Paper is still used, because paper can't be hacked. And in our highly connected, digital world, it's difficult to have a completely cut-off computer that is 100% not connected to anything. A binder of papers in a secure location under lock and key can only be accessed physically. A computer can be hacked from anywhere on the globe.
files can be classified up to 75 years. Even longer if it is designated as classified after that expires.
hmmm, wonder where those documents went. Hutchinson alleges Meadows’s suits smelled ‘like a bonfire’ from burning documents | The Hill Former Trump White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson says in a new book that former chief of staff Mark Meadows’s suits smelled “like a bonfire” from burning documents so often after the 2020 election. Hutchinson wrote in her new book that Meadows wanted a fire burning in his office every morning starting mid-December of 2020. She added that when she would bring him a package or lunch, she “would sometimes find him leaning over the fire, feeding papers into it, watching to make sure they burned.” Top Trump aide burned so many papers wife noticed ‘bonfire’ smell, book says Mark Meadows burned so many papers in his office fireplace as Donald Trump’s presidency came to its chaotic end that the then White House chief of staff’s wife complained about the cost of dry-cleaning his suits to remove the “bonfire” smell, Cassidy Hutchinson writes in her eagerly awaited memoir. The New York Times reported the passage about Meadows burning documents, before MSNBC confirmed it.
The binder was last seen at the White House during Trump’s final days in office. Shame on the Biden administration for losing it.
Perhaps the answers are in the article I could not read/paywall. Someone cites "... a sudden loss of a significant number of assets..." Okay, what is "sudden" - when and what happened? What is "significant"? How many? Context: do we typically lose 5-7 assets per year? 20? 100? More? The line sounds ominous and I want to know what the numbers are, if provided. Does someone who has access to the article care to share? Thanks!
