The senator says that Trump had a "get out of jail free card" for storing classified information.
He told CNN that Trump needs to be held responsible.
The FBI took sensitive government records from Trump's house.
The reason Donald Trump had highly classified documents at his Florida estate was to later use them as leverage in a potential prosecution, according to Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine.
The reason that Donald Trump took all this classified information is because I'm on the armed services and foreign relations committee. I spend a lot of time in secure Senate facilities and I know what this information is like.
The secrets are safe under Biden, according to the senator. The FBI and DOJ are trying to bring back the secrets so that Donald Trump doesn't have them and have consequences for him if he takes them with him.
We need to impose accountability for this.

The FBI seized some "top secret" documents from Mar-a-Lago that Trump took with him from the White House, according to reports. The documents were mixed with his personal items.
The Department of Justice is looking into the matter. There may be more missing documents that the agency hasn't recovered.
Michael Cohen said last month that Trump would use the documents as a bargaining chip.
Cohen said on the program that after he was put in handcuffs, he would turn around and say he had the documentation to show where the nuclear launch pads are.
He would use it to say, 'If you proceed with this, I'm telling you right now there's 20 of my loyal supporters, you don't know who they are, but we will release that information to Russia, to Iran.''
