Oh yeah, I remember that atcth beginning of all that. The DOJ told Trump to give back all the documents he took with him. He actually lied to his lawyers to get them to dertify that he had given them all back.
Imo, that’s a reasonable measure. While you or I wouldn’t have any need to take a classified document home with us, both Pence and Biden had to give documents back from their home. I guess as executives, it happens.
Trump, though, is a trophy hoarder, so he refused to give them up.
The difference is I don’t even think Pence and Biden were handling those documents themselves, they were staffers with clearances. I hate the “everybody does it” nonsense that has came out of this, but the silver lining is this drama has caused the US to reevaluate how they handle classified material.

I honestly don’t understand why there paper copies of any of this.
If it’s classified shouldn’t it be a 100% digital record with DRM like protections on it ?
