The Justice Department\u2019s investigation regarding the classified documents stolen while leaving office is really heating up. According to the latest New York Times report a top DOJ official told the former guy\u2019s lawyers that the department believes he has still not returned all of the documents to the National Archives.<\/p>\n<p>Jay I. Bratt, a top official who leads the DOJ\u2019s counterintelligence operations seems to show concrete evidence that investigators are skeptical that Trump has been fully cooperative with their investigative efforts to return all the documents. Golly geeze, someone let Susan Collins know that Trump still hasn\u2019t learned his lesson. <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s still unclear what steps the DOJ would take to retrieve any materials they believe Trump is still withholding. Also unknown is what documents they believe he\u2019s still in possession of and where they believe they\u2019re located. This comes after the August court-authorized search of Mar-a-Lago where the FBI retrieved more than 300 top secret and classified documents from the property. At least 40 of the folders were empty.<\/p>\n<p>The DOJ\u2019s latest outreach has caused a rift amongst Trump\u2019s legal team too. Allegedly one of Trump\u2019s lawyers have advised a more cooperative approach, including bringing on an outside firm to conduct a search for the missing documents. The other half of Trump\u2019s team has encouraged him to continue his combative method (which has been a losing strategy thus far). At this time, Trump is said to be sticking with the latter.<\/p>\n<p>Taylor Budowich, a spokesman for the former president, criticized the DOJ in a statement. \u201cThe weaponized Department of Justice and the politicized F.B.I. are spending millions and millions of American tax dollars to perpetuate witch hunt after witch hunt,\u201d said Budowich.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, the acting U.S. archivist, Debra Steidel Wall, told the congressional committee that the National Archives would consult with the DOJ on whether to \u201cinitiate an action for the recovery of records unlawfully removed.\u201d In her letter to the Oversight Committee, Ms. Wall wrote that, \u201cWhile there is no easy way to establish absolute accountability, we do know that we do not have custody of everything we should.\u201d<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Nikki Slusher I want to start this out by saying that if this story is true, then it\u2019s time to lock the Orange bowling ball of a bitch up and throw away the key.
