Declassification order. again, speculative, but that's the behavior we've seen from donald trump. also, what's not said in this affidavit i think is very telling and there are three categories of people that investigators are clearly worried about. one is spies and the other is detectives and the other is whistle blowers. when i say spies and the doj justification says they don't want to reveal certain information because it could affect secret service operations and that tells me they're not only worried about the president's safety at mar-a-lago, but that there are security vulnerabilities t...

Patel reports this such reports are misleading and the president had declassified the materials at issue. you know how trump rolls. the tell that they seem to know that they're in some degree of trouble, even their weak defense hasn't been bolstered by any evidence that he did that, and there's this news no evidence at all and they didn't declassify anything. what can you tell us about donald trump's cavalier attitude about national security parties and cls fied materials? >> yeah, i mean, first, i've that's i believe and that's one of the things that they were looking for which is evidence of...
