Cassidy Hutchinson says she thinks Mark Meadows took them. To me the two suspects so far.

Sounds like the sort of document Trump would quickly hand over to Russia, so they can examine it, determine our source and methods, and better prepare for the next campaign.

Hard to say if the orange monkey has it. He personally couldn’t have went to take the binder from the safe. And as much Meadows and others have done under the word of a dictator, they aren’t committing treason by stealing the documents for him. The culprit has it themselves. Their nest egg after leaving the administration.

I'm sure George Bush would have found a way to render the whereabouts of the binders out of Trump and Meadows in Guantanamo Bay along with a quarter ton of lard.

FBI should investigate, but they are too busy with taxes Hunter repaid 3 years ago.

If you guys aren’t familiar with this story I’ll give you a little recap:

In the final weeks of the Trump presidency (I believe it was after 1/6) trump had a 10” binder of secrets that had a lot of different info on Russia in it including sources and methods. Trump sought to declassify it and had planned on sharing it with other republicans and a right wing journalist. Before it could be distributed it had to be redacted by various agencies. I believe the redacted version was copied several times. However the original book went missing and has been missing since. We know all of this because of reporting, tell all books, and a freedom of information request along with a lawsuit (I believe by the right wing journalist who said the info belonged to him because trump gave it to him).

I believe the reason the republicans wanted this book to be made public was because they thought it disproved Russians collusion with the trump campaign. My understanding is that it actually did the opposite but republicans are fucking dumb so…
