Getting Closer to the Classification Question From CNN today: "Trump's team also wrote that a 'President enjoys absolute authority under the Executive Order to declassify any information. There is no legitimate contention that the Chief Executive's declassification of documents requires...

For easy reverence I'm posting the link to #13,043 here. Busy day today. I'll get to it as time permits. https://www.expeditersonline.com/forums/threads/the-trump-card.66307/page-653#post-884038

In what ways specifically have you seen FBI/DOJ demonstrate an obvious political bias against Trump since he announced his candidacy? I don't ask so as to deny it happened. I know there are some examples. But I'd like to get the examples stated so their context can be established and compared to...

On a day when I am mindful of and a bit emotional about this event, it saddens me to see you twist this hallowed day to pitch your dissatisfaction with something of a different sort. My wife and I spend some time this morning remembering that horrific day, thinking about those who died, and...

I acknowledge this is a point of view deeply believed by many. And I acknowledge that there have indeed been cases where corrupt officials broke the rules or acted in ways that undermine the integrity of the law enforcement departments or agencies in which they serve. Examples that come...

If by "she" you mean Judge Cannon, the lack of trust is one of the distinguishing features of any court, is it not? You don't just get to say something is such and such, you must prove it under the court's rules of procedure and evidence.

Likely not true and meaningless even if it was. Top secret documents are not kept in people's desk drawers when the desk owner is away months at a time; or, for that matter, even when the desk owner is present.

That is a significant court ruling. Much rides on this beyond this court. I'm surprised there has been no loud talk yet of appeal.

We also know a court agreed probable cause existed to believe three crimes have been committed that warranted the legal search of Mar-a-Lago and the legal seizure of the materials listed on inventories later released. It was not illegal for the FBI to seize what the seized. If executive...

Other than the good reasons DOJ has openly cited in its court filings, is there another "good reason." that you know about but the general public does not? What exactly are you getting at when you speculate about a "good reason?"

The Classification Question in Court Yesterday As mentioned above, I'm keeping a close eye on what is said about the classified documents in Judge Cannon's court. Having read the joint filing joint filing presented to the Judge today, this comment on Twitter seems to sum things up nicely...

Yes, these are the same attorneys who were ridiculed. No, they were not given no chance of success. The "hand-picked-judge" aspect of this case (believed by many Trump critics) led many to believe the Trump attorney's had a high chance of success. It's kinda hard to not believe that when the...

Just Another Day in Trump World Judge throws out Trump lawsuit against Hillary Clinton (Source) Former Trump White House lawyer Ty Cobb calls him "deeply wounded narcissist" who acted in "criminal" way to overturn Biden win (Source)

Waiting With Great Interest I find it fascinating how DOJ maneuvered Trump into a position where he has no choice but to discuss the classification/declassification question in open court. That filing deadline is 10am today. I am eager to see what Trump's lawyers say about this on the public...

Trump is a private citizen now and will be after he files to be a candidate for president. He gains zero special status by filing to be president. If DOJ was concerned about Trumps special status, or if they assigned any special status to Trump by virtue of him being a former president, they...

More About Trump Being Forced to Discuss Classification Status in Open Court Trump has avoided the question (are docs classified or declassified?) in court. That ends tomorrow. It will be interesting to see how Trump's lawyers respond. Much hinges on the answer. It appears DOJ backed Judge...

Two Developments 1. Today, DOJ gave notice of its intent to appeal Judge Cannon's ruling. 2. Late this evening, Judge Cannon responded to that filing. She ordered both parties to have statements ready about one of the points DOJ raised today. Details are sketchy as the reporting is early, but...

That's not quite correct. 1. If you read the hearing transcript, you'll see a place where DOJ agreed to release unseal the status of the Privilege Review Team's filter review that it filed with the court last week. But Trump's lawyers have opposed it -- and rather than suggest specific...

Now we know. DOJ appealed Judge Cannon's ruling today.

While it's tempting to dive in to debate your points, we don't even know if DOJ will appeal the ruling yet. It has not even been a full business day since the ruling was issued. I have found the DOJ filings to be very informative so I'm waiting to see if another will be filed soon. The photo...
