So secret that it cannot be stated why its so secret, that's how secret it is Is it strange that people cannot put information about top secret files in the media. I think not if it was that easy then the documents were not important and Trump could have kept the files. Just wait and see and hope this sticks and he will be disqualified to be president. Then the US might finally move forward instead of backwards. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Walker88 Posted September 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted September 4, 2022 (edited) There is no excuse other than 45 broke a host of laws and should be indicted, tried, and if found guilty given the maximum possible penalty, even if that is execution. 43 empty folders with TS/SCI and HCS markings. The guy goes to all the trouble to pack empty classified folders? No way. HCS refers to human clandestine sources, which is to say agency assets. It is probably not coincidental that many agency assets have been rolled up since 45 lost the election, including Chinese, russian and South Asian. Also, the folders were in his office, not even behind a padlock. Of course his garish club isn't a SCIF, so it is against the law to store any classified documents there. It is highly unlikely 45 cleans his own office---he hires undocumented workers for that---and such char force people would be prime targets of foreign intel services. FSB or someone else would pay such a person $millions to rifle his desk, make copies or take images. Also, did 45 make copies? He would be unlikely to do that work himself, too, so perhaps the FBI has an informant who was the one told to make copies. I suspect the MaL raid will not be the last, as the DoJ and FBI---already aware 45 lied---will try to recover other files and search for the missing docs. ANYBODY who held even 1% of the material 45 had would already be cuffed and behind bars. There is zero excuse for what he has done, and he has jeopardized US national security perhaps more than anyone since the Rosenbergs. The Doj has so far handled him with kid gloves, which is infinitely more than he deserves. A former NSA analyst took home a handful of TS docs in order to catch up on his work from home. Since that is illegal, he was tried, convicted and given 9 years in jail. 45 should get at least that, if not also get what the Rosenbergs got.....Sparky at Sing Sing. Yes, 'innocent until proven guilty', but the presence of those materials at MaL equates to guilt, so 45 is guilty. No doubt.

Seeing such terrible false comments made against Melania makes me think this latest witch hunt against President Trump is falling apart at the seems causing such lashing out by the disappointed. The Daily Mail is a RIGHT WING publication in the UK. Seems odd they would smear their kissin cousins in the US. I'm guessing she was on the game, but fortunately for her, before smart phones, so all that's left are rumours, and of course, the rich pricks she was entertaining aren't going to squeal and bring shame or worse on themselves. Thus the Daily Fail only had strong rumours and no concrete proof. Sue me!???? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like pressuring the president of a foreign nation to go after your chief political opponent. Or fomenting an insurrection.

Popular Post LarrySR Posted September 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted September 4, 2022 “On political corruption, we are going to restore honor to our government, '' Trump said in August 2016. "In my administration, I'm going to enforce all laws concerning the protection of classified information. No one will be above the law." "One of the first things we must do is to enforce all classification rules and to enforce all laws relating to the handling of classified information," Speaking in July of that year, Trump said Clinton's mishandling "disqualifies" her from public service. "Any government employee who engaged in this kind of behavior would be barred from handling classified information," Trump said. "Again, that alone disqualifies her." 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pieces of cardboard It seems they got nothing The 43 empty TS/SCI and HCS folders are only part of what they got. The retrieved actual TS/SCI documents, which the bloated one had zero right to have. That in and of itself is a crime, and ANYONE else caught with that stuff would be cuffed, perpwalked and jailed, because the mere presence is proof of guilt. Perhaps you think he is so dumb he packed empty classified doc folders to take back? Never are such folders lying around, neither empty or with docs inside, so packing them is purposeful, not inadvertent. He also lied about returning everything, when in the search the FBI found docs in his office desk. That, too, is proof of guilt. A first year law student working as a prosecutor could get a conviction on that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could the bar be set any lower? Ma Barker had more class. She did softcore porn, some of it lesbian. Classy for a FLOTUS? On the way to ostensibly comfort people who suffered a disaster, she wore a jacket that said "I don't care, do you?" Classy? How about tone deaf.
