  1. The president has the ultimate authority to declassify documents. Here's the Supreme Court "The President, after all, is the ‘Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States’" according to Article II of the Constitution, the court’s majority wrote. "His authority to classify and control access to information bearing on national security ... flows primarily from this constitutional investment of power in the President, and exists quite apart from any explicit congressional grant." Steven Aftergood, director of the Federation of American Scientists Project on Government Secrecy, said that such authority gives the president the authority to "classify and declassify at will." This is even from Politifact. It doesn't matter if congress has passed legislation. That still cannot change the presidents constitutional powers.
