CONFIRMED: As Gateway Pundit Reported — FBI Doctored Mar-a-Lago Photo, Added Their Own Docs that DON’T MATCH INVENTORY REPORTS

Joe Hoft at The Gateway Pundit published this earlier this week…

The FBI created a fake crime scene at Mar-a-Lago by adding their own documents to the scene and doctoring the photo they released in their report and to the press. 

As The Gateway Pundit reported earlier — This is against the law.

The DOJ responded in a lawsuit this week to President Trump’s request to a Florida Court to review the FBI raid of his iconic property Mar-a-Lago.

In the DOJ’s response, the DOJ included a document they claim was taken at Mar-a-Lago during their raid.

The photo was all over the news on Wednesday, August 31, the day after it was provided to the court.

The Independent made fun of the Time Magazine cover on the right side of the photo that the DOJ apparently wanted to include in the photo so that they could show that President Trump is so vain.   There was no need for this Time Magazine piece in the picture.

The Daily Mail said “Trump KEPT framed Time cover of ‘enemies’ knocking at his window among the collection of classified files – including documents marked ‘Top Secret’ and those based on ‘human intelligence’ – sprawled across Mar-a-Lago”.

This was all a lie.  The FBI created the crime scene, inserted their own documents, and then photoshopped the document.  What a disgrace.  

1. We know that the FBI wanted to make this look like a crime scene.

We know this because at the bottom of the photo provided to the court there is the number 2A, indicating that this was a crime scene photo as well as a type of tape measure across the bottom of the photo.  The corrupt FBI threw the photos on the floor themselves.  They staged this.

We know this because the containers were right next door.  The documents would have been placed on a table had the FBI wanted to take a picture of the documents.  Showing them as scattered across the floor is for show to indicate they were found this way, a lie we explain below.  Also, the cabinets are right next to the documents, which is likely where they were stored.  They weren’t stored on the floor.

2. The FBI inserted documents into the photo. 

The cover sheets in the above photo that were red, yellow, and brown were inserted by the FBI.  They are the FBI’s cover sheets.  We know this for various reasons.  The Trump White House did not need these cover sheets in the documents they held because they had their own cover sheets.

If you look closely at the photo above, the document right above the 2A is folded back.  The papers are stapled together as they should be.  If you look at that batch you see there already was a cover sheet on that document.  It says “Please store in…”.  That is the real cover sheet.

The red, yellow, and brown cover sheets were inserted.  If you look closely at the yellow cover sheets, they are paper clipped to the documents.  The documents would have been stapled.  They are paperclipped because they were inserted by the FBI.

Also, the front cover sheet in brown, showing SCI, says the following wording:

Handling, storage, reproduction, and distribution of the attached document must be in accordance with the applicable executive orders statutes and agency implementing regulations.

This document was inserted.  The FBI inserted this to indicate that the “agency implementing regulations” – i.e. the DOJ – is involved in the maintenance of these records but this is not the case.  The President has the right to documents that are his.  They are his property and an inserted document saying something different is simply not true.   

3. The photo was altered or photoshopped after it was taken (i.e. the FBI was tampering with evidence).

Throughout the picture there are sections in white.  It would be proper for the FBI to take pictures of the crime scene and then add paper to cover up the classified info and then take photos to cover up any classified information.  However, we know that these white sections are redactions to the photo.

When looking a the picture above, you can see that the white space was added to the picture by the white outlines around the black boxes in the first photo above.  These photos were tampered with.

Finally, did the FBI Agents who invaded the President’s home have the proper credentials to review classified information?  How about the agents who made the call to photoshop the photo?  How about the employees who photoshopped the photos?  Were they properly credentialed?

UPDATE —  NOW THERE IS MORE CONFIRMATION THAT THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT TOOK PLACE….

Investigative reporter Paul Sperry reported on Friday that:

** There is a major discrepancy between the “detailed property inventory” DOJ filed with the court and the inventory receipt the FBI gave Trump’s attorney the day of the search.

** Nowhere on the detailed inventory sheet does it list docs with “Top Secret/SCI documents” as it states on item “2A” of the receipt.

** The photo of “2A” items shows coversheets with “Top Secret/SCI” on them, yet again, the detailed inventory does not account for any SCI material.

** This is the most sensitive classified information requiring reading in a secure SCIF facility.

 

Paul Sperry:  BREAKING: A major discrepancy has surfaced between the “detailed property inventory” DOJ filed with the court and the inventory receipt the FBI gave Trump’s attorney the day of the search. Nowhere on the detailed inventory sheet does it list docs with “Top Secret/SCI documents” as it states on item “2A” of the receipt. Also, the photo of “2A” items shows coversheets with “Top Secret/SCI” on them, yet again, the detailed inventory does not account for any SCI material, which is the most sensitive classified information requiring reading in a secure SCIF facility. Was there, in fact, no such material found at Mar-a-Lago? Did DOJ mislead the court — and public — with that staged photo it included as an exhibit? 

Via Paul Sperry on GETTR.

If this is indeed the case that the FBI inserted their own documents into the photo, then they created a false crime scene.

They inserted docs.  They tampered with evidence.  And the FBI broke the law — NOT President Trump.
