Posted by Fred G on Sat Jun 10 09:37:13 2023, in response to Re: Federal indictment, posted by Fisk Ave Jim on Fri Jun 9 23:51:16 2023. There’s a lot of misunderstanding about the presidential records act🚨 Presidential Records Act (PRA) of 1978. President Trump is not covered under PRA. -The Presidential Records Act (PRA) of 1978, 44 U.S.C. ß2201-2209, governs the official records of Presidents and Vice Presidents that were created or received after January 20, 1981 (i.e., beginning with the Reagan Administration). The PRA changed the legal ownership of the official records of the President from private to public, and established a new statutory structure under which Presidents, and subsequently NARA, must manage the records of their Administrations. The PRA was amended in 2014, which established several new provisions. Specifically, the PRA: -Establishes public ownership of all Presidential records and defines the term Presidential records. -Requires that Vice-Presidential records be treated in the same way as Presidential records. -Places the responsibility for the custody and management of incumbent Presidential records with the President. -Requires that the President and his staff take all practical steps to file personal records separately from Presidential records. -Allows the incumbent President to dispose of records that no longer have administrative, historical, informational, or evidentiary value, once the views of the Archivist of the United States on the proposed disposal have been obtained in writing. -Establishes in law that any incumbent Presidential records (whether textual or electronic) held on courtesy storage by the Archivist remain in the exclusive legal custody of the President and that any request or order for access to such records must be made to the President, not NARA. -Establishes that Presidential records automatically transfer into the legal custody of the Archivist as soon as the President leaves office. -Establishes a process by which the President may restrict and the public may obtain access to these records after the President leaves office; specifically, the PRA allows for public access to Presidential records through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) beginning five years after the end of the Administration, but allows the President to invoke as many as six specific restrictions to public access for up to twelve years. -Codifies the process by which former and incumbent Presidents conduct reviews for executive privilege prior to public release of records by NARA (which had formerly been governed by Executive order 13489). -Establishes procedures for Congress, courts, and subsequent Administrations to obtain “special access” to records from NARA that remain closed to the public, following a privilege review period by the former and incumbent Presidents; the procedures governing such special access requests continue to be governed by the relevant provisions of E.O. 13489. -Establishes preservation requirements for official business conducted using non-official electronic messaging accounts: any individual creating Presidential records must not use non-official electronic messaging accounts unless that individual copies an official account as the message is created or forwards a complete copy of the record to an official messaging account. (A similar provision in the Federal Records Act applies to federal agencies.) -Prevents an individual who has been convicted of a crime related to the review, retention, removal, or destruction of records from being given access to any original records. |

Then there’s Trump’s revising section 702 of the FISA Amendments Act, part of which included a change to 18 U.S. Code §1924 regarding removing and retaining classified information. He pushed for this to weaponize* government against Hillary Clinton, but it might come back to bite him in the ass now.* popular word |

He allowed people who had no security clearance to see and handle…No,he did NOT. He didn't even realize he had the papers. When they came to light, he INVITED the FBI to come to his homes and offices to make sure there wasn’t anything that got missed. Same with VP Pence. He has been exonerated. The political thing I see in this is that President Biden has not. As to TFG, apparently he’s been bandying them about his clubs, hiding them and refusing to honor the subpoenas demanding their return. |

If he did something illegal, it was the same things Obama, Clinton, and Biden did. 3. If he's charged with much more serious offenses than anything those people have done, let's see him get convicted before we take it seriously. 4. If he gets convicted, of course he has the right to see through an appeal before we take it seriously. 5. If he gets pardoned by a future Republican President, that's only right because it will help the country heal. 6. If he gets re-elected President, Smith works for him and so of course he has the right to fire Smith and disband the entire investigation. |

Acceptance of a pardon is an admission of guilt. They’re all saying that they believe Trump is guilty. If Trump were innocent, it would be in the president’s power to ensure that he not be railroaded.The candidates all know that Trump is guilty, but the voters they’re trying to appeal to are too stupid to know what a pardon is. |

I remember all the hard line Republicans were lined up behind Nixon, saying that he's getting railroaded by the "pinko" press (the term used then by Nixon lovers) and he will get by with this. But when Rep.hard liner hawk Goldwater bailed, all of the Rep establishment followed and Nixon was on his own. At that point he had no choice to resign or get thrown out of office. Point being the same thing can happen to Trump as in with his Republican supporters. If that happens, all the MAGA voters will line up solidly behind DeSantis |

You really don’t understand what that phrase means and how it’s applied. It’s what’s called a “legal fiction.” It only means that the burden of proof at trial is on the prosecution alone. It doesn’t mean that the accused is magically innocent of a crime he actually committed until the minute that the jury verdict comes down.And again, accepting a pardon, whether before or after conviction, is an admission of guilty. A person is thus “proven guilty” by accepting a pardon. |
