Some of the White House documents that Donald Trump improperly took to his Mar-a-Lago residence were clearly marked as classified, including documents at the “top secret” level, according to two people familiar with the matter.

The existence of clearly marked classified documents in the trove — which has not previously been reported — is likely to intensify the legal pressure that Trump or his staffers could face, and raises new questions about why the materials were taken out of the White House.

While it was unclear how many classified documents were among those received by the Archives, some bore markings that the information was extremely sensitive — sometimes colloquially referred to as being “above top secret" — and would be limited to a small group of officials with authority to view such highly classified information, the two people familiar with the matter said.

The markings were discovered by the National Archives and Records Administration, which last month arranged for the collection of 15 boxes of documents from Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence. Archives officials asked the Justice Department to look into the matter, though as of Thursday afternoon, FBI agents had yet to review the materials, according to two people familiar with the request.

1. Let's see if there is as much outrage that our illustrious press had with Hillary, if they have the

same outrage with what trump did

[Cha]

21. Hi.. was this part of the

Reveal of Docs that the SCOTUS ruled was available for Access.. that TFCG wanted Hidden?

TY

2. He can't fathom that the world doesn't revolve around him.

If he so chooses it, it is so.

The best summary of his disastrous Presidency is:
He never respected the office and never understood its power.

7. Trump is sure that he can get away with destroying records..

Just like he is sure he can get away with everything else. Donald Trump is much too stupid
to know that he cannot get away..."With everything else"..

...That is who he is. And that is who he will always be. And he will pay the big price. But that will take time, because
proof is extremely important. Total proof takes time. Trump didn't know that he could not throw away documents he
had taken from the Oval Office. He thought they were his to throw away. (not someone else's documents..like the
government of the United States).

[PSPS]

8. All indications are that he will "get away with" everything. They'll all skate.

[Stuart G]

10. No THEY WON'T SKATE...obviously you are too young to know the Nixon-Watergate Story...

....Look it up.........They all ...DIDN'T SKATE

[PSPS]

11. To paraphrase Mortimer Duke, "I'll bet you $1 that they'll all skate!" (underlings excluded)

[underpants]

15. Yeah they probably will

You have to piss off rich people like Enron or Madoff levels to do time.

Trump is trash in history. Fluke win - complete failure. That’s it.

[Poiuyt]

16. Well I'm old enough to remember Watergate and I can assure you that Washington is considerably

different now. I hope I'm wrong, but my feeling is that they will all skate too. Garland very easily have gone after Trump for all the occurrences of obstruction of Justice that Robert Mueller itemized. He wouldn't have had to investigate further. I just don't think Garland wants the headaches that would come with indicting this gang. Either that or he's gotten a directive from Biden to avoid prosecuting the previous administration.

[Stuart G]

17. Here is why..Nobody Will Skate..one person..----JOE BIDEN --Won't let them ..SKATE..

....JOE IS THE BOSS...I don't think he will let them.....as you say.............'SKATE".......

JOE has been around a very long time...I do not think Joe will let them ..."SKATE"..and he is the boss & he will decide
the outcome of this show. About indicting & going for conviction of this one & that one...iF Garland is going to let them
..."skate"...My guess is Joe will get someone else..

DO YOU THINK JOE WILL LET THEM.........SKATE?

19. He did know. He said as much when Pelosi tore his speech.

[Stuart G]

22. Classified Records are not the same as Pelosi's Speech.....But ."..TIME WILL TELL.."

[lagomorph777]

24. Yeah, mishandling/stealing classified bumps it up to a whole 'nother level.

As he said to Hillary about her (actually unclassified) emails.

[Irish_Dem]

3. Sociopath POTUS was on an unprecedented crime spree.

He had access to everything and probably took as much as he could.
Knowing the US does not prosecute former presidents for their crimes.

[brer cat]

4. I wonder how many documents he has sold?

He and Jared believe in making money rather than serving the public.

[Nevilledog]

6. Next auction: Melania's pre-kidney surgery bra and box of top secret documents.

[brer cat]

9. LOL

[lagomorph777]

20. Yep - missile plans to Pyongyang (with love) and NSA passwords to Moscow.

[Thunderbeast]

5. He probably has a flunky in the basement

Scanning and sending to Moscow.

The man IS a foreign agent and traitor.

[Botany]

13. Come on don't you think it was just random chance that right after TFG fired our top level cyber...

... security people that we had major breaches into our governmental and business cyber networks?

[Botany]

12. Such as the PDB that Kushner gave to Saudi Prince Mohammed bin Salman that told him ...

... about Khashoggi and where to find him.

[CanonRay]

14. I'm sure Mar-a-Shitole

doubles as a top secret storage facility

[lagomorph777]

18. I wonder how many have already been shipped to Moscow or Pyongyang?
