it. more that from jessica schneider. reporter: a federal judge in florida says he wants at least some portions of the affidavit justifying the mar-a-lago search made public saying i m not prepared to find that the affidavit should be fully sealed. before deciding, magistrate judge reinhart is giving the justice department one week to propose redactions. the doj has forcefully opposed releasing it saying it could derail their ongoing criminal says. much of our work is by necessity conducted out of the public eye. we do that to protect the constitutional rights of all americans and to protect the integrity of our investigations. reporter: judge reinhart has already released the search warrant and inventory of items taken from mar-a-lago, including 11 sets of classified documents. today he made several more filings public, including the doj s warrant application where they describe the potential offenses being investigated as the willful retention of national defense info
as a potential subject of this criminal probe. this is one of the documents right here. and there is specific language in here about willful retention of documents. in other words, they say, he knew he had them and knew what they were. this is all part of the argument over whether it will release the affidavit justifying the search of mar-a-lago. prosecutors made the case for secrecy because they say evidence may be destroyed. but the judge did set in motion the possibility of releasing a redacted version of the affidavit, a process that could get into gear next week. and ludicrous, ridiculous, bs, those words coming from several former trump officials who are scoffing at the former president and his allies arguments that he had a standing order to declassify documents he took from the white house. cnn reached out to 18 officials and all of them told us they never heard any such thing. we ll have more on that in a moment. first, let s bring in katelyn polantz with more on
information, which suggests officials believe trump knew he had classified documents and released allegedly intentionally did not return them. justice department prosecutors made the case for secrecy warning, quote, evidence might be destroyed. even saying the affidavit would provide a road map as well to the investigation. that does not appear to be resonating with the judge, who set in motion the possibility at least of releasing a redacted version of that affidavit, something that could happen as early as next week. and in a cnn exclusive report, some former trump allies are calling the president s claims that he had a standing order to declassify documents, quote, i ll paraphrase, bs. cnn watched out to 18 former top administration officials from the trump years and all of them told us they never heard of any such order, issued during their time, in the trump administration. but, first, a critical deadline for fulton county, georgia, prosecutors, just expired. they had un
companies whose platforms these extremists are using. sending letters to meta, tiktok, donald trump s true social. the deadline is september 2nd. lawmakers give examples of what law enforcement agents are facing, including this from a pennsylvania man who was arrested for posting online quote if you work for the fbi, then you deserve to die. let s turn now to cnn washington correspondent sunlen serfaty. what exactly does the house oversight committee want these firms to do. reporter: they essentially want data and details in how they re responding to online threats, and very interesting, they certainly use very specific examples that they ve seen on social media recently. that s certainly a powerful effect here of making the point that this has become a problem, and certainly this is in response to the fbi search at trump s mar-a-lago saying that there has been an uptick in violent social media threats against law enforcement. now, this was sent to the eight executives of
around the nuclear power station was extra. it would appear from these satellite images that it is almost certainly untrue. that there has been no significant change in the level of attacks, evidence of attacks since the las images were taken a month ago. so that really gives the lie to longstanding propaganda line, taken by the russians, that the ukrainians are trying to shell their own nuclear power plant to make the russians look bad. that s on the one hand. i ve seen the evidence on the ground myself that missiles are being fired by results troops from very close to that nuclear power station. almost inviting a counter attack. they ve killed people across the dnipro river. so in that context, one can understand the demands being made increasingly stridently by the international community to demilitarize that area. that is why the french president called vladimir putin earlier on today. because of the deep concerns of some kind of military spy catastrophe there. and a fr
