The return date of the subpoena was May 24, 2022. DOJ COUNSEL also sent FPOTUS
COUNSEL 1 a letter that permitted alternative compliance with the subpoena by "providing any
responsive documents to the FBI at the place of their location" and by providing from the
custodian a "sworn certification that the documents represent all responsive records." The letter
further stated that if no responsive documents existed, the custodian should provide a sworn
certification to that effect.

On May 25, 2022, while negotiating for an extension of the subpoena, FPOTUS
COUNSEL 1 sent two letters to DOJ COUNSEL. In the second such letter, which is attached as
Exhibit 1, FPOTUS COUNSEL 1 asked DOJ to consider a few "principles," which include
FPOTUS COUNSEL 1's claim that a President has absolute authority to declassify documents. In
this letter, FPOTUS COUNSEL 1 requested, among other things, that "DOJ provide this letter to
any judicial officer who is asked to rule on any motion pertaining to this investigation, or on any
application made in connection with any investigative request concerning this investigation."

I am aware of an article published in Breitbart on May 5, 2022, available at
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2022/05/05/documents-mar-a-lago-marked-classified-were-
already-declassified-kash-patel-says/, which states that Kash Patel, who is described as a former top FPOTUS administration official, characterized as "misleading" reports in other news
organizations that NARA had found classified materials among records that FPOTUS provided to
NARA from Mar-a-Lago. Patel alleged that such reports were misleading because FPOTUS had
declassified the materials at issue!
