Had the Former Guy done what Biden did, he might have gotten away with it.
But he obstructed the National Archives and the DOJ every step of the way.
He felt he had a right to keep those documents.
Intent matters and obstruction definitely matters.
Biden is the one on the hot seat right now.
His own party members are saying he is an embarrassment.

Certainly not the way both parties have handled them.
One, fully cooperating while the other obstructed the investigation every step of the way.
One not claiming to have a right to possess classified material, while the other claims that they belong to him and that he somehow magically declassified hundreds of documents.

As much as you might hope, he's not nearly out of the woods yet.
The people who should really be embarrassed are the ones who put that grifter into office to begin with.
He has almost singlehandedly destroyed the Republican Party.
BTW, if it is found that Biden knowingly took classified material with him when he left the Vice Presidency, intentionally hid that fact, refused to turn them over to the National Archives and lied to the DOJ about it, then he should be held accountable for that.

Right.

The main concern was he mishandled classified docs. Just like Trump. Both broke the law.
When it comes to handling classified material it doesn’t.
If the documents were removed by mistake, no legal action will likely be taken, since he self reported and turned them over to the National Archives as soon as they were discovered.Zeets2 » 16 Jan 2023, 12:47 pm » wrote: ↑You're damn right they're not the same!Misty » 16 Jan 2023, 12:18 pm » wrote: ↑ Yes, it is an embarrassment considering what Biden said about the Former Guy, but that does not make the two cases the same.

Show me WHEN Biden EVER had the right to remove and possess classified documents?
No evidence has emerged publicly to indicate that Biden knew they had been taken improperly.
If the vice president did not personally remove them when he left the White House, Mr. Hur will no doubt try to determine which aides were involved in packing his papers.

misty, I luv ya but even you gotta admit he’s lost the democrats over this.
True! But also the nature of what those documents are matters a great deal!

The PRA of 1978 required to turn all Presidential documents over to the National Archives when he left office, not take them to his resort in Florida.It is understandable if a few documents were packed away and taken by mistake, but not hundreds.
And you say I'm uninformed?

So, Biden should simply claim he knew nothing, (a somewhat simple lie to tell, no?) and then you think he's guilty of nothing except sheer ignorance in a president who is so reckless with national security that he had no knowledge that ANY of those top secret documents he moved from place to place over 6 years, huh?Misty » 16 Jan 2023, 6:43 pm » wrote: ↑ If the documents were removed by mistake, no legal action will likely be taken, since he self reported and turned them over to the National Archives as soon as they were discovered.

Trump was already cooperating with National Archives, so why the dramatic, unprecedented raid?
8/9/22 BY CHRISTINE DOUGLASS-WILLIAMS
It is peculiar that Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence was dramatically raided at this particular time, in a stunningly unprecedented act by the FBI, when Nat. Archives had already inventoried the contents of Trump’s boxes back in February. The National Archives was quoted as stating in Feb. that it was “in the process of inventorying the contents of the boxes,” and also insisted that the process was “part of a MUTUAL ongoing effort to retrieve presidential documents, not a raid.”
Trump Says DOJ, FBI Asked Him To Put Lock On Door Leading To Documents In Early June
Daily Wire By Hank Berrien 8/10/22
President Trump on Wednesday claimed that the DOJ and the FBI had asked his legal team in early June to put an extra lock on the door to the room where boxes of documents reportedly marked as classified were stored.Trump contended in a statement on Truth Social the feds saw the boxes at his home at Mar-a-Lago 2 months before the dramatic raid. That claim could call into question why the government agents would need to use such heavy-handed tactics to seize documents they knew about.“They were shown the secured area, and the boxes themselves,” Trump wrote. “Then on Monday, without notification or warning, an army of agents broke into Mar-a-Lago, went to the same storage area, and ripped open the lock that they had asked to be installed.

PS. Remember the last time you guys ranted about the AL comment I told you the original tracks had it crossing FL and heading to the Gulf. In a northwest direction? Look at the map and see where AL is. Seems to me you just down your own argument.

And despite knowing that he's so carelessly inept at his job, you're still completely comfortable with such a demented imbecile as your president, and would be delighted to vote for his senile *** again next year, right?
Did you ever wonder what was in those specific documents that have now turned up in his garage and in other unsecure locations? Because I'd bet they're evidence of the crimes he and Obama committed in spying on the Trump campaign (a felony), or relate to the DNC actions that hired Russians to create the Steele dossier that Hillary bought and paid for that's been proven (another felony), or any of the proven crimes committed by FBI criminals McCabe, Strozk, Page, or Brennen?
Here's the proof you required regarding what was done AFTER Trump gave his full cooperation and offered the FBI to take anything they wanted PRIOR to raiding his house and breaking down the door?
