It must be really bad, then. Pity if someone leaked it! That’s what the Dems would do.

Navarro claimed executive privilege.

That got a lot of respect   --NOT!

Peter Navarro was quickly sentenced to prison, where he sits now.

Law enforcement files need to be protected but HIGHLY CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS NEXT TO A CORVETTE IN A GARAGE ACCESSED BY HUNTER AND HIS CHINESE FRIENDS are FAIR GAME, man!!!

Leaking the transcript likely waived executive privilege.

What nonsense!

Biden is as innocent as the whitest little lamb.

No prosecution of Biden is planned or even under consideration. Am I not right about that?

I am pretty sure there are specialized AIs that would easily make one.

Don’t we have the transcripts ?

checking

I remember this, and doing voice only is so much easier

Congress does however need to know to what extent former Presidents need to retain documents, most especially given a former President is being criminally charged with alleged improper document retention.

Trump’s executive privilege needs to be considered too, and most carefully.

For starters he surely talked at length about a dozen his relatives having been eaten by cannibals.

There’s absolutely no proof that the transcripts are an accurate and complete account of what was said. I’d wager that that’s the main reason.

There’s an old expression from the Watergate Era which apples here: “It’s not the crime, it’s the coverup!”

Altered transcripts. Good lawyers never ask for something they don’t already know. A matter of time now. Rosemary Woods moment in time.

His invitation to debate Trump on CNN is cut in 6 pieces to make a short vid.

6 pieces. Cannot string a 10 word sentence together.

Tax filings also need to be protected, but congress got them anyway.

but it would be interesting to do what was in the “transcript”.

I still don’t think it should include video, cause the resulting manure storm and legislation would be like nothing we have ever seen.

Except for the ‘Antisemitism Awareness Act’ of course of course
