Former President Donald Trump has declared himself ‘innocent’ and slammed his successor Joe Biden’s claim that he knew nothing about the FBI raiding Mar-a-Lago to seize documents.
Trump ranted on his Truth Social platform early Thursday, the day of the Justice Department’s deadline to submit a redacted version of the search affidavit.
‘Even though I am as innocent as a person can be, and despite MY campaign being spied on by the Radical Left, the FISA COURT being lied to and defrauded, all of the many Hoaxes and Scams that were illegally placed on me by very sick & demented people, and without even mentioning the many crimes of Joe and Hunter Biden, all revealed in great detail in the Laptop From Hell,’ Trump wrote, ‘It looks more and more like the Fake News Media is pushing hard for the Sleaze to do something that should not be done!’
In another post, Trump questioned Biden’s claim that he had no prior knowledge of the FBI executing the search warrant on August 8.
‘I didn’t have any advance notice,’ Biden said on Wednesday. ‘None, zero, not one single bit.’
Trump wrote: ‘Joe Biden said he knew nothing about the Break-In of Mar-a-Lago or, the greatest political attack in the history of the U.S. Does anybody really believe this???’
He continued by accusing ‘Radical Left Democrat prosecutors’ of trying to circumvent the Presidential Records Act, ‘under which I have done absolutely nothing wrong’.
‘It can not be circumvented, for me or any other President,’ Trump said.
The act gives a former president some rights to access and limit access to official documents. However, it rules out the possibility of an ex-president keeping official records after the term in office ends.
Trump’s last post of the morning stated that the Justice Department and FBI are ‘”leaking” at levels never seen before’, and, ‘I did nothing wrong!!!’
