Tommy Callahan Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 When that orange dude was pres, reporters would stump out and try to guess who is visiting him at his vacation spots. even forced him to release the logs from mar largo. But bidens weekly disappearing act gets no scrutiny. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty obvious that in order to become President, a candidate needs a significant percentage of the population to be completely and unabashedly hypocritical when it comes to how they view the actions of their candidate as opposed to the opposition. We're seeing those people post here over the last 24 hours. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledInIllinois Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 WWTDD? I mean Joe Biden is currently POTUS... How hard would it have been for Joe's attorneys to just give him the documents. I mean, he's still POTUS and still has security clearance. Stick them back into the fold. No doubt that's what The Donald would have done. At least there's transparency with Biden. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Democrats Claim Biden's Classified Documents Scandal is 'Different,' but the Receipts Tell a Different Story In a somewhat comical turn of events, Joe Biden has found himself caught up in his own scandal surrounding the improper possession and handling of classified documents. That comes after the current president chastised Donald Trump last year for much the same thing, asserting that he didn’t understand how anyone could “be that irresponsible.” As reported, no less than 10 classified documents were found at the Penn Biden Center in an office used by the now-president before he entered the White House. Because the Penn Biden Center wasn’t even founded until 2018, it is clear that the documents were transported there during a period when Biden did not have the legal authority to have them. Naturally, Democrats and their press allies set out to move the goalposts. In fact, they’ve been uprooted and tossed into the sea at this point. According to them, what Biden did is “different” because, though he possessed the documents, he didn’t try to “obstruct” the National Archives from retrieving them. Here’s Sen. Dick Durbin playing that game. Of course, the documents were not “immediately” sent to the Archives. Rather, they were held for six years, moved at least twice, and were only reported after the 2022 election despite them being “found” beforehand. So is the standard now that it’s fine for someone to illegally possess classified documents as long as they turn them in when they feel like it? In this case, the timeline ensured minimum political fallout. To be frank, I don’t buy for a second that this was an accident. A person doesn’t accidentally take classified documents, move them multiple times, and lock them into a closet. This whole “oh, we just found these documents” line is highly suspicious. They “found” them just in time to wipe the slate clean after an election and before Biden announces his 2024, run? Yeah, I bet. Regardless, it is those on the left who have assured us that intent doesn’t matter in this case. The receipts are all there, and they are proving rather awkward. https://redstate.com/bonchie/2023/01/10/democrats-claim-bidens-classified-documents-scandal-is-different-but-the-receipts-tell-a-different-story-n686328 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do not have a right to physically possess any government documents you want, whether they are classified or not. Are you arguing that you can just go into a government building and take any documents you want so long as they aren’t classified? None of the statutes that Trump is being investigated for violating require the documents to be classified. I don’t think they even mention classification at all. The fact that some were classified underscores the potential danger of mishandling of government documents but is not very relevant to the legal jeopardy Trump is in.
