president s former office in washington, d.c., at the wilmington home and documents found not once but twice there. so now doj effectively taking over that search. and i do want to highlight something that bob bauer said back on january 14th when he outlined the timeline of some of these discoveries. one thing they did note is during that january 11th search of the wilmington home, which was the second search by personal attorneys of that home where they did discover one document which ended up being five pages of documents with classified markings. they said in that statement that once the president s attorneys found that document, they, quote, suspending their search of the specific space where it was located. now we re learning that the department of justice and the president s personal attorneys have essentially been working out an agreement for the department of justice to come in and search that home directly. it s not clear whether these six
