"...how the former president and his team knowingly put our national security at risk."

National security. A nation secure from external threats. A nation which protects the population living within it from external influence and danger.

To be claiming to represent national security with an explicit policy of opening our southern border is a remarkable twisting of reality. One of the single greatest and most obviously and evidently counter-reality policies of the current administration lies in "migration control" with Mexico. It is OBVIOUSLY out of control. Yet this administration continues to deny what is impossible to deny. We daily watch thousands of people crossing the United States [theoretical] border in a radically uncontrolled manner, and you have the gall to talk about "national security"?

If you want a secure nation, treat your nation as a nation. Nations control their borders. Offer your citizens the benefit of protection from people entering with zero affiliation with our country or its systems. Until you respect the citizens of your country enough to offer them the simplest and most basic of your responsibilities (that they have a country with borders that is their own in which to live), you have no leg to stand on to discuss "national security."

None.

You really should write more explicit statements that are to the point. Trump is guilty of holding top secret documents (which he now confims in a Tweet were in his posession and are those photographed here) that put our secret service people and national secrets in danger and in arm's reach of the highest bidding foreigner (which is why Trump wanted them; to sell the information; he and hsi family should face the death penalty for treason during the past 5 years). (On the other bits of the essay, we agree on stricter border controls and migration policies.)
