The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

boater: Indeed, highly classified material was also found on Weiners [sic] personal home computer.

Nope, nothing marked classified.

boater: All of Hillary's/Weiners materials were on a data network subject to hacking, unlike the paper documents stored in Mar a Lago.

Umm, what network isn't hackable?

No doubt you're as bothered by Ivanka and Jared (well, plus a bunch of other folks in the Trump administration) conducting official White House business through their personal, very hackable, email.

And thank God no one carries a device in their pockets that would enable them to quickly snap photographs of documents lying around the toilet or on the ballroom stage and instantly load them to a documents cloud.

And you do realize that more people wandered through Mar-a-Lago -- tens of thousands of members and guests who visited the "active social club" between the end of Trump’s presidency in January 2021 and August 2022.

And did you forget that Trump had been subpoenaed, claimed he had returned all of the documents, but actually retained a few dozen more and entered into a conspiracy to shield them from the government?

boater: Aso [sic], Presidents have traditionally had the ability to have sensitive documents after they leave office...

No, they cannot have "sensitive" documents, especially not national defense information with Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI) and Special Access Program (SAP) markings.

And enlighten me: which presidents can show those top secret documents to ghostwriters and other idiots (like Trump did)?
