Comments on: Now Biden gets his very own special counsel

Let me take a wild guess; if impartial investigators examined the files possessed by the Clinton’s or Obama’s (either at their homes or offices) they would find all sorts of classified documents.

Point of correction: it should be “marked classified documents”. No way to prove the documents a former POTUS has is still classified if they say otherwise, unless the documents date from after they left office.

Not really a laughing matter; but sort of funny – watching that clip that Biden sort of defended where the documents were found because it was in the locked garage next to his Corvette which he keeps in a locked garage.

The documents at Mar a Lago were locked up, too. And even inspected by the feds who recommended an additional lock.

But also, you can’t claim the Mar a Lago documents were still classified, since as POTUS Trump had unlimited authority to declass them.

it is a shame Congress gave its Constitutional authority to do so to the bureaucracy

Is that what happened? I think it was more that the executive branch inherently has the powers of enforcement, and the special prosecutor thing was a way to show some “independence” in the investigation.

The root of our problem lies with human behavior. Our system of government only really works with a virtuous culture.

At some point, perhaps we will realize this appointing of special prosecutors by unelected bureaucrats to investigate the elected office holder subverts democracy. It is not that the elected official shouldn’t be investigated, but it is a shame Congress gave its Constitutional authority to do so to the bureaucracy. In a sane world, Congress would be looking into this to determine the reasonableness of the entire classification system as well as the potential crimes of the official.

Let’s not forget about Hank Johnson’s Plantation theory of the crime.

Oh well, that makes it okay, since he keeps his Corvette locked in the garage we know that the documents were safe then! (snarky off)

I’d like to say that this claim that is was okay since the garage was locked is a sign of his senility; except he seems to have had this kind of chutzpah his whole life.

This clip of Biden talking about a locked garage also reminds me of when Hillary “joked” about wiping the computer clean with a cloth. Or when her husband claimed to have smoked pot; but he didn’t inhale!

Just how stupid do they think we are that we cannot see through their garbage? This kind of nonsense galls me as much as their crimes!

A couple of years ago, I would have assumed this was satire.
Now I had to check the source to make sure.

And the Chinese spies had access to the Penn think tank closet.

Now all we need is to get a Ukrainian on the Wilmington house staff.
