Our former president has been charged with 37 felony counts related to his taking classified documents from the White House, storing them insecurely at Mar a Lago, showing the documents to people without proper security clearances, participating in a conspiracy to conceal them, refusing to return them when they were demanded back by the national archives, and a variety of obstruction of justice charges.

The documents he improperly took, stored and concealed contain our nation's most guarded secrets, including secrets about our nuclear program, our vulnerabilities to attack, contingency plans for attacks, and our allies' defensive capabilities.

These are serious crimes that put the security of our nation, and our allies at risk.

Without using the words "Hillary", "Hunter", or "weaponization", can anyone explain why we as a nation should allow these crimes by the former president to go unpunished?
