Trump turns over hundreds of classified documents kept at Mar-a-Lago
By Hugo Lowell in Washington -
Donald Trump has turned over to the government hundreds of documents marked as classified and improperly retained at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida, according to a review conducted by the National Archives, the custodian of presidential records, and sources familiar with the matter.
The government has retrieved highly sensitive materials on three separate occasions: one set of documents facilitated by the National Archives in January, one set went to the justice department in June, and another set was seized by the FBI in a search two weeks ago.
An inventory of materials in that initial transfer showed the National Archives recovered from Trump more than 100 documents marked as classified – more than 700 pages in total – and some with “Special Access Program” markings that designate the highest level of classification.
The disclosures, which came in a letter published by one of Trump’s liaisons with the National Archives on Tuesday, provides for the first time an official accounting of the volume and sensitivity of the documents hoarded by the former president since the end of his administration.
