the fbi went to the location and secured those documents. on january 5th, 2023, i was briefed on the results of his initial investigation and he advised me that further investigation by a special counsel was warranted. based on his initial investigation, i concluded that, under the special counsel regulations, it was in the public interest to appoint a special counsel. in the days since, while the investigation continued, the department identified mr. herr for appointment as special counsel. this morning, president biden's personal counsel called and stated that an additional document bearing classification markings was identified at the president's personal residence in wilmington, delaware. when i first contacted mr. loush about this matter, he said he could lead the initial investigation but would be unable to accept any longer-term assignment because he would be leaving the department in early 2023 for the private sector. the u.s. attorney and his team of prosecutors and agents have conducted this initial investigation with professionali

we now know that the suspect had been known to the fbi. he had been on the watch list and that fbi officials and agents had actually spoken with him just a few weeks ago after his family had voiced concern. does this suggest to you that perhaps the ball was dropped somewhere between then and now? >> no. i mean, this is going to be a very difficult case i think to understand sort of what happened in that gap period, but this is not uncommon. in some ways the fact that the fbi approached him before is good news because we want families to come forward. in all of these cases, in particular international foreign terrorism in which there's some nexus between an organization and a group and an individual who is becoming radicalizeded, he talks about going there to get trained, and in the absence of him being table do that he plans an attack here. it's the family members who always know, the mother, the wife, the children, so we do want to promote them coming forward. they then talked to him, but he hasn't done anything. he may have -- he obvious

planted evidence and called fbi agents the gestapo. just remind you, more than 300 classified documents have been recovered from mar-a-lago. in today's post, the president does not say that he did not take any, but he suggests that he only took the empty folders they came in. quoting now, remember these were just ordinary inexpensive folders with various words printed on them. but they were a cool keepsake. perhaps the gestapo took some of these empty folders when they raided mar-a-lago encounter them as documents which they are not. it is also possible that the trump hitting marxist thugs in charge will plant documents while they are in possession of the material. he ends by saying quote, i did nothing wrong, joe did. joining us now is chief correspondent co-anchor -- senior political correspondent. i don't want this point, but it is startling for me to hear a former president of united states calling fbi agents gestapo and suggesting that they planted things against the former president. >> it's normal for him, but not normal. one of

it's pretty straight forward that the fbi and doj have done time and again. it's figure out the total of what the classified information is, make sure you have it all back and set aside figuring out what the damage may or may not have occurred in terms of an intelligence context, and there's the straight forward similar investigative path of how did it get there? how did they place it there? what did he do? did they know who was in there? who had access to it? at the end of the day, you need to sit down with the person who ultimately had ownership of this. in this case, president biden, and ask them some pretty straight forward questions. you know, what did you know? did you have any soupervisory authority over this? there are very standard things he needs to be asked, and i really expect that at the end of the day, that he will be asked, and he will sit down and be interviewed by a mixture of both agents and attorneys from the department of skrus. >> s.e., it's been remarkable to watch how fortunes have turned on a dime. the democrats were feeling quite good
