Mar-a-Lago raided by the FBI
On Monday night, Trump said that the FBI has raided his home at Mar-a-Lago in Florida, according to NBC News.
Trump also said that the FBI broke into his safe and the search was politically motivated.
“These are dark times for our Nation, as my beautiful home, Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, is currently under siege, raided, and occupied by a large group of FBI agents,” he said in an email statement issued by his Save America political committee.
“After working and cooperating with the relevant Government agencies, this unannounced raid on my home was not necessary or appropriate.”
A source with knowledge of the situation told NBC News that the search was related to classified information that Trump allegedly brought from the White House to Mar-a-Lago in January 2021.
