    Have you heard of classified docs at MAL? Who placed them there? If you truly have zero concern for US secure documents, simply don't respond. I do and feel that the protocols have been created for valid reasons. The felon is bypassing those protocols.

    Apparently none of that matters any more. Do not question the orange emperor.

    And that’s crazy lib being crazy lib again. Can’t win the argument so just call people names. It’s what we’re all used to from your ilk. It’s not going to change, so all there is to do is point it out and laugh. Appropriate that your moniker is Chevy Chase. He had a great career portraying silliness like this. I guess Fletch really Lives.

    So when you call people names, that is your admission that you can't win an argument? I'll keep that in mind.

    Was Trump convicted of a crime for that incident? Was Biden or Clinton? I do not see how referring to Trump’s conviction as a felon for a state crime, has to do with the executive branch’s process for granting clearances.

    You would be wise to listen to @vaxcardinal on this topic and just wait for more information to come out. He has extensive knowledge of the process and the how and the why it was put in place.

    After repeated requests, both you and the wise Vax have refused to enlighten us with this extensive knowledge as to how the felon's bypassing of protocols benefits the US interests. Your focus on the felon's state crimes does nothing to absolve his other indictments does it?

    Maybe it's just me but I think providing access to the nation's most secure documents to persons who obviously shouldn't have access to those documents is much more significant than whether a visitor to the White House had cocaine. While neither is acceptable the former represents a threat to national security, the latter does not.

    And we have explained to you that no one really knows what is gong on at this point. All you have is a couple articles claiming certain things and it has not been verified by anyone with actual knowledge of what is happening with the process. This is likely a speed up of granting of Interim Secret, and in some cases Interim TS clearances, to allow members of the Trump team to start working. Even if someone ends up being adjudicated to no being able to have a TS or Secret, they are still legally bound to not disclose any classified information that they have had access to. So until we actually find out what is going on, let's wait before freaking out about this.

    So basically your hope is that the felon's incompetence and failure to in a timely fashion put his team into place for a SECOND term.... might not cause too many problems. Yeah, why worry about that stuff.
