On Aug. 8, FBI agents were in the process of rummaging through Donald Trump’s padlocked basement closet at Mar-a-Lago and removing box after box of top secret files the former president would later say were somehow both declassified and also planted there by the feds for some reason. Of course, all of this was and still is big news, but what’s more remarkable is that St. Petersburg-based publisher Peter Schorsch knew before everyone else, and rather than blogging it himself on his site, Florida Politics, he just humbly gave it to every reporter in a tweet, saying “TBH, Im not a strong enough reporter to hunt this down, but its real.” Well, it turns out it was real, and clearly Peter is a real one, too.
