[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trump also kept gifts without reporting them and having their value assessed.

[i]The gifts found in the FBI search raise a separate set of issues than the classified documents, which contain information that could compromise national security or sensitive intelligence-gathering methods and sources. Under federal law, presidents and other government officials are prohibited from keeping gifts from a foreign government that are worth more than $415. Typically, a president or a government official would submit any gift to the Office of the Chief of Protocol for a valuation and assessment. Gifts under $415 are traditionally transferred to the National Archives or a Presidential Library when the president leaves office.

The House Oversight Committee launched an investigation earlier this summer into unreported gifts Trump received while he was in office, after the State Department indicated to lawmakers that Trump “failed to comply with the law governing foreign gift reporting” during his final year as president.

The inventory list does not contain information about who gave Trump the gifts seized from Mar-a-Lago and whether the items went through the proper assessment protocols.[/i][/quote]

Pompeo walked off with a $8500 bottle of Japanese booze. [/quote]

Taking expensive booze seems like such astonishingly normal theft, not this stuff with the documents at Mar-A-Lago.[/quote]

Stealing something gifted to the United States by a foreign government isn’t “astonishingly normal” unless you routinrly fraternize with felons who don’t think laws and ethics apply to them. [/quote]
