Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche revealed that the Department of Justice discovered a room containing documents from former special counsel Jack Smith's investigation into Donald Trump. The room, described as 'forgotten' rather than 'secret,' was found to contain materials in burn bags—typically used for destroying sensitive documents. Blanche made the disclosure during an appearance on the 'Hang Out with Sean Hannity' podcast, noting that personnel were unaware of the room's existence. The discovery follows similar findings by FBI Director Kash Patel and former FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino, who reported uncovering sensitive documents related to the Trump-Russia probe in burn bags. Blanche suggested that an 'honorable' agent may have intentionally preserved the documents by placing them in an unconventional location. The documents were found in April, with Bongino describing them as a 'mother lode' tied to the Russiagate investigation. The DOJ has not yet provided further details on the contents or implications of the discovery.
