Mar-a-Lago special master orders Trump team to back up any claims of FBI 'planting' evidence

Judge Raymond Dearie, the court-appointed special master, said in a filing Thursday that Trump's team needs to submit a sworn declaration saying if they believe the Justice Department included any items on their "inventory" of materials taken from Mar-a-Lago that were not actually seized during the search. 

The declaration must include "a list of any specific items set forth in the Detailed Property Inventory that Plaintiff asserts were not seized from the Premises on August 8, 2022," Dearie wrote in the order.

...Trump himself, some of his attorneys, and several of his outside Republican allies have publicly claimed that the FBI planted evidence at Mar-a-Lago during the August 8 search.

However, they have offered no evidence to support these accusations.
 
No you gotta swear to it in writing under penalty of perjury, you lying bitches. 
 
On Wednesday night, Trump suggested that the FBI planted evidence during the search. He asked Fox News' Sean Hannity, "Did they drop anything into those piles" of materials taken from Mar-a-Lago, "or did they do it later?"

When asked by Hannity if there is video of that, Trump said, "Nah, I don't think so." 
 
The judge set a September 30 deadline for Trump's lawyers to submit this sworn declaration.
 
Eight days, bitches. Eight days. Get fitted for your orange jumpsuit.
