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.

An audio recording from the summer of 2021 meeting in which former president Trump acknowledges he held onto a classified Pentagon document about a potential attack on Iran is in the hands of federal prosecutors. "On the recording, Trump's comments suggest he would like to share the information but he's aware of limitations on his ability post-presidency to declassify records..."

Gee, that kinda' undercuts his argument that he declassified everything.

The July 2021 meeting was held at Trump's golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, with two people working on the autobiography of Trump's former chief of staff Mark Meadows as well as aides employed by the former president, including communications specialist Margo Martin. The attendees, sources said, did not have security clearances that would allow them access to classified information.

Well, yeah, that sounds like Trump. If he'd share top secret information with Russians in the White House, why not writers in Bedminster?

Still waiting for the outrage from the republicans who demanded Clinton go straight to federal prison now that the evidence is pretty clear that what Trump has done with respect to top secret and classified documents is so obviously illegal.
