Hear exclusive audio of Trump discussing classified documents in 2021

Trump has said that former presidents can take classified documents home. Lie

Wrong.
Read the laws on classified docs.
They are all presidential executive orders, 13526.
They all say presidents are the arbitrary source of all classified doc authority, and they can do what ever they want with classified docs.
Traditionally the goal of classified docs is so presidents can give permanent copies to whomever they want, like allies, labs, ambassadors, generals, etc.
But clearly it is legal for presidents to give themselves permanent copies as well.
 
Joe Biden - approximately 25 to 30 classified government documents were discovered and yes some stories are saying while he was Senator.

Trump had 184 classified documents that he took home and NARA retrieved in Jan 18 2022

Aug - approximately 103 more documents found in his home during the raid.

Some records were torn up. NARA had to piece them back together

Senators have no security clearance to look at classified docs at all, much less have possession of them.
Presidents can do whatever they want with their copies, including shred them.
NARA is lying if they claim they had to "piece them back together", because Trump's copies were irrelevant, and NARA could get additional new copies whenever they wanted.
 
Yet u fail to post anything as to why you believe that the classified documents came from when he was a senator.

As VP, Pence and Biden lived in different houses than when in congress.
The classified docs were in the homes from congress, not just the ones from VP.
 
Trump is a treasonous criminal who committed historic crimes, attempting to overturn a presidential election, disenfranchise millions of Americans, and disrupt the peaceful transfer of power.

And yet the equally treasonous right continues to support and defend the likes of Trump.

Wrong.
Trump is obnoxious, but did nothing remotely illegal.
What is criminal is conducting bogus impeachments and indictments, based on lies.

What Biden did with illegally bribing and arming the Maidan coup in the Ukraine, was not only the murder of tens of thousands, but the risk of eventual nuclear annihilation of the entire US.
Not to mention the illegal economic sanctions on Russia caused prices to double.
 
He was the VP and they have clearance.

Small point, but VPs do not "have clearance".
Almost no politician ever does or could get a security clearance.
What VPs rely on instead, is executive privilege.
Like presidents, they are specifically exempt from any and all classified doc laws.
 
CNN has exclusively obtained the audio recording of the 2021 meeting in Bedminster, New Jersey. This is where former President Donald Trump discusses holding secret documents he did not declassify. Listen to the tape.
Edited in a period and two words for thread start rule conformity. White 6.


The audio recording comes from a July 2021 interview Trump gave at his Bedminster resort for people working on the memoir of Mark Meadows, Trump’s former chief of staff. The special counsel’s indictment alleges that those in attendance – a writer, publisher and two of Trump’s staff members – were shown classified information about the plan of attack on Iran.

The episode is one of two referenced in the indictment where prosecutors allege that Trump showed classified information to others who did not have security clearances.

Trump’s statements on the audio recording, saying “these are the papers” and referring to something he calls “highly confidential” and seems to be showing others in the room, could undercut the former president’s claims in an interview last week with Fox News’ Bret Baier that he did not have any documents with him.

That Trump was really a huge bag O' shit, ain't he? I hope he goes to prison.

Executive Order 13526- Classified National Security Information​

is probably the current defining authorization for anything classified.

Sec. 1.3. Classification Authority. (a) The authority to classify information originally may be exercised only by:

(1) the President and the Vice President;

it can be presumed that they inherently can see any type of classified documents which makes sense and both can really do anything with classified documents.



Yes once Biden becomes a citizen then he should no longer have the ability to see classified documents unless the current president gives him the right.

Executive Order 13526- Classified National Security Information

The classified docs were in the homes from congress, not just the ones from VP.
I found the news reports that verify that some documents were found when he was a senator.
 

The problem of maintaining classified documents extends beyond just presidents and vice presidents, the National Archives officials said. Mark Bradley, who directs the agency's Information Security Oversight Office, said that since 2010, his office has gotten more than 80 calls from libraries that have found classified information in papers belonging to members of Congress.

In may this year in a hearing before Congress, NARA officials plainly stated the above as fact.

80 call calls from libraries that have found classified papers belonging to members of Congress.
