Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida was raided by the FBI on Monday night, the former president revealed in a furious and lengthy statement. The unannounced search was related to White House documents sought by the National Archives, his son Eric Trump told Fox News later that night. The attorneys had also requested that the National Archives send Trump's team any documents that could be relevant for review. At this point the National Archives had reportedly handed more than 700 pages to the committee. National Archives counsel Gary Stern reportedly first contacted an official in the White House who had been named the point-person for records-keeping matters.
