Oh ANDY McCarthy, not Charlie. No matter, both are ventriloquist's dummies. Charlie is Edgar Bergen's, Andy is Klaus Schwab's.
Oh look, another deadbeat loser working for the Deep state
Why don’t they rename it “Democrat Review?”
When they start picking fly s*** off of rice in an effort to explain the legal case against trump, you sure as h*** know that the government should not be prosecuting a former president and leading presidential candidate over this document nonsense.
I guess he is just going to ignore precedent
Makes no sense. ALL records are presidential records if in the presidents hands. Otherwise the president is not the ultimate power in the executive branch.
Which agencies are not under the executive branch?
I wish Trump would quit messing around and hire Barnes already.
Barnes Law says different.
National Review is dying a thousand deaths.
Why even post the crap from NR and McClueless?
NR died when Buckley did.
Lost me at “Andrew C. McCarthy”
Did the judge in the Clinton sock drawer case draw that distinction?
No.
McCarthy does not impress me. Never has. Never will.
ANY Document that is handed to the President is a Presidential Record,
no matter which agency generates it.
Oh ANDY McCarthy, not Charlie. No matter, both are ventriloquist's dummies. Charlie is Edgar Bergen's, Andy is Klaus Schwab's.
It’s all BS. Every Presidential Library has documents so sensitive you have to have clearance to view them in a private setting.
So, am I to understand bureaucracies hold the ultimate keys to power in our form of government?
And no, I didn’t read the article because it is being a pay wall.
This type of idiocy wouldn't even pass muster in your local mom & pop business.
McCarthy is a deep state piece of chit that is incapable of understanding the U.S. Constitution. He needs to understand exactly what the first sentence of Article II, section 1 of the Constitution means. Perhaps it is difficult for McCarthy since he never had a real job in his life. It’s difficult because he never founded and operated a business. He was never an executive.
Thinking like McCarthy relies on the notion that the permanent bureaucratic state does not answer to the President. He does not understand that all documents, processes, and procedures within the executive branch are for the benefit and at the direction of the President. The classification of records does not pertain to the President, but rather to everyone that works for the President. All laws and executive orders that address classified information direct everyone except the President on the procedures for classified information.
The Presidential Records Act even states the President chooses which records are personal or not, despite the Presidential Records Act is clearly unconstitutional per sentence 1 of Article II, section 1 of the U.S. Constitution. Only a moronic peanut farmer would have signed it into law, because it attempts to codify executive decision making. Only an idiot President would allow Congress to usurp executive powers.
McCarthy can place himself on the same cognitive level as Jimmy Carter.
Alright, Andrew, this is it!! All your ramblings are on the line on this one. Either you are right or you are banished to the MAGA eternal enemy hell hole known as the Deep State. It appears McCarthy needs to go back to law school and attend a few lectures by Mark Levin. It’s a shame that lawyers like McCarthy and Barr let their personal prejudices destroy their legal objectivity.
Article II section 1: “The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America.”
No agencies and none of their work product are separate from the unitary executive as described above. The President is RESPONSIBLE for all agency work and documents, and they belong to him.
He is wrong. The PRA also includes documents “received “ by the President. This would include classified briefings. Another point is that the documents in question or copies. The government still has the original documents.
