Florida Senator Marco Rubio, who was among the Republican lawmakers defending Trump, tweeted: “Anyone threatening violence over the Mar-A-Lago raid should be arrested.”
It comes after agents removed more than 20 boxes from Trump’s Florida estate, including 11 sets of classified documents.
Those top secret materials are the focus of investigators, tracking down who has seen or handled them. Investigators even searched for fingerprints.
As agents question former Trump administration officials to find out if any of the information was compromised.
