Probably both.

The author also found the following on Facebook, that needs to be addressed:



Retrieved in January 2022

184 unique classified documents

92 secret documents

67 confidential documents

25 top secret documents

ABC news.

Every single one of those highlighted words is completely wrong. Those classifications (which should not have been leaked, of course) come from pencil pushers; that is, hired bureaucrats assigned those classifications to the documents. There is only one person in the land who can officially classify and declassify documents, and that is the President of the United States. He gets that plenary power through the Constitution and the will of We the People, who elected him.

To the extent bureaucrats assign classifications to documents, they do so only through delegated power. No matter how many little red rubber stamps they use to mark up documents, it is the president who has the final say. Not the Department of Justice, not the FBI, and certainly not some soggy little bureaucrats in the National Archives.

In this case, Trump issued a standing order declassifying all documents related to the Russia Hoax. That is enough to override everything else. But even if he hadn’t given a standing order, his plenary power means that, when he acted in a way that effectively declassified the documents, that action had the full force and effect of a verbal order doing so. The power is all his. Because there’s no evidence that Biden tried to re-classify the documents, they are declassified, and everything to the contrary is sheer ignorance or a blatant lie. (This charge of ignorance or dishonesty applies to RINO GOP Sen. Roy Blunt, of course.)

The Mar-a-Lago raid gets stinkier with every passing day, and the media is spinning more frantically. I only hope that Trump’s lawyers and spokespeople are capable and can make the right case both in the court (which has no right to override Trump’s declassification actions) and to the American people.

There’s lots of problems with the affidavit the biggest problem being constitutionally, you don’t present the affidavit AFTER the search, you present it BEFORE the search and it must contain reasonable evidence or PROBABLE CAUSE of a crime.

Apparently the creeps at the highest levels of governments have found they can manuipulate millions with hyperbolic headlines.

BLM, covid, the Ukraine, the “big lie”, and now this.

Go with “DISHONEST”. And that’s putting it mildly.

I believe that PDJT didn’t, just, declassify everything to do with the Russian Collusion Hoax, but also the Shrillary email investigation.
Possibly, the DNC email / Wikileaks thingy?
That last one is just a guess.

I saw this morning that Newt Gingrich expects President Trump to be indicted.

I agree with Mr Newt. I too expect him to be indicted AFTER the November election. The Uniparty is scared poopless of a second Trump Term and are desperate to get him out of the picture. The Uniparty and their Just-us Dept. know with any indictment will come a pretty fierce pushback. But after the election, nothing will come of that pushback.
So, with an indictment, they are one step closer to having President Trump declared ineligible to hold public office.

It isn’t ignorant. It is both dishonest and malignant.

This was a general warrant and should not have been issued.

I’m not impressed when I hear the term “classified documents.” It seems that they will classify pretty much everything, probably even a recipe for clam chowder.

Does the affidavit even specify what was supposedly “obstructed”?

I believe this hoax as much as I believed all the other hoaxes, which all turned out to be hoaxes.

This is not true. There are others that have what is called "original classification authority."
