Literally does not matter if any of the documents were classified or not, that's besides the point. They were not his to take. He broke several laws by doing so, that is a fact. He is not above the law. If I had taken any classified material home with me during my time in the Navy I would've been arrested, thrown in the brig, and charged accordingly. If we are truly a nation of laws, then he must be held to the same standard.
Powerful people are above the law. George Bush and Obama were war criminals by Illegally torturing and killing people. Obama also lied under oath about surveillance programs. Hillary burnt documents that were intially unclassified according to Comey and then Comey was stood down since the state department said they were classified. My point is is that they're all above the law. People just believe they're not despite history repeating itself over and over
Executive privilege. He took them, and in the end, nothing can or will happen, because of Execuitve Privilege. You hate trump, so you’ll certainly disagree with me, but if this had been Obama, and I was saying he couldn’t take those documents, you would argue executive privilege. Just watch, nothing will come from this. If anything, I think trump took them, because he knew exactly what democrats would do, and trump can play victim on his campaign. Trump is always baiting the democrats, and they fall for it. He always beats them at their own games. Always. Mark my words, this will fizzle out, and democrats will merely accuse trump of some other crimes. This has been going on for 6 years. The way I see it, is the establishment are abusing their powers to attempt to remove political opposition. That’s actually set a horrible prescient for our country, it will create chaos (possible civil war), and inevitably it will lead to overthrowing our government.
What if he didn't know what classified means You know like when you had no problem when Hillary did it Except she destroyed them to avoid prosecution Idiot
Jason you are why America is on fire. Go study and learn. Alll Presidents have the right to take their documents. Let’s look at Obammy and Bull Clinton. Go read you willfully ignorant fool
“In my administration, I’m going to enforce all laws concerning the protection of classified information. No one will be above the law.” - Trump August 18, 2016
The president himself can declassify certain documents. The president has that power and privilege. Funny, the public has no clue what these documents are, but they are claiming they cannot be declassified. How do you folks know it’s not a log of the president moving from one room to another, or a log of phone calls making tee times? People have no clue whatsoever, but they are making stuff up or listening to the media, which has a 100% rate of being incorrect about trump. You going to listen to an entirely that has a major track record of being incorrect? If you’re that gullible, do you want to buy a bridge in NYC I have for sale? Really good deal!
The Chump declassify nonsense is his typical serial lying BS. Chump was long gone from office and had zero authority over anything by the time he lied and made up the declassify nonsense.
For most of what was recovered in the search, Top Secret & TS-SCI documents, the answer is no. For the rest, yes, provided the legal procedures are followed, which don't appear so. He knows he is toast. That is why he is attacking his accusers. That is what he has always done, even before entering politics.
the President is the apex of classification. The entire classification system exists with the president at the very tip of the pyramid. All intelligence agencies exist to provide the President with information in the PDB. The President can snap his fingers and declassify any document he wants for any reason they want and no one has to sign off on it because no one is above the President. If Biden wanted to declassify all Area 51 documents there is no general or no group of people form the FBI, CIA, DNI, NSA or whatever agency that can stop him.

Here’s the evolution of Trumps excuses: 1) I didn’t take the documents. 2) But if I did take the documents, they weren’t classified. 3) And if they were classified, then they were planted. 4) And if they weren’t planted, I declassified them. 5) And if I didn’t declassify them, then it’s a hoax. 6) And if it’s not a hoax, then Obama did it. 7) WHAT ABOUT HER EMAILS?????🤣😂

Was biden potus when he brought hundreds of boxes of docs home? I gu Edit: it's not like they're gonna give us the actual answer on Trump or biden either way, for, reasons
They don't need to file paperwork to declassify documents. It's an informal process that requires zero consultation with any other entity and requires zero paperwork. Did you even watch the video lol?
@@nuts_fatteningTrump said on audio that he didn’t declassify the document and that he could no longer declassify it because he is no longer President.
It doesn’t matter if he can or not. All the statutes listed in the warrant do not require the documents to be classified for a crime to have been committed.
@@ufoinsider6932 Oh, I am paying attention, and it's so gross. Some of you "Americans" approve of unconstitutional search and seizure and the NON STOP DNCFBI investigation of an American citizen...because you don't like him. In the USA, we don't investigate PEOPLE looking for a crime. We investigate CRIMES looking for the perpetrator. But you people....wow, I only hope you receive the same "justice" And none of you can name a crime, you only HOPE there is a crime. Once you realize the DNCFBI has led you on a hoax AGAIN, will you cry? will you riot? or will you finally, finally, finally figure out what is happening. Pay attention. Just like the 302's read just before they launched Crossfire Hurricane, "there is no 'there' there".
I'm pretty sure it's just a ploy by obiden to keep President Trump from running again so they can continue to steal our money with all of the scams they put in bills.
There's a human or a group of humans connected to the other end of these documents. For one person to unilaterally deem these documents as "unclassified" is dangerous and shows disregard for what it truly may be at stake.
Ok smarty, what are the contents of the documents specifically? How does classification of documents work? What is protocol? Are all documents considered classified until the president declassified them? Some of these documents could be very meaningless stuff that are automatically classified as secret. I believe the content is going to eventually come out, and it’s going to be nothing really important. Will people that jumped up and down pointing finger at trump apologize for jumping the gun, or will they be good little minions and focus on the next shiny object the media dangles in front of them. The media and democrats have been 100% wrong about trump, as every allegation has fallen flat, yet the minions that support the establishment keep believing the media. That is basically just how ignorant some people are in this country. They will believe anything they hear and become outraged over it, and when it pans out to be nothing, they will forget it, and move on to the next fairytale.

you mean what _should have_ happened to all of it? like, once ALL of them were turned over to NARA - classed or unclassed - deadline of jan 20, 2021? OR do you mean how classed docs should have been handled prior to that, full stop?
WSJ, WP, CNN, MSNBC, PBS, FOX all should ask access to the declassified documents list and also for the declassified documents. This will clear things up. Kash Patel, Trump will have to clarify what all is accessible to them. Supreme Court would get involved- and we would know what is real truth and what is alternative truth.
Exactly. Look what happened with Russian Hoax- they made it up and tried to impeach an innocent President. I’m still waiting for all involved to go down!

I thought the question is not "can he?" but "did he (declassified the documents while he was still President and before he brought them to Mar-a-lago)?".
Since the law only says Government documents and not classified Government documents, Trump having them in his possession became illegal from 1/20/2021 when Trump became a private citizen.
IF he did..there would be a paper trail. I wish everyone would watch this to understand his statement of waving a KFC drumstick and SAYING' they are declassified DOES NOT make them so until ALL procedures are followed. He came out with that BS the day after the search...The reason this new lawyer did not even mention 'his declassification' in the latest answer written to the judge...is that they know it could ne disproven in 5 minutes.
@@jadawin01 Trump can legally possess them as Personal Records. Also, he can store them at his own secure facility while they are technically in the custody of NARA. Just like Obama did. You folks need to get informed.
Good video but you didn't really explain the actual declassification procedure. So he can declassify but there's a procedure. What's the procedure? We don't know😂
He said that he took them. Then after months he refused to give them back. Told them that he already gave them all back but, lied like normal. Got caught with them at his house. Now found 40+ folders empty. WHAT MORE PROOF DO THEY NEED TO LOCK THIS TRAITOR UP? Justice system needs to work for EVERYONE and no one sound ever be above the law!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Classified, or declassified make no difference at all. Trump knowingly having these Government documents is illegal. The law doesn't say classified Government documents, it says Government documents. Everything else is just smoke and mirrors.

There is no documentation that he declassfied the documents that were at Mar-A-Lago. Hypothetically, even if he did, he can´t just take them without permission from the National Archives according to the 1978 Presidential Records Act.
Any President can declassify any document in any way for any reason they want. There is no form they have to fill out. The President also decides what is personal and what is considered presidential records.
@@madhavyu The President is unique in that their power to declassify any document is absolute. Hillary or any other cabinet member does not have that power. All documents are treated and assumed to be at their classification level until someone in informed they're not classified anymore. Any President can literally point to a entire warehouse at Area 51 and say every document in this secret warehouse is now declassified and that's the end of it.
Corruption in our government and politicians representing our people. Any politicians should go to jail for corruption. Nobody should be above the law. Former President Trump should be charged with the classified documents taken off the white house or archives. Many politicians should go to jail not only former president. Americans make a list. Classified documents shouldn't be hold in any presidential house. Enforce the laws of the land USA.
No, not complicated. He was not a king and he is no longer whatever he thinks he was. He did not have the authority to wantonly endanger national security and nor does he now retroactively have such power no matter how much he wants to believe. Fail, go to jail.

So the POTUS says something is declassified this means that he has to do all the work himself? It seems like there would probably be someone else that would do the rest of the work. Like the a construction company owner saying he would build a house... no he has employees that will build the house. Someone just didnt do their job in regards to the declassification order.
What is the position without the person that holds it ????? empty. when she get to Trump she stops and expresses her opinion as it were law. also notice they rely on one court case where the judge wrote something. courts interpret the law not dictate and rewrite laws.
Correct, this video is intentionally misleading. It didn't all of a sudden become a crime for Presidents to declassify documents and move them to a personal storage location. Every past President has done that. But all of the rules and precedents are different now because it's Trump and they hate him.
The 2009 executive order directs the head of the department or agency that originally deemed information classified to oversee declassification reviews, and it sets some standards for them. The executive branch has regulations laying out the process that should be followed, such as a requirement to make sure that other agencies and departments with an interest in the secret are consulted. There are also procedures for the removal of classification markings on documents.
Yes, and can I get some of those declassified documents, and that box of Time Magazines you see at the right side of the picture, and where can I buy that rug?
@@madhavyu Exactly, or perhaps the Saudis could more easily get hold of those secrets and sell them to the Chinese/Russians or exchange them for "favors".
The biggest concern is not why Trump took the secret classified documents but rather what happened to them during their time at Mar-a-Lago and where are the contents of the empty folders? Were they copied by Trump? And/or were they photographed by agents of countries hostile to us?
Trump yells out loud, “I declare these documents declassified”. I think he saw that episode of The Office when Michael declared bankruptcy, but didn’t when the whole episode.
Speculation from his former staff is the documents were related to "Spy Gate" with Carter Page, and "Crossfire Hurricane", which would be both embarrassing and incriminating to the FBI, DOJ and possibly CIA. Look those up. The belief is he intended to hold onto them possibly as leverage against the Deep State, and eventually release them to the public.
True Trumper I see, just because they were empty doesn’t mean the documents aren’t located somewhere else. Jesus Christ!!!! USE YOUR BRAIN. If that was the case why didn’t he say I took empty folders rather than having the DOJ build a case against him.. I FEEL LIKE IM TAKING CRAZY PILLS READING THIS BS.

At a 101 level, the US intelligence system is built on the military (sometimes known as the DoD) intelligence and the non-military (sometimes known in difference) intelligence. Both are commonly known as the IC -- the intelligence community-- managed by the NDI, the national director of intelligence, and supervised by the Congressional committee on the intelligence and the WH presidential instructions.... Well, people can ignore the rest of how the complexity in the priority set by the IC chain of command is. How the IC talks among each other at the diff level of classified, for an example how FEMA can get tbe DoD intelligence info or data for its field humanity-reliefs ops, or how military cross-talks to the non-military. Which community is assigned to collect the US domestic intelligence geospatial data without infringement of the Constitutional rights, etc and etc. One thing we all know for sure that no one can be above the laws of the land, except donald trump?!?!! or some abusing top government's people. Now, FBI is part of the IC but has nothing to do with the classified DoD methodology or vice because of no money for it. The classified is easy to go up, but not that easy to go down without the IC scrutinized and approved. Even the WH presidential order! For example, Barrack Obama decided to declassify the old priority list of US nuclear targets around the globe... It took more than 12 months to come up with the declassified that could be released to the public and the media. But the declassified did not cover every original thing because the sanitation or scrubbing process was to either change or redact the list by each IC member. The FBI is no god of the IC but follows the NDI instructions and the rules of IC membership. Trump knows the IC rules. And he knows he is in the losing end, so he comes with his old dog-trick of blamimg somebody behind the murky rules. He only wants to be like Kim J Un for the U.S by keeping his secret talks in doc to his endearing NK friend, mr Un!!

Who doesn't understand the meanng of the word "empty"?! They are properly called cover sheets and any supply room at CIA, DIA, NSA will give you as many as you want.
It makes no logical sense that he quietly declassified documents without notifying anyone or having a process behind it. Even if he did, it smacks of hypocrisy considering how he used the same argument as a cudgel. And why would he just keep them as "momentos". None of his arguments line up coherently.
It is precedent. Read Judge Amy Berman Jackson's 2012 decision where she rules that "there was no provision in the Presidential Records Act to force the National Archives to seize records from a former president."
LOL, Trump Is Still the Democrats' Daddy. Donald Trump isn’t merely living rent-free in Democrats’ heads, he’s building condos there and having the time of his life. The Dems haven’t been able to enjoy one single moment of their “victory” in the 2020 election because Trump is still out there, smiling, and teasing a run in 2024. They wake up thinking about him. They retire to their beds of shame, thinking about him at the end of every day. The House Soviet Select Committee on Daddy Issues, also known as the J6 Committee, exists solely to make up reasons to keep Trump from running for president again because they know that they have no one who can beat him in a fair fight and without a generous assist from a pandemic. Monkeypox to the rescue.
,um, no CONFIDENTIAL is not the lowest, UNCLASSIFIED, RESTRICTED ACCESS is the lowest and includes stuff such as PRIVACY ACT.

My point is is that they're all above the law. People just believe they're not despite history repeating itself over and over

You hate trump, so you’ll certainly disagree with me, but if this had been Obama, and I was saying he couldn’t take those documents, you would argue executive privilege. Just watch, nothing will come from this. If anything, I think trump took them, because he knew exactly what democrats would do, and trump can play victim on his campaign. Trump is always baiting the democrats, and they fall for it. He always beats them at their own games. Always.

He knows he is toast. That is why he is attacking his accusers. That is what he has always done, even before entering politics.
the President is the apex of classification. The entire classification system exists with the president at the very tip of the pyramid. All intelligence agencies exist to provide the President with information in the PDB. The President can snap his fingers and declassify any document he wants for any reason they want and no one has to sign off on it because no one is above the President. If Biden wanted to declassify all Area 51 documents there is no general or no group of people form the FBI, CIA, DNI, NSA or whatever agency that can stop him.

Ok smarty, what are the contents of the documents specifically? How does classification of documents work? What is protocol? Are all documents considered classified until the president declassified them? Some of these documents could be very meaningless stuff that are automatically classified as secret. I believe the content is going to eventually come out, and it’s going to be nothing really important. Will people that jumped up and down pointing finger at trump apologize for jumping the gun, or will they be good little minions and focus on the next shiny object the media dangles in front of them.

The 2009 executive order directs the head of the department or agency that originally deemed information classified to oversee declassification reviews, and it sets some standards for them.
The executive branch has regulations laying out the process that should be followed, such as a requirement to make sure that other agencies and departments with an interest in the secret are consulted. There are also procedures for the removal of classification markings on documents.

A: Sell them to America's adversaries.
Speculation from his former staff is the documents were related to "Spy Gate" with Carter Page, and "Crossfire Hurricane", which would be both embarrassing and incriminating to the FBI, DOJ and possibly CIA. Look those up. The belief is he intended to hold onto them possibly as leverage against the Deep State, and eventually release them to the public.

At a 101 level, the US intelligence system is built on the military (sometimes known as the DoD) intelligence and the non-military (sometimes known in difference) intelligence. Both are commonly known as the IC -- the intelligence community-- managed by the NDI, the national director of intelligence, and supervised by the Congressional committee on the intelligence and the WH presidential instructions.... Well, people can ignore the rest of how the complexity in the priority set by the IC chain of command is. How the IC talks among each other at the diff level of classified, for an example how FEMA can get tbe DoD intelligence info or data for its field humanity-reliefs ops, or how military cross-talks to the non-military. Which community is assigned to collect the US domestic intelligence geospatial data without infringement of the Constitutional rights, etc and etc. One thing we all know for sure that no one can be above the laws of the land, except donald trump?!?!! or some abusing top government's people.
Now, FBI is part of the IC but has nothing to do with the classified DoD methodology or vice because of no money for it.
The classified is easy to go up, but not that easy to go down without the IC scrutinized and approved. Even the WH presidential order! For example, Barrack Obama decided to declassify the old priority list of US nuclear targets around the globe... It took more than 12 months to come up with the declassified that could be released to the public and the media. But the declassified did not cover every original thing because the sanitation or scrubbing process was to either change or redact the list by each IC member. The FBI is no god of the IC but follows the NDI instructions and the rules of IC membership.
Trump knows the IC rules. And he knows he is in the losing end, so he comes with his old dog-trick of blamimg somebody behind the murky rules. He only wants to be like Kim J Un for the U.S by keeping his secret talks in doc to his endearing NK friend, mr Un!!

Like the way Trump praises Putin as awesome as a leader, then even asks Putin to help him release "evidence of Hunter Biden" so he could overturn the election lol lol lol
Trumper is always unique in logic world!! :))))
Everyone saw it coming but nobody could stop it
when people have missiles
= use theirs
= feng-shui resting points in stucked areas
= wait or insult or antagonise, within kamma, which means they have to start first.
= after one round, shift points, do more, some more
= after they drag out till old weapons and unsuitable weapons and desperation and no-more
= declassify feng-shui and methodologies to antagonise and why canot be afraid of words and which area to 忍
Shows what 45 has always been - all talk only. And as we know, talk is cheap.
you take it home and...ehhh whatever.
Is it true that Trump is selling the contents of the empty folders at auction on eBay? Also, is it true that bidding is starting at 1.5 million Rubles?
Leo expertly asked just like Tucker C would, and did you brow wrinkle up like a Chow dog. Don't get me wrong I like your comment
Self comes before family.
Family comes before work.
Who in continental China does not know this? Babies?
complicated question is: can trump satisfy wsj in his other mansions?
☺️👍🏻Thanks to understand
President knows what he is doing. Selective prosecution.
Donald Trump was the Head of the Military while being President; any other officer doing such as he, would be brought up on criminal charges for such egregious misconduct .
As Commander-In-Chief, he should be held accountable and face criminal charges for such egregious breach of military conduct and protocol.
ill quote jason "Literally false. A President can declare anything he wants to be a Personal Record at his own discretion, anything he takes home is presumed to be a Personal Record as decided in the 2012 court decision Judicial Watch vs NARA (Clinton sock drawer tapes). He can also store documents at his own secure facility while they're in the custody of NARA, same as Obama did. You're comparing the President's rights and authorities to classifications and storing documents to a normal citizen or lower level bureaucrat or official, but a President has much more authority under the Constitution which is backed up by case law. Get informed, then comment."
Ok..I understand these things,but..all of this is circumstantial if the feds did not record..before they left,or even tape what was in those boxes as they were having a look-see...what left the Teflon Don's abode may not be what arrived..it only matters what's in those boxes if the feds can prove that said contents are one and the same..
...
Everytime someone talks about this guy I want to throw up
I know that it doesn't matter but "classification" is spelled incorrectly at 1:50
This is factually wrong. Do some actual research.

@@callyourgeek He's still a grifter. Stop defending the crook.
@@petergilkes7082 stop hanging out with butter knives... its making you the dullest knife in the drawer.
@@callyourgeek Is that really a saying where you come from? Is it Boresville, Kentucky?
Who would take remove documents and leave the empty folder? If the docs were really there, and really removed, the folders would be gone also. Smart people know this fact, and the others are just showing how dumb they really are....again.....
Trump appoints judge. Judge goes way outside the norm to accommodate Trump. Looks like quid pro quo.
This is a security and safety issue of the United States of America safety!! Whom did Trump sell these documents to??????
THe court case cited may well apply to any member of he executive branch save the President as "The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America. " The second circuit nor any member of article III courts may override the fact that Executive power and how it is used is only the purview of the President as the Executive. Note the narrator said The Court, to infer the US Supreme Court (not that it would matter) and avoided stating it was a case from the SD-NY
Why was he holding on to those documents, for what purpose?
