The Mar-a-Lago raid has brought out the worst instincts of the pundit class.
We all know by now that, last week, the FBI raided former president Donald Trump’s private home, in Mar-a-Lago, and retrieved 20 boxes. We know from the now unsealed search warrant and property receipt that these boxes included a host of documents, including Roger Stone’s executive grant of clemency, a leatherbound box of documents, two binders of photos, a handwritten note, an item labelled ‘Info re: president of France’, and 11 sets of classified documents. Some of these were marked top secret.
