Newly revealed evidence in a legal case shows that a former Trump White House assistant, who had daily access to the former president and the Oval Office, changed sides and worked with the FBI.
Here is the part of the government display that has the identity of the former Trump White House assistant removed:
The group of top White House assistants who saw Trump and the Oval Office every day is not large. One particular name stands out: former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows.
Meadows had daily access to Trump and the Oval Office. If it turns out to be Meadows who cooperated with the FBI investigation, it would clarify how Special Counsel Jack Smith has such detailed information about how the secret documents were managed at the White House and reached Trump's residence.
The authorities had a person who was in the Oval Office with Trump working with them.
While the criminal trial in Manhattan is beginning, a major federal criminal case in Florida is still ongoing.
If Jack Smith can remove Aileen Cannon from the picture and proceed with this trial, the case involving secret documents could make the hush money trial in Manhattan seem insignificant.
