There was this nugget in the Attachments of the DOJ Response, to Trump motion to have a Special Master assigned (presumably to slow down the investigation into his Documents theft).
And the nugget is the May 11, 2022 Subpoena commanding Donald Trump to turn over the Government Documents that he was not supposed to have. Specifically the Classified and Secret documents being sought, were legally enumerated in this Grand Jury Subpoena (pg 47 of 54 — Attachment C):
And within those Classified and Secret documents being sought, were those with the classification rating of S/FRD. And as a Washington Post reporter figured out late last night, that classification rating of S/FRD has to do with Atomic and Nuclear Secrets:
Chapter 7.
CLASSIFICATION LEVELS
https://sgp.fas.org/library/quist2/chap_7.html
Federation of American Scientists — Government Secrecy, Classifications
[...]
The U.S. classification of information system has three classification levels -- Top Secret, Secret, and Confidential -- which are defined in EO 12356.2 Those levels are used both for NSI and atomic energy information (RD and FRD).
[...]
There is very little classified atomic energy information (RD or FRD) that is assigned a Top Secret classification level by the DOE. Most RD and FRD are classified at either the Confidential or Secret levels. Although some other federal agencies (e.g., DoD) use the Top Secret classification level much more frequently than does DOE, within the entire U.S. Government only 4% of the original classification decisions made in FY 1991 were assigned a Top Secret classification level.*
[...]
Secret Information
The Secret classification level "shall be applied to information, the unauthorized disclosure of which reasonably could be expected to cause serious damage to the national security."10
So this confirms the previous reports about Trump heading out of Dodge, with Nuclear Secrets tucked away in his U-Haul shipping boxes …
Nuclear Secrets “which reasonably could be expected to cause serious damage to the national security.”
Nuclear Secrets which Donald Trump refused to turn over, when asked nicely by Chief of the Counterintelligence at the DOJ, The National Security Division.

How is this guy not indicted yet? Enough of the kid-gloves treatment.
Donald Trump is a grown-ass adult — who has been lying and conning and cheating most of his adult life. And now apparently we can add “stealing government nuclear secrets” to his rap-sheet, er “resume.”
Enough already. Indictment him. Let him try to slip and slide, and lie his way out of this one.
Let the chips fall where they may. No one would skate, on even one-tenth of what he’s done.
America’s friggin National Security is at stake — enough with the kid-gloves treatment.
Drop the hammer. Now DOJ ... for the sake of the country and the rule of law.

Update:
Based on comments, I have renamed the title of the post, to drop the hyperbolic phrasing:
Trump Subpoena is buried in the "fine print" of the DOJ Response -- like an Atomic Sledgehammer
My apologies.
