Former President Donald Trump was recently recorded discussing a sensitive military document that he had not declassified while in office, which is consistent with a partial transcript included in his indictment by federal prosecutors this month. The recording was obtained by NBC News and first reported by CNN, and the document discussed is not part of the 31 counts of willful retention of national defense information charged in the indictment. Trump is heard describing the document as "highly confidential, secret" and has since claimed he was not in possession of it when he was talking.
