A former top Trump administration official said he thinks the FBI may have taken documents relating to the Russia–Trump collusion investigation during the raid on former President Donald Trump’s Florida home earlier this month.

Former Pentagon chief of staff Kash Patel said in a recent interview that documents that were stored at Mar-a-Lago and marked as classified were declassified when Trump left office in January 2021. He says federal officials will have a difficult time proving that those documents weren’t declassified.
