For those who are awake… you already know. 😎
For those who are asleep, loathe, hate or “Dump Trump”…
Clearly just can’t see it, don’t want to hear it, or cannot handle truth.
“Joe doesn’t” = Present tense.
He’s not saying “Joe didn’t” meaning as VP or Senator.
He’s saying “Joe doesn’t” as “President.”
If Joe Biden was President due to 1 & 3, he could invoke Executive Privilege, you know… the privilege of the Executive Branch, to squash all of the Documents chatter… because like it or not, President’s CAN hold certain documents.
Why hasn’t he? Because he isn’t. Multiple Laws and Orders prove this, but especially War Powers Resolution.
And how come MSM reported DJT did invoke Executive Privilege in 2021, if I don’t know what I know? 🤭
It’s literally right in front of everyone. 💯 All part of the Operation and Plan 🇺🇸
I agree. I was reading the EO's as they were being posted, and it was clear there was/is a plan in place.
Too many people lose faith and give up hope, especially when they face adversity. But, that is when you push back harder.
This doesn't make much sense
Aren't some of the Docs Biden has from his time in the Senate? And thus executive privilege and the PRA wouldn't apply.
Also there is no Presidential Records Act from 1973
There's a law from 1974. But it only applied to Nixon Presidential Recordings and Materials Preservation Act (PRMPA) of 1974.
Then in 1978 they passed the full Presidential Records Act.
Only while President. And even when a President is President, they should handle classified material appropriately.
Executive Order 13489 explicitly says this
There are many problems to his idea of invoking Executive Privilege.
A claim of executive privilege by a former president must be upheld by the current president. If Trump makes a claim of executive privilege, the Decider is Joe Biden.
EP has nothing whatsover to do with a former president getting to keep records. Zero. The whole process described in Executive Order 13489 is about records kept BY NARA.
A. Someone requests a record from NARA B. The former president whose term the record is from gets notified by NARA, we are going to release this record. Do you want to claim EP. C. If the former president claims EP, then D. The current president makes the decision they are going to uphold this claim of executive privilege.
The enter time the document is in the National Archives.
As pResident of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA 👈 (The Corporation) Joe is very limited and can only influence the "business".
President Trump is still the Commander in Chief and CAN influence the Presidential Records especially if he already declassified them.
The Presidential Records Act (PRA) of 1973 changed the legal status of presidential records. The PRA states that the United States owns the official records of the President and their staff. This changed the long-standing tradition of treating presidential records as the personal property of the President. The PRA also established a new structure for how presidents and the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) manage presidential records.
The PRA allows the public to access presidential records through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). The public can access records five years after the end of an administration. However, the president can restrict access to certain information for up to 12 years after leaving office. The president can invoke up to six specific restrictions.
The Presidential Records Act (PRA) was amended in 2014 by the Presidential and Federal Records Act Amendments of 2014. The amendments established new provisions, including:
The president and White House employees are prohibited from using personal email accounts to circumvent the PRA.
The president can transfer physical custody of their permanent electronic records to the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA).
The Archivist is prohibited from making original presidential records available to anyone convicted of a crime related to the records.
The PRA was signed into law by President Barack Obama on November 26, 2014. The PRA establishes public ownership of all presidential records and defines the term "presidential records". The PRA allows the public to access presidential records five years after the end of an administration. The president can restrict access to certain information for up to 12 years after leaving office.
The president and White House employees are prohibited from using personal email accounts to circumvent the PRA.
Did Barry sign the PRA into law as he was simultaneously breaking it?
can you link to this a 1973 law? Because what you describe here is the 1978 law.
