Phoenix, Arizona, is so hot that people doing nothing more than walk around are collapsing and need urgent rescue.
The corrupter could be put in prison for years for taking secret documents home, or for destroying them.
I don't understand why Risen proposes to involving the Espionage Act in this. That would be very dangerous, because it could legitimize the misuse of that law to prosecute whistleblowers.
Until the day we change that law to protect whistleblowers, whose "crime" is to tell the people about the state's actions, we must not lump them together with people like the corrupter who take secret documents in order to deny the state access to them and block it from functioning.
Amazon wants to purchase One Medical, a medical treatment company which holds lots of patients' medical records. And if it can purchase iRobot, which makes robot vacuum cleaners, it can collect data about the lives of the people who use them.
FBI agents searched the corrupter's home at Mar-a-Lago, looking for secret government papers he was not allowed to remove from the files. Naturally they had to look inside his safe, but if "breaking in" implies damaging the safe, that was gratuitous. Thugs often cause gratuitous damage to people when they search. and many of those people aren't rich like the corrupter and can't shrug off the cost of those damages
They should have given him — and anyone whose premises they search — the chance to open things for them and avoid damage.
However, there is no reason to suppose he was honest about this. (He's not usually honest.) Maybe the safe was opened without damaging it.
