(Bloomberg) -- Former President Donald Trump publicly said that one reason that the FBI found boxes of classified documents improperly stored at his Florida estate was that federal workers had packed up the White House after his 2020 defeat.

But documents obtained by Bloomberg News under a Freedom of Information Act request suggest a different story. More than 100 pages of emails and shipping lists between White House and transition staff and the US General Services Administration describe the minutiae of moving the Trump White House from Washington, DC, to Florida, down to how many rolls of bubble wrap and tape, all within a plan signed by then-Chief of Staff Mark Meadows.

One thing is clear: The boxes were packed when the movers got there.

While the records don’t specify what the boxes contained, they provide the most detailed account to date of how the GSA assisted the outgoing administration between January and September 2021.

After the FBI’s unprecedented Aug. 8 search of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate, the former president and his allies, including Fox News’s Sean Hannity, Stephen Bannon’s Breitbart News and former Trump defense official Kash Patel, have claimed that Trump can’t be held legally responsible for the dozens of boxes of highly classified documents found around Mar-a-Lago because the GSA — essentially the federal government’s office and property manager — was in charge of filling boxes and shipping them. 

 


 Vladimir Putin could use nuclear weapons against "a half-dozen cities in western Ukraine" in a last-ditch bid to avoid military defeat, according to an expert on nuclear war.

Russia's military has suffered a number of battlefield reverses, with Ukrainian troops advancing on the southern city of Kherson after routing Russian forces in the Kharkiv region in September.

This has sparked growing concerns that the Kremlin could resort to nuclear attacks, with U.S. President Joe Biden warning the risk of nuclear war is at its highest since the 1962 Cuban missile crisis.

Speaking on Thursday in New York, the president said: "We have not faced the prospect of Armageddon since Kennedy and the Cuban missile crisis [in 1962]."

Referring to Putin, Biden added: "We've got a guy I know fairly well. He's not joking when he talks about potential use of tactical nuclear weapons or biological or chemical weapons because his military is, you might say, significantly underperforming."

Professor Eric G. Swedin, who teaches history at Weber State University, told Newsweek he didn't think Putin could deploy tactical nuclear weapons on the battlefield, or in a "demonstration strike" intended to intimidate Ukraine and the West. Instead, Swedin said Putin would likely go straight to direct attacks on major Ukrainian cities.

"I am worried that Putin is being backed into a corner on Ukraine as his armed forces face defeat," said Swedin. "He could easily choose to lash out with tactical nuclear weapons in a desperate attempt to change the outcome.
