Patel: He can literally stand over a set documents and say these are now declassified

Devin Nunes blames Obama and Benghazi for the FBI searching Trump's club. Nunes unleashes a dizzying array of conservative conspiracy theories all to distract from Trump's theft of national secrets.

Too, Also: while the President "can declassify anything" .. remember, I Am Not A Lawyer .. but improper declassification could be treasonous or something amirite?
Probably not. Yes, he can declassify anything. But he has to follow the process, and it doesn’t appear that he did. His failure to do so probably doesn’t amount to “treason,” but is likely unlawful (hence the three crimes alleged in the warrant).

I am increasingly uneasy that a mix of, the idea of prosecuting an ex-POTUS, a desire to mitigate the inevitable reaction from tfg’s more militant supporters, and the possibility of the notion of “doing a deal” whereby tfg in some way drops his political pretensions, will result in no (public?) action being taken against him.

Conversely I believe the of rule of law, and democracy (something that is debatable at the best of times) is hanging by a thread. Any route that does not, for better or worse, involve the indictment of tfg simply sets the stage for a future of worse transgressions, no matter the actual perpetrator.

Too, also the idea of tfg, or any of his adherents, keeping to any deal is ridiculous.

"by the copy of this TRUTH..."
Is that the new EO replacement for destitute former WH residents? :cantlook: :brickwallsmall:

PS.dear Donald, your team of lawyers will get notified in due time where they can pick up the empty boxes and the family photos. The National Archive will notify you where the approved storage location will be for material you can use to build the presidential library upon. All other sensitive material will be used as e vidence in your indictment and will be correctly safeguarded as per classification.

ETA "executive privileged material" :cantlook: :lol:

ETA the 2nd. "privileged client-attorney papers" --- Dear Donald you are a really messed up individual, keeping private papers mixed with government documents. Your crack team of attorneys surely know they can ask that the stash gets sealed, then sifted as per court order to separate client-attorney material from the other damning stuff. Also too attorney advice on government work is not the same as advice given to you as private citizen.

Question: Is there anyone here who hasn't spent considerable time since, say, Impeachment v1, imagining what the MAGA reaction to an actual arrest of TFG would be like? Pictured the rage, threats, lies, violence, rationalization, accusations from MAGA on the street, Bannon types, to the fascist pols?

Anyone surprised by the reaction to (what I think is a pretty modest showing, comparatively) this arrest-adjacent event?

Q: Are you concerned at all about national security breaches with those classified documents being at the Mar-a-Lago estate?

Russia Ron: I think Mar-a-Lago is a pretty safe place .. So, no, I’m not overly concerned about some Top Secret information being leaked out.

Let’s stop falling for Trump’s diversionary tactic of focusing on his latest absurd “defense” du jour —and instead keep asking why he still has not said why he took the documents, why he did not return them, and what he did with them and/or or was planning to do with them?

Why is John Solomon named as Trump's Presidential Records representative? As far as I know he hadn't served in any government position at the time and is nothing more than a right wing propagandist.

Seb Gorka tells Steve Bannon that he has an anonymous source inside the FBI who supposedly told him he believes they planted listening devices at Mar-a-Lago.

Gorka and Bannon? Now there’s a brain trust.

I don't believe it really matters. This is about the public stuff. And it's millions of pages. An outsider will be looking for the needle in the haystack. The handyman to get boxes out of storage to the reading area and clean up after. You don't want high payed historians doing the grunt work :twisted:
