So he could get rid of any other classified documents that Hunter probably has in his bedroom?? This is why I don't trust ANY of them. THEY did this to themselves, and they all deserve to hang.; 1/15/23, 9:27 AM
Gusty Winds said...: Trump more than likely had documents damaging to the FBI. So they raided his home and went through Melania's underwear drawer.

There was a flurry of Biden activity regarding Ukraine and China in the last days of the Obama administration. We already know what documents were important to him and his fellow grifters.

I thought Bill Clinton was the most white trash President in American history...and then along came the Bidens.

2023 is going to be insane. You ready??; 1/15/23, 9:28 AM

Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves said...: "Right now, beyond a very few details furnished by the Justice Department in the announcement of the appointment of special counsel Robert Hur, everything the public knows about the classified documents has come from the Biden team. "

This is serious business, the fbi should be banging down the door and rifling through Jill’s panty drawer. I mean this is missing TOP SECRET NATIONAL SECURITY ULTRA IMPORTANT stuff.

Our doj/fbi are totally corrupt, there is no doubt. They must be razed to the ground.; 1/15/23, 9:48 AM
Yancey Ward said...: It would interesting to know who exactly forced the lawyers' hands on this issue. It has to be someone pretty high up in the Democrat party who knew Biden had these documents (it was probably on the check-out list of the documents indicating that Biden had them, and had not returned them). That someone informed Biden's lawyers to start looking for them, and that someone was willing to sit on this until after the mid-terms in order to not damage the party further, but that someone also told Biden it would not be kept secret forever.

I think the goal is not to get Biden to step aside, but to get Biden to renounce a second term. My money is on Nancy Pelosi, who will be supporting a Gavin Newsom candidacy.; 1/15/23, 9:51 AM

Mike (MJB Wolf) said...: If Trump’s negotiating with the archivist was deemed “uncooperative” and warranted an armed raid by the FBI then why is the repeated lie from Biden’s team “that’s all of them, we pinky swear” not stimulating the same armed response by our American Gestapo? The FBI’s credibility is being degraded with every new revelation from Biden’s team, and Biden’s lawyers don’t even have authority to see the documents they have been sent to search for.

Aren’t we all feeling lucky now, again, that the Turtle kept Garland off the SCOTUS?; 1/15/23, 9:53 AM
Dave Begley said...: When will the FBI tell us how much crypto the Bidens own?; 1/15/23, 9:54 AM
Temujin said...: Well, exactly. The Dems got out in front of this the minute they decided Joe's time was done. They'd got through the mid-terms, doing far better than anyone expected (with a huge assist from the Repubs and the Supreme Court). They'd gotten more out of Joe than anyone expected back during his campaign, when they had to keep him 'lidded' from 9:30 am- on.

But now, they're done with him. They, somehow 'found' these files. And look- over there!- more files, more docs. So neatly laid out. They've grabbed control of the narrative, and this storyline will go as they direct if from here. With an assist from the DoJ, and Senate, and the media.

Joe is done. Long live The Cackle.; 1/15/23, 10:02 AM
hombre said...: Well, after all, "We choose truth over facts." Joe Biden

Actually, we only know what his lawyers have said after it was washed by the leftmedia.; 1/15/23, 10:04 AM
Mike Sylwester said...: I speculate that the bulk of Trump's documents are related to the RussiaGate investigation. In the last days of his presidency, he ordered all such documents be declassified, but that order was being resisted.

Therefore, it makes sense that he took such documents with him from the White House. Also, it makes sense that he says he has declassified those documents.

=======

I speculate further that the bulk of Joe Biden's documents are related to the influence-peddling efforts of his son Hunter Biden.

Perhaps Joe Biden thinks those documents exonerate the Bidens to some extent. For example, perhaps the CIA published some reports or assessments indicating that Hunter Biden's activities in Ukraine, China, etc. were not necessarily corrupt.

Perhaps Joe Biden was expecting some future investigations or prosecutions and wanted to make sure he had some such evidence for legal defenses.

If that was the situation, then it makes sense that some lawyers working for the Bidens decided to inventory all such documents in early November, when it seemed the Republicans would win control of Congress. The Bidens and their lawyers figured that such investigations and prosecutions might be imminent.

If so, then the participating lawyers refused to participate in a cover-up. They insisted that the document inventory be provided to the US Government.

=======

Anyway, that is my own speculation about this situation.; 1/15/23, 10:08 AM

Trump was in negotiations over those documents. It's a lie to pretend that he simply refused to turn them over. His position was that they are his and so he doesn't need to turn them over. The government has thus far provided zero evidence that Trump wasn't right.; 1/15/23, 11:31 AM

TreeJoe said...: Does anyone wonder why someone would have their personal lawyers packing up offices and going through files?

It's very simple. Hillary Clinton was probably the most public master of this.

Because you can hide behind your lawyers, and yours lawyers can hide behind client privilege.

Do we not see what money can buy? You can legally use a 3rd party to take actions that neither they nor you have to answer to or respond to in normal course of law. If you can afford it.

I have to say: Who actually believes the "personal lawyers" came across TS-SCIF materials and STOPPED READING THEM "after they discovered the first."

That is such obvious bullshit. Of course they catalogued everything, discussed with their principal(s), destroyed anything too toxic, then raised a flag if they felt they needed to.

That's how this stuff works.; 1/15/23, 11:51 AM

planetgeo said...: I think most people are missing the reason for "why now?", incorrectly assuming that it's to get rid of Biden. Why would they do that? He's the perfect empty vessel to sail all their craziest leftist schemes. Nobody else (not Obama, not Kamala, nobody) could have imposed half the nutty stuff he's imposed on this country. Everybody just shrugs and figures "it's just crazy old Uncle Joe." Think about it.

No. The simple reason they have done this now is that the Republicans just won the House and are about to start investigations. They are obviously scrambling to get ahead of the subpoenas by "voluntarily" finding and very partially revealing what has been hidden to date. If they hadn't, there are many, many others in the DOJ/FBI/WH/DNC cabal of co-conspirators who would have gotten enmeshed in the revelations and faced the pain and costs of "the process". Some will anyway. But this gives them some cover.; 1/15/23, 11:58 AM
Amexpat said...: The biggest problem with Joe Biden is Joe Biden. As Obama reputedly said of him: "Don't underestimate Joe's ability to fuck things up."

And things were going so well for him. The mid-term elections were better than expected, and the successful help given to Ukraine made everyone forget the Afghanistan fiasco.

What's the deal with waiting?

What was he going to do prior to the GOP taking the house and the release of the Twitter files? Those can be game changers. At the moment he doesn't have to do anything. It might slowly be done. And it's being done without breaking any laws about release of classified information.

What do you think? A President or former President can just control everything in the swamp on a whim? Trump was one man, with a few close allies (let's be thankful for Matt Gaetz), and tens of millions of supporters.

He doesn't have to shit right now. Neither does DeSantis. That's good for both of them, and anyone opposed to the swamp. Let McCarthy now do his job. The job that Trump allies are forcing him to do. Don't kid yourself. Trump had a hand in the Freedom Caucus holdout and it's negotiations which went quite well.

The new TDS is almost as irrational as the old. What is it you actually want to succeed? You want to hand Trump over to the Romans and think that solves the problems we both agree exist? You're gonna pretend the Romans aren't going to then crucify DeSantis upside down?

I don't get it because I still think we are on the same side.; 1/15/23, 12:27 PM

Classified documents weren't found in Joe Biden's garage because it's not Joe Biden's garage. It's Hunter Biden's garage.

Nobody is asking why Hunter Biden is in possession and has access to classified US government documents.

And the reason that nobody is asking is because Joe Biden's lawyers have told the media to say that they're in Joe Biden's garage.

But Joe Biden doesn't own that house.

Kathryn51 said...: I believe that the attorney in charge of the initial "boxing up" process left the White House counsel's office in August and went to work for a white shoe law firm and became Biden's personal attorney.

How does this work? While in the White House, her client is the White House and any information regarding Biden's activities outside of the White House are NOT privileged. Someone gets a hint that ole' Joe hasn't been exactly careful about his personal records. She leaves the WH, becomes his personal attorney and the first action item is to not only clean up the mess he left at the Penn center but discover just how bad it might be.

As Byron York says - we are now in the middle of the story. And our "justice" system knows exactly how this works and they understand that when they were notified in November, we were in the middle of the story.

We will learn how and why the story began when the Dems (translation: Clyburn) are ready to toss him aside. I wonder if they are trying to figure out how to make Kamala "adjacent" to the scandal.; 1/15/23, 12:55 PM

Hillary purposely destroyed evidence under subpoena, had her staff members "scrape" classification markings off documents, kept records on her completely unsecured home brew server and then bleachbit-ted that server. There are about a hundred other salient differences that could be noted as well.

Jess said...: Theoretically, the attorneys might have broken laws if they read anything in the documents. To add insult injury, many involved in any investigation might be exposed to the same problem. So, we have people needing to develop a defense, or present charges, who can't do either due to the nature of the documents.

So, we have a paradox, and thinking the typical methods of handling the problem is probably futile. If I had to handle this problem, the first step would be removing Biden from office, determining if national security was compromised, and only having military rules followed for any prosecution. Biden is the head of the military, and the military is who should investigate.; 1/15/23, 2:06 PM
Drago said...: Hunter Biden's tax payer funded Hooker: "If Trump had the goods on the FBI - he needed to do something about it already.
What's the deal with waiting?"

Trump was threatened by your hero GOPe-ers that they would vote with democraticals to impeach and remove him from office if he (Trump) "interfered" in any way with the non-stop sham investigations.

And there were plenty of GOPe-ers lined up to do just that in coordination with their democratical allies. That's how they kept Trump in check to a great degree, in addition to McConnell making it very clear that any and every strong Trump supporter would be denied the Senate votes necessary for cabinet positions. Then, those that were allowed thru played along with the GOPe-ers and dems to not actually try to implement any Trump policies.

That's another reason the GOPe-ers and dems are petrified of a Trump second potential win: those threats would not work a second time and Trump would run roughshod over the dems/GOPe BS "security" claims.; 1/15/23, 2:07 PM

"As to the second sentence, what do you do about Kamala? She is a female POC while Newsome has zero points on the Dem diversity scale."

Nothing has to be done about Kamala- she couldn't even make it to Iowa last time. The only way she has even 1% chance of winning the nomination is if Biden resigns, is impeached and removed, or dies in office allowing her to run as President. Newsom or others really just need Biden out of the way. I think Biden is easily beatable in the primaries, even running for re-election- it took a coordinated effort at the highest levels of the Democratic Party to fix the last primary election cycle for Biden- he wasn't capable of winning a single state on his own effort.; 1/15/23, 2:42 PM
