In case anyone is still wondering, yes, there are going to be classified documents found in various locations for all living former US Presidents and Vice-Presidents, at least.
Gov't principals have TS doc teams they travel with, portable SCIFs, etc. Humans will make mistakes.
But we will find only one of them intentionally took, kept, and lied about TS docs and Presidential records. Only one will be at the center of a decades long hub and spoke conspiracy that fits like a glove.

PENCE discovered two boxes that included classified records and four boxes that included potential presidential records, but indicated he believed they were "courtesy copies" of records the Archives already possessed.
He sent those to NARA yesterday.

BREAKING: Iowa's House has passed a bill to spend hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars each year to pay families' private school costs, a top priority of Republican Gov. Kim Reynolds.
"The private school voucher bill passed 55-45, with nine Republicans joining every Democrat to oppose the bill. It's expected to win passage in Iowa's Senate tonight.
Roughly half of Iowa counties don't have any private schools."
This is completing what Betsy #DeVos couldn't do as SoE. It's a clearly labeled plank of the #NAR

“The refusal of Kevin McCarthy to push back against George Santos is just one more sign that the Grand Old Party has no morals, stands for nothing, and will only reach its justifiable demise when voters decide they’ve really had enough. In the meantime, newly installed Congressman Santos is the GOP’s lying face.

@AlliFlowers Oh no, they *love* it. You know somebody is very serious about being in business when they cherry-pick one or two things they’ve heard from academics or in a TEDx talk and then beat them to death, usually bereft of any context.
It was an okay day for me and I’m grateful for it. Today was the worst day ever for 10 families. America is killing Americans. Adults and children. Unique, precious, irreplaceable people. It’s a burden we all carry till we do something about it. Being pro-gun reform doesn’t exonerate me from culpability. The carnage reflects our values as a nation. It’s disgraceful and we should all be ashamed. With each shooting, we should be ashamed.
