And for other information, the president cannot just declassify documents telepathically - the declassification must be communicated effectively, whether formally or informally.

I’m so confused why everyone is fixiared on these boxes when we all know that it’s digital files that really matter.




They obviously didn’t know about them until now. They were kept back, intentionally. That’s my explanation, and obviously that would be a serious crime.


So your theory is they aren't on the search warrant but *surprise* there they were in Melania's underwear drawer?


No.y theory is they got intelligence proving that he had documents he never disclosed. And they happened to be very very sensitive ones. And as soon as they got the intelligence they got the warrant.


And after the FISA lies, you honestly trust them all now? After the Steele Dossier, which Steele himself said was just speculation on his part? After the pee tapes that never materialized? After the laptop that wasn't, then suddenly was? NOW they are telling the truth?

Just a simpleton who enjoys the casual racism of Daily Caller and owning the libs.


What amuses the heck out of me is the DOJ happened to find the ONE thing that a president can't declassify. How totally convenient is that?

I honestly think that some DCUM posters watch too many political movies.

There have been several different theories presented on this thread, explicitly and implicitly. None of them are legal but some of them are (slightly, possibly) less damaging to the country and national security than others.

It’s fairly safe to say Trump is experiencing the unpleasantries of going through some things right now. Anyone heard from Ivanka or the Failsons?

That's an excellent write-up, 22:22. Did you write it or did you get it from somewhere?

Step 1: Unlawfully remove classified documents.

Step 2: ignore request from NARA to return documents

Step 3: Return some materials in response to grand jury subpoena. Keep others.

Step 4: Attempt to schmooze DOJ counterintelligence head who traveled to Florida in an effort to find out what the f is going on

Step 5: Ignore advice of counsel to return materials

Step 6: FAFO

So what's going on here? Was he taking stuff to try to turn over to Middle Eastern countries like KSA, UAE, and Israel, where he might have financial gain?


It was just revealed the Iran was plotting to assassinate Bolton.


It was also revealed that the plotting has been known about for awhile, that Trump removed Bolton's security detail despite knowing of the plot, and that Biden restored the security detail and busted up the plot.


There was a thread a while ago about the large security presence in bethesda and someone pointed out it was at bolton’s house and there was some questions about why a former official needed that…..

Yes it’s in the local Metropolitan DC politics forum with an update after the indictment was released.

Dumb take. Nobody knew what Trump was taking because there were no institutional controls. He would tell aides to bring documents directly to his private residence. He would put materials in a box and direct someone to bring it to his private office. He then repacked documents for shipment to a Florida without telling anyone what he was doing. Someone has to figure out what was missing and then attempt to ascertain whether it was destroyed, flushed, eaten or just lost. Archivists were busy taping documents back together for chrissakes. And nitwits like this expect some orderly process to put Humpty Dumpty together again?


Was he wearing his secret decoder ring too?

That’s an interesting point that might explain how and why DOJ acted now.
