Because that's where this is going.
There is a process that’s followed, I believe, so it should be easy enough to prove.
The president chooses the items to be declassified
Someone writes up the order
The classification markings are modified
My question is can the next president reclassify the documents?
and therefore any warrant based on the idea that such and item is classified is obviously claimed incompetently, and moreover is criminal to have asked for, and criminal to have as a judge granted
I would think the last would not be true, but read Biden did that to Trump. It is unprecedented I would think.
I can’t say it’s a particularly “good” way to declassify documents, it’s very unorthodox and not particularly secure, but it’s one way of doing business and the President has the final say.
Since the documents were removed for long-term storage (presumably for a future Presidential library archive) rather than daily work file transport, it raises a question of whether or not Biden could then reclassify the files, since the files were in a controlled space. Still, that’s not what was alleged in the seizure warrant, and if that was an ulterior motive to reclaim the documents if only to deny them to Trump, that’s ... well, that’s totally a thing the current regime would do.
I'm afraid that defense won't do much good if it's raised in a DC court, considering the DC jury pool.

Tim Scott comes around to this is “Overreach”
Ohh.
That is damning AF - “overreach”
Of course they blacked out the name of the agent who signed off and issued the warrant.
I guess we can stick with Garland, Wray, and Reinhart being our pinatas, until we learn about who else was involved in the take down.

As if the Truth matters.
They were there for legal strategy, business deals, sources of income, correspondence with Lawyers, Campaign plans, evaluation of potential new hires, receipts, etc.
I think that Biden took President Trump’s security access.
There is a process that’s followed, I believe, so it should be easy enough to prove.
nope
not for the President or VP. no process is needed
they can just declare them declassified and thats it
GAME. SET. MATCH.
The President can declassify any document at any time in any manner he wishes.

I agree, based on the info currently out there, that the SCOTUS will eventually get an appeal. In that event, the Rats will do everything in their power to undermine the Trump appointees (except Roberts). I can hear the screams for “recusal” now...
The president doesn’t have to write up anything. He can wave his hands over the documents and say, ‘Presto! Declassified.’ Why is that so hard to grasp? The president is the ultimate consumer of all the classified information, and as the head of the executive answers to no one else within the executive. This is not rocket science. But points out why it is so important to select the president based on serious criteria, and not how he combs his hair or if he tweets mean things.
How did docs get in Trump’s possession? Why did they leave the docs in june?
