WASHINGTON, DC: After Donald Trump's former valet Brian Butler confessed to CNN on his involvement in moving the boxes containing confidential documents, several conspiracy theorists on the internet have come up with new meme ideas.

People on the internet have been joking and posting memes stating that Ivana Trump's casket might have contained '10-15 boxes' of ‘classified documents’ as 10 people carried the casket.

Brian Butler's revelation on moving classified documents

Brian Butler provided vital information to federal investigators that shaped last year's criminal obstruction charges against Trump and his two co-defendants, Mar-a-Lago property manager Carlos De Oliveira and Trump personal assistant Walt Nauta. Butler had been closest friends with De Oliveira until recently.

While his former boss has been named in multiple federal investigations, Butler, who worked at Mar-a-Lago for 20 years, has spoken with investigators on multiple occasions, paid for his attorney, and broken away from the Trump orbit he is familiar with. These actions have set Butler apart from his former coworkers and friends.

Butler revealed to CNN how, in June 2022, he unintentionally assisted Nauta in delivering boxes of secret documents from Mar-a-Lago to the former president's aircraft. That same day, Trump and his legal team were meeting at Mar-a-Lago with the Justice Department on the classified materials.

Moreover, Butler claimed that before bringing the car to the West Palm Beach airport, Nauta and De Oliveira loaded it up. When the butler showed up with his SUV loaded with the Trump family's belongings, he assisted Nauta in loading the baggage into Trump's aircraft along with banker's boxes of documents that were inside the Escalade. Butler claims he was unaware of the unusual items within the banker's boxes.



 

Furthermore, Butler resigned from his position as manager and valet at Mar-a-Lago three months after the FBI seized hundreds of federal papers from the resort in August 2022, partly because he was getting impatient to move on.

Internet explodes with memes after Brian Butler's statement

People on the internet posted several memes and trolled Donald Trump after Brian Butler's confession stating that he unknowingly moved boxes of classified documents.

A user on social media platform X wrote, "It’s time to exhume Ivana’s casket which suspiciously required ‘10 pallbearers’ to carry — because it was filled with the missing 10-15 boxes of ‘classified documents’, which Brian Butler’s deposition has exposed as the truth."



 

Another person posted, "Who else thinks there's classified documents stored in Ivana's coffin at Bedminster?" while one stated, "Did you put documents in Ivana's coffin?."



 



 

A person added, "Check Ivana’s grave. You’ll find them in there" while one wrote, "Cue the excavator and apologize to Ivana for disturbing her eternal slumber."



 



 

A person posted, "Yeah Trump stole the nuclear secrets! He hid them in Ivana's casket! Yeah!" while one commented, "#TrumpisaNationalDisgrace and a clear and ongoing danger.. to national security. 'Bedminster' 'Judge Cannon' 'Ivana'"
