Wall’s letter revealed that Team Biden had empowered the National Archives and Records Administration to waive any claims to executive privilege that Trump might assert to block the DOJ from gaining access to the documents.
Wall wrote: “The Counsel to the President has informed me that, in light of the particular circumstances presented here, President Biden defers to my determination, in consultation with the Assistant Attorney General for the Office of Legal Counsel, regarding whether or not I should uphold the former President’s purported ‘protective assertion of executive privilege.’ I have therefore decided not to honor the former President’s ‘protective’ claim of privilege.”
Trump’s legal team filed a lawsuit on Monday asking a federal judge to appoint a “special master” to review the documents removed from his Mar-a-Lago home by the FBI.
Trump said in a statement:
All polls STRONGLY indicate that I am the candidate that Democrats LEAST want to run against, by far, hence the politically motivated Raid on Mar-a- Lago – Which has backfired, big time! I beat them twice, did much better the second time (many millions more votes than the first!), and may just have to do it again. Our Country is going to Hell!
We have just filed a motion in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida strongly asserting my rights, including under the Fourth Amendment of our Constitution, regarding the unnecessary, unwarranted, and unAmerican Break-In by dozens of FBI agents, and others, of my home, Mar-a-Lago, in Palm Beach, Florida.
They demanded that the security cameras be turned off, a request we rightfully denied. They prevented my attorneys from observing what was being taken in the raid, saying “absolutely not.” They took documents covered by attorney-client and executive privilege, which is not allowed. They took my passports. They even brought a “safe cracker” and successfully broke into my personal safe, which revealed……nothing!
We are now demanding that the Department of “Justice” be instructed to immediately STOP the review of documents illegally seized from my home. ALL documents have been previously declassified.
We are demanding the appointment of a SPECIAL MASTER to oversee the handling of the materials taken in the raid. We are further demanding that the DOJ be forced to turn over a REAL, without “plants” inventory of my property that was taken and disclose where that property is now located We are demanding that all items wrongfully taken from my home be IMMEDIATELY returned.
The wrongful, overbroad warrant was signed by a Magistrate Judge who recused himself just two months ago, from a MAJOR civil suit that I filed, because of his bias and animus toward me.
This Mar-a-Lago Break-In, Search, and Seizure was illegal and unconstitutional, and we are taking all actions necessary to get the documents back, which we would have given to them without the necessity of the despicable raid of my home, so that I can give them to the National Archives until they are required for the future Donald J. Trump Presidential Library and Museum.
I will never stop fighting for the American people, our Country, and the Rule of Law.
Ohio Republican Rep. Jim Jordan, the ranking Republican on the House Judiciary Committee and the committee’s likely chairman if the GOP wins control of Congress in November, called Team Biden’s involvement and privilege waiver “amazing news” with implications for past and future presidents.
