(Patriot.Buzz) – In a shocking breach of privacy, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has released sensitive immigration records of Amalija Knavs, former First Lady Melania Trump’s late mother.
This evident violation has not only outraged the Trump family but also raised serious concerns about the government’s handling of personal information and the security of former First Families.
The Heritage Foundation received around 165 pages of Knavs’ immigration documents through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.
The DHS shockingly released these records just 11 days after the request. They contain highly sensitive information, including Knavs’ Slovenian passport, naturalization certificate, permanent resident card, holiday destinations and past addresses.
The Trump family’s immigration lawyer Michael Wildes swiftly condemned the release, stating:
“Mrs. Trump is rightfully upset. This egregious and abhorrent violation of Ms. Knavs’s immigration file—including highly sensitive medical information and addresses that impact her family’s security—is an outlandish affront, not just to Ms. Knavs, and her family including former First Lady Melania Trump, but also to the very notions of confidentiality and privacy.”
The release of these documents has exposed the Trump family to potential security threats. Wildes emphasized, “The US government has once again not paid adequate attention to the security and safety of a former First Family.”
Wildes pointed out, “That the DHS released Ms. Knavs’s immigration file after only 11 days further screams the impropriety of this request. How could the DOJ and Secret Service allow this breach?”
“Mrs Trump is exploring all options, we spoke yesterday. The US government has once again not paid adequate attention to the security and safety of a former First Family,” Wildes continued.
“We find it mean-spirited and insensitive to drag a totally innocent party into whatever issue they have with Prince Harry,” the lawyer added. “To say nothing of the potential security threat to the former First Lady and her surviving family members.”
The Trump family is not taking this violation lightly. Wildes confirmed that Melania Trump “will be looking to explore retaliatory options to protect her family.”
