You make that statement and then say that I say stupid shit. You're an idiot.
You don't say stupid shit, like for example saying that polls don't involve facts? LOL!
You just proved you ignore facts when developing your opinion, even when those facts are about yourself. Thanks for clarifying it for us. Who's the idiot?

In my experience when a person gets classified documents ( Secret, Top Secret etc... ) they are signed out from storage by the custodian as to whom was receiving them and the chain of custody is maintained that way. When they are returned they are signed back in.

They should know without a doubt who signed out those documents. They should also know exactly what was missing and who had custody. They would have known this from day # 1 when he left office that the documents were not returned. Classified at Secret \\ SCI and Top Secret \\ SCI level, I would think they would have executed a warrant long before 18 months had passed.
Things have changed somewhat, while technically illegal I could have easily printed out any number of secret/TS documents and just walked out the door with them when I was in a decade ago. They might have had auditing on the TS shit (unlikely given how leaky things were) but definitely not the secret, and DEFINITELY not the TS/secret sitting on unclass systems where it shouldn't have been.

Well that is just pathetic.

I find it absolutely hilarious, but not surprising, that @pcgeek11 went from "they went too hard on Trump, why?" to "they are too soft on Trump, why?"

I see you lack understanding.

At first I said that I didn't think they needed the drama entry and 30 agents to gather a few documents. I still think that.

What I am talking about after seeing the actual numbers and the classification levels is why they waited so long as Secret and Top Secret documents esp \\SCI level should be accounted for with respect to who checked them out and if they were returned or not. If this is not the case then our security system at the White House is severely lacking and pathetic.

IMO they should have known what was missing exactly and who checked it out. It also seems unusual to wait 18 months to retrieve data that is this sensitive. They could have still gone in with a few agents and retrieved these without all the drama.

Knowing the high level of classification of the documents and the resistance to turning them over do you think the FBI was warranted?

That latest Trump post is amazing. Read it just above. His complaint is that it can't be a "big find" because the FBI didn't find them on the floor like that--they took them out of cartons.

Thanks for confirming that those documents were taken out of cartons at your place, nimrod. Somehow I think the fact that the documents are on the floor instead of hidden in cartons that you owned, at your place, isn't all that relevant. I wonder if he's just upset that other people are pawing through "his stuff".


At the very least no Trump supporters are going to be arguing that the docs were planted there, when the dude himself is admitting he had them.

I'm not going at anyone...

Trying to see the logic.
I think that logic can be formal and mathematical in precision but that in matters where partisan affiliation can introduce invisible rationalizations, it behooves a truth seeker, and not the apologist, to rely also on pattern recognition. Just because something walks like a duck, quacks like a duck has a bill and flippers, does prove it's a duck. It could be a merganser depending on the bill.

But for most people the accumulation of data regarding Trump and their own experiences with con men and criminals leads to an irrepressible inner scream that criminal and con man is what we are looking at and out of that inner survival mechanism to heed the warnings triggered in the amygdala even by inputs below conscious awareness, there will arise in the mentation of most observers of those not so triggered that they are fooling themselves out of ego. And because the triggered experience is fear the real feelings fear hopes to suppress will arise unbidden, namely a large dose of contempt for those who don't register what a dangerous demagogue Trump really is. Just saying.

For me it's simple.

If I, a John Q Public, somehow used my influence (if I had any) to not only get hold of these docs, but then I took them home....what would happen to me?

Obviously the actual contents of the docs could matter, and we don't know what that is yet.

Whatever would happen to me, should happen to Trump, or Biden, or any other person who had them. Nobody should be above the law.

What I do NOT want to see is some consideration based on politics, or being worried about threats from angry Trump supporters aka Graham saying there will be riots. I do half expect to see this kind of cowardice however no matter what the facts show in the case.

You are making the dangerous assumption the Trump Whitehouse adhered to norms when it comes to handling classified material.

Back in your experience, they probably didn't have printers. Or copy machines.

There is no "checking out" of shit now a days bro get with the times. Documents are stored on these things called "computers" now a days.

Were I under federal investigation I would simply not admit to my crimes on the internet.


These documents that he had all boxed up… these are the ones the FBI planted? At one point days ago, Trump demanded the documents be returned, but NOW they're planted?

“I did an excellent job organizing my stolen documents. Many people are saying it was the most organized carton they’ve ever seen.”lol

Ah ... Let him talk, or "truth", whatever. He just openly admitted that he had a carton of classified documents in his home and that he knew about it.
I’m sure his "lawyers" will be thrilled about this.

“Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.” – Napoleon

He's had some real unhinged posts in the last few days. Run a new election IMMEDIATELY!, Qanon and 4chan conspiracy nonsense. "Why is everybody so mean to me!". He's flooding the zone with shit to trigger, deflect and violence-up his base who believes everything he says.

I get that. Where I have a problem is that when I see something as IMO that only means it's an opinion and I have a very hard time squaring where MO contradicts large numbers of real world professionals like the DOJ, the FBI, the Judicial system, reams of lawyerly opinion tell me I'm full of shit. I try to use that duck thingi. Who is more likely to spot the merganser, me or an ornithologist? I don't think your opinion puts its ducks in a row. But that doesn't mean I need to jump off a building somewhere. I try to look for the humor in things, like the woman who jump out of a hotel window having just caught her husband having a room there with another woman, and landing on him after she jumped, killing him as he was leaving the building.

I gotta ask, are you surprised Trump did this?

CNN article on the Trump response:
Link

Here's the key sentence from that article (it's the last sentence):
The DOJ's internal filter team has already finished its work of segregating those materials from what is shared with investigators, the department said Tuesday, and the rest of the documents have already been reviewed by the agents working on the case.

Would seem this whole argument over a special master is moot.
