reviewing documents seized by the FBI at his Mar-a-Lago Club to include classified files found there. The rebuff marked an additional setback in Trump’s efforts to slow down and delay the Justice Department’s criminal investigation into his potential mishandling of government documents.
Then in January of this year, the Supreme Court refused Trump’s request to block the release of Trump White House records held at the National Archives to the Jan. 6 committee. In that case, Justice Clarence Thomas broke with the other justices and wrote publicly he would have granted Trump’s request for the court to hear the case.
