前总统唐纳德·特朗普的律师一直无法找到特朗普的敏感军事文件在磁带上讨论过知情人士告诉美国广播公司新闻，在2021年7月在新泽西州贝德明斯特高尔夫俱乐部举行的一次会议上。
消息人士此前告诉美国广播公司新闻，联邦调查人员拥有录音，特朗普承认他在离任后保留了一份敏感的军事文件。
据消息人士透露，在美国广播公司新闻部没有听过也没有获得的录音中，特朗普攻击了参谋长联席会议主席马克·米利，并特别提到了特朗普声称米利编制的一份文件。消息人士称，特朗普在录音中表示，他仍然拥有这份文件，并表示这份文件是关于攻击伊朗的。
消息人士告诉美国广播公司新闻，特朗普的律师交出了文件，以回应3月的一份传票，该传票寻求与米利和伊朗有关的所有文件和材料，包括任何包含入侵计划或地图的材料。
知情人士称，在与特朗普的律师打交道时，特别顾问杰克·史密斯的调查人员表示，他们特别想要特朗普在录音中提到的文件。但是他们找不到它。
同样不清楚的是，特朗普在2021年7月的会议上讨论这份文件时，是否随身携带了这份文件。消息人士称，特朗普在录音中表示，他知道该文件是秘密的。
特别检察官办公室拒绝对美国广播公司新闻发表评论。
据消息人士透露，这段录音是在特朗普与帮助前参谋长马克·梅多斯撰写回忆录的人举行的一次会议上录制的。
本周早些时候，特朗普的一名发言人在给美国广播公司新闻的一份声明中说，“这场政治迫害背后的激进游击队员的泄露旨在加剧紧张局势，并继续媒体对特朗普总统及其支持者的骚扰。”
Trump's attorneys unable to locate sensitive military document he discussed in recording
Attorneys for former President Donald Trump have been unable to locate the sensitive military document that Trump discussed on tape during a July 2021 meeting at his Bedminster, New Jersey, golf club, sources familiar with the matter tell ABC News.
Federal investigators have the audio recording, on which Trump acknowledges he held onto a sensitive military document after leaving office, sources previously told ABC News.
On the recording, which ABC News has not listened to nor obtained, Trump is heard attacking Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley and referencing one document in particular that Trump claimed Milley had compiled, according to sources. Trump, who said on the recording that he still had the document in his possession, said the document was about attacking Iran, sources said.
Trump's lawyers turned over documents in response to a March subpoena seeking all documents and materials related to Milley and Iran, including any materials containing invasion plans or maps, the sources told ABC News.
In their dealings with Trump's lawyers, special counsel Jack Smith's investigators said they specifically wanted the document that Trump referenced on the recording, sources familiar with the matter said. But they were unable to locate it.
It's also not clear whether Trump had the specific document with him during the July 2021 meeting while he was discussing it. Trump indicated during the recording that he knew the document in question was secret, sources said.
The special counsel's office declined to comment to ABC News.
The recording was made during a meeting that Trump held with people who were helping former chief of staff Mark Meadows with his memoir, according to sources.
Contacted earlier this week about the recording, a Trump spokesperson said in a statement to ABC News, "Leaks from radical partisans behind this political persecution are designed to inflame tensions and continue the media's harassment of President Trump and his supporters."
