For importance I wanted to maintain more record of post than current page of media thread.
Forgive me taking too much space. Gosh this is important and awful. I lived with Watergate. This is so far beyond. Showing documents to others. Read types of information in documents. We can't even see unless they declassify some which maybe should to give public an idea. Of course probably a lot couldn't be declassified.
Trump Indictment Details 37 Criminal Counts And Instances Where He Showed Others Classified Documents
The court filing details numerous charges against the former president related to the more than 100 classified documents that were recovered from his Florida home last year.
It accuses Trump of breaking seven different laws, including 31 counts of willful retention of national defense information and single counts of false statements and representations, conspiracy to obstruct justice, withholding a document or record, corruptly concealing a document, concealing a document in a federal investigation and a scheme to conceal.
It says the information Trump took with him when he left the White House “included information regarding defense and weapons capabilities of both the U.S. and foreign countries; United States nuclear programs; potential vulnerabilities of the United States and its allies to military attack; and plans for a possible retaliation in response to a foreign attack.”
The documents originated with all of the top national security and law enforcement agencies of the U.S. government, including the CIA, the Department of Defense, the NSA, the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency, the National Reconnaissance Office, the Department of Energy and the Department of State and Bureau of Intelligence Research, according to the indictment.
It also says that “On two occasions in 2021, Trump showed classified documents to others.”
In one instance, Trump showed a writer, a publisher and two members of his staff who lacked security clearance a copy of a “plan of attack” that, according to a recording of Trump, he described as “highly confidential,” the indictment states.
In the second instance, Trump showed two members of his political action committee, neither of who had a security clearance, a “classified map related to a military operation,” the indictment alleges.
Both of those incidents occurred at Trump’s New Jersey golf club, which means the documents would have been transported there from Florida.
