A search of Trump's four properties turned up additional classified documents, which were already given to the FBI.

Former US President Donald Trump's team retrieved two more files marked as "classified" in a Florida storage facility on Wednesday, according to a source.

The FBI has received those files, which were discovered by a team employed by the attorneys of Donald Trump. The source said that a check of four of Trump's properties turned up no further sensitive files, CNN reported.

The Washington Post was the first publication to report on the finding of the confidential records.

The two-person crew looked through Trump Tower in New York, the Bedminster golf club, a Florida office, and the storage facility where the files were discovered and where the General Services Administration had sent Trump's possessions when he left the White House.

The Justice Department's ongoing worries that not all papers had been handed over to the federal authorities prompted the four searches. The CNN report noted that Trump's team of lawyers supervised the latest searches.

Trump's Camp To Coordinate with the Justice Department

Donald Trump's lawyers offered to allow federal investigators to monitor the search of Trump's Bedminster property. The reaction from the Justice Department discouraged a similar offer from Trump's attorneys about the search of the other properties.

Donald Trump's spokesperson, Steven Cheung, said in a statement that former president Donald Trump and "his counsel remain to be helpful and honest, "despite the unprecedented, illegal, and unwarranted attack" targeting President Trump and his family by the "weaponized" Department of Justice."

After discovering thousands of federal records, including over 300 classified ones, at his Mar-a-Lago resort, the agency is looking into how the former president handled them. It is also of interest to the prosecution to learn if Donald Trump actively blocked the government's attempts to recover the documents, according to The New York Times.

Republicans Lambast Trump

The news emerged as some Senate Republicans blast Donald Trump for his string of self-destructive mistakes in the 2020 US Midterms, which will allow GOP competitors to fight and beat him in a 2024 presidential primary.

According to The Hill, GOP legislators think Trump's recent erratic conduct has made him more susceptible in a primary and casts doubt on his ability to defeat President Biden or anyone else in the Democratic Party in a general election.

According to Senate Republican Whip John Thune (S.D.), Trump's most recent self-inflicted injury-in which he suggested canceling the Constitution-creates a great opportunity for other Republicans considering presidential runs.

Thune remarked that compared to other statements made by the former president, this one was on a whole new plane. "This one goes so far beyond the pale that if there is somebody who has aspirations to run, this sure teed it up for them."

Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.), who seldom criticizes the former POTUS, said Trump "would have a very hard time" going back to the White House if he doesn't support honoring the Constitution.

McConnell said to reporters on Tuesday that anybody running for president who believes the Constitution can be "suspended or not followed" would have a "very hard time being sworn in as president of the United States."

In reaction to a story regarding Twitter's content restriction talks before the 2020 election, Trump suggested that all "rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution," be terminated.
