National security experts and former federal prosecutors have told The Independent the classified material identified in 15 boxes of records retrieved from former president Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence by National Archives and Records Administration (Nara) officials could pose a more perilous threat to his freedom and his plans for a 2024 presidential campaign than any investigation into his attempt to overturn the 2020 election.
According to Archivist of the United States David Ferriero, Nara officials have found items bearing markings used to identify classified materials within the boxes, which he said are still being inventoried.
