Unsealed Trump Search Warrant - Trump had classified Documents

[Lesh]

3 X zero is still zero

Republicans in general are looking really bad of late.

Roe?

The Vet Burn Bill?

This mess?

Not to mention the fact that Biden could just as easily claim he RECLASSIFIED those docs the day after he was inaugurated

This didn't even have to be done by the president. The vice president could re-classify those documents also.
Plus the agency heads could re-classify those documents they had originally classified.

And if Trump could do it by a standing verbal order, so could they.

This would be an interesting battle of the classification/declassification.

If Biden had even referred to those docs as classified...boom...they are classified.

Trump’s ‘Planted Evidence’ Claim Unlikely to Stand Up In Court

“Planting information anyone?” Trump said Friday in a social-media post criticizing the FBI for not allowing his lawyers to witness the search.

Sorry, TDS folks!

Anything Trump took out of the Oval Office was de-classified automatically, by standing order:

"As we can all relate to, everyone ends up having to bring home their work from time to time. American presidents are no different," said the statement from Trump's office on Friday night read out on Fox News.

Trump further claimed that he had a "standing order" to declassify documents "the moment" they left the Oval Office.

"President Trump, in order to prepare for work the next day, often took documents, including classified documents, from the Oval Office to the residence. He had a standing order that documents removed from the Oval Office and taken into the residence were deemed to be declassified the moment he removed them," the statement said.

Trump's latest defense for Mar-a-Lago documents is everyone 'brings home their work from time to time' and the files were automatically declassified

Trump's statement on the Mar-a-Lago documents was featured on Fox News. He claimed a "standing order" declassified files "the moment" they left the Oval Office.

Can he do that? Yes, he can:

One of the members of Congress who commented after the newspaper’s revelations was Sen. James Risch, R-Idaho. According to CNN, he told reporters, "The minute the president speaks about it to someone, he has the ability to declassify anything at any time without any process."

Is that accurate? Independent experts said Risch is on target concerning the legal powers of the president. Some experts added, however, that the senator’s formulation left out some context that is relevant for assessing Trump’s alleged actions.

The majority ruling in the 1988 Supreme Court case Department of Navy vs. Egan -- which addressed the legal recourse of a Navy employee who had been denied a security clearance -- addresses this line of authority.

"The President, after all, is the ‘Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States’" according to Article II of the Constitution, the court’s majority wrote. "His authority to classify and control access to information bearing on national security ... flows primarily from this constitutional investment of power in the President, and exists quite apart from any explicit congressional grant."

Steven Aftergood, director of the Federation of American Scientists Project on Government Secrecy, said that such authority gives the president the authority to "classify and declassify at will."

In fact, Robert F. Turner, associate director of the University of Virginia's Center for National Security Law, said that "if Congress were to enact a statute seeking to limit the president’s authority to classify or declassify national security information, or to prohibit him from sharing certain kinds of information with Russia, it would raise serious separation of powers constitutional issues."

Do presidents have 'the ability to declassify anything'?

Dang!

Ok, what's next?

What if the CIA gives a president some Top Secret document involving other countries, and in order to prevent a war, the president decides to share that Top Secret document with Putin?
Perfectly legal.
The president has full authority to conduct all government actions and diplomacy as he sees fit.

Or Trump could claim to prevent a war, he was giving Alaska back to Russia, for the original purchase price.

Legal?

Thanks. The FBI sure looks suspicious by not allowing Trump's lawyers to monitor.

Oh sure, we all can relate about bringing work home.
Hell, yes!!

But........

..... but two years after you've been fired those sensitive and 'company's secrets' work documents need be returned back to work...without resorting to subpoenas to get 'em.

Or as last resort, a federal search warrant.

Yup. His odds of winning the presidency just tripled. He’ll get all of Trump voters, plus the independents disgusted with what the Demoncrats have become.

What DeSantis won’t get is a Trump endorsement
Trump will turn MAGA a against him

No he won’t. Patriots aren’t going to vote for the anti-American Party, otherwise known as Democrats.

TRUMP was guarded by the SS. The docs were not

Hilary’s unlocked closet wasnt guarded by anyone or anyth8ng. Also how many foreign governments do you imagine accessed Trumps locked safe at Mara Lago?

Taking that statement as true. The two questions are, where is the list of items removed from the oval office, needed to control the declassification of those items.

And more importantly, one must presume that those items were returned to the oval office the next day, so Trump could use them the next day.

DeSantis will court the MAGA vote but Trump will throw him under the bus

MAGA won’t vote Democratic….but they will just stay home

Found a new topic to rub yourself over?

 

[Lisa558]

No they won’t. They understand that doing so means higher inflation, gas prices intentionally being driven up for the “transition,” more illegals swamping the country, IRS agents being sicced on the middle class, more attempts at silencing political dissenters, and watching the country continue its descent into a 3rd-world, corrupt hellhole.

Plus, Independents will be so fed up with the hoaxes and the witch-hunts the Democrats waged on Trump that they will turn out in droves to kick them out of office.
