Analysis: Republicans press Garland as intrigue over Trump house hunt heats up

Then on Sunday, several senior Republicans pioneered a new defense of the former president, questioning whether the Mar-a-Lago material was really highly sensitive, citing a president’s powers to declassify classified information.

Then, when the government revealed that the FBI, during its search, had recovered nearly a dozen sets of documents that were marked classified, it suggested that agents had planted evidence.
