If the government does nothing wrong it has nothing to hide.

What was remarkable about the secret document dump was how unremarkable it was. With exception of some of the spying stuff (the US spies on everyone, especially allies), everything else we knew from open source. Yes, we know Ukraine is short of manpower, artillery ammo, and air defense missiles. Documents used to be classified to keep important information from adversaries, now they're classified to shield normal activities of the government and military from the American public.

“Documents used to be classified to keep important information from adversaries, now they’re classified to shield normal activities of the government and military from the American public.”

Worth saying again. It is analogous to the ubiquitous FBI and DA investigations used to lock down information about a person/event with a statement like “That information cannot be released as it is part of an active law enforcement investigation.” And then the whole thing disappears, along with a lot of info that should have been public.
