      Not really. As @emptywheel notes, any trial involving classified information & CIPA isn't going to happen in that window. So, one could insist on a speedy trial but would be forgoing potentially significant evidence that would be readily available but for classification https://twitter.com/JoKEas2/status/973277490469851136 …

      It doesn't negate it, but it's like saying she could go to trial tomorrow if she's willing to forgo her right to counsel or to give up a jury trial or to cross-examine witnesses. It's not in the normal range of trade-offs.

      Apple's oranges. The classifying of material has no bearing on this case except she illegally released a classified document. Either she did or she didn't. Whether it should be classified or not is not the question.

      The guy who used to be in charge of the entire classification system disagrees with you. Are you saying you know better than he does?

          Disagrees with What? Ask him if the release of classified material should be illegal and punished. I'm 100% certain he will say yes. Whether something should be classified or not is a totally different question and has no bearing on this case.

          You can read his statement in the linked post if you'd like to know his views, thus far, in this case. Which also shows you don't know WTF you're talking about.

          I could give a shit what he thinks. It was marked classified, she released it, she doesnt have authority to release classified docs. That is the only questions needed. Whether it should be classified or not is another debate entirely and has no bearing on this case.

          Lol. You call me an idiot. You are the dumbfuck that says she should make a determination whether it should be classified. SMDH
