terrifying it is to see somebody like that on your front porch and thank goodness she has the camera that takes video, she has the proof for u.s. authorities of the level and the urgent nature of the threats. god bless her, hope she keeps going the great work she s been doing. she s not the sort of person who gives up, no question about that. sandra: and full agreement with you as you said that, john. john: growing calls for the white house to open up about the president s records, not the classified documents at his house from his time as vice president, but the records which have been held at the university of delaware going all the way back to his time serving in the senate. they are in a lock box there. jonathan turley is with us on the increasing calls for the university to finally open up those files to the public. he s coming up next. now i have this. inspire is a sleep apnea treatment that works inside my body with the click of this remote. no mask, no hose, just sleep. lea
learning. they are supposed to be places for access to information. but the bidens have converted the university of delaware into this lock box. and it s astonishing to me that the university has allowed itself to be used for these purposes. people have been trying to get access to those documents on issues, including alleged sexual assault or harassment allegations from biden s period in the senate. we now have the possibility that they could contain classified information. but the university has continued to stonewall. they have actually spent public money to resist efforts of the media to gain access to these documents. john: you wrote about this in the new york post and sent out a tweet about it, presumably this is the one question that karine jean-pierre could actually answer. if the president is striving to be very transparent he should be able to tell the university of delaware his records should be open to outside review.
how long are these things going to stay, jonathan, in a lock box before they are eventually released? that s what s bizarre. the university is not trying to come up with a plausible rationale, they are focusing on technical exceptions to state disclosure laws. but you know, you have jean-pierre who has said repeatedly the president wants transparency. and that s a virtual mantra. well, ok. this is the president who said you can take of word of a biden, let s take it. he wants transparency, and he can pick up the phone in 30 seconds open up the files for review. even if he s unwilling to do that after so many years, he could at least allow an independent third party to look for specific files on things like sexual harassment, and
they take it back would in all likelihood keep that document. i would assume if you have a cover sheet that meant you had classified information under it. typically in a briefing if someone gave the president a classified document with a folder they would take back both. yes. that s what s odd about the biden and the trump cases is you really do have somebody come and present it to you, brief it, talk you through it and then take it back. for the president to be holding and collecting in a drawer, classified documents isn t standard. if you keep it in your office it should be a lock box. the oval office is a scif but you still have to have it in a lock box. it doesn t make sense why he s leaning into the cover sheets. the president also said i think in his statement he has the folders but if there were any documents they were planted there. by the gestapo, his new name for the fbi. which is what the swaps are
be running the crazy town. and john boehner warned about this. it destroyed paul ryan. now kevin mccarthy is coming in and basically saying i m surrendering everything. i m taking my manhood and i am, you know, putting it in a lock box, and i m giving the key to lauren boebert and marjorie taylor greene, and louie gomert. how do people think this is going to work out in a positive way. and as much shotten freud we re all enjoying here, the fundamental business of governing, these folks are not interested in that and this is going to leave a lot of scars, and i think we have seen the pattern for the next two years. jackie as you approach another day, waiting to see what happens, we have mccarthy projecting confidence, at least
