Special counsel Jack Smith and the DOJ are investigating Donald Trump for keeping government documents after he left the White House.
One relates to Trump's retention of government documents, many of them classified, at his Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida when he left the White House, and possible obstruction of justice in thwarting the recovery of that material by the National Archives and Records Administration.
Trump in a social media post on Sunday wrote, "Reports are the Marxist Special Prosecutor, DOJ, & FBI, want to Indict me on the BOXES HOAX, despite all of the wrongdoing that they have done for SEVEN YEARS, including SPYING ON MY CAMPAIGN." Trump, who is seeking the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, is also being criminally investigated by a state prosecutor in Atlanta for his effort to get Georgia officials to reverse Biden's victory in that state in 2020. Georgia was one of several swing states that Biden won, sealing his victory in the Electoral College.
