In reply to the discussion: CNN Exclusive: Classified documents found at Pence's Indiana home [View all]wnylib
(21,797 posts)75. The fact that our enemies know this
is the worst part. Anyone from any country could get ahold of classified documents.
At the risk of getting into conspiracy theory territory, both the timing and the people involved raise questions in my mind. In Trump's mind, both Biden and Pence are top level enemies of his. But Trump has "friends in high places."
Considering how Trump operates and how these revelations affect the possibility of charges against him, I do wonder if there is a larger picture yet to come out.

That is good news! Especially given they were immediately turned over to The Feds.
