Hello and welcome to the Byron World Shared, no chipchat podcast, we'd like to get right

into it and what we're going to get into today is a question.

And the question is, whatever happened to the Trump classified documents damage assessment.

Do you remember that?

It was big news at the time.

Okay, so on August the 8th of last year, 2022, the FBI raids Mar-a-Lago.

Donald Trump's winter home and they seize all these classified documents.

All right, now a lot of Republicans don't quite know what to make of this story.

A lot of Democrats are saying, this is terrible, terrible, terrible,

treason, he's selling the nation's secrets to the Saudis or somebody.

He's doing something really, really bad.

So Democrats in Congress asked the intelligence community to do what was

called a damage assessment of the documents found in at Mar-a-Lago.

So they write a letter to the head of the intelligence community, Avril Haynes.

He was the chairman at the time and there was the oversight committee chair,

Carolyn Maloney, she was the chair at the time, now both in the minority.

And they cited news reports about the classification levels of these documents.

In other words, here's what the newspapers and cable TV has said about these documents.

And one report they focused on in particular was a very sensational

Washington Post report that said that Trump had held documents concerning nuclear weapons.

You may remember that one.
