The analysis I want to see is whether we can tell from the shadow if it's trump taking the picture




The President just released a load of classified information for the purpose of dragging Iran. That’s it. That’s the whole purpose. Oh, and this.

I am seeing the usual “The President can declassify anything he wants.” That’s correct only in the sense that if he were brought up on the charge of endangering the national security, he could make a case based on the regulations that, since he is the ultimate authority on classification. However, since the purpose of classification has to do with national security, other presidents have conferred with national security personnel on the implications of releasing information before declassifying it. There’s also a paper trail to be filled out. Anyone want to bet that wasn’t done?
