The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) requested the Justice Department to examine Trump's handling of White House records in February. This investigation eventually led to the raid of his private residence at Mar-a-Lago earlier this month.
"The Biden administration's raid on President Trump's home is an outrageous, reckless, and unprecedented abuse of power," Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton explained to Fox News Digital. "And the American people have an urgent right to know how the Biden administration manufactured the records dispute used as a pretext for the raid on Trump's home."

Fitton continued: "The Biden administration's unlawful secrecy on its political raid of Trump's home speaks volumes."

Judicial Watch is asking for all of the related records of communication between any official or employee of NARA, any official or employee of the Department of Justice, and any other branch, department, agency or office of the federal government.

The organization is also requesting records about the retrieval of records from Trump, or any individual or entity acting on his behalf, by NARA.
Judicial Watch, in a separate case, has moved to unseal all warrant materials, including the affidavit, that the Justice Department used to justify the raid on Trump's Mar-a-Lago.

U.S. Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart, who signed the search warrant, formally ruled Monday that the Justice Department propose redactions to the original affidavit so that he can review it to determine whether it can be released to the public.

Reinhart said that "given the intense public and historical interest in an unprecedented search of a former President's residence," the Justice Department has "not yet shown" that the affidavit has to stay sealed.

The Justice Department has until Thursday at noon to submit the affidavit with its proposed redactions after claiming that unsealing the document would jeopardize its ongoing investigation.
In the meantime, Fox News reported this week that the Biden White House, at the request of the Justice Department, signed off to have the FBI and the intelligence community review hundreds of pages of classified documents Trump turned over to NARA this spring.

Meanwhile, CNN and MSNBC have raised eyebrows by providing significant airtime to fired ex-FBI official Peter Strzok to defend the raid of former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home, as critics feel the disgraced former agent is the last man who should be dispatched to claim an investigation is unbiased.

Strzok was removed from the Robert Mueller Russia investigation in 2017 and fired by the FBI in 2018 in part for exchanging anti-Trump texts with his lover Lisa Page while overseeing critical investigations. Yet he has been put in a position to safeguard the raid of Mar-a-Lago on a near-daily basis.
