LOL! If you'll remember one of Obama's people got caught sneaking out with a document in his socks. LOL!!
Could they have screwed up any worse? Possible. They are desperate. They have to get TGrump on something or make it seem like they have something really big for the midterm elections. I guess they have abandoned bringing out another China virus.
I think you might be talking about this guy! This is just another example of the Justice Department being used to cover up criminal activity of the Democrats! Bill Clinton sent him to the National Archives to take the documents to destroy evidence! The Clintons have always gotten away with “murder”……… literally! 😂
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-people-sandyberger-obituary/former-u-s-national-security-adviser-sandy-berger-dies-idUSKBN0TL1OL20151203Berger was heavily involved in U.S. relations with China, as well as advising Clinton on the NATO bombing campaign in Yugoslavia in 1999, the 1996 attacks at Khobar Towers in Saudi Arabia that killed 19 Americans and the U.S. Embassy bombings Kenya and Tanzania in 1998.
In the closing months of Clinton’s term, Berger was a prominent player at the 2000 Camp David summit in which Clinton tried unsuccessfully to advance the Middle East peace process.
Those accomplishments were overshadowed in July 2004, when the Justice Department revealed it was investigating whether Berger had removed classified documents and notes from the National Archives several months before his testimony to the commission investigating the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the United States.
At first, Berger at first said removing the documents in his attaché case and pants and jacket pockets was accidental, but later admitted he had done it deliberately. One Archives employee said Berger stuffed the papers down his pant legs.
Berger pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor, and was fined more than $50,000 and given 100 hours of community service and probation. He also lost his security clearance.
Republicans were outraged, saying Berger was trying to destroy incriminating evidence. But the Justice Department said he only took copies to cut up and no original material was lost.
Still, Berger was forced to resign as a foreign policy consultant to Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry.
Berger also had controversies during his days at the White House. A number of Republicans called for his resignation when it was learned that he was aware in 1996 that China was trying to get designs of U.S. nuclear warheads, but did not tell Clinton for more than a year.
In November 1997, Berger paid $23,000 to settle a conflict of interest charge over stock holdings. He had been told by the White House three years earlier to sell his stock of Amoco Corp but he did not, saying he forgot. The Justice Department found no intent to break the law.
