FBI agents found 11 sets of classified documents during their search at former President Donald Trump's Florida estate Monday, some of which contained Top Secret Sensitive Compartmented Information, or TS/SCI.
Three tiers exist for national security clearance that range from the lowest level to the highest, including confidential, secret, and top secret, according to the Technology Transformation Services Handbook, which breaks down the key security clearance levels of government agencies.
Notably, the FBI confiscated"various classified/TS/SCI documents" from Trump's estate, which are labeled under the designation reserved for highly sensitive materials that are vital to U.S. national security. Needless to say, procedures for declassification of materials are a complex matter. A sitting president does have authority and may declassify anything at any time, though it is subject to certain provisions under the Atomic Energy Act.
