House Oversight Committee to National Archives: "Give us the 15 boxes of classified information that Trump took with him to Mar-a-lago."
National Archives: "Okay."
DOJ: "Not so fast."
HOC: "What? Why?"
DOJ: "Because we're investigating him, and that's our evidence."
" (CNN)The Justice Department has begun investigating the handling 15 boxes of White House records, including classified information, taken to Mar-a-Lago after former President Donald Trump left office, a source familiar with the matter tells CNN.
This comes as the Justice Department is blocking the National Archives from sharing details on the boxes with Congress, which has launched its own investigation.
The FBI and Justice prosecutors routinely conduct reviews when classified materials are found to have been handled or stored in ways that don't meet government requirements. Moving and storing classified information to the former President's private club in Florida would appear to fall outside those requirements.
It is also common practice for the Justice Department to limit information that government agencies share with Congress while an investigation is ongoing."

One question pops to mind:
How does the National Archives have the boxes if Trump took them to Mar-a-lago after he left office?
The article speaks of "recovered boxes."One question pops to mind:
How does the National Archives have the boxes if Trump took them to Mar-a-lago after he left office?
Oh ok, he returned them to the National Archives. They recovered them after he left office, he didn't take them after he left office.National Archives says Trump took 15 boxes of White House records to Florida
The former president took documents that were supposed to be turned over to the National Archives to his home in Florida, the agency said.www.nbcnews.com

The "Just say anything" trump supporter defense. Never gets old.Oh ok, he returned them to the National Archives. They recovered them after he left office, he didn't take them after he left office.

A couple articles that, compounded, show that trump's destruction or stealing of records were part of a pattern, and that he knew it was illegal. I don't think it's an accident that trump only breaks laws that require mens rea to prosecute, and we have mens rea.
Great. I'm sure Garland will need several years to cross T's and dot I's.The short of it:

Biden wanted a ponderous judge, and a ponderous judge he got. Although to be fair, as recent news shows, he didn't expect him to be this ponderous.Great. I'm sure Garland will need several years to cross T's and dot I's.
Are the things you write about people your real feelings? I was commenting on the actual wording of the article.
Seriously?
Oh my God, he's made his slavish Trump defense even dumber.
Trump never took them because, Cope tells us, he gave them back once his dirty tricks were discovered. Nevermind that he couldn't have given them back if he didn't take them in the first place. Nevermind that. Cope says to just believe his gaslighting because....errrr....because ooga booga I guess.
How can you even think to say something that stupid? Jesus.
You can also be added to the Mr Person list in my head if you so wish.The "Just say anything" trump supporter defense. Never gets old.
Anyway, it was very important that Trump steal this classified info and presidential records, and he was all too happy to give it back, which means one of two things: the classified info he was afraid of was never there, or he destroyed the classified info he was afraid of. Or, third possibility: at the most benign, he saw no way to profit from that classified info.
And still would. He should be punished as anyone should if they mishandle classified information, but precedents has kinda been set at this point.I remember when some conservatives went batshit crazy over mishandled classified information…
That false equivalency deserves some kind of Olympics award.And still would. He should be punished as anyone should if they mishandle classified information, but precedents has kinda been set at this point.
Oh ok, he returned them to the National Archives. They recovered them after he left office, he didn't take them after he left office.
