The Justice Department on Friday finally started releasing a redacted affidavit justifying the unprecedented FBI raid on former President Donald Trump’s Florida estate this month.
Documents gradually started being released online just after the noon deadline, including an exhaustive explanation for why so much of the official affidavit would be in parts completely blacked out.
The eagerly awaited release came after the department had tried to fight it, insisting it comprised key details that were “highly likely to compromise future investigative steps” into whether the 45th president illegally kept classified information at Mar-a-Lago.
