I’m interested in those dozens of empty “classified” folders. There government doesn’t just buy those off the shelf.

Especially with how poor they are at flushing? Have you seen these things, the low-flow toilets? (Old callback to 2019 that suddenly seems relevant? Trump's toilet claim: Americans need to flush '10 times, 15 times' | CNN Politics)

My bleary eyes initially couldn’t resolve whether that was “shittiest” or “shiftiest.”
I quickly realized it’s good either way.

Getting something good enough for a warrant is obviously a different matter; but does it strike anyone as remotely plausible that the only classified documents floating around just happened to be the ones within the one search warrant that was executed and came up with a rather alarming supply?

The latest excuse coming from the Trump camp is that he needed to hold onto these classified docs because he was afraid Biden might destroy them. It’s not just “two wrongs make a right” it’s “one wrong makes a right, just in case there’s another wrong”-- pre-emptively correcting an imaginary crime.

Isn’t this toilet still missing? Wouldn’t be surprised if it showed up at MAL. Just when did he visit the UK?

“A gang broke into the 18th Century stately home and caused “significant damage and flooding” because the toilet was plumbed into the building.“
Amateurs.

This highlights still more flawa in our processes for keeping these documents safe.

The president, despite being the head of the executive branch, needs to be forced to obey the same rules as everyone else. This includes not taking SCIF-worthy documents into the crapper at the residence, or, even worse, off the premises to a shitty resort. Yeah, I see the inherent problem: who’s gonna force him? But it’s a loophole that needs to be plugged. SOMEHOW.

The president should not be able to directly declassify documents. make the review process short, and provide means for expediting it; but make sure multiple brains get to consider the implications.
These processes, like so many others, weren’t designed with a self-centered, norm-eschewing scofflaw in mind.

Yet more evidence it was Trump? Professionals would already know that he wouldn’t pay them.

problematically, who enforces those rules? his cabinet could have gotten rid of him at any time, and yet they all liked what he was doing and so they didn’t
