Biden has no regrets about his handling of the classified documents — 19 Comments

  1. It is noteworthy that ever more intelligent conservatives are beginning to imagine this convenient finding of more and more “classified” documents as the opening gambit by the “Deep State” in the dethroning of the senile buffoon whom it helped to install during 2020’s rigged election. The most frightening speculation revolves around the ultimate puller of strings and around the possible preferred candidate, viz. the wife of the man who once promised a “fundamental transformation” of the nation.

  2. No regrets, but not understanding French I can hear the heartbreak in her expressive voice.

    We have heartbreak over what is happening in our country. And plenty of regrets.

  3. Quite a voice, Piaf. One forgets how nasal French is.

    So, classified documents were in an office which was not guarded by Secret Service, and in a house which was not guarded by Secret Service, for three years and more. Biden and his renegade son and probably his questionable brothers and son-in-law were in the house during those years.

    Does he realize what he’s saying when he says “No regrets?”

  4. I agree that this is the first step in removing the senile buffoon before the 2024 campaign. The comparison to Trump is actually helpful to Biden or at least less harmful than his true record of corruption. The Chinese bought and paid for him and his tacky family.

  5. His arrogance and cockiness is based on his belief, cognitive decline notwithstanding, that whatever the actual facts of the document imbroglio may be, the deep state and MSM will whitewash the details.

    This *might* be misplaced; which, due to his cognitive decline, he doesn’t understand; he is protected because he is useful. That is the sole reason. The second it is decided he is no longer useful, there will be no hesitation to bring him down. I don’t think we are at that point yet, but we’re getting closer.

    Democrats, the MSM and the deep state (redundant) are well aware of the following:

    1. Slo Joe is unpopular
    2. Trump is even more unpopular
    3. Even with the massive thumb on the scale they will provide, Slo Joe is unlikely to win in 2024 unless Trump is the GOP nominee.

    BUT

    4. Trump is fading. Yes he’s still the odds on favorite for the GOP nomination, but by no means a guarantee.
    5. DeSantis has a very good shot at the nomination. Indeed, were Trump to quietly withdraw, DeSantis would likely cruise to the nomination.
    6. Even if he has to fight a bitter, bruising and protracted battle with Trump to get the nomination, even with all of the institutional blockades he will inevitably face, DeSantis would likely mop the floor with Slo Joe.

    Conclusion: It might be necessary to remove Slo Joe from contention sooner rather then later. There’s plenty of messy cleanup work to do beyond that (i.e. artfully and delicately brushing Harris out of the way and finding a front runner to anoint), so there’s a limited window.

    To me, that’s why this story has as many legs as it does. It provides the elite the foundation for a Plan B. Whether Plan B will ultimately be implemented remains to be seen

  6. We are going to find there’s nothing there because the Sundowner administration is investigating it and is going to find there is nothing there.
    As LI points out why were they looking in Hunter’s garage for records?
    Was it noted, Box D with x,x,any y documents are being stored next to the Corvette.?
    Starting to think this is a MacGuffin

  7. Neo says, “This one’s for you, commenter ‘huxley’ and student of French”:

    I’m surprised that huxley hasn’t been drawn to Piaf already; here’s another for him– Piaf’s big hit of 1959, “Milord.” “Milord” is about the feelings of a lower-class “girl of the port” who develops a crush on an elegantly attired upper-class British traveler (“milord”), whom she has seen walking the streets of the town several times. “Milord” was the only song of Piaf’s that became an international hit.

    Allez venez, Milord
    Vous asseoir à ma table
    Il fait si froid dehors
    Ici, c’est confortable
    Laissez-vous faire, Milord
    Et prenez bien vos aises
    Vos peines sur mon cœur
    Et vos pieds sur une chaise
    Je vous connais, Milord
    Vous ne m’avez jamais vue
    Je ne suis qu’une fille du port
    Une ombre de la rue . . .

    I hope huxley enjoys the song, and perhaps it will provide a new nickname for JoJo– Milord!

  8. Peter Doucy asks, Why after three years were Biden’s lawyers searching those residences?

    At the very least, this is an indication that Biden will not be the 2024 democrat presidential nominee.

  9. It gets better: Hunter’s laptop contains a photo of “a box labeled ‘Important Doc’s + Photos’ [that] was left unsealed on a table ahead of a child’s birthday party in the Delaware home where the 80-year-old president has been discovered to have stashed sensitive government records . . . . Another image on the infamous laptop reveals that Hunter Biden apparently made more than 160 trips to the sprawling lakeside house in just 52 days during the same time he was involved in controversial business dealings with a Chinese energy conglomerate — and while the home contained the discovered classified documents.”

    Photo of the unsealed ratty-looking cardboard box at the link: https://nypost.com/2023/01/20/beat-up-box-of-important-docs-was-out-in-open-at-joe-bidens-house-laptop-reveals/

    You’d think the Bidens could afford a nice new FedEx or Amazon box for stashing government documents.

  10. Let’s face it, Joey Papers is still around because he has proven useful to the Party Machinery. He was handy to put in as an Eastern Establishment Democrat VP to Obama’s Chicago Machine candidacy. He’s been given a pass for every mis-step, every mis-remembered imaginary experience, every gaffe, every fumble, and every bald-faced lie and outright fabrication that he’s ever uttered, and there are so many of them that it would be hard to list them.

    The only time he’s been held to account was in the last century, when his plagiarism and his outright lies about scholarships and athletic accomplishments and class standings were called out by the Mainstream Media. Not his colleagues, not his Party – the Press, back when they still had at least some shreds of respectability. Of course – that was then, and this is now.

    So it’s not surprising that the big reveal about the Biden Papers seems to carry an implied gravitas that is bigger than the simple story. With Trump, it’s all hot air that will die out tomorrow, the Crisis of the Century, of the week. But with Biden, the simple fact that it’s being reported at all, with the Legacy MSM such as it is, a mouthpiece of the Powers That Be – well, that’s significant isn’t it? Maybe Joey’s being given the message that his Pay Back is paid back in full.

  11. All this is BS. Since when do you send lawyers to clean out an office. There is so much smoke around this, I believe the truth is much, much worse.

  12. @ Geoffrey > “Peter Doucy asks, Why after three years were Biden’s lawyers searching those residences?”

    A lot of people have asked, and I think some are groping toward the same conclusion that AesopSpouse gave me this morning:
    There was a great worry at Biden Inc., well-founded, that some kind of incriminating documents reflecting Joe’s connections to Hunter’s business deals were in among Joe’s documents.
    The lawyers, if encountering those, could dispose of them discretely, and would be protected by attorney-client privilege from speaking about what they found.
    AFAIK, there are not yet any subpoenas out that would make their destruction illegal on the face.
    However, destroying classified documents IS illegal (even if your name is Clinton).
    Without an iron-clad belief that there was zero possibility that their actions would ever be discovered (and nothing is iron-clad in politics, even for Democrats), they weren’t willing to take that long a fall for Biden.

    Now, leaking the discovery to the press about the documents after the elections is a totally different kettle of rotten apples.

  13. For anyone interested, the Piaf video commenters have given (severally) the French lyrics, a “singable” English version, and a side-by-side that looks like a literal translation. Also some interesting information about the song itself, which puts the narrative into an intriguing context:

    “Piaf dedicated his recording to the Foreign Legion. Indeed at the time of the recording, France was engaged in the Algerian War (1954–1962). The Legion, which followed the putsch of the generals of April 21, 1961 against General de Gaulle, adopted the song at this time. The song remains popular at the Legion. It has also been taken up as an anthem by supporters of French Algeria.”

  14. “his” is a typo at the source for “this,” unless Madame Piaf was hiding something from us…..

    Historical note: there was a famous French diplomat, spy, and soldier of the 18th century who “retired” and lived the rest of his life as if he were a woman.

    (Superficial, and marred by the use of the abominable first-person “they” along with continued reliance on debunked accounts of D’Eon’s spying in Russia as a female.)

    Oddly, Wikipedia’s more accurate article is relatively pronominally restrained, for the leftist site.

  15. Lenny Bruce had a routine on adultery, “Deny everything! Even if they have pictures, deny it!”

  16. Sorry I missed this topic when it was fresh from the oven. (I usually enter the blog via an RSS aggregator. I only see topic titles and I am so sick of Biden.)

    I have heard Piaf including “Non, je ne regrette rien.” While she is clearly magnificent, hers is a different sound than I’m currently fixating on. I will get to her. She was small in stature but a giant in the French chanteuse tradition.

    I do appreciate her hyper-distinct pronunciation and lord, those French Rs! I’m trying to figure those out and the French negatives.

  17. Re: “Milord”

    PA+Cat:

    In 1967 the Stones did “Back Street Girl,” an acoustic ballad, describing a similar situation, only from the viewpoint of the upper-class Brit.

    I wonder if Mick Jagger was influenced by Piaf’s song. It was one of her later hits (1959) so I imagine he would have heard it.

    “Back Street Girl” even has an accordion like “Milord,” though not the same honky-tonk feel. I can’t think of any other Stones songs with accordion.

  18. No doubt a song of homage.
    But perhaps there’s more to it than that.
    Jagger had a crush on Hardy.
    She brushed him off.
    (Not sure he was used to that. He must’ve been shocked…)

  19. Barry Meislin:

    Francoise Hardy brushed Jagger off! You made my day. Hardy was quite crushable.

    Now that I’ve been listening to French music, I can hear its influence on British and American music, though for the latter, only as far as the Northeast.
