Once Upon a Time, the DOJ Argued the Presidential Records Act Gave a President Massive Authority Over His Records

[Leo123]

The grand jury, NARA and the law disagreed.

All presidential records belong to the United States.

A corrupt DOJ 'disagreed.'

 

[Superbadbrutha]

Yeah, that's EXACTLY what the Constitution says.

You should read it sometime.

Your argument is that unelected government bureaucrats get to DICTATE what the laws of this land are. Not the PEOPLE who ELECT people to REPRESENT them.

So, are you in favor of a dictatorship, or are you for a republican style of government?

What Article of the Constitution says that?

Once Upon a Time, the DOJ Argued the Presidential Records Act Gave a President Massive Authority Over His Records​

FACT. Like everything else, Biden and the government argued for many years FOR a president having the power to do just what Trump did---- until Trump came along and like everything else, that became inconvenient and got in the way so they 180° reversed their opinions.

BUT DON'T WORRY---- when Biden is indicted for doing FAR FAR worse, they will again argue that president's rights are absolute.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

Those documents belonged to him.

Obviously they didn't, if he was ordered to return them.

 

[Marener]

Jack Smith has abused his power more than any other prosecutor in history. His "legal theories" have been laughed out of Court more than any other. If the legal system were truly a justice system this fucker would be under the prison, where his unethical ass belongs.

Yes. Imagine thinking it’s illegal to lie about complying with a grand jury subpoena and illegally retaining highly classified documents in your bathroom.

So crazy.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

Jack Smith LIED to the Grand Jury, and didn't present a single bit of evidence that exonerates Trump.


DURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

What did Jack Smith lie about? He isn't Trump's defense attorney, why would he exonerate Trump?

 

[excalibur]

Obviously they didn't, if he was ordered to return them.

By Biden's corrupt DOJ.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

They didn't need to issue a subpoena. Trump was cooperating.

If he was cooperating the FBI would not have raided Mar A Lago.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

By Biden's corrupt DOJ.

Why are they corrupt? Oh that's right Trump is above the Law, King Trump should be able to do whatever he wants.

 

[excalibur]

Yes. Imagine thinking it’s illegal to lie about complying with a grand jury subpoena and illegally retaining highly classified documents in your bathroom.

So crazy.

How do you know any classified documents were in a bathroom? You fell for that photo in the indictment, didn't you. You are the type of gullible person that was aimed at.

Trump's MAL residence has 24/7 Secret Service protection, no one was getting in who shouldn't.

 

[Marener]

They didn't need to issue a subpoena. Trump was cooperating.

It took him nearly a year to cough up the first set of boxes and that was only after NARA threatened to involve the DoJ.

Who the hell told you he was cooperating?

Corrupt because Biden sicced them on his chief political rival, just like any other republic.

 

[Leo123]

Yes. Imagine thinking it’s illegal to lie about complying with a grand jury subpoena and illegally retaining highly classified documents in your bathroom.

So crazy.

Just imagine Biden using U.S. policy to get a prosecutor fired who was investigating his son. Imagine Biden having boxes of documents in his garage when he had no business possessing them. Why no raid? Why no Suboena?

 

[georgephillip]

Trump had every right to those documents.

Not under the Presidential Records Act:

"The 1978 law, not mentioned in the indictment, states just the opposite, as it requires records created by presidents and vice presidents be turned over to the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) at the end of their administrations."

Trump makes legal claims about classified documents, experts push back: Fact check

 

[Leo123]

It took him nearly a year to cough up the first set of boxes and that was only after NARA threatened to involve the DoJ.

Who the hell told you he was cooperating?

We still do not have all of Obama's docs, we don't know where Hillary's emails went and Joe still has boxes of documents in his garage. At least Trump was cooperating.

Those were Trump’s boxes of papers where he kept everything from pictures of himself to classified documents.

Mar a Lago hosts thousands of people and employs hundreds of employees. Secret Service protects Trump, not his junk. They had no idea the documents were there.

Eighteen months after Øbama left office, his Foundation agreed to pay the Archive to retrieve classified documents from unsecure storage in a warehouse in Chicago.

The warehouse in Chicago was a secure NARA facility.

You don’t know what you’re talking about.

Prove any of that.

How did Biden sic them on Trump? How long did the NARA request those records? Do you think Trump is above the Law?
