I'll got out on a limb and introduce my own theory on WHAT the docs are...

They MAY have something to do with nuclear secrets, etc...


But here's what I THINK the bulk of it is....

Remember, he's obsessed with the "Russia Investigation" leading up to Mueller Report.

The whole Carter Page, George Papadopolous, Christopher Steele thing...

Now read between the lines.

He gave National Archives access to John Solomon. Who the fuck is John Solomon you ask?

He's the former Washington Times editor in Chief/Exec who went on to be a Fox News contributor and worked closely with Sean Hannity digging up info about the Russia investigation.

From 2018, John Solomon had ONE job. He researched the Russia investigation. He set the framework for many of the popular conspiracy theories that arose on the topic.

So... Trump's defender, Trump's "journalist" gets access to the National Archives in the final days of the Trump administration.

And he has Kash Patel, the guy with the US Gov't nametag opening doors.

Why?

To collect the basis for the "Russia Investigation" documents. To have them packaged and sent to M-A-L.

Why? Here's the real question. Trump said he was declassifying all the documents related to the "Russia Investigation" so the public could know the "truth".

But knowing Trump... more than likely it was to HIDE something from further scrutiny.

I'm willing to BET that the documents in question TODAY are the foundational documents and product of the Russia/Steele investigation and it includes information about human assets, the FBI/CIA actors who interacted with Page and Papadapolous, etc.

A succinct timeline of what happened at Mar-a-Lago

The FBI raided Mar-A-Lago on Monday following months of controversy over Trump bringing back documents to his Florida estate.

Under the Presidential Records Act, White House documents are required to be preserved and turned over to the National Archives and should not be kept in the ex-president’s possession when they leave office.

The National Archives said in February it had “arranged for the transport of” 15 boxes of documents from Mar-A-Lago, which multiple outlets report Trump only turned over when threatened with legal action, and reports emerged in April that the FBI was looking into the matter at the Archives’ request.

The FBI then reportedly met with Trump’s associates at Mar-A-Lago in June to gather more information on the documents and where they had been stored. After that meeting, the Journal reports agents asked for the room where the documents had been stored to be secured and for any items that were transported from the White House to Mar-A-Lago to be preserved. According to the Journal and the Washington Post, investigators were skeptical about whether Trump’s associates were being “truthful” when asked if there were more documents that hadn’t been turned over.

For those who are curious... new nuclear codes are generated DAILY.

Here's the process.

And the code can't be viewed without breaking the "biscuit" holding the code.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold_Codes#:~:text=Gold%20Codes%20are%20generated%20daily,States%20Strategic%20Command%20and%20TACAMO.

The Gold Codes are the launch codes for nuclear weapons provided to the president of the United States in his role as commander-in-chief of the armed forces.[1] In conjunction with the nuclear football, the Gold Codes allow the president to authorize a nuclear attack.[2] Gold Codes, as well as a separate nuclear football, are also assigned to the vice president in case the president is incapacitated or otherwise unable to discharge the duties of office pursuant to the Twenty-fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution.[3][4] Gold Codes are arranged in a column and printed on a plastic card nicknamed "the biscuit."[5]

The card's size is similar to that of a credit card, and the president is supposed to carry it on his person. Before it can be read, an opaque plastic covering must be snapped in two and removed.[6]

Gold Codes are generated daily and provided by the National Security Agency (NSA) to the White House, The Pentagon, United States Strategic Command and TACAMO. For an extra level of security, the list of codes on the card includes codes that have no meaning, and therefore the president must memorize where on the list the correct code is located. The concept behind the codes is that they permit the president to positively identify themself as the commander-in-chief and thereby authenticate a launch order to the National Military Command Center (NMCC).[7][8]
