Late reply but I really need to watch this show, don't I? I love it dearly but it's one of those shows were everyone is a terrible human being and says horrible but hilarious things to each other. So it depends on if you like that or not. That said, I'm seriously contemplating rewatching all of the seasons after hearing the music, lol. I finally convinced H to watch with me while I rewatch in preparation for the new season. Every time I watch I pick up new little facial expressions or glances that add to the fun.

Wow, I can't believe after all these years of him being threatened and harassed that something happened now. He was in hiding in the early 90's! I hope he is okay.

I CANNOT wait until i'm old and decrepit and can just yell whatever shit hits my brain without filtering it. I mean its hard enough now, I can only imagine what i'll be like in 20-25 years.
my kids will be all there there mom, time for your nap.
But at least I wont be risking national security.

I'm taking DD back-to-school shopping this afternoon which is not ideal timing for current events revealing themselves. Ah well.

So does WSJ have an inside source? I am confused about where this info keeps coming from and if we can trust it

jenna , this is the best we seem to know for the moment ETA I will add the GOP party has bought into the nuclear stuff being taken, or they at least think it's plausible.

I need a diagram of the different levels of classification and how these are meant to be handled.

Yeah, no, you can't just declassify SCI materials by driving them across state lines. Even if you are/were president. It's like Michael Scott declaring bankruptcy.

There's Top Aecret, which you need a higher clearance to view. Then there's Secret Compartmented Information that you have to have TS clearance AND a legitimate reason related directly to doing your job to see. So, if I work at the Department of Transportation I can't just peruse SCI from, say, the State Department. You're also supposed to keep a lot of thus stuff in highly secured and phone-free facilities (SCIFs)
