Any documents in the possession of a former President are PRESUMED declassified. This has been the case for a long time. It is up to the government to rebut that presumption.

Because msnbc has never shown a hint of political bias.

It’s obvious the people on this thread arguing that the declass is illegitimate have no interest in dealing accepting the truth. They’ll argue simply because it’s Trump. Sad.

former president could have potentially damaging records, in not even a residence, practically in a very public place, with lots of foreign leaders coming to visit. That doesn’t bother you at ALL?


Nope, doesn't bother me at all.

The Supreme Court reaffirmed this in the 1988 case, Department of the Navy v. Egan : "The President, after all, is the 'Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States.' U.S. Const., Art. II, § 2. His authority to classify and control access to information bearing on national security...flows primarily from this constitutional investment of power in the President, and exists quite apart from any explicit congressional grant."

1. all such sensitive information requires a formal process. a speech or typing is not enough. 2. the material in question is covered by 4 levels. two of the levels require a committee to review so they can inform many agencies of the change and so that no one person decides.
