Congress was the original classification authority (OCA). It let that power essentially slip away to the Executive Branch.
If we can't clearly and unequivocally condemn the actions of white supremacists, or simply acknowledge the January 6, 2021, attack on our Capitol for what it was, an insurrection, we fan the flames of hatred and violence.
Do not turn your material, do not turn your reports over to the Executive Branch and let them tell you what is or is not classified.
