Federal prosecutors obtained an audio recording of a summer 2021 meeting in which former President Donald Trump acknowledges withholding a confidential Pentagon document about a potential attack on Iran. The audio would indicate that Trump is aware that he kept classified material after leaving the White House.
The meeting in question dates back to July 2021 and was held at Trump's golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, with two people who worked on the autobiography of Trump's former chief of staff. The participants, according to the sources, did not have security clearances allowing them to access confidential information.
