CNN has exclusively obtained the audio recording of the 2021 meeting in Bedminster, New Jersey, where President Donald Trump discusses holding secret documents he did not declassify.

    Remember that every time you read a comment online saying Biden and Trump are the same, you’re looking at a pro-Trump psyop.

      This is a tape already known to be part of the prosecution’s evidence as far as I know.

        Jack Smith’s ace in the hole. Note that he didn’t file charges about this specific dissemination - that way if Judge Loose Cannon causes too many problems, he can file these charges in New Jersey, out of her reach.

    It’s so completely clear from the audio that he knows he’s sharing classified information and that he no longer has the power to declassify it - there’s no doubt whatever - but there will still be a giant number of people will say he’s innocent.

      That’s the good shit.
      When reading the post I thought it’s one of those “We got the tapes/videos/mails, but won’t upload them, but we got them and they are important, believe us” things.

    I’m sure the guy getting the cokes has a security clearance, not a US one, but a security clearance is a security clearance, right?
