Former President Donald Trump said Monday evening that FBI agents have “occupied” his Mar-A-Lago estate. This is the first time in American history that the house for a former President is raided.
In a statement sent shortly before 7 p.m. EDT, Mr. Trump said his home “is currently under siege, raided and occupied by a large group of FBI agents.” He didn’t elaborate on why, but said the raid is the kind of thing that “could only take place in broken, Third-World countries.”
