Former US President Donald Trump has said his Florida home has been raided by the FBI.

Mr Trump said in a statement Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach was "occupied by a large group of FBI agents".

CBS News, the BBC's US partner, reports that the raid was connected to an investigation into Mr Trump's handling of official papers.

Mr Trump is also currently the focus of a congressional inquiry into last year's US Capitol riot.

According to CNN, Mr Trump was in Trump Tower in New York City at the time of Monday's reported raid.

"These are dark times for our Nation," Mr Trump's statement began.

He said he had co-operated with all relevant government agencies and so the "unannounced raid on my home was not necessary or appropriate".

Mr Trump said it amounted to "prosecutorial misconduct" and "the weaponisation of the Justice System" to prevent him from running for the White House again in 2024.

"Such an assault could only take place in broken, Third-World Countries," he said. "Sadly, America has now become one of those Countries, corrupt at a level not seen before.

"They even broke into my safe!"

CBS News has confirmed that the FBI's execution of the search warrant on Mr Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate was related to an investigation into the handling of National Archives records.

In February, the National Archives, the US government agency that manages the preservation of presidential records, asked the justice department to investigate Mr Trump for his handling of official papers.

US presidents are required by law to transfer all of their letters, work documents and emails to the National Archives.

But officials say the former president illegally ripped up many documents.

Some of them had to be taped back together, the Archives said. Mr Trump at the time rejected reports that he had mishandled official records as "fake news".

A senior Trump adviser in Palm Beach told CBS the raid by federal agents on Mar-a-Lago was about the presidential records.

"This is about the PRA [Presidential Records Act violations]," said the Trump source, who only agreed to speak on condition of anonymity.

"When have you ever heard about a raid because of PRA?"

The source added: "They [the FBI] just left and they left with very little."

A touch dramatic. Dems don't direct the FBI. The director was actually put in place by yer man, Donald.

The director was voted in by the senate or the House, one of the two. Biden directs the FBI and he's used them to raid his political opponent. With all the email wiping and bleaching with Hillary, Trump never resorted to that.

After being nominated by Trump. The senate doesn't pick names out of hats to confirm.

The FBI doesn't work for the president.

Much to Trump’s obvious dismay when they wouldn’t do his personal bidding

You do realise that Hilary was cleared of all accusations, and trump is currently under investigation for stealing/destroying records from his time as pres?

Trump may have done far worse, or he may have committed no offence just like Hilary, but the problem arises that whenever trump is accused of anything, you all jump on grenades and pretend there is no merit to anything.

Come on fella, they've had Hunter Biden's laptop for over two years which incriminate him and his dad. They've got the names in Maxwell's black book and have for a long time. There is video footage of a guy called Ray Epps orchestrating people to go into the capital on January 6th 2021.

These people haven't been touched. But they're gonna raid a former President over some paperwork which he sent back? Doesn't make any sense.

I think there's far more to this than what we know. Maybe there was a reason Trump appointed Wray, maybe Trump wanted Wray front and centre to expose him just like Trump did with Dr Fauci and possibly Mike Pence.

The Q followers believe Wray is a sleeper on Trump's side and this is all part of taking down the FBI. Obviously the Q followers can easily be debunked by simply calling them conspiracy theorists. So we don't need to listen to them

If you think whatever the mainstream media is telling you is what's happening, then you have no clue. Trump has done many rallies himself and you have to listen to what he says because within days of him saying it, things happen. I will try and find a video of what he said on Friday night that connects to what happened last night. I bet there is one.

Its the FBI.

They told you Trump will go full Hitler but the reality is, Biden went full Stalin.

[Alf]

They have plans for us all.
