Trump Asks Supreme Court To Intervene In Mar A Lago Documents Scandal

Nope. He was quoted. Your disbelief doesn’t control. Sorry Stain.
CNN - Breaking News, Latest News and Videos>politics>Trump plans he declassified Mar-A-Lago documents< but his lawyers refuse to make that assertion. September 18th 2022. His own lawyers don't even believe him. They're protecting their asses. I remember trump saying could declassify documents using his mind. If that isn't crazy, nothing is. The man is Looney tunes.
 
Most of them were classified.

The majority ruling in the 1988 Supreme Court case Department of Navy vs. Egan
"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 USSC’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." 1988 USSC Ruling.

Baseless ^ opinion.
That's correct Trump's opinion is baseless. The decision to de-classify documents early ( before 10 years ) is made by consultation with the agencies that have an interest in the information, there are no exceptions to this regulation.

Wrong. Your opinion is the baseless one. As usual, Stain.

And you are also factually wrong. The President has unilateral authority to declassify a classified document. Period.

You can whine as you are prone to do. But that doesn’t alter one single fact. It is what it is.

I think you better look at the regulations. Yes, the president can declassify something but there's a process and if he didn't go through the process it wasn't done, it's as simple as that. Otherwise the government would be in chaos. Nobody would know what's classified and what isn't. Please use some common sense.

I know you’re wrong and ignorant.

And you might want to edit your posts a bit for coherence before submitting them.

The ”process” you’re worrying about is for the people under the President. If he delegates to any subordinate the responsibility for declassification, then damn straight there is a process. But the President IS the Executive Branch. If and when he says that some previously classified document is now declassified, it is. That’s that.

Go commit the holding in Navy v. Egan to memory:

Department of the Navy v. Egan, 484 U.S. 518 (1988).​

It said, in relevant part,

the grant of security clearance to a particular employee, a sensitive and inherently discretionary judgment call, is committed by law to the appropriate agency of the Executive Branch.

The President, after all, is the "Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States." U.S.Const., Art. II, § 2. His authority to classify and control access to information bearing on national security and to determine whether an individual is sufficiently trustworthy to occupy a position in the Executive Branch that will give that person access to such information flows primarily from this constitutional investment of power in the President, and exists quite apart from any explicit congressional grant. See Cafeteria Workers v. McElroy, 367 U. S. 886, 367 U. S. 890 (1961). This Court has recognized the Government's "compelling interest" in withholding national security information from unauthorized persons in the course of executive business. Snepp v. United States, 444 U. S. 507, 444 U. S. 509, n. 3 (1980). See also United States v. Robel, 389 U. S. 258, 389 U. S. 267 (1967); United States v. Reynolds,345 U. S. 1, 345 U. S. 10 (1953); Totten v. United States, 92 U. S. 105, 92 U. S. 106 (1876). The authority to protect such information falls on the President as head of the Executive Branch and as Commander in Chief.

No. In reality. They had been declassified. End of story.
Nope. Trump has NEVER made the claim he declassified them in court, with his favorite shopped judge, handling the search warrant suit, or to any of the courts and judges that have touched the search warrant case?

This whole thing would have been over before it started if he had made this claim that everything was declassified by him and supported it, in a court of law.I

The only conclusion that anyone with an ounce of brain matter can come to, is Trump will not make that claim ,n court because he is LYING about it, and lying in a court of law, means jail time! :eek:

There are no exceptions to that regulation are you some kind of idiot or what.
The Brennan Center’s opinions don’t trump SCOTUS decisions.
The Brennan document was just reiterating the regulations on declassification. National Archives |>appendix basic laws and authorities. Also , another valid source:
www.verifythis.com how US presidents declassified documents. Aug 18th.,2022. Your argument isn't with me it's with the government and their regulations good luck with that.
