DOJ says presidents should be able to sell secrets on eBay

# Summary The DOJ has taken the legal position that presidents can treat White House records as personal property and sell classified information, a stance the Freedom of the Press Foundation is challenging in court. Meanwhile, the Trump administration is conducting selective and politically motivated declassification efforts, releasing documents that were already public while simultaneously restricting FOIA access and undermining government transparency institutions. These actions represent a systematic attempt to politicize classified information for partisan advantage while preventing the public from accessing consequential government records.
