled to it?

Also, the CIA is not a branch of government and is not entitled to restrict information. Congress has every right to it, as does the President.

But it was the CIA who tried to run a black op on President Trump to install a President they could control.

Remember when Samantha Powers darkly warned "it's not a good idea to piss off John Brennan"? Brennan was running a black op on Trump all along. And it has since been proven false. (Brennan, head of the CIA when Trump took office, admitted to voting for the Communist Party in the '70's and also may be a likely Muslim convert. )

So we are to believe the CIA when it says it was Trump who "stole" highly classified information. The same CIA who crafted the whole Russian collusion hoax in the first place?

And the FBI and DOJ? Fuggetaboutit!

FTA:

A few months back, we told you about a new filing from John Solomon that told the backstory to President Trump’s last-minute declassification order of his "Binder of Declassified Documents.”—and how the DOJ sucked those documents back in and blackholed them.
At President Trump’s request, the DOJ provided the White House with a binder of materials related to the FBI’s Crossfire Hurricane investigation on Dec. 30, 2020. According to the motion, "Trump reviewed them and decided that the binder should be declassified to the maximum extent possible.”
As you might expect, the FBI had been objecting to the release of these documents because "the binder contained embarrassing information about the Bureau’s officials and the government’s conduct in the case,” and there was a lot of fighting over redactions.
This was finally settled, with President Trump accepting the "proposed redactions” and declassifying the binder in a final Jan. 19, 2021, order. As this was ongoing, Mark Meadows, President Trump’s chief of staff, informed Mr. Solomon of the pending declassification and invited him to the White House to "review several hundred pages of declassified documents and to discuss a plan for publicly disseminating the entire binder to the American public.”
As Mr. Solomon and his staff were reviewing the documents, they received a call from the White House asking that the documents be returned because the White House inexplicably wished to make some additional redactions to unclassified information under the Privacy Act.
Which is odd, because as Mr. Solomon’s filing notes, "the binder was not subject to the Privacy Act.” But for some unknown reason and "without the President’s knowledge or consent, one of the President’s subordinates [possibly Mr. Meadows himself] decided that redactions consistent with the standards of the Privacy Act should be applied to the binder before it was publicly released.”
According to the filing, Mr. Meadows "promised Solomon that he would receive the revised binder.” But as Mr. Solomon notes, this never occurred and the documents reside within the DOJ to this day.
A legal back-and-forth continued between the two camps until June 17, 2022—when an agreement was reached and President Trump designated "Kash Patel and Solomon as his representatives.”
President Trump’s lawyer reached out to Gary Stern, general counsel of the National Archives, telling him that they would like to begin reviewing the documents at the Archives on June 21, 2022.” But here’s where the intentional confusion by the DOJ and the National Archives comes into play.
Mr. Stern agreed to the review. But then, on June 23, Mr. Stern suddenly told Mr. Solomon the binder was not at the National Archives—it had been transferred back to the DOJ 18 months earlier "per Meadows’s original memorandum to the Attorney General.”
Mr. Stern said they did have a box of 2,700 "undifferentiated pages of documents with varying types of classification and declassification markings.” But he also told Mr. Solomon that because the National Archives could not ascertain the classification status of any information in the box, it would treat its contents as "Top Secret/Sensitive Compartmented Information.”
There were now effectively two binders—both of them considered classified, despite Trump’s declassification order. This was confirmed by Mr. Solomon, who told Mr. Stern that "he believed the records held by the Archives were the very same documents that Trump had declassified and that they were copied from the binder in preparation for release to the news media on the morning of January 20, 2021.”
