Up until now, da investigation, dey stay focusin’ mostly on da stuff Mr. Trump wen keep at Mar-a-Lago, his private club an’ place he stay live in Florida 🌴. Dey no stay lookin’ too much at da New Jersey side.

Dis Mark Meadows, he neva go to da meetin’, but two of Mr. Trump’s aides stay dea. One guy, Margo Martin, he always stay recordin’ da interviews Mr. Trump wen give fo da books dey wen write ’bout him dat year 🎙️.

In dis recording, Mr. Trump wen start talkin’ bad ’bout Gen. Mark A. Milley, da chairman of da Joint Chiefs of Staff dat Mr. Trump wen pick himself. Media 📰 wen say dat Gen. Milley stay tryin’ fo stop Mr. Trump from goin’ afta Iran 🇮🇷 in da last days he stay president. Den Mr. Trump wen mention dis document he wen get, an’ he say dat Gen. Milley wen put um togedda, an’ dat da document get someting fo do wit attackin’ Iran. All kine comments he wen make, you know? He wen even talk ’bout how he stay good at puttin’ classified stickers on stuff durin’ da discussion. One person dat stay in da know say you can hear Mr. Trump handle da paper on da tape, but we no know if dat da same document he stay talkin’ ’bout.

So da Justice Department, dey wen get dis recording in recent months. Dis stay one big piece in da whole heap of evidence dat da prosecutors stay gettin’ unda da special counsel, Jack Smith. He stay da guy in charge of all da federal investigations into Mr. Trump since he wen get appointed in November 🕵️.

Dey wen ask Ms. Martin ’bout dis recording wen she wen go in front of da grand jury 👩‍⚖️. Dis one scoop 🥄 from two of da people dat stay in da know.

One lawyer, James Trusty, he stay representin’ Mr. Trump in dis case. An’ he wen talk wit CNN on Wednesday night, an’ he wen say dat Mr. Trump stay takin’ da position dat he wen declassify all da stuff he wen take wit him when he wen leave office 📤.

“He wen leave fo Mar-a-Lago wit boxes of documents dat odda people wen pack fo him, an’ he wen bring um. An’ he stay da commander in chief,” Mr. Trusty wen say. “No get doubt, he get da constitutional authority as commander in chief fo declassify 🔓.”

Mr. Trusty, he say da officials can prove dat Mr. Trump wen declassify da stuff. But den, wen dey wen ask him if Mr. Trump wen declassify dis document he stay talkin’ ’bout at da Bedminster meetin’, Mr. Trusty no like say anyting 🤐.

Eh, da government, dey wen get back ova 300 documents wit classified stickers from Mr. Trump since he wen leave office. First, dey wen return one bunch of documents to da National Archives in January last year. Den, Mr. Trump’s aides wen give odda documents to da Justice Department in June. An’ den, da FBI wen find some kine documents when dey wen search Mar-a-Lago in August. An’ den, dey wen find few odda documents in da searches dey wen do late last year 📦.

One set of documents dat da FBI wen find, dat had da highest level of classification, stay top secret/sensitive compartmented information 🚫.

Mr. Trump, he stay always talkin’ ’bout how he get da power fo automatically declassify stuff. He even wen say he can do um wit his mind, yeah 🧠?

His friends, dey stay sayin’ he wen get one rule dat he can declassify anyting he like wen he wen take um from da Oval Office to da White House residence. But, you know, some foma high-ranking officials from his administration, dey stay sayin’ dat no make sense. Some of his lawyers, dey stay warnin’ his aides fo no depend too much on dat argument as one defense in dis whole documents case ⚖️.

One guy, Kash Patel, he stay one close adviser to Mr. Trump. An’ he wen talk ’bout dis declassification kine stuff wen he wen go in front of da grand jury. He neva had choice, he had fo talk cuz da prosecutors wen force um 🗣️.

Da special counsel’s office, dey stay get dis recording, yeah? An’ dis could help da prosecutors make da argument dat da documents Mr. Trump wen take from da White House wen he leave office neva get declassified. An’ dis could also help dem prove dat Mr. Trump know dat he get limits on what he can do wit classified stuff, like keepin’ um an’ showin’ off 👀.

Plus, da Justice Department, wen dey wen go fo get da warrant fo search Mar-a-Lago last year, dey wen use dis law called da Espionage Act. Dis law, it wen come out wen World War I was goin’ on, long time ago, long before President Harry S. Truman wen make one executive order fo create da modern system fo classify stuff in da executive branch 🕰️.

So, dis Espionage Act, dis law no say nottin’ ’bout wheda one document stay classified or not. All da law say is dat it’s one crime if you keep documents ’bout national defense, an’ if dey can hurt da United States or help one foreign enemy, an’ you no get authorization fo keep um 📜.

Da investigators, dey stay askin’ witnesses ’bout Gen. Milley in all kine interviews fo da past few weeks. But dey no tell ’em straight up wat dey looking fo 🔍.

Da investigators, dey stay get several, if no all, of da recordings from da book interviews Mr. Trump wen give. Dis from two people dat stay in da know an’ know wat stay goin’ on 🎤.

In one of da interviews, Mr. Trump wen say he neva take nottin’ super important wit him. So no need worry, yeah?

But den, wen dey wen ask him if he wen show any classified documents to odda people afta he wen leave da White House, he wen give one kinda wishy-washy answer. At one CNN event in May, he wen say, “No really. I would have da right to. By da way, dey wen declassify um afta” 🗂️.

An’ den, Mr. Meadows, in his book, he wen talk ’bout dis Gen. Milley ting. He wen make um sound like he agree wit Mr. Trump 📚.

“He wen remembah one four-page report dat Gen. Milley wen type himself,” da book wen say. “Dis report, it wen get Gen. Milley’s plan fo attack Iran, an’ he wen tell President Trump fo do dat moa den once wen he stay president. But every time, President Trump wen say no” 🚫.

But den, one person dat stay in da know ’bout dis document, dey stay sayin’ dat da report neva get written by Gen. Milley. An’ it look like it from one earlier time in da Trump administration wen Gen. Joseph F. Dunford Jr. stay da chairman of da Joint Chiefs of Staff an’ Jim Mattis stay da defense secretary 📄.

So, da investigators, dey wen talk wit Gen. Milley ’bout dis. Dis from one person dat stay in da know an’ know wat stay happenin’ 🤝.

🔥 Miami remains a hot topic. The City Hall, and the other side, are in a state of turmoil

Miami remains a hot topic, with City Hall undergoing its fair share of turmoil 🌴🌃. With a robust economy 💰, Miami has even seen its mayor contemplating a run for presidency 🏛️. However, the trial of a city commissioner 👩‍⚖️ has revealed some unflattering details 🕵️‍♂️ about what’s happening behind the scenes in the city.

Federal prosecutors are currently investigating how former President Donald J. Trump 🎩 handled classified documents 📁. They have obtained a recording 📼 from 2021 in which Mr. Trump discusses a significant military document 📄 that he retained after leaving the White House 🏠. This information comes from two sources 👥 who have knowledge about the situation.

In the recording, Mr. Trump appears to acknowledge the document’s secretive nature 🔒 and that he did not declassify it 🔏. This is according to a knowledgeable source 🤫.

The existence of this recording could pose problems 🤦‍♂️ for Mr. Trump. He has repeatedly claimed to have declassified all documents he retained when leaving office. Prosecutors are now examining if he obstructed justice 🚧 by preventing federal officials from retrieving those materials, and if he violated laws about handling classified documents 📜. This news was first reported by CNN 📺.

The recording was made during a meeting in July 2021 with individuals helping his former chief of staff, Mark Meadows, write a memoir about his time in the White House. This meeting took place at Mr. Trump’s club in Bedminster, N.J., his summer residence 🏌️‍♂️.

Investigations have mostly focused on the materials Mr. Trump kept at Mar-a-Lago, his private club and home in Florida 🌴. The recording of the Bedminster meeting introduces a new angle to the case.

At the meeting, Margo Martin, one of Mr. Trump’s aides, recorded his conversations. In these conversations, Mr. Trump criticizes Gen. Mark A. Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, whom he appointed. He references a document supposedly prepared by Gen. Milley related to plans for attacking Iran. There are sounds of paper shuffling in the recording, indicating he may have been handling a physical document during the conversation.

The Justice Department acquired the recording recently, forming part of the growing body of evidence gathered by the special counsel, Jack Smith 🕵️.

When asked about the recording before the grand jury 👩‍⚖️, Ms. Martin confirmed its existence. This is according to two sources in the know.

James Trusty, a lawyer representing Mr. Trump, argued that Mr. Trump, as commander in chief, had the constitutional authority to declassify any material he wished. However, he declined to comment whether Mr. Trump had declassified the document mentioned at the Bedminster meeting 🤐.

Since leaving office, over 300 classified documents have been retrieved from Mr. Trump. These range from those returned to the National Archives in January of last year, to others found during FBI searches of Mar-a-Lago in August, and more uncovered in later searches last year 📦.

In a previous interview, Mr. Trump claimed that he didn’t take anything of great importance when leaving office. When asked if he had shown any classified documents to anyone after leaving office, he gave a vague response, claiming he would have had the right to do so, and that they were declassified afterward 🗂️.

Mr. Meadows, in his book, spoke about the Gen. Milley situation, seeming to agree with Mr. Trump 📚. However, there are doubts about the accuracy of Mr. Meadows’ claims. One knowledgeable source said the report mentioned by Mr. Meadows was not written by Gen. Milley, and seems to date from an earlier time in the Trump administration, when Gen. Joseph F. Dunford Jr. was the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and Jim Mattis was the defense secretary 📄.

Investigators have spoken with Gen. Milley about this, according to a source familiar with the matter 🤝.
