This is precisely what happened to the transcript of the Zelensky call that led to Trump’s first impeachment. They stashed it in a code-word classified system for political reasons.
The whistleblower complaint against Gabbard was allegedly that info was being classified for political reasons.
Now seems like a good time for the intelligence community IG to have its own FOIA office so you don't have to submit your requests for IG records through DNI headquarters first.

Okay I keep seeing this, but Black folks are not immigrants. We were captured and brought over here against our will, we did not immigrate over here. Nothing against immigrants, but we were forced over here so the very definition of immigration does not apply

KIM: Trump is now suing the Treasury and IRS for $10 billion. He even said 'I'm supposed to work out a settlement with myself.' Do you think that is a conflict of interest?

WARREN: This should be an easy one. Can you commit that Trump's Fed nominee will not be sued or investigated by the DOJ if he does not cut interest rates like Trump wants?

Trump at the National Prayer Breakfast: "We hit 'em. And we want to hit 'em right, sir, and we want to hit them from the top! East, west, north, south. Sir, they won't know what the hell! And we'll knock them out. We did it politically correct. Five years."

Utterly fucking terrifying. I lived in the final shadows of the Cold War and let me tell you, the thought of nuclear annihilation at the tender age of eight will have you thinking.
The last remaining nuclear arms pact between Russia and the United States expires Thursday, removing any caps on the two largest atomic arsenals for the first time in more than a half-century.
