ABC News matches a few of the MAL photo dates to what TFG was fretting about.

The photo shows numerous documents on the floor of Trump's personal office, including colored-coded cover sheets baring classification markings in big, bold lettering.

"An examination of these cover sheets alone tells you a lot," Douglas London, a 34-year CIA veteran, told ABC News regarding the DOJ photo. "As the most important intelligence customer, it should be no surprise that the president receives the most sensitive information -- and that's reflected in these documents."

London interprets a few intel dates and codes and what was happening on those dates.

From the article:

Dates on documents

Even though the contents of the documents can't been seen in the photo, the dates on some documents are visible. While it's not clear how or if the dates correlate to the classified information, they could provide potential clues regarding what Trump was publicly dealing with at the time.

Two documents with a "limited access" marker appear to be dated Aug. 26, 2018. While little else about those documents is visible, it's known that in August 2018, Trump was in the thick of special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into contacts between the 2016 Trump campaign and Russia.

The day before Aug. 26, Trump, posting on Twitter, unloaded on Muller and then-attorney general Jeff Sessions, who had by then recused himself from the Russia probe, according to records maintained by The American Presidency Project by UC Santa Barbara.

One month prior to that, Mueller had indicted 12 Russian military intelligence officers for hacking and releasing Democratic emails during the 2016 campaign.

In addition, days before Aug. 26, 2018, Trump's former campaign manager, Paul Manafort, was found guilty on eight counts of tax fraud.

Aug. 26, 2018, was also the day after Sen. John McCain died.
