Vindman stating that Trump didn't follow the "interagency consensus", as if POTUS was supposed to follow their orders. People in government think too much of themselves. The root of our problem is the permanent bureaucracy. The same people trying to take Trump down. The same people who use classified documents as both a weapon, and a means of shielding their own misbehavior. Look at all the redactions made to hide their wrongdoing. 100% spot on There is another issue that has reared its head of late. It is the infusion of large sums of cash from super wealthy individuals into public services. We all know about Mark Zuckerberg buying the election offices in about 10 precincts. We know about Jeff Bezos buying the Washington Post. (Yes, the WA PO is a private business but since its the newspaper of the US capital, it is a quasi public service.) Do a little homework on David Rubenstein and the national archives. This one guy has a enormous say on how the national archives are run. Now we know the national archives were part of the documents scam. Someone needs to offer him a chance to talk about his role. |

Trying the wrap-up smear using an anonymous poster suggesting it may have been the rolling stone (there’s a quality source, I bet it was Jackie Coakly that said it!) citing an anonymous source. And the anonymous poster you mention said that he wasn’t sure if that’s where you heard it? That’s an odd statement |

I qualified my statement with "word is" which is similar to "rumor has it" which means I don't know for sure and this was not official or verified... legal NY scuttlebut is that that the trump's attorneys were doing a victory dance over the delay and that they didn't believe they had any chance of success in the actual outcome... ie "we might lose the battle but we won the war." I explained this earlier and I am careful in choosing my words and don't allege things as fact unless I have a reasonable basis to believe them so.

Originally Posted By Cincinnatus: Sounds like an…”anonymous source” Or a lie. Certainly confirmation bias. Legal NY scuttlebutt says that you fabricate stories about Legal NY scuttlebutt. I can’t tell you who said this, though, because stuff. View Quote Try again to understand (read slowly): Trump's lawyers have been seeking delays so as to forestall the prosecutions. To accomplish this they have been making appeals, the vast majority have a low chance of success, but hoping one will gain traction and delay the actual trial. The fact that trump has been repeatedly losing in court cannot be lost upon you... can it? The timing of the Supreme Court’s decision is as important if not more so than the outcome... if the appeal results in a delay that extends beyond the election, they have succeeded in their goal. That trumps lawyers were celebrating their victory in gaining that procedural delay based upon their strategy's success, is neither "biased" nor taking sides. Furthermore, discussing the unlikely possibility that trump's lawyers will prevail and that they understand this, is also neither taking sides nor "biased." Except for untutored laymen (like you), few lawyers or constitutional scholars actually believe this nation bestows absolute criminal immunity upon a president. Lower courts have all rejected those arguments, including a unanimous three-judge panel on the appeals court. Nearly four years ago, all nine justices rejected Trump’s claim of absolute immunity from a district attorney’s subpoena for his financial records. Even Thomas pointed to the text of the Constitution and how it was understood by the people who ratified it saying: “The text of the Constitution … does not afford the President absolute immunity” |

Think of it like a fortune 100 company, but no one can be fired and they don’t have to answer to their stock holders. One thing I don't understand is the left's tactics here. Why hasn't everyone charged with mishandling classified information asserted that it was declassified by Trump as he left office and subpoenaed the crap out of him and the documents he has in his possession? I'm sure there are a few Democrat idiots willing to volunteer for this if necessary. Dealing with those would be a distraction and annoyance and cost money for lawyers as well as making for excellent talking points for the election campaign even if the court doesn't issue a subpoena. Originally Posted By AFARR: Near as I can tell, it’s not. 42 USC Chapter 23 Division A Section 2165 deals with security clearances. Makes no mention of a President leaving office and losing clearance. Does (paragraph c) talk about accepting clearance granted by other gov agencies*. The word President appears 220 times in that section and makes it very clear the Sec Energy reports to him. *now, if Biden pulled his clearance after he left office, you could make that argument that he lost his DOE clearance when it was done, but it’s nowhere in the act that I can find that it’s automatic on leaving office. |
