Update On President Trump’s “Ark of the Covenant”
I brought you a crazy story about the Ark of the Covenant residing at Mar-a-Lago…or at least a replica of one.
Here was that report and I’ll also post it down below:
FACT CHECK: Does Trump Really Have a Replica of the Ark of the Covenant at Mar-a-Lago?
But now I have an update.
Laura Loomer posted this:
No he didn’t. The Ark was made by a supporter. It was unveiled at a private dinner at Mar a Lago with about 20 people.
I know, because I was one of the people who was invited and in attendance at the dinner which was very focused on the topics of spiritual warfare and Judaism. https://t.co/LbMEiMmGvP pic.twitter.com/FUoJamkTiw

Ok, so we now have photos of Laura Loomer and James O’Keefe posing for photos next to the replica Ark and we can say the pictures are real.
And according to Loomer, the Ark is a replica made by a support.
Talk about an incredible gift!
Loomer also reports that the unveiling of the Ark Replica was at a private, intimate dinner of about 20 people and it was very focused on spiritual warfare and Judaism:

Oh my!
What a time we are living in folks.
You are literally watching the Bible come to life before your very eyes.
And no, I don’t mean Trump is some god-like figure or savior….stop with that nonsense.
But I do mean he seems very open to letting God work through him and he sees the grand spiritual battle between good and evil that is currently playing out. And by housing a Replica Ark at Mar-a-lago, he seems to be publicly stating for all to see which side he is on!
Wise choice, I’d say.
Many have joked that Trump stole the real Ark of the Covenant:

Not only that but he also has the Tesla Papers in addition to the Ark of the Covenant:

All funny stuff!
Except those Tesla Papers are not replicas, they are believed to be Nikola Tesla’s original works, which he gave to President Trump’s uncle, John Trump, and which many believe President Trump now holds today.
This was my favorite meme post I saw about the Ark….claiming President Trump now has a Noah’s Ark in his front yard at Mar-a-lago:

I don’t care who you are, that’s funny stuff!
But let’s wrap up back on the serious part of this story.
Others have pointed out that a Replica Ark showing up at MAL reminded them of the claim that authentic Israeli artifacts have made their way from the State of Israel, to Trump’s White House and now to MAL.
I’m not saying this is true, but I’m saying this is what is being reported.
The Guardian has more details on that story:
Ancient artefacts sent from Israel to the US four years ago on a short-term basis and intended for display at a White House event have ended up at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, according to a report.
The Israeli daily Haaretz reported on Tuesday that antiquities including ancient ceramic oil lamps, part of Israel’s national treasures collection, were shipped to Washington DC with the approval of the then director of the Israel Antiquities Authority, Israel Hasson, for use in a Hanukah candle-lighting event at the White House. The event took place in December 2019, when Trump was in office.
In the end, the oil lamps were not displayed due to US concerns that they may have been taken from the Israeli-occupied West Bank. The antiquities authority’s plan to have the clay candelabra returned via a special courier was disrupted, however, by the outbreak of Covid-19 in early 2020. The pandemic resulted in the artefacts getting “stuck” in the US, since officials did not want to risk using regular shipping channels to return the treasures.
Hasson told Haaretz that Saul Fox, a major American Jewish donor to the antiquities authority who attended the 2019 Hanukah celebration with Trump, was asked to take care of the items until they could be returned safely.
But Israeli officials recently learned that the antiquities eventually ended up at the former president’s Florida estate, which made headlines this year after an FBI raid of the premises revealed boxes full of classified documents were being stored in bathrooms and other spaces after being improperly removed from the White House when Trump left office.
It is not clear how the artefacts ended up at Mar-a-Lago, or whether Trump is aware they are on the premises. Haaretz reported that efforts by senior Israeli officials to retrieve the national treasures have so far failed. A source updated on the affair told Haaretz he would not be surprised if “the items Israel seeks are also eventually found in some bathroom there”.
