Trump was warned FBI could raid Mar-a-Lago

In May of last year, shortly after the Justice Department issued a subpoena to former President Donald Trump for all classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago estate, Trump's then-lead attorney on the matter, Evan Corcoran, warned the former president in person, at Mar-a-Lago, that not only did Trump have to fully comply with the subpoena, but that the FBI might search the estate if he didn't, according to Corcoran's audio notes following the conversation.

Only minutes later, during a pool-side chat away from Trump, Corcoran got his own warning from another Trump attorney: If you push Trump to comply with the subpoena, "he's just going to go ballistic," Corcoran recalled.

Corcoran's recollections, captured in a series of voice memos he made on his phone the next day, help illuminate Trump's alleged efforts to defy a federal grand jury subpoena, and appear to shed more light on his frame of mind when he allegedly launched what prosecutors say was a criminal conspiracy to hide classified documents from both the FBI and Corcoran, his own attorney. Trump has pleaded not guilty to all charges against him and has denied any wrongdoing.

The recordings, which have become a key piece of evidence in special counsel Jack Smith's classified documents case against Trump, contain information that was later described in Smith's publicly released indictment and in media reports -- but many of the details in them have never been made public. ABC News has reviewed copies of transcripts of the recordings, which appear to show the way Trump allegedly deceived his own attorney, and how classified documents, according to prosecutors, ended up at Mar-a-Lago in the first place.

'You're Not My Boss': Mike Lindell Lashes Out at 'Rotten, Horrible Lawyers' and Judge in Deposition

My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell lashed out at the “rotten, horrible lawyers” and a federal judge during his deposition as part of a defamation lawsuit from former Dominion Voting Systems employee Eric Coomer over his claims that the 2020 election was rigged.

At the beginning of the deposition, after a lawyer told Lindell to speak slowly so the court reporter could take down his words, Lindell shot back, “Don’t sit and scold me already, mister. I’ll do whatever I have to do.” Throughout the rest of the deposition, Lindell hit the lawyers with insult after insult.

“You’re just a lawyer, you’re an ambulance-chasing lawyer, so don’t start with me. I got all day,” he protested. “I’ll take as much time as you want, so let’s go. You’re not my boss, you’re just a lawyer, frivolous lawyer.” After one of the lawyers asked Lindell, “Why did you call me an ambulance chaser?” the My Pillow CEO replied, “Because you are. This is a frivolous case and if you’re representing this guy and you’ve read this case, you are a disgusting lawyer, period.”

Lindell continued, “I can’t believe anybody would take this. This is absolutely disgusting, it’s a disgrace to our country, it’s a disgrace to you.” Upon being reminded that “there’s a federal judge that’s going to likely be reading and watching this deposition,” Lindell said, “I don’t care. She should have dismissed this a long time ago. She hasn’t ruled on that, there’s a problem. I got a problem with her too.”
