BREAKING: The Iran memo isn't among the records underlying Donald Trump’s illegal retention charges, a source confirms.
In the recording of the meeting at Trump's Bedminster, New Jersey golf club, the former president can be heard apparently showing and discussing what he described as"highly confidential, secret" documents with aides. Sources say the documents were related to plans for a potential U.S. attack on Iran.
The document and recording are described in the indictment Smith's team secured against Trump earlier this month, recounted as an alleged meeting with"a writer, a publisher, and two members of" Trump's staff,"none of whom possessed a security clearance." Multiple sources familiar with the investigation previously told CBS News that defense attorneys were not certain the Iran memo in question was ever recovered and returned to the government. Still, the 2021 incident is one of two instances referenced in the indictment, in which Smith describes Trump allegedly showing national defense information to individuals without proper clearance.
The existence of the audio tape and the July 2021 meeting was first reported by CNN, which was also first to obtain a recording of the discussion.
