Trump aide’s legal group: Biden’s team WAS involved in authorizing Mar-a-Lago raid

The legal entity headed by Trump’s former senior adviser Stephen Miller claims their independent investigation found that President Joe Biden was involved in authorizing the FBI to raid Mar-a-Lago last year.

America First Legal filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request which they say resulted in the FBI discovering that the data had initially been accessed through a “special access request” from the Biden White House.

“I called it the morning of the Mar-a-Lago attack. Biden knew everything!!!” Trump’s middle son Eric Trump tweeted in response to the new report.

The latest revelations from the conservative world come after reports say Biden officials were “baffled” when they learned the morning of the raid on social media.

New claims from America First Legal, led by former Trump senior adviser Stephen Miller, say a response to a FOIA request proves President Joe Biden’s White House was involved in authorizing the FBI’s raid on former President Donald Trump last year

America First Legal, self-described as a “long overdue response to the ACLU,” calls on the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) to turn over material related to Biden’s involvement in the raid on Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate .

In August 2022, the FBI raided Trump’s residence in Palm Beach, Florida to obtain documents and materials he had taken from the White House when they were to be turned over to the National Archives for safekeeping.

Many of the documents had secret markings on them.

Attorney General Merrick Garland held a press conference days after the raid in which he confirmed that he had personally approved the law enforcement action.

America First Legal claims that Biden was also specifically involved in having the raid carried out, calling it a “politically motivated” move.

These claims are only further justified after such classified documents were also found in the homes of both former Vice President Mike Pence and President Joe Biden — but no FBI raids were conducted on their residences.
