Julie Kelly @julie_kelly2 - A new book out tomorrow about the Biden DOJ with lots of scuttlebutt about the investigation/prosecution of Donald Trump. Snippets have been made available to corporate news orgs-I will post directly from book tomorrow and this week-but the description of what happened after the MAL raid on Aug 8, 2022 is absolutely laughable.
"In a hastily convened conference call that evening, Assistant Attorney General Matt Olsen listened as his investigators described the hundreds of pages of top-secret records they found, some containing gravely serious material. Several detailed covert government operations and U.S. spying powers could get American operatives killed if the information fell into the wrong hands. Instead of the documents being kept under lock and key in a government safe, agents found them spilling out of boxes in Trump’s personal office, his residence and even a bathroom shower."
Now let's think about this. First, the FBI, as I first reported, brought classified cover sheets to the raid an attached them to files and folders.
Second, there is no indication-and later court filings supported this-that "security" experts were on the scene to immediately determine which papers were so sensitive that Trump had broken the law. In fact, during the special master lawsuit the president filed after the raid, the Biden DOJ/DNI claimed the evidence was undergoing a classification review.
Third, the idea that these documents were SO SENSITIVE and represented a danger to national security has never been proven. But yet:
"Olsen turned to his top Justice Department expert on the mishandling of classified records, Julie Edelstein, to ask what they should do next. She delivered a startling assessment. 'If it was anybody else, we would arrest him tomorrow,' Edelstein said."
Really? For what? Edelstein, one of Jay Bratt's top deputies later detailed to Jack Smith's team, hadn't personally reviewed any of the hundreds of papers. There was no way for her to know whether the documents really represented a crime-but she nonetheless claimed a former president in possession of papers produced under his own administration should have been taken into custody.
Thankfully, Edelstein left DOJ after the president was inaugurated.
