Gergen admits Berger violated Archive rules by leaving the building with notes on classified documents. But, he added, "It's not a serious violation." BS. Anyone who's ever been around classified information knows it is an extremely serious violation. Serious enough for someone like me to spend a long time breaking rocks if I had done it. Geregn is in either an uninformed fool or deliberately lying to play on the ignorance of an uninformed public.
There is pinning and there is lying - this goes way beyond spinning.

Exactly. No way around it, Berger is in big trouble for the improper/illegal removal and compromise (lost) classified documents. On top of that is the scalding hot political water explained in
Mark Levin: This is why Berger stole the documents and 'lost' them

He worked in three administrations, he's obviously had clearance at various times (you need it for the WH), and he knows the classification rules.
What he's saying above is a set of bald-face, flat-out lies, and he right well knows it. Everyone who's ever had clearance knows it too.

If you or I or anyone with a clearance got caught taking copies of anything from Secret up out in our pants, we would have spent our lives busting rocks at the big L.
