Unsealed Trump Search Warrant - Trump had classified Documents

[Batcat]

This is where Trumps lack of government knowledge comes in.
Whether running his company, or on "the apprentice", all Trump had to do was utter the words "You're fired".

In government there's paperwork involved in order to actually fire someone.

Same with declassifying information. Or pardoning people. Or making a presidential proclamation (EO).

What you are talking about is commonly known as chickenshit. The government loves chickenshit.

Doubling down on stupid?

Lesh was right. You will play the dumb-ass an infinite number of times.

So you think a document can be sent around the world, to Russia, China, Iran............anywhere...................and THEN be classified?

A comment by Sarah Huckabee Sanders?

Were you always this stupid?

Did I bring a comment by any of those folks? Nope.

That makes you a dumbass, Dumbass.

Nope? That makes you both a dumbass and a liar.

Did you bring a comment from Sarah Sanders? YES.

"Regarding a Putin meeting, there was never a meeting confirmed, and there will not be one that takes place due to scheduling conflicts on both sides," White House press secretary Sarah Sanders told reporters on Nov. 10, according to CNN. "There is no formal meeting or anything scheduled for them."

She went on to add that because they are "going to be in the same place," they will likely "bump into each other and say hello," but nothing more.

Lying dumbass !!!!

Heard Kayleigh Mcenany comment on it, and she nailed the idiot Cuomo Bigly.

Said something along the lines of "It isn't often a governor announces to the world what an abject failure he is"

Kayleigh Mcenany?

Lol hey moron, there is zero reason to believe he declassified them. You’re just pretending to know he did. I am the one suggesting it’s up in the air. I’m objective and you’re a child.

I personally think he did not because he’s a goddamn moron and believed he didn’t need to. The FBI is alleging those docs were still classified. Because of that, it is reasonable to assume that is the case.

You bought it over the FISA warrant the FBI fudged then too?

 

[Delldude]

Then post to "me" the relevant parts of those articles that answered the question of why they didn't release the information.

What was stopping them, since Trump told them he was declassifying all of "crossfire hurricane"

He did. It's in the articles. Kash Patel and John Solomon are going to get them from the archives.

Sorry Gene, you're a big boy.....I don't do spoon feeding.

If they're declassified, they can get them just by requesting them. And by law, that doesn't take very long.

within twenty working days
Under the statute, federal agencies are required to respond to a FOIA request within twenty working days, excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays.

Remind me, how long has it been?

Who says there has to be a time frame? You afraid to read the articles?

He didn't have his people either memorialize that determination or to stamp the documents as "unclassified" as required.

As I said, there is a process that has to be followed, and Trump didn't follow it.

Had he done so, his staff around him would have been aware of it. It would have been put into the presidential records, and the documents would have been marked.

In addition the agency that classified the documents would have been notified of the new classification status of the documents.

You don’t declassify Top Secret documents with a waive of the hand.

It is a detailed process with nationwide repercussions

Weeks before Mar-a-Lago search, ex-Trump DOD official vowed to publish classified documents from National Archives

Seven weeks before the FBI raided Mar-a-Lago, a former Trump DOD appointee vowed to retrieve classified documents from the National Archives and publish them online.

abcnews.go.com

In June of this year, seven weeks before the FBI raided former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate in search of classified materials, former Defense Department appointee and outspoken Trump loyalist Kash Patel vowed to retrieve classified documents from the National Archives and publish them on his website.

Patel, who under Trump had been the chief of staff for the acting defense secretary, claimed in a string of interviews that Trump had declassified a trove of "Russiagate documents" in the final days of his administration. But Patel claimed Trump's White House counsel had blocked the release of those documents, and instead had them delivered to the National Archives.

"I've never told anyone this because it just happened," Patel said in an interview on a pro-Trump podcast on June 22. "I'm going to identify every single document that they blocked from being declassified at the National Archives, and we're going to start putting that information out next week."

Patel did not provide a clear explanation of how he would legally or practically obtain the documents.

AH...so you do know how to read.
Now, look up in EO 13256 and see the process for getting declassified doc's from the National Archives.

Who says there has to be a time frame? You afraid to read the articles?

When somebody says they're going to release the information (two months ago), when the government has to release unclassified information within a month.

What's taking so long? Unless of course, the information was never declassified.

Yet we know absolutely nothing about what has transpired.

 

[MagicMike]

Yes he was able to bullshit his investors. Before 6 of his companies went bankrupt. Including a casino during the casino boom in New Jersey.

He was able to bullshit banks and the IRS as well.
This is what he is under 8mvestigation for now and what he pleaded the fifth to repeatedly recently when questioned in a deposition about this.

And in his own words "only criminals plead the fifth."
So there ya go.

About the only one he has never been able to bullshit is Vladimir Putin.
Putin knows what a criminal Trump is....because Putin owns him.

We know that he had Top Secret documents that weren’t protected

The president is the source of the whole classification system. He has the authority to classify or declassify any information. That power is HUGE, and the law never imagined a president who would abuse the power. It was left to following proper protocol, which the president is free to ignore.
The president is supposed to go to the original classifier, and "ask" them to declassify what they can of his request without harming national security.

But the president has the power to "order" they declassify the information.

So even to the detriment of our nations security the president can indeed declassify anything (except for nuclear, and certain CIA personnel).

It's what the presidents EO says of how classified documents are classified, handled and declassified.
