That doesn’t answer the question “why did you take them?”
And but also doesn’t answer the question is that in the three legal charges likely pending against former President Trump he’s not absolved of that at all with what you state.
Further they were apparently not properly reclassified , you don’t wave a magic wand, there was nothing done as far as the report so far in terms of proper reporting to other agencies, storage, retagging, control logs, etc.… That’s bullshit they’re just saying after the fact … And on top of that 18 former national security personnel at the senior level (all Republicans appointed) and most of them Trump White House emeriti, have stated as of just week they have never heard of such a “magic wand”
procedure being done, repeat NEVER. Furthermore although the Presidential Records Act states that an incumbent President may “dispose of records that no longer have administrative, historical, informational, or evidentiary value,” the disposal is only permitted after “views of the Archivist of the United States on the proposed disposal have been obtained in writing.”
Again. I challenge you:
As a private citizen, are those documents his personal property or the property of The Archivist and in turn the property of the People of the United States?
It can’t be both.
I don’t really care what the affidavit reveals or does not reveal.
Only a fool would believe that this raid, the Jan 6th show trials, the stolen 2020 election and subsequent political persecution and fake news gaslighting - were not all parts of a treasonous plot to overthrow a duly elected President.
The burden of proof rests entirely on this corrupt and illegitimate administration to prove otherwise - and they can’t. Any further discussion is mental masturbation.
After the midterms, if people in high places are not strung up for this - we don’t have a country.
No I’m just observing basic facts the fact is he’s now left by most accounts with very very poor representation and you can either bury your head in the sand or you can face the fact that he’s in deep shit… That’s the two options in front of us. I mean their screw ups in the most recent hearings and document filings is reprehensible as an attorney, I’d fire them right away, and the fact they couldn’t even sit in the barrrd attorney area, but in general public seating, and were silent during his hearing and didn’t oppose the DOJ motions just shows complete amateur level lawyering.
I am aware of that perspective
I know if it were me and I were entrusted with the country’s top national security secrets I would never EVER do what former President Trump did and taking those down to MAL outside of the SCIF and having them laying all over the place or susceptible to be accessed by uncleared people (including Trump who is no longer cleared as a private citizen) . So I guess the answer is yes if I did such a national security violation of NDI handling I would want the government to come after me or any other person as well. Just think they could go after any of us
It was all about recovering docs Trump had with the FBI fraudulent FISA info on them, as per today’s report by Paul Sperry.
They weren’t looking for evidence to convict, but evidence to keep Trump from CONVICTING THEM.
National Archives and the FBI to join forces to break all precedent to target a former president.
OH SHIT he does have information on the guilty.
All D.C. law firms are now on active duty.
As usual, you’re an idiot who has nothing but offbase pejoratives to sling at the wall shotgun style.
Your TDS is off the charts too, ExAmerican.
You have no counterarguments, if you’ve followed the points I’ve made and will continue to make . Me, I’m not angry at anyone, don’t need to name call, least of all towards you. If anything, I’m governed by pity to watch this nonsense all start to come undone.
Again, as President, Trump has plenary power to take them and do whatever he wants with them. His simply wanting them is sufficient. His coming to you and getting your approval is not required.
And but also doesn’t answer the question is that in the three legal charges likely pending against former President Trump he’s not absolved of that at all with what you state.
What the hell do fishing expedition by soros DAs in blue states have to do with the gestapo raid on Mar a Lago? You're all over the place. Focus.
Further they were apparently not properly reclassified , you don’t wave a magic wand, there was nothing done as far as the report so far in terms of proper reporting to other agencies, storage, retagging, control logs, etc.… That’s bullshit they’re just saying after the fact …
Yes, as a matter of fact, they, meaning the POTUS, do have the plenary power to declassify them. They don't need to be "reclassified" as anything. That's what "declassify" means.
And on top of that 18 former national security personnel at the senior level (all Republicans appointed) and most of them Trump White House emeriti, have stated as of just week they have never heard of such a “magic wand” procedure being done, repeat NEVER. Furthermore although the Presidential Records Act states that an incumbent President may “dispose of records that no longer have administrative, historical, informational, or evidentiary value,” the disposal is only permitted after “views of the Archivist of the United States on the proposed disposal have been obtained in writing.”
The Presidential Records Act has already been rendered moot by the Court ruling against Judicial Watch when they tried to get Obama's records which he hauled off and stuck in a sock drawers. The POTUS has plenary powers. All the words your spouting now are irrelevant. "But, but but....."
Again. I challenge you:
As a private citizen, are those documents his personal property or the property of The Archivist and in turn the property of the People of the United States?
They are his personal property. He can provide copies to the archivist (still didn't get those Obama sock drawer tapes tho') and there is no time constraint as to when such transfer takes place. The originals may go into whatever Presidential Library the ex-POTUS decides to build. Or just sit in a sock drawer for that matter. Being declassified and all.
It can’t be both.
Sure it can. That's what copies are for.
Yeah he’s the victim all right… Everyone knows this man can do absolutely no wrong, that he has a sinless birth, and that he is the second coming of Christ I. Our political times. /sarc
Right, no anger, no insults. Technically I guess that's true. Just utterly baseless blather.
