33. How do you know what those secret documents say?

Oh, right you don't. Neither do any pundits on TV. Neither do Laurence Tribe. Or Glenn Kirschner. Adam Schiff might, but he's not going to tell you.
You know why? Because they're "TOP SECRET".
Here's a little clue for you. When the words "TOP SECRET" are used, you aren't going to learn what is in them. Because random posters on the Internet don't get to find out what is in "TOP SECRET" files.
