Because providing the details of the President’s declassification of the documents (which btw is known to the GSA which handled the transfer days before he left the WH), provides exposure of defensive evidence (which may be needed and could then not be used) should the idiots try to INDICT him... on “just because we say so”. Make the very declas details the REASON basis for an indictment-— when it can not ever be.
Getting the Special Master to “enable” their continued invention of a “crime” into a process “crime”. This is the point of the comments that declassification is NOT subject to the bureaucrats that served under the Executive. There is much precedence and Constitutional support- Presidential declass is the TOP clearance.
In this case the declas lifts the rock exposing the worms who have been violating Federal Statutes governing their actions....for several decades. Extra-judiciary and Extra- Executive actions of the said ... administrative state, which has NO power to do this unless they fake it— as they have done, and which protects THEM not national security. Like calling Trump a Russian agent, invented by hitlery’s money and completely fabricated narrative washed through willing complicit criminal police actions to cover up said actions.
The argument you are making about the President's right to declassify is an argument that Trump's lawyers are refusing to make in court. They haven't even claimed that Trump actually did declassify the documents. Arguing that the president has the right to declassify documents is irrelevant unless you show that he actually did.
And I'm not saying that he had to follow any bureaucratic red tape to do so. If you want to argue he can declassify documents just by thinking about it, and not telling anyone else or writing it down, that's fine. If you want to say that all he has to do is tell someone, that's fine too. But then you have to submit an affidavit from President Trump saying that he mentally declassified these documents, or from someone saying they were party to a conversation in which he declassified the documents. But they won't do even that.
They're going to lose, and rightfully so, if they stick to that ridiculous position.
