Who had classified folders for blocking light on their 'Trump's an Idiot' BINGO card?
Trump Used ‘Classified’ Folder as a Lamp Shade, Lawyer Says (msn.com)
Donald Trump’s creativity knows no bounds when it comes to documents. He’s torn them up and scattered them. He’s tried to flush them down the toilet. He’s absconded from the White House with hundreds of classified ones, setting off a Justice Department investigation that is still ongoing months after the FBI raided Mar-a-Lago last August. Trump attorney Timothy Parlatore that the former president had been using one particular item of interest to the DOJ as a lamp shade.
“He has one of those landline telephones next to his bed, and it has a blue light on it, and it keeps him up at night. So he took the manilla folder and put it over so it would keep the light down so he could sleep at night,” Parlatore said. “It’s just this folder. It says ‘Classified Evening Summary’ on it. It’s not a classification marking. It’s not anything that is controlled in any way. There is nothing illegal about it.”
