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.

'Loads' is not equal to 'a small number'.

They didn't quantify it, so you're not allowed to dismiss it.

Evidently, no where else. But we'll see what the special counsel turns up.

Uh, huh. So at least you're capable of admitting to be wrong. In an oblique sort of way.

Progress!

But you failed to address my point: INTENT.

Because you don't have one. I posted ad nauseam about his over on the Fool. Allow me repost this
law.cornell.edu: 18 U.S. Code § 1924 - Unauthorized removal and retention of classified documents or material | U.S. Code | US Law.

(a)Whoever, being an officer, employee, contractor, or consultant of the United States, and, by virtue of his office, employment, position, or contract, becomes possessed of documents or materials containing classified information of the United States, knowingly removes such documents or materials without authority and with the intent to retain such documents or materials at an unauthorized location shall be fined under this title or imprisoned for not more than five years, or both.

Maintaining a server in your closet constitutes plenty of intent. Comey invented some stuff out of thin air to avoid arresting Hillary! and offending the future funders of his book (and thus, his retirement plan).

And your quote about Comey is patently ridiculous: anyone who has had 5 minutes of training in that area knows you're not allowed to remove certain items from the SCIF. That's another point that gets memory-holed.

I've repeatedly said that anyone who commits a crime should be prosecuted if there's evidence to support charges

And yet you only opine in one direction, while accusing others of doing what you're already doing. There's a word for that.
