The Trump documents affair: the prosecutor refuses to reveal the evidence Israel today

Against the background of the revelation by the "Washington Post" that the documents confiscated from Donald Trump's estate last week are related to nuclear weapons - the US Department of Justice announced this morning (Tuesday) that it opposes the disclosure of the evidence against the former US president, which led to the Federal Bureau of Investigation's raid on his residence in Florida.

In a notice to the court of the Ministry of Justice, it was stated that the disclosure of the evidence would cause "irreparable damage" to the investigation file.

The announcement was made after several media outlets petitioned a federal court to see the affidavit that led to the raid.

"If revealed, the affidavit could serve as a road map for the government's activities in a criminal investigation, and would reveal future steps in a way that could disrupt future investigative steps," the Ministry of Justice said in a statement.

"The temperature must drop"

For the first time since the raid on his Mar-a-Lago estate, former President Donald Trump gave an interview to Fox News and said he would "do everything he can to help the country."

He further added that "the temperature must drop" and that "the public will not stand quietly in the face of another fraud".

Days after the Federal Bureau of Investigation entered his home in Palm Beach, Florida and took away boxes of materials including documents allegedly classified as "top secret", Trump is trying to minimize damage.

In this context, he claimed that his lawyers offered the legal office their help in the investigation.

"The public will not stand still."

"If there is anything we can do to help, I and my people, we will certainly be ready to do it," the former president said while warning against the stormy winds mainly among his supporters who went on spontaneous protests after the Haf raid.

Trump added that "the country is in a very dangerous situation, there has never been such a time when law enforcement was used to break into the home of a former US president, and there is tremendous anger in the country - at a level never before seen, except in very dangerous times.

Years of scams and witch hunts, and now this."

Also, the former president said that during the searches, the FBI agents "could have taken and even 'left' in my house whatever they wanted", in a strong allusion to planting evidence against him.

"My people were asked to wait outside," he clarified.
