  1. Well Well Well
    The President does not need to write anything as of anything for it to be declassified; Only to do by action.
    Declared by law and SCOUS precident,
    As such anything at The President residence is declassified. Law.
    However, Interesting thought as of the mid term elections.
    Democratics beware!!!!!, might be in serious trouble.
    If the GOP has the numbers; as only needs simple majority in the house 🏠,
    they can impeach:
    1 The President and then
    2 The Vice President
    And the Senate by 2/3 vote terminates the President & Vice President term of office 🏬
    Which will make the House 🏠 Speaker
    Who will be a Republican;
    The President of USA 🇺🇸.
    What happens if no GOP in congress wants or takes the job.
    Can/ How does Donald Trump get the job.

  2. He and his family should already be doing time. Orange is the new Trump!

  3. Lol and nothing will happen

  4. Tweety's legal problems are going to eat up that $2 billion gift from MBS to the royal orange crime family very very quickly.

  5. Once he was no longer President he Had No Right to Take any of it anyway .

  6. Where are the rest of the missing documents?

  7. There's the picture of the most hated family in the United States, scums, profiters, liars, racists, you name it, this is what the trumpists are.

  8. Great.
    he always been above the Law. People are wondering why?

  9. After an entire life time of lying, dodging, bribing, blackmailing, cheating, pretending, nepotism, hypocrisy, stupidity, corruption, incompetency, bigotry, dishonesty, degeneration, desecration, thievery, thuggery, treachery, grifting and threatening lives the chickens have finally come home to roost…. Yeah…. Hurray ! Have they taken measurements for his Orange suit for him and his family yet ? However, now I wont be surprised that he will use those stolen important / confidential / national Secret Documents as Get Out of Jail Free card….

  10. Democrat party destruction mounts as it's now 45 days until their devastation to save America

  11. He is not president and there was photos of office boxes stacked on top of each other in his final days. I questioned it when it happened. Now they are still being wishy-washy about the matter! Anyone else would have been slapped with handcuffs long ago.

  12. She said stop 🛑 power voting rights because now Donald trump is going to prison for this junk

  13. TRUMP IS A TYRANT FROM THE DARK AGES AND SHOULD JUST BE LOCKED UP

  14. These people have led the high life for too long at the taxpayers expense. They need to be taken down. DEMOCRACY AMERICA.

  15. Trump's face right now…😠😫🤨!

  16. Maybe we'll get a quick look at those "taxes"?

  17. THEY GOT HIM THIS TIME!! no wait… THIS TIME THEY GOT HIM!!!….no wait wait….THISSSSS time we found something to get him!! No wait…. absolutely this time without a doubt WE GOT EM!! ….. no wait someone dig deeper and find something… anything! Ahhh THIS TIME WE GOT HIM!!! HAHA all the evidence Is SOOO OVERWHELMING ON THIS 53RD Accusation!!! Oh wait….

  18. This message is 🆘️
    Iran's dictatorial regime has cut off the internet, the police have started killing people. People do not want the Islamic Republic. Please be the voice of our people.

  19. Depending on what type of info is being declassified there has to be involvement with the heads of the department , just because it's declassified it don't mean it is free to go with anyone …it's still property of the US…if it was a few documents maybe it was just a misunderstanding but it was 27 boxes of documents

  20. We can only hope that the Department of Justice and all Attorney Generals investigate the corruption in the people's government in Washington DC and State government with as much vigor as they have in going after Trump.
    O lease investigate;
    1.Congress insider trading scandal.
    2. The various banking scandal.
    3. Investigate the vanished saving account interest scandal.
    4. The big pharmaceutical scandal,
    5. The Critical Race Theory scandal.
    6. The Trump/ Russian collusion scandal.
    7. The Hillary Clinton Libya Embassy scandal.
    8. The Hillary Clinton missing 35 thousands email.
    9. The Federal Bureau of Investigation agent Comey.
    10. The Ukraine quid pro quo scandal.
    11. The Chuck Schumer threatening the Supreme Court Justices scandal.
    12. Vice president Harris refusal to uphold the Supreme Court rule of law in regard to Roe vs Wade scandal.
    13. The minimum wage scandal.

    Please show the people that no one is above the Law, nor even the media, the Congress. No one is above the law.

  22. That is an excuse to not indict. The common person, blue collar, would be indicted with far, far less objective proof such as documented evidence, subjective proof as in the known character of the person. Trump has gone this far with his crime, because he is white and loud.

  23. WHAT ABOUT HUNTER AND THE BIG GUY?
    INVESTIGATE THAT!

  24. Educated folk know that Republicans tend to be easily fooled and led by preachers and tyrants. Democrats tend to pity and mock Republicans as stupid, simple, weak minded tools of bible waving manipulators. However, they forget that all college freshmen are influenced and manipulated by the college culture, professors and dogma on campus. So intellectual PhDs have been molded and manipulated by the dogma of colleges which are overwhelmingly leftist. Critical thinking, being able to be honest and see the flaws and head games being played by both sides, is a step toward personal integrity.

  25. Remove the INSURRECTIONISTS

    Section 3 of the  Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution

  26. Well who could have guessed that 🤣🤣!

  27. Caylor Ellingson killed by unhinged liberals.All democrats do is incite violence.Self defence is a right.Use it.

  28. Talk about the 41 North Dakota man who admitted to murdering an 18 year old for being a "Republican Extremist" and was just let go! That is more important than some BS lawsuit we all know (or at least should know) will go nowhere, like always.

  29. Witch hunt led by witches.

  30. 🇺🇲🇺🇲 TRUMP20TOLIFE 🇺🇲🇺🇲

    SAVE AMERICA FROM CHUMP 232 SPANKED… AND HIS TERRORIST FAMILY

  32. Problem is – trump doesn’t understand period.

  34. They’re finally catching the witch
