So if Patel can't stipulate what documents were supposedly declassified....supposedly in his presence... .....then his testimony ain't worth shit.
and ...ooops...there's still that damn damn pesky precedent.....that Trump's DOJ used.
The Trump DOJ pushed back on this, however, and successfully argued that mere presidential proclamations are insufficient to formally declassify documents.
"Because declassification, even by the President, must follow established procedures, that argument fails."
