“How on earth was I supposed to know whether a document would be stamped ‘Top Secret’ at some later date?”
That is the most ignorant quote in the whole batch. Anyone who has ever worked with Top Secret/SCIF material knows that is not the way it works.
Hoping someone who knows how will post the Facebook commercial showing the old ladies arguing with one saying: “That’s not how this works, that’s not how any of this works”
