Realizing the PHI of a president, even a illegitimate one, will most likely be classified as TS, classifying anything at that level where it's disclosure carries grave consequences to the defense of the Nation is a crime, and classifying anything to hide a crime, is a crime. That said, even though Garland is the OCA (Original Classifying Authority), the classification can still be argued. If it is found there is nothing at that level, it can be class'd down, commensurate to present data or declass'd altogether - this is can be an exhausting process. I would assume at the changing of admins, this classification will go under scrutiny.
