why they continue to charge. but i do think that there s one thing i find beneficial to trump here, which is that the document they re now charging, so this iran war document, is something that he returned to the department of justice. and that, i think, was the most damning statement that jack smith had, which is that he thought that war document was classified. it turns out he returned that classified document. that opens up the argument that you could say the remaining documents he had, those are the ones he was claiming he declassified. he never used the defense he turned that document back over to the justice department. he was acting like it didn t exist and saying it was just bravado. with the documents investigation they are facing major charges. there s a new codefendant. what is it like to be a trump attorney who is waiting on one indictment and you get this put
former president, now facing three additional charges, neil, in that alleged mishandselling of classified documents case out of florida. two new charges are for obstruction. the former president accused of asking staff to delete surveillance video. there s one new charge of willful retention of national defense information that sources tell fox news pertains to a highly classified iran war document. special counsel smith also added a new defendant in this case, the property manager at mar-a-lago. he s charged with obstruction and making false statements. this one interesting exchange, in the indictment, on page 29, the property manager allegedly told another employee quote the boss wants the server deleted, but that employee responded that he didn t know how do that and didn t believe he had the right to do it. meanwhile, trump spent most of yesterday lashing out at the new indictments on social media, blasting, quote, crooked joe
documents themselves. so, it is not necessarily surprising to me. i guess i am of the mind that there is probably another cooperating witness with the charge. i think there is one thing that i find beneficial to trump here, the document they are not charging, this iran war document is something that he returned to the department of justice. that i think is the most damning statement that he said that jack smith had. he thought that war document was classified. in fact, he returned.classified document. i thing that opens up an argument that you can say that the remaining documents you have had, those were the ones that he thought he declassified. it he was also claiming that he did not even have that document. he never used the defense that he actually turned that document back over to the justice department. he was acting like it did not exist and it was just bravado. but, trumps attorneys in this case, they kind of thought they knew what they were up against
crooked joe biden and his weaponized doj, deranged jack smith is attempting to destroy the lives of two fine people who have worked for me and done a great job for a long time. they are being persecuted with one goal, to get trump. now this comes after jack smith added three new charges for trump, two ob junction of justice charges that relate to alleged efforts to have video footage deleted and one charge for willful retention of national defense information pertaining to what sources have confirmed to fox news is a highly classified iran war document. smith also adding a new defendant in the case, carlos dellavera, the property manager at mar-a-lago, charged in the video deletion as well as charges for making false statements to the fbi. one interest exchange pertaining to the video, on page 29, he allegedly told an unidentified mar-a-lago employee the boss wanted the server deleted and
the boss wants it done. you know what i also thought was pretty shocking, the fact that it seems as if the special counsel has this document in hand, iran war document in hand. nbc news obtaining the audio of the exchange former president with the journalist, waiving these documents. i want to play that. with milly, i ve got to show you an example, he said that i wanted to attack iran. isn t it amazing? i have a big pile up here. this just came out. isn t that amazing? this totally wins my case, you know, except it is highly confident or secret. it s interesting because you hear this audio, and you remember the audio i played at the top of the show, the former president said there isn t a document. these are newspaper clippings.
