A story/update about a #FOIA lawsuit against FBI @_rshapiro & I have been battling for yrs

In 1997, The Smoking Gun (remember them?) posted an FBI memo from 1981, along w/file #, that said Donald Trump wanted to build a casino in AC & offered to be an informant for the bureau 1/ ImageImageImageImage
I wrote about this document after @NatSecGeek resurfaced it a day before Trump was inaugurated in January 2017

2/

.@_rshapiro & I then filed #FOIA requests with FBI for all documents the FBI had on Trump from 1946 through June 15, 2015, a day before he announced his candidacy for president. We cited the file number from that 1981 FBI memo, which turned out to be someone's informant file
