1) Reminder: As President, @realDonaldTrump has absolute power of declassification - deriving from Article II power:
law.cornell.edu/constitution/a…
2) Executive Order 13526 governs the use of Classified National Security Information and directly notes powers of president:

"authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America"
archives.gov/isoo/policy-do…
3) SC - Navy v Egan

"His authority to classify and control access to information bearing on national security...flows primarily from this constitutional investment of power in the President and exists quite apart from any explicit congressional grant."

4) A president does not require a security clearance and can declassify at will.

It CAN be politically difficult to do so. But not legally.

Nobody in government - or elsewhere - has any "veto" over this presidential power.
5) I'm not saying President Trump should - or should not - declassify anything.

But I am saying he can. Will be interesting to see what he chooses.

And why.

1) Firm That Conducted ‘Audit’ of Georgia Voting Machines Has Long History With Dominion Voting Systems
theepochtimes.com/firm-that-cond…
2) The firm hired by Georgia’s SoS to conduct an “audit” of Dominion Voting Systems technology used during the 2020 elections is the same one that previously certified the Dominion systems and also approved a last-minute system-wide software change just weeks before the election.
3) Dominion had used technical conclusions from Pro V&V in a pre-election Georgia lawsuit that questioned the reliability of Dominion’s systems during a last-minute software fix before the Nov 3 election.

Testing from Pro V&V had been characterized as “superficial” and “cursory”

The use of "flash cards" in relation to Dominion voting systems was noted during the June 9 statewide primary election in Georgia and the runoff elections on Aug. 11.
theepochtimes.com/pre-election-c…
"when flash drives were connected to the server, the “media was automounted by the operating system. When the operating system is automounting a storage media, the operating system starts automatically to interact with the device.”"
"I observed personnel calling on the floor asking if all vote carrying compact flash cards had been delivered from the early voting machines for processing, followed by later finding additional cards which had been overlooked in apparent human error."

"The current investigation, a criminal probe, had begun very broadly but has since “narrowed considerably” and now “really is focused on the activities of the crossfire hurricane investigation within the FBI.""

On election:

“To date, we have not seen fraud on a scale that could have affected a different outcome in the election.”
apnews.com/article/electi…
“There’s been one assertion that would be systemic fraud and that would be the claim that machines were programmed essentially to skew the election results. And the DHS and DOJ have looked into that, and so far, we haven’t seen anything to substantiate that.”

This entire article...

"A contractor for Dominion...who performed IT work at the TCF Center in Michigan and a former state senator who was a poll challenger both say that the voting machines used in the Nov. 3 election were connected to the internet."

1) The Small World of Voting Machine Certification

An understaffed tiny federal agency and 2 private testing labs responsible for certification of nation's voting systems
theepochtimes.com/the-small-worl…
2) A deeper look into the certification process used for the machines reveals that the main certification agency in the US, the EAC, maintains an unexpectedly small staff, and one of its chief employees is a former executive of Dominion Voting Systems.
3) Furthermore it appears the bulk—if not all—of the testing of the election equipment is conducted by only two companies, Pro V&V and SLI Compliance.

Pro V&V was used by Georgia's SoS Raffensperger to do an "audit" of a random sample of machines.

1) Georgia Recount Plagued by Anomalies, According to Sworn Affidavits

Affidavits describe material problems with recount, “impeccable” ballots with “perfect black bubbles” for Biden, suspicions of fraud
theepochtimes.com/georgia-recoun…
2) A Poll manager w/20 years exp: “There was a difference in the texture of the paper—it was if they were intended for absentee use but had not been used for that purposes."

Ballots markings for candidates were “unusually uniform, perhaps even with a ballot-marking device.”
3) According to her estimate, approximately 98% of these ballots were votes for Biden, with only two ballots having votes for President Trump.

In her sworn statement, the poll manager stated her belief that “additional absentee ballots had been added in a fraudulent manner.”
