Donald Trump Says His Florida Home "Raided" By FBI

Donald Trump Says His Florida Home "Raided" By FBI

 Former United States (US) President Donald Trump said on Monday that his Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida was "raided" by FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation) agents. However, Trump did not give any indication of why federal agents were at his Florida home.

In a statement posted on Trump’s Truth Social network, Trump said his "beautiful home, Mar-A-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, is currently under siege, raided, and occupied by a large group of FBI agents."

Trump called this an act of "prosecutorial misconduct." This situation added legal pressures on him. The FBI, the domestic intelligence and security service of the United States, did not comment on this matter. Trump was reportedly not present during the raid. Trump reportedly said, "It is prosecutorial misconduct, the weaponization of the Justice System, and an attack by Radical Left Democrats who desperately don't want me to run for President in 2024.”

Multiple US media reports claimed that FBI agents were conducting a court-authorized search at Trump’s home in Florida. Reportedly, raids were related to the potential mishandling of classified documents that had been sent to Trump’s residence. 

Aerial footage of Trump’s residence showed police cars and supporters of Trump outside his house. Trump’s supporters were waving banners with Trump's name. Some senior Republicans also criticized the raid and the Justice Department on social media. 

Earlier this year, the National Archives recovered 15 boxes of documents from Trump's Florida estate. The documents also included correspondence from ex-US president Barack Obama. Subsequently, the National Archives requested that the Justice Department open a probe into Trump's practices.
