But, in the interest of TRANSPARENCY, I call for the immediate release of the completely Unredacted Affidavit pertaining to this horrible and shocking BREAK-IN.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\"><\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>Trump added that &#8220;The Judge on this case should recuse!&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<figure class=\"kg-card kg-image-card\"><\/figure>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>Trump&#8217;s post comes after the Department of Justice requested on Monday that a Florida judge <a href=\"https:\/\/thepostmillennial.com\/breaking-biden-administration-tells-judge-not-to-unseal-affidavit-for-mar-a-lago-search\">keep the affidavit sealed<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ny1.com\/nyc\/all-boroughs\/news\/2022\/08\/15\/house-senate-lawmakers-request-information-donald-trump-fbi-doj-search\">According to New York 1<\/a>, Merrick Garland&#8217;s Justice Department wants to keep the affidavit portion sealed &#8220;to protect the integrity of an ongoing law enforcement investigation that implicates national security.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>According to the 13-page filing, &#8220;If disclosed, the affidavit would serve as a roadmap to the government\u2019s ongoing investigation, providing specific details about its direction and likely course, in a manner that is highly likely to compromise future investigative steps.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>&#8220;The fact that this investigation implicates highly classified materials further underscores the need to protect the integrity of the investigation and exacerbates the potential for harm if information is disclosed to the public prematurely or improperly.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>The warrant enabled more than 30 federal agents to raid Trump&#8217;s Florida home on the belief that Trump and his team had not returned all documents that are deemed government property under the <a href=\"https:\/\/thepostmillennial.com\/trumps-mar-a-lago-home-raided-on-belief-that-former-president-violated-presidential-records-act\">Presidential Records Act<\/a>, specifically materials related to the National Archives and Records Administration.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>On Friday, a judge unsealed the search warrant and property receipt, which revealed that FBI had seized almost two dozen boxes of items from Trump&#8217;s home, including documents marked &#8220;various classified&#8221;
