The Biden-era FBI tracked First Lady Melania Trump and Barron Trump’s travel, while surveilling President Trump’s future Chief of Staff Susie Wiles’ phone, as officials worked the classified documents investigation reaching deep into Trump’s inner circle, newly declassified records<\/a> show.<\/p>\n

Documents released Monday by the White House detail “Plasmic Echo,” the probe later led by special counsel Jack Smith into whether Trump improperly retained classified documents after leaving office. The declassified documents show agents tracked the First Lady and First Son’s travel<\/a> while planning the Mar-a-Lago search, then monitored Susie Wiles\u2019 calls involving defense lawyers, campaign advisers and journalists.\u00a0<\/p>\n
