What I don't understand is how Senators have ANY power to block a Presidential declassification order. Senator Cotton somehow blocking the JFK files release and Senator Blumenthal blocking the Epstein files release? What in the world gives any Senators the power to stop a Presidential order?? I don't get it.
I meant 'legally' speaking (i.e., What legal authority would/does a Senator have to prevent/block a release of Presidential-ordered declassified files)? I don't think the Senate 'owns'/possesses these files, nor would the publishing of these files require the Senate's 'blessing' either, right? My understanding is that POTUS has the authority to declassify and publish whatever the hell he wants. Am I wrong on that?
The files that we've been repeatedly promised (Epstein info, JFK, RFK, MLK, etc.) would be published by a Cabinet member appointed by POTUS at the direction of POTUS, right? So those people would be the likes of Kash Patel (FBI), Pam Bondi (AG), Tulsi Gabbard (DNI), John Ratcliffe (CIA), etc. There aren't any of these documents I know of that would be getting published by the Senate body or individual Senate member. So this makes zero sense to me re: a Senator "blocking" the release of any declassified files ordered by POTUS.
So are you suggesting that one (or more) of POTUS Trump's Cabinet members who's supposed to publish (allegedly) declassified files is compromised then? If so, which Cabinet member(s) do you suspect are compromised? I've never liked or trusted Bondi, so the Epstein files release (a.k.a. ongoing fiasco) doesn't surprise me one bit. Curious to hear your thoughts. Thanks in advance!

Blackmail or connections to the intel community which Trump either hasn't removed yet or isn't aware of yet.
To be honest I've never fully trusted Cotton. He's a good congressional orator, I'll give him that.
