Why the realDonaldTrump-JoeBiden classified documents aren't 'apples and oranges' Commentary from TomRTweets:
Had the National Security Agency or a closely allied counterpart service intruded into Iranian military networks and gained near real-time access to military orders, the ensuing intelligence reports would be classified with one or more Top Secret-Sensitive Compartmented Information control caveats . The U.S. wouldn't want unauthorized persons to know that it knew, and how it knew, what Iranian forces were about to do.
These three examples underline why the U.S. has laws governing the strict control over, access to, and handling of classified materials. The apex of these restrictions pertains to TS-SCI intelligence material. We now know that both Trump and Biden retained such material without authorization. The government's top priority is thus to find out what risks to national security have been incurred by prospective unauthorized access to that material.
McQuade has an upcoming book on how disinformation is"sabotaging American democracy." Unfortunately, however, McQuade was happy to offer her own disinformation to MSNBC on Monday. She stated that"I think there really are apples and oranges instances, this is a handful of documents that appear to have inadvertently been left behind.
Numerous news stories over the past 24 hours have also stretched their reports to play down the basic SCI-classified link between the Biden and Trump documents. This creative flexibility has then been used by Biden supporters to defend his position. Take Harvard law professor Laurence Tribe's confident declaration that"the situations aren't remotely comparable.
