      Here we go. Trump will be back to selling classified documents in no time. No surprise his personal lawyer now runs the DOJ and this statement comes out.

      apparently so is investigating presidents that rape children and traffic them to other rapists for decades.

      I’m sorry…what?

      Yes, Congress passed the legislation, but it was signed into law by President Jimmy Carter. That’s how this shit works.

      Important note: set your face to stunned. 

      The presidential records act is the reason republicans said Hillary’s Emails were bad.

      So the Trump administration committed crimes related to the Presidential Records Act. Quite the tell by the Trump administration appointees heading the Justice department.

      That’s not for them to decide. The Supreme Court decides.

      But now, what will happen is that POTUS shreds a bunch of docs, someone files a lawsuit, it makes it to the USSC, then the USSC says they can’t shred the docs and the law actually is constitutional. And nobody will face any consequences.

      It will soon be renamed to the Department of Injustice, to match the renaming of the Department of Defense. Trump lawyers will openly argue that the Constitution is unconstitutional.

      The depth of the DOJ’s bullshit is truly mind boggling. They seem to be grasping at straws in trying to deflect from the Trump-Epstein files.

      They are certainly entitled to their opinion. They will be proven wrong, but they are entitled to their opinion

      I think their main gripe may not be classified information, but his phone. Legally those records aren’t his and need to be documented. They are also a confession to many crimes he’s probably done.

      Great. This probably means they haven’t been keeping track of anything.

      The Justice Department doesn’t get to say what’s constitutional or not, and Trump still stole classified documents in 2021.

      Doesn’t matter what the DOJ thinks. Constitutionality is determined by the SCOUS.

      How many documents are they going to destroy with zero consequences before a court rules on this?

    23. whereismymind86 on

      The justice department doesn’t get to decide what is and is not constitutional. They can go to a judge about that, but their opinion is irrelevant

      Their job is to enforce the law. Congress makes the laws and the Judicial interprets the law, the DOJ does neither.

      The DOJ doesn’t get to make that call. Since when does the Department of Justice think it’s the Supreme Court?

      Also, why the *fuck* does anyone believe the *Department of Justice* should have a say over whether the *Presidential Records Act* is constitutional? It looks like a cover-up, because it’s a cover-up. They’re trying to burn all the records to do with the Iran war and Putin’s direction in real time, huh?
