tessa, two questions here. number one, i say classified, if i understand this correctly, once the president does it, does something like this, he has in effect unilaterally declassified it. he's, in other words, able to do this. if you can explain that just in terms of from a legal standpoint, can he do that, when we say classified material. but also the question of why. >> right. so the president today said he had, quote, the absolute right to release that photo, and that is essentially true. the president has the legal authority to declassify information related to national security concerns. there is a supreme court case in 1988 which said that that largely -- it's a constitutional authority, it comes from the constitution and separation of powers. and it is also governed by executive orders. the latest of which was signed by president trump obama in 2009. so even if that image had been classified, president trump could declassify it. now, that doesn't mean that there wouldn't be strategic concerns or whethe
