Frankly, if anyone from any White House tries to claim they don't have some classified material in their possessions I would be inclined to think they are hiding something, as apparently it's common for classified material to walk (or be boxed) out of the White House.

There has to be several better ways to maintain the security of our classified documents than whatever it is the government is currently doing.
Yes, apparently the rapid "pack everything in cardboard boxes and let's vacate this place" before and during the transition at the White House is not getting it done. You'd think unpaid interns and other folks would be careful with jobs like this they likely have no training in. :coffee:

All classified reports should be written in crayon to match the maturity of the politicians who can't seem to keep them secure.

I’m just trying to keep track of who is acceptable these days.

Musk, Greenwald, Taibbi, Snowden…

Pretty much, but I think you're more likely to find lefties believing serious journalists when they're critical of the left than righties believing them when they're critical of the right

Nice disclaimer. Are you going to argue that Greenwald and Taibbi aren't serious journalists? kalm doesn't seem to be inclined to give their current reporting much credence

If they’re wrong about a topic, they’re wrong. It’s called post partisanism.

If the lefty echo chamber tells me they’re wrong about a topic, they’re wrong. It’s called post partisanism.

Being wrong about a topic is call post partisanism. Good to know.

Being skeptical of a source you’ve trusted is called critical thinking. I follow Greenwald and read it without any help from the echo chamber. Are you familiar with Greenwald’s
turn? He sounds more like Steven Crowder these days and on nearly every topic than his former self.

Sad.

Why would I do that? :?

Just because they're serious doesn't mean they're always right. Right?

So he's the left's version of Ron Filipkowski and the Lincoln Project?

I don't think I've kept current with Greenwald. I do tend to believe journalists who are skeptical of the extremes of both parties more than the ones that try to sugarcoat the antics of the party they support or have an axe to grind with their old party.

Another thing- Trumps lawyers were blocked from witnesses the FBI search of Mar-A-Lago. Biden’s FBI had Bidens lawyers present during the whole search.

Thats the difference between cooperating with the requests and spending a year evading them. You see how that works? Like how the cop that pulled you over responds differently depending on whether you show him your registration and insurance without hassle or tell him to go fuck himself?

He's the former Conk who has changed his stripes and now has nothing good to say about the Republican party. You like to post his tweets as proof of I'm not sure what because he's a bitter old blowhard and that's coming from someone who shares his dislike for trump. The irony of you promoting Filipkowski while dismissing Taibbi is very rich.

According to a new report from CNN, of all places, Biden wasn’t originally willing to consent to have the Justice Department search his home and only agreed to it after Justice Department indicated it would seek a warrant if necessary

Since we can't indict a sitting president we might as well focus on Trump until Biden leaves office. Then put them in adjacent cells :rofl:
