Trump loses again in yet another court fight over Mar-a-Lago documents scandal

Raw Story  

Former President Donald Trump has lost yet another court battle in the investigation into his efforts to stash top-secret government documents at his Mar-a-Lago resort. The New York Times reports that Beryl A. Howell, the chief judge of the Federal District Court in Washington, ruled that the former president's lawyers have to hand over the names of private investigators whom they claimed conducted searches of Trump properties for additional classified documents. "The fact that the Justice Department sought a formal order for the investigators’ names suggests an increasing breakdown in trust between prosecutors investigating the documents case and Mr. Trump’s legal team," the paper writes. IN OTHER NEWS: Matt Gaetz calls Kevin McCarthy a 'squatter' on House floor while nominating Trump for Speaker Trump's decision to take top-secret documents with him prompted Attorney General Merrick Garland last summer to personally authorize an FBI search of Mar-a-Lago, which led to the former president claiming he was being politically persecuted.
