congress came out forcefully on the side of the former president. they claimed others who did the same thing were let off or given a slap on the wrist. we re going to lay out the facts of those cases that they continue to cite to let you compare and contrast for yourself. but as for bill bar, donald trump s attorney general who helped shield him from trouble after the mueller investigation, there s no comparison. we re going to play that sound byte while we also watch this plane for donald trump to disembark. let s listen first. there are two big lies, i think, that are out there right now. one is, oh, these other presidents took all of these documents. those were situations where they arranged with the archives to set up special space under the management, control, and security provided by the archivist to temporarily put documents into the libraries were ready. these were not people just putting them in their basement. okay. and the second thing that the president, the id
