Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) fired back at Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee after one claimed that former President Donald Trump stored classified documents in a "safe manner" in a Mar-a-Lago bathroom.
"I can't let go that one of my Republican colleagues just stated that the boxes containing national security secrets that were seized at Mar-a-Lago were stored in a safe manner," Swalwell said at a Thursday hearing. "Quote, stored in a safe manner."
Swalwell then shared a poster-sized photograph of boxes of documents in a Mar-a-Lago bathroom.

He noted that Trump's bathroom was "a mess."
"This committee has been a mess, and this Congress is a mess," he added. "This is not stored in a safe manner. It's delusional to say that."
