Legal experts say presidents have absolute authority to declassify documents, but it's not clear whether Trump ever took action to do soFormer President Donald Trump and his allies say that any sensitive White House documents he brought with him to his Mar-a-Lago estate had been declassified, but some legal and presidential record experts are skeptical of that claim — and say that Trump could be in criminal jeopardy regardless.
"As the facts stand now, his defense would be, ‘I declassified those documents. I am not therefore in possession of classified documents now,'” said Charles Stimson, a senior fellow with the conservative Heritage Foundation and a former federal prosecutor.
And sept under the rug like Hilary LR hunter/Joe money laundering through Ukraine
Sure he did. With his crystal ball and sharpie. Silly news station. He even declassified classified thoughts.
Of course he says that on Monday morning. If any Trump made that excuse to me I would heartily laugh in their face.
They should take care to make sure it's no more different than absolutely necessary.
It’s TheDemocrats BananaRepublic
No former President has ever taken classified Top Secret documents “home.” What a stupid headline. Get you stuff together or stop attempting “journalism”
Or a former Secretary of State.
Clinton was found guilty for mishandling documents as Sec of State. Politics
Trump is under federal investigation for possible violations of the Espionage Act, which makes it unlawful to spy for another country or mishandle U.S. defense information, including sharing it with people not authorized to receive it, a search warrant shows. read more
It's becoming increasingly clear that the left is completely evil.
He did declass those docs.
Irrelevant.
Is there evidence that he did
Do you think he was planning on selling that classified material to the Chinese/Russians?
Wait, were they planted by the FBI or were they declassified? Or is he just grasping at straws, throwing crap out there to see if any of it will help him?
How about hunter biden computer
Has Biden even signed anything? I have yet to see any pictures. :)
Meaning- experts are scrambling cause they forgot Trump had that power 😂👍 Considering that Dems & FBI we’re OK with Hillary having classified docs at home & on her mobile phone, is this just about the trees? Would ya’ll be OK if he went paperless? Is that it? 🤔😂
Don’t be FoxNews. Trump is a criminal and while I have your attention get your boss to release the apprentice tapes. Before it eventually gets leaked that you’re giving a criminal a pass.
He wouldn't lie, hahahahaha.
It's not unclear. Seriously?
