      1. Trump claims he had declassified all the documents marked as classified that the FBI seized at Mar-a-Lago. Even if that’s true, it probably doesn’t matter. nytimes.com/2022/08/12/us/politics/declassified-documents-trump.html

      Every news outlet in town seemingly already had it, but the search warrant and inventory have now been officially unsealed and docketed. Here they are: int.nyt.com/data/documenttools/mar-a-lago-search-warrant-and-inventory/5144e66f50896998/full.pdf

    People are focusing on the Espionage Act, but another law cited in the warrant is intriguing: 18 USC §1519. It's about document crimes that are part of obstructing an investigation or some other federal matter. So what is the thing that DOJ thinks Trump was trying to impede?

      Upon reflection, one possible answer is not very exciting. Maybe it's just a reference to the government's efforts to retrieve all the publicly owned documents that should have been deposited with the National Archives, -- as opposed to some other, unrelated investigation.
