The White House announced that the FBI had returned boxes of documents taken from Donald Trump’s Florida property during his first term as president. Trump claimed victory on social media, stating that he did nothing wrong and that justice has now been restored. The FBI returned roughly 15 boxes of documents, with White House staff loading them onto Air Force One for transport to Florida. White House officials criticized the special counsel who initiated the investigation, referring to it as a hoax. Trump’s classified documents case was dismissed the previous year after it was found that the investigation had violated the law. The Justice Department dropped the case after Trump won the presidential election and a federal judge dismissed the charges. Trump had pleaded not guilty to charges of retaining national defense information, making false statements, and conspiring to obstruct justice. Co-defendants Walt Nauta and Carlos De Oliveira also had their case dropped. The Justice Department cited longstanding policy against prosecuting a sitting president as one reason for dropping the case. Trump celebrated the return of the boxes of documents, calling it a victory for justice and claiming that he was unfairly targeted for political reasons.
