marked classified ts sci, which refers to top secret sensitive compartmented information. also found, four sets of top secret staff comments. three sets of secret documents and three sets of confidential documents. a total of 11 sets of classified records. three laws are also listed as a legal basis for the warrant. one is part of the espionage act. and while that has a lot of people jumping to conclusions and conjuring up visions of spies, it is important to note the espionage act encompasses a lot more than just that. it makes it a crime to remove or misuse information related to national defence. also listed, a law forbidding hiding or destroying classified material, and another makes it illegal to destroy or falsify evidence in an investigation. former solicitor general neal katyal explained why that last one is very significant. that is the one that probably does require an inside source, a mueller something like that working with the fbi. otherwise, it s hard for me to
