The Russians have nukes, I'd be more worried about the Saudis. Last thing we want is nukes in the Middle East (y'know, ignoring Israel's whole "we toooootallly don't have any nuclear weapons...." thing).
there is a non zero chance he brought them back to show them off at parties to make himself look important
There is so much intel that could be gained by Presidential level nuke docs it's not even funny. It's got nothing to do with whether they have them or not...
The gun thing I get, the nail gun thing I do not get. People know that nail guns actually don’t shoot nails worth shit, right? They know The Equalizer was complete horseshit, right?
Lethal Weapon was the original, if I'm not mistaken. And for the record, you're never too old for that shit.
I doubt they're "how to build a nuclear weapon 101" docs...more likely current arsenal status, procedures, posture, readiness rates, etc., Information a US president would regularly see and information the Russians & Chinese would be interested in.
Could be a lot of things. Could also be intel on how the US is monitoring any Iranian/Saudi nuclear ambitions, which would also be more relevant to the Saudis than the Russians.
The other part of the story is that they already made him cough up the boxes of stuff he took. This is the stuff he knowingly kept behind even after the first subpoena.
someone who shoots anything at an FBI building, is clearly not bright enough to think through the process of how well a nail gun does or does not work at firing said nails
What do you mean? This here’s a gun powder activated, 27 caliber, full auto, no kickback, nail-throwing mayhem man.
And Roger used it correctly. Nailed ‘em both. He slammed it into them, the way a nail gun really works. They don’t “shoot nails”
Eeeeeehhhh, I mean, you're not wrong. It's also often the case that you never know its value until you need it. E.g. see all the hollywood asshats who start their revelations with "now that I have a daughter..."
Unsurprisingly if you knew my sister, she once had someone in a garage below her using a nail gun to drive nails into the ceiling in an attempt to put one through her foot. She had to dance across the room like she was in a cheap comedy movie. The dude called it an accident, the police disagreed .
My sister feels the need to speak her mind regardless of circumstances. Combine her bitchy and abrasive personality with a tendency to associate with people who are more than a little rough around the edges and conflict inevitably arises. As an example, One of her former friends- not the guy with the nail gun - is in state prison for weapons violations and attempting to blow up someones truck. She started pissing off people in high school, and as her older brother I would get drawn into it, but as I realized she would spend her entire life getting herself into these situations I backed away. Nail gun guy was a criminal (drugs, theft, assault), but she couldn’t keep her mouth shut around him and decided to tell him what an asshole she thought he was. She was in a loft space above a garage with a simple plywood floor, he went into the garage below her and started firing nails through the floor.
