Shortly after the FBI visited Mar-a-Lago last year to take back the classified documents that Donald Trump had taken from the White House. One of his longtime 20 year employees decided to leave his job. And it wasn't just any employee, by the way. It was one of the three individuals that Donald Trump tasked with moving the classified documents, uh, according to the indictments in an attempt for the feds to not find them. And again, shortly after the FBI went down there, this employee decided, you know, what time for me to go? I've been here 20 years. But, uh, according to the employee he had, you know, other business ventures that he wanted to pursue. Now, nothing real weird about that, right? I'm sure if the FBI came to visit your boss and took a bunch of stuff he allegedly stole from the government, you'd probably think about leaving your job as well.

But this employee, again, a little bit different. 'cause not only was he one of the people that helped move the classified documents out Mar-a-Lago, but he is also a cooperating witness for the government in the Mar-a-Lago case. This individual was not indicted, but he was very close with both Walt Nada and uh, uh, Carlos de Olivier, the two individuals that were indicted in the document scandal alongside Donald Trump. So cooperating witness helped move the documents, quit his job, then things got weird. Shortly after he left his job, this employee at Mar-a-Lago received a personal phone call on his cell phone from Donald Trump himself. Donald Trump, according to people close to the situation, was just curious. Like, Hey bud, why'd you leave? I really liked you. And Donald Trump was heard saying that he thinks the guy's a good man and he offered to pay for his lawyers if he needs them. And that's not all. After he said, thanks, but no thanks. I do have another business opportunity. He also received a call a little while later from Mr. Deli de Olivier himself, and Mr. De Olivier said, Hey, Trump's got a golf tournament coming up. Uh, we can comp you some tickets if you'd like to come. Oh, and by the way, if you ever want your job back, you just let us know, bud. You know, come on back. We love you. This is great.

So why, right? I mean, people leave companies after decades all the time, I mean, every day in this country. And some of them are very valued. Others, maybe not so much, but to get repeated calls, not just offering to give you your job back, but saying, okay, you don't want your job back. How about all these special perks, right? You want me to pay for lawyers for you? Well, according to the new report, this of course, is exactly what happened. This is CNN exclusive report that they released

Yesterday, and it paints a picture of Donald Trump. That is one of panic. Donald Trump personally reached out to this person who, again, is a cooperating witness. Special prosecutor Jack Smith has shown interest according to people he's interviewed in the conversations that this witness had with Donald Trump and Mr. D Olivier. So we could be looking at potential witness tampering. We could be looking at, you know, possibly some kind of bribery thing, like, Hey, don't spill the beans on me, and I'll give you all this cool stuff. You want to come to a golf tournament, you know, you've only been here 20 years and seen everything there is to see with golf.
