I'm watching the Duran and Robert Barnes (very long video) and Barnes characterizes the war on Trump as the Deep State/national security state trying to establish a precedent that they, and not the President - in whom the power of the Executive is solely vested under the Constitution - are the only ones who can decide what is Secret. He brings the issue back around to Assange's observation that it's those Secrets, withheld from the public, that enable governments around the world to do all the horrific things they do, or for that matter for a Deep State to exist at all.

One of the motions to dismiss brought by Trump's attorneys is on the grounds of disparate treatment wrt classified documents, compared to Joe Biden, of course; but also Hillary because of her private email server; Obama, who stored classified docs in an abandoned furniture store; Bush Jr. who stored them in an abandoned Chinese restaurant and permanently deleted over 20k documents before leaving the WH; Clinton, who stored transcripts of his secretly recorded conversations with foreign leaders in his sock drawer and took them with him; and Poppy Bush, who destroyed tens of thousands of documents from the Reagan administration when he came to the WH in 1989. None of these individuals were ever prosecuted, of course.
