The bottom lines are that:
1) Too much stuff is classified (but everyone knows that).
2) Too much classified stuff is handled sloppily across the government (but everyone knows that).
3) Perhaps this will dissuade Biden from running for president again -- he really shouldn't run again (but everyone knows that).
@lauren I think classification is important to running an empire this size in a modern world...
... but I also like to remind myself that the first use of "That information is classified" / executive privilege in a court of law was to suppress evidence in the wrongful death suit brought by some families after their (civilian) loved ones died in a military plane crash...
... And fifty-odd years later, when those docs were declassified, they showed that the "secret" tech the contractors were working on was utterly mundane, but the plane they were on had a known history of malfunctions and maintenance lapses.
