Irresponsible. there are significant differences in the case that need to be pointed out. >> first of all, you know, in the trump case, he has unfettered authority before he leaves office to declassify documents. joe biden as vice president question that he doesnt have that authority. go ahead. yeah, because this is important . so there is no set standard or procedure that a president needs to follow to declassify information. i know president trump was on the show. he made the comment. i could ...

Perspective that everybody said is correct. theres going to be nuances. ill tell you, the u.s. attorney in chicago is a very fair man. mr. lauch. and so i think we can trust his word. politically, theres not going to be seen as much of a difference because the only thing in this kind of era where theres all this information that hits you from different sides and we kind of get information overload, the only thing thats needed right now by the former president is to be able to throw doubt and say...

Once again, lawyers for president biden finding crlasse documents from serving in the obama administration in one of his private offices. they found the documents last november. the matter is now in the hands of the u.s. justice department which is investigating. joining us now live, republican congressman donaldson of florida. let me get your reaction to the breaking news. youre a member of congress. you deal with classified information. whats your reaction to this? >> oh, my reaction is pretty...

Then i asked him, are you concerned about donald trump having apparently more documents at mar-a-lago that were classified than joe biden had during his tenure as vice president at his private office. he went on to say democrats overplayed their hand on mar-a-lago. and he said its more important that you see this vice president after all these years still having these documents. he then walked onto the house floor. another member of the top republican member james comer who is going to chair the...

Ability to declassify information. so number one, what was he doing w classified information in his possession. number two, why did it take six years? i want to stress this for the american people. joe biden left the vice presidentsy in 2017. so its taken six years for these documents to surface. that is incredibly concerning. and point number three, the most important, everybody can go back to the hillary clinton e-mail saga. we know other presidents have had classified information, but why was...

Conversation that doesnt leak out. the ability to have a conversation, an honest airing of hurts and apologies on all sides including from him. from harry and meghan. and yet that seems entirely unlikely at this stage particularly because theres not any trust in that anybody has that that information would not be leaked out from what harry had told me. hes concerned that you know at times when he has tried to have private conversations with members of the royal family, those have been leaked and...

They have put atop this particular headline and to the congressmans point, i mean, there is nothing new about that tweet. that is the political version of the tweet and these are the people that are going to take this information, have subpoena pour and the gavel in the republican held house to do what they will with this. i think thats really the challenge for the biden folks. i have yet to start to reach out to my political sources on this as it was just breaking here as we came on the air, bu...
