The seized documents (lots of 'top secret' listed) -- (link) - decline Aug 12, 13:04 11
- The fact something is labeled "TS/SCI" shows knowing intent to remove government secret docs. Thats a credible no-no. -- nm* - budice Aug 12, 13:13
- 2A! per wikipedia: "SCI must be only processed, stored, used or discussed in a sensitive compartmented information facility." -- (link) - Max Aug 12, 13:12

- Many leatherbound boxes... -- nm - Butters Aug 12, 13:07
- Miscellaneous, like secret tapas. "I want a little nukes, and some terrorism, aaand a little cybercrime -ooh, satellites." -- nm - Max Aug 12, 13:07
- I would like to seize Kaitlan's documents. -- nm - Jovian Aug 12, 13:05

- Yup. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 12, 13:02
Fisheries and Oceans Canada says 280,000 salmon counted above the 2019 slide site north of Lillooet, contrasting greatly from three years ago .. -- (link) - mud Aug 12, 12:54
So I'm guessing this stuff came from the Jan 6th comittee? -- nm - eag Aug 12, 12:50 1
- By all accounts this is a separate cock up. -- nm - Reagen Aug 12, 12:51
‘Love, Death and Robots’ renewed at Netflix for a 4th season -- nm - Beaker Aug 12, 12:43 1

"He didn't pack his boxes from the White House. So, he couldn't have known what was in them." - David Aug 12, 12:40 14
- So where were these documents kept in the WH that they could so easily be mistaken for his personal papers? -- nm - Meg Aug 12, 12:55

- "In prison, he'll be the Pie" -- nm - budice Aug 12, 12:49
- The Alex Jones Defense -- nm - Beryllium Aug 12, 12:47 4
  - Speaking of Alex Jones, I don't know that it was posted here. After that debacle, it didn't take the jury long to decide on a judgement. - Mop Aug 12, 12:50 3
    - Follow up from LegalEagle: the cap on damages is a tiny fraction of that. -- nm - Max Aug 12, 12:51
    - It was posted here, IIRC. Also, Legal Eagle suggests that due to cap limits it could be reduced to under a million. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 12, 12:51 1
      - But the other cases are in CT I believe where he won't get that beneficial treatment. -- nm - pmb Aug 12, 12:53
- No officer, these pants I'm wearing are NOT my pants. -- nm - Strongbad Aug 12, 12:47
- So when he was asked - repeatedly and politely to return the documents - he couldn't help. He doesn't soil his hands with that business. -- nm - Mop Aug 12, 12:45
- That duffel bag full of guns and drugs in my car trunk isn't mine, officer. -- nm* - Max Aug 12, 12:44

      - It seems slow but it would take me 32 minutes to charge to 80%. I only need to charge to 50% to arrive with 20% charge. That's barely - oblique Aug 12, 12:27
    - we have so little level 3 charging here. basically one EA station and then nothing for days. - amanda Aug 12, 11:32 1
      - Looks like I probably will want to get the EA Pass+ even for this one trip. It is $4 for the month. Saves 0.13/kwh. Looks like I will either use - oblique Aug 12, 12:30
- Neat! -- nm - Beryllium Aug 12, 11:15
