I didn’t do this yesterday because I guess I was in a good mood and like Bongino, but he said two things that were utterly ridiculous. First he was trying to give an example of reckless disregard of protecting highly sensitive classified information and used as an example an agent in Russia who had Russian nuclear secrets and left them in his hotel room and they got stolen by Russia. There is absolutely no way an secret service agent could ever have that material in his hotel room unless he stole it. That’s just impossible. You can’t have that level of information in your hotel room period.
The second is that when comparing Trump and Hillary his side kick Jim said and she didn’t have declassification authority. Totally false. If you look up the executive orders controlling classification you will see that the president delegates to various cabinet officials and others classification authority and it always includes the Secretary of State. And then these individuals can delegate their authority down the line but Hillary was the top classification authority in the State Department. She could classify or declassify any documents solely in State. The difference between her and Trump is that she couldn’t declassify documents classified by other agencies. Trump could declassify anything because he was president.
