Judge Orders DOJ to Release Parts of Affidavit Used in Trump Search Warrant

HeadlineAug 26, 2022

It’s not yet known how much of the affidavit will be redacted, but the document is likely to contain clues to how the FBI established probable cause in its search of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort, where agents recovered 11 sets of classified documents, many of them marked “top secret.”
