federal law it's a crime to destroy or removed classified documents so long as the person acts intentionally, meaning on purpose, knowing they are classified. well if the documents have the words of classification stamped on them, kind ever hard to argue that you didn't know. and i should say, there are three levels of official classification in the u.s. government. the lowest is confidential. then in the middle is secret. at the fop is top secret. some documents reportedly marked top secret. the official government definition of top secret is that if the documents came out they would pose exceptionally grave danger potentially to the united states. so this is really serious stuff. >> it really is. they are top secret. plenty in there. now sit something around mar-a-lago. and i just want to now make sure anyone watching understands they weren't just, you know sort of willy-nilly put together by somebody and ended up there. no the post reports that trump was secretive about the packing of boxes retrieved from mar-a-lago and did not let other aides including seen year
