Yes, I do and there are sites on the Internet that can assist with researching such information. Is posting insults cool or something? I didn't get that memo. If you want to be a negative, bad human, thats your choice i guess
Works for me.
As long as we’re on the same page with the possibility that there were stolen documents illegally at MAL dealing with nuclear technology and the locations of our nuclear weapons, it’s all good.

sure its possible. It is also possible they were taken with permission, legally, declassified, planted, Russian disinformation, or even non existent
sounds like an allegation.
in IT, I'm required by definition to consider anything is possible in most all cases even highly improbable things, you have to have an open mind. I constantly look at blocks of code and have to wonder what deleting/modifying it can indirectly affect even though in most cases it should be nothing. Ive seen things as stupid as modifying a documentation page breaking webcaching, it makes no sense. You have to embrace uncertainty sometimes.

The problem with your assertion is, as a federal le, the plain view doctrine would apply and he could have taken action on the spot, if a federal statute was violated.
It's not my assertion. Take your argument up with Mr. Rove.
Yes, it was a presidential residence. He doesn't live inside the club. Unless you can prove that he'd moved from one of the outer residential buildings and into the club?
Just an observation, the opening of the affidavit states “ The government is conducting a criminal investigation concerning the improper removal and storage of classified information in unauthorized spaces”
The appropriate statute would be 18 U.S. Code § 1924 - Unauthorized removal and retention of classified documents or material
But that’s not listed as a suspected charge, they list statutes that don’t specifically apply to classified documents, why not? Because the government recognizes they are declassified and therefore can’t find probable cause for the very basis of the criminal investigation.
You're making a lot of assumptions here.

When a president leaves office, does his residential SCIF magically disappear *poof*?
Of course, I know who the president is. Biden* is doing a very good job of destroying the country. Because of that then how can anyone not know who he is.
A former President would almost certainly have no need for a SCIF:
...Said Priess: "There's a myth out there that presidents have a formal security clearance. They don't."
The "commander in chief has the ability to classify or declassify documents," Priess said, by virtue of having been elected president by the American people. "A former president might receive access to limited classified material after leaving office to assist with writing memoirs or at the discretion of the current president, but a formal security clearance isn't involved."...
I would like to know if Bill Clinton's documents were reviewed with a fine-tooth comb after he left office. I would like to know if Hilary Clinton's documents were reviewed with a fine-tooth comb after she left office.I grant you there was likely wrongdoing. Trump has been under siege of investigations (he calls them witch-hunts) since the day of his election in 2016. This is not whatabout-ism; I want some even-handedness. I don't want Trump in office again. I don't want the country to degenerate into South Africa's Truth and Reconciliation Commission or France's Committee of Public Safety.
Except that's precisely what this is. I want even-handedness, too, but that means we recognize past failures as being such, not that we allow them to continue.
Whataboutisms are not terribly compelling from a legal perspective. Or from a logical perspective, for that matter.

Trump has compromised the security of the United States itself.
That the feds sat on their hands for 18 months proves that things aren't as dire as your fevered hand wringing would suggest.
