The FBI has searched the Mar-a-Lago home of Donald Trump, the former president said in a statement.
“They even broke into my safe,” Trump said on Monday in a lengthy statement describing it as a “raid.”
It was not immediately clear why the agents were present at Mar-a-Lago, but he said it was “under siege, raided, and occupied by a large group of FBI agents.”
“After working and cooperating with the relevant Government agencies, this unannounced raid on my home was not necessary or appropriate,” he said.
The FBI and U.S. Attorney’s offices in Washington and for the Southern District of Florida did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
