As you note, as long as he does this officially, there are no legal constraints on his doing so.

It is against his nature to do something like that.
If he released anything, it would be a brief summary of actions taken with no details.

in a safe place and not tell anyone. Then in two years, open it like a time capsule with much fanfare and flag waving. T**** will definitely order all copies and files destroyed.

The case(s) are still active and destruction of evidence is a VERY serious crime.

(414 posts)12. If I remember right he helped Ellesberg copy the papers removed from the DOD and was a co-conspirator...
