At the heart of the case of "United States of America v. Donald J. Trump and Waltine Nauta" are 31 classified documents that former President Donald Trump kept at his Mar-a-Lago club, each briefly described in the indictment against him.

Those 31 documents are alluded to in the indictment using an intelligence shorthand, such as one labeled: "TOP SECRET//[redacted]/[redacted]// ORCON/NOFORN" that is followed by a brief description: "Document dated June 2020 concerning nuclear capabilities of a foreign country."

To decipher the intelligence markings of the classified documents and how sensitive the intelligence they contain might be, I turned to two of the United States' leading experts on intelligence.

Douglas London is a retired, 34-year veteran of the CIA's Clandestine Service with multiple postings in the Middle East, Africa and Asia, who spent much of his career recruiting agents in foreign countries and who has written a very interesting book about his experiences, "The Recruiter: Spying and the Lost Art of American Intelligence," along with frequent contributions to CNN Opinion.

I know little about Jack Smith, prosecutor of Donald Trump, but I do know this :

"If Jack Smith needs help from anyone, there are a lot of prosecutors in the federal government as well as in the
state governments who would be willing to help Jack Smith prosecute the case so Trump is convicted. I see Trump
as a totally arrogant rich guy who thinks he can get away with ...."anything and everything"

...Hiding the boxes of documents, and saying the boxes were shoe boxes, when there were pictures of documents
spread all over the floor, is proof of Trump lying in spite of the fact that there is proof of the fact that there
were top secret documents in pictures all over the media. Yes, Trump will lie about anything. Smith will have
help from the most experienced and dedicated people in the United States of America to prosecute Donald Trump
I posted this in "Creative Speculation" because I have no proof of this, but I think that help is available from
sources beyond belief. Why? .... We are not the only ones who want Trump found guilty. ...............And that is
the "Total Truth."

George Baily in the movie It's A Wonderful Life owes $8000, how much would he owe in 2023

$8,000 in 1946 is equivalent in purchasing power to about $124,770.05 today, an increase of $116,770.05 over 77 years.

Answer found at ...Google Search...So, that $8000 would have to be over $100,000 in today's dollars..........

If you view that movie, you will say, That isn't too much to owe...just $8000.

But in today's world George Baily would have to get over $100,000 in today's dollars to purchase the same thing.
...........So, in translation to today's dollars, George would have to get over $ 124,000 in today's money......
............So, in the end of the movie, the crowd of friends and relatives comes up with $8,000...That amount
is really $ 124,000 in today's money. Think about that when you watch the end of that movie.
