Trump claims he had the authority as President. That will be for the courts to decide.

Remember that pic of all the documents at Mara Largo ? Why would they throw top secret documents on the floor, then take a picture ?
Kinda reminds you of a perp walk so the "good guys" can get a photo op and pump up the case for headlines.
Strangely enough, we didn't see piles of "evidence" when Joe screwed the pooch did we ?
The FBI was following Standard Operating Procedures for crime scene photography. This wasn't their first rodeo.
The FBI almost certainly took pictures of the scenes of the Biden documents and the Pence documents, but we don't see them because neither Biden nor Pence are contesting that classified documents were discovered in their possession and there were no court orders required to search the premises--it was all voluntary. The Trump documents were released as part of a court filing because Trump is contesting the issue.

Kash Patel stated after the subpoena when all the docs with classified markings were supposed to be returned and Trump named him a record keeper, did a video interview with an obscure Facebook channel stating he was just now on the job and they were "going to get these docs declassified and out to the people". So, at that time, after the subpoena,he's now on the job and stated publicly that there were still classified docs on the premises. I posted the link numerous times.

Nope. Senators and VPs have authority to possess classified information. When they stop being Senators and VPs, they don't, unless they've been given a security clearance by the incoming administration. Same with Presidents. When they're sitting Presidents they can possess classified info all they want. The moment they stop being President, they have no more right to classified info than any other civilian.

What other former POTUS has been raided again?

Neither was Trump. Thus the turning over of documents, visits from the feds and the lock on the door.
More hackery from you.

No they weren't. Evidence photographs are taken without moving evidence. Otherwise it's tainted and not allowed in Court. Boiiinnngggg 😁
