Jan 22, 2023 at 22:17 comment added user16047 @DavidHammen I've deleted the "intentional" quote, which referred to the idea that my question might have been a "trick question" (due to there being more than one passport) and did not refer to to the FBI in any way.
Jan 22, 2023 at 22:12 comment added Mark Dominus @uhoh Note that the warrant specifically authorized the seizure of commingled documents: "any physical documents with classification markings, along with any containers / boxes (including any other contents) in which such documents are located” (emphasis mine). This is for the precise reason that David Hammen explained: the documents commingled with the classified documents are themselves evidence of improper handling, and by whom.

Jan 22, 2023 at 9:33 comment added David Hammen @uhoh It certainly was intentional. The FBI wanted evidence that showed that Trump himself had taken those documents he allegedly shouldn't have taken. This happens frequently, where people commingle allegedly damning documents with documents of a very personal nature such as a passport. The existence of that commingling shows the person almost certainly knew about the allegedly damning evidence. Otherwise they could claim that they were clueless; the presence of the damning documents was the work of a minion.
Jan 22, 2023 at 9:17 comment added dandavis he has a blue one like everyone does, a black one (diplomatic) from his first year out of office, and a third one of unknown quality, perhaps a maroon one used for officials w/o diplomatic capacities or an old expired blue one. We know they took 3, he could have even more...
Jan 22, 2023 at 9:12 comment added dandavis Trump actually has 3 passports, so it's a bit of a trick question.
