Former FBI official: Similarities between Biden and Hillary Clinton reports ‘nauseating’
The Hill ^ | 02/10/2024 | FILIP TIMOTIJA

Posted on 02/10/2024 11:07:59 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe argued Friday that the special counsel’s report on President Biden’s retention of classified documents while vice president has “nauseating similarities” with findings from the agency’s 2016 investigation into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s emails.

While special counsel Robert Hur’s 388-page report, released Thursday, found Biden “willfully” kept the documents after leaving the White House, no charges were brought against the president. Hur, in his release, remarked that Biden is “a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory,” which has drawn scrutiny from Democrats and the White House.

Both ChiComjoe and Hellary should have been indicted, tried, convicted, and sentenced for giving aid and comfort to the domestic and foreign enemies of the United States.

They cannot keep comparing Biden and Trump gaffes and say the two men are the same mentally.

Otherwise they will have to admit Trump shouldn’t be prosecuted for documents either.

McCabe is such an insufferable cocky little toad. He must have been beat up a lot in school.

There is a survey at the link.

Please choose that you are “not worried at all” about Biden’s mental state.

We want him on the ticket.

We can lie to these jerks—and win in November.

True, but she has a criminal instinct second to none.

Erased incriminating evidence and got away with it. (Which seems far worse than an ex-Prez hanging on to old documents)

Which is only half as “nauseating” as the corruption and bureaucratic corruption at the FBI and DOJ.

And another issue which gets overlooked is that Trump was the president, while Biden had these classified documents dating to his time as vice president and senator.

The president has different legal rights and obligations regarding documents than other elected officials do.

The situation with Biden reminds me a lot of James Comey and Hillary. Comey laid out a series of legal violations by Hillary , but then said in spite of this strong evidence of illegal actions, that no reasonable prosecutor would take the case.

With Biden , the report also indicates strong evidence of illegality, but recommends that no action be taken because Joe is elderly and forgetful. The implication being that no reasonable prosecutor would take the case.

It sure looks like there is a different standard for prominent Democrats compared to Trump or Republicans.

Probably none of the powers that be care about the court of public opinion on such prosecutions.

I made this exact same observation the moment the Hur report was released and reported here on FR.

Comey’s statement about “No reasonable prosecutor brining charges against Clinton” was such a travesty. It wasn’t his call to make and he should not be able to decide to NOT bring charges against her.

It’s the same today with Hur.

If they claim a (D) after their name, they’re a criminal. That’s blatantly clear by now. Anyone with a (R) after their name is more than suspect, too.

And? They. Don’t. Care.

We. Are. On. Our. Own!

Mophead spox tried defending the puppet’s gaffes as ‘misspeaking’ the other day, so they’ve destroyed the comparison (but I’m sure they’ll keep trying).

That’s funny, I certainly don’t see him as sympathetic or well-meaning. Politics aside he strikes me a mean-spirited, vulgar old man with a temper.

The FBI is just another tentacle of the DNC just as the national lamestream “media” is. Democrats are immune from going to jail.

"No reasonable prosecutor" would indict Democrats is the message being sent.

>> Biden is “a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory,”

Since the end of his VOTUS early 2017?

"no reasonable prosecutor", THE SEQUEL

It was NOT the FIB's decision as to whether a prosecution is reasonable or not. THAT'S THE DOJ'S DECISION, BUT THE FIB SWIPED THAT RESPONSIBILITY AND GOT AWAY WITH IT.

Here we go AGAIN, but with a twist.
