CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin said Thursday on “Anderson Cooper 360” that voters will remember President Joe Biden calling Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi “the president of Mexico” in a press conference where he was addressing his age and memory after Special Counsel Robert Hur decided not to charge the president for keeping classified documents.
Hur said Biden was an “elderly man with a poor memory.”
Toobin said, “Mexico? Mexico? Where did that come from? I mean, that’s the only thing anyone is going to remember from this. You know, he was exonerated here, and I think it’s an easy call that he was exonerated, and I think legally he’s never had a problem with this because the issue of criminal intent was quite clearly absent in the Biden case and, certainly according to the accusations in the Jack Smith indictment, is very much present in the Trump case. I think they are very different and the report even spelled this out. But Mexico? I mean, politically, how do you explain that?”

If a GS-5 federal workers takes a file with social security numbers out of a Federal building they will be indicted and convicted of violating federal law.
“Criminal intent” will fail as a defense for them.
No he wasn’t. He was found to have illegally misappropriated and disclosed highly classified documents.
Tobin should have been a magician. Redirecting attention.
“Dagnabbit” is not an excuse.

Liberal media denies Biden has dementia. Nothing to see here. But the day they replace him, then they will say it was obviously troublesome he was confused.
Go have a fap, Jeffrey.
Depends on what the meaning of “is” is
Nothing but liars in the left wing media
And now the Dems are in panic mode. The emperor has no clothes, and now EVERYONE sees it. The fact is, the DNC is screwed. If they let things ride, Biden will try to prove (and if current events are any guide) and fail that he’s mentally competent. If they get rid of him? It will be chaos. Can you imagine a Harris administration? She’s less popular than Biden, and Trump will be able to make the case that neither one of them is fit for the job.
I wrote some time back:
Joe Biden will never get convicted of a crime because he clearly is demented and can use the Pinochet defense.
I think if I removed TS/SCI content from the SCIF I had duty in, even as an E-2, I would have gone to jail, then demoted, then dishonorably discharged.
Loobin Toobin understands about "the Only Thing Anyone Will Remember".
Fox News taking heads right after the presser said they thought Biden was going to drop out last night

Except now, a Jello Pudding pop has more functional brain cells. Biden is off the damn leash and nobody is probably in charge because official DNC Washington is probably in a panic as to what to do.
But I wouldn’t be surprised if Dean Phillips and RFK call for him to resign soon.
Yup—Schopenhauer perfectly described the way the mass media propaganda machine works:
“All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.”
They skip the step where they admit they were stupid and they were wrong and apologize for their insanity.
That was definitely a biggy.
Then the reporter says "He's exonerated," but only because the criminal said "I'm exonerated."
Right.
Intent is irrelevant as regards the Espionage Act.
