Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene has alleged that the Justice Department under President Joe Biden authorized the FBI to use deadly force during its raid on former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate, claiming it was an assassination attempt. The FBI, however, asserts that the term ‘deadly force’ is standard in search operations and no departures were made in this case.
Results for: FBI raid
An associate of former President Donald Trump had advised him to return classified documents held at Mar-A-Lago almost a year before the FBI searched his property. Federal prosecutors unsealed legal filings on Monday, detailing multiple warnings given to Trump years before his indictment on charges of willfully retaining national security materials. The associate, identified as “Person 16,” approached Trump in November 2021, urging him to “give everything back” to avoid potential prosecution. Trump’s trial date for the classified documents case remains unset.
