Hundreds and hundreds of documents
By 
The Department of Justice seems to have searched Trump’s tacky gold club for extremely good reasons:
The initial batch of documents retrieved by the National Archives from former President Donald J. Trump in January included more than 150 marked as classified, a number that ignited intense concern at the Justice Department and helped trigger the criminal investigation that led F.B.I. agents to swoop into Mar-a-Lago this month seeking to recover more, multiple people briefed on the matter said.
In total, the government has recovered more than 300 documents with classified markings from Mr. Trump since he left office, the people said: that first batch of documents returned in January, another set provided by Mr. Trump’s aides to the Justice Department in June and the material seized by the F.B.I. in the search this month.
The previously unreported volume of the sensitive material found in the former president’s possession in January helps explain why the Justice Department moved so urgently to hunt down any further classified materials he might have.
However! Democrats should be very worried that this investigation might lead to a Republican House ginning up all kinds of specious investigations against prominent Democratic officials. Who knows, one of these snipe hunts might end up swinging a presidential election! I would hate for a new precedent to be sent that would allow Republicans to do things they have never done before and definitely would need permission to do going forward.
Nearly every paragraph of Rich Lowry’s execrable op-ed contains a deception, delusion, or lie, but this part here is where he confesses to marrow-deep GOP corruption: if Trump faces real accountability for actual crimes, the GOP will gin up false pretexts to imprison Democrats. pic.twitter.com/7Vu4Sz27lc— Brian Beutler (@brianbeutler) August 22, 2022
