If only he had a compliant press that would refust to print them and ban any discussion of them as 'conspiracy theories' while at the same time smearing Trump by saying 'Trump is named in the Epstein documents' while not saying it's because he was being exonerated by witnesses in Maxwell's trial.

Oh wait, he does! Goody! That looked like a close one at first.

“Axios reported that Biden’s aides do not expect criminal charges as a result of the investigation, “

Of course not. They didn’t pick the prosecutor in order to execute justice on crimes so serious Biden would normally spend a few lifetimes in prison. They only go after innocent people.

As a senator and vp, it was illegal for Xia Bai Dung to have ANY classified documents.

What the Deep State wants are the documents related to Crossfire Hurricaine and Clinton's email server, which PDJT declassified.

Some are, either, missing or the DS fears they have been copied.

They show the scope of the perfidy and treason of the DS / Left and their coup against the President..

Biden's aides are concerned Trump's campaign could attempt to contrast the handling of the two investigations.

They might, they just might.

President Biden had classified documents in the garage of his Delaware home

PUBLISHED THURS, JAN 12 2023, by Dan Mangan, CNBC.com

KEY POINTS
Classified government documents from the Obama administration were found in a storage space in the garage of President Joe Biden’s Delaware home, Biden said.

The disclosure of that latest discovery comes three days after Richard Sauber, who is Biden’s special counsel, confirmed media reports that a first batch of classified documents from the Obama administration were found in an office that Biden used in a Washington think tank.

“As I said earlier this week, and by the way, my Corvette is in a locked garage, so it’s not like they’re sitting out on the street,” Biden said, referring to the second batch of documents.

The Department of Justice is investigating the situation.


Classified government documents from the Obama administration were found in a storage space in the garage of President Joe Biden’s Delaware home, Biden said Thursday.

The disclosure of that latest discovery comes three days after Biden’s special counsel, Richard Sauber, confirmed media reports that attorneys for the president found a first batch of classified documents from the Biden administration on Nov. 2 in an office that Biden had used as a private citizen at a Washington think tank.

Sauber issued a statement earlier Thursday detailing how and where the second batch of documents was found. He said that a “small number” of records with classified markings were found in the garage. Less than a dozen classified documents had been found in the first batch.

Soon afterward, Biden talked about the discovery with reporters.

“As I said earlier this week, and by the way, my Corvette is in a locked garage, so it’s not like they’re sitting out on the street,” Biden said, referring to the documents.

“People know I take classified documents and classified materials seriously,” Biden said. “I also said we’re cooperating, fully cooperated with the Justice Department’s review.”

The president said the DOJ was immediately notified about the latest discovery, “and we’re going to see how all this unfolds.”

Sauber on Thursday did not say what day the latest bunch of documents was found, but he did say that a search for government documents at Biden residences was completed “last night.”

Neither he nor Biden said why the White House did not reveal how and when the first batch of documents was found until two months after that happened.

“I think Congress has to investigate this,” House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., said after Biden spoke.

Former President Donald Trump, who is under criminal investigation for retaining classified government documents after he left office in early 2021, has suggested the DOJ kept quiet about the discovery of the Biden documents in order not to affect the midterm congressional elections on Nov. 3.

By law, presidents and vice presidents must turn over government records to the National Archives and Records Administration when they leave office. Trump had hundreds of classified documents and other government records at his residence at his Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach, Florida, which the FBI raided in August as part of the criminal probe.

The DOJ and the National Archives are investigating how and why Biden retained the documents after he completed two terms as vice president for President Barack Obama in January 2017.

NBC News reported later Thursday that multiple aides for Biden in the final days of the Obama administration have been interviewed by law enforcement officials in connection with that probe.

“The people who were boxing [up the vice presidential office] had no idea that there was anything in there that shouldn’t leave the White House,” a source familiar with the matter told NBC News. “There was no decision made to take certain documents that should have been presidential records or classified.”

Sauber, in his statement Thursday, said attorneys searched Biden’s residences in Wilmington and Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, after some unstated amount of time after lawyers for the president found those documents in November at the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement.

Those locations were ones “where files from his Vice-Presidential office might have been shipped in the course of the 2017 transition,” when Trump took office, Sauber said.

“The lawyers completed that review last night,” Sauber said.

“During the review, the lawyers discovered among personal and political papers a small number of additional Obama-Biden Administration records with classified markings,” Sauber said.

The lawyer added that all but one of those documents were found in a storage space in the garage of Biden’s Wilmington home.

The other document, which was a single page, “was discovered among stored materials in an adjacent room,” Sauber said. “No documents were found in the Rehoboth Beach residence.”

The lawyer said that the DOJ was “immediately notified” of the discovery of the documents in Wilmington, just as had been the case when the first batch of documents was found at the Penn Biden Center.


Correction: The FBI raided the Mar-a-Lago club in August. An earlier version misstated the month.

This is clearly a message to Hur to NOT include these pictures, if he wants to keep his cushy job. Don’t expect to see any.

And you think Pence, McConnell, and Ryan weren't in it up to their necks? Imagine if the GOP had backed Trump's play how different our history would have been.

Funny how the piece doesn’t mention that - as VP - Bide had NO RIGHT to be in possession of these documents. Period.

Hillary’s home brew server was the biggest security breach in the history of the country—and there were zero consequences.

This is a non-story.

The WH staff is snoozing comfortably right now.

The Democrats are going to have to decide soon, if they are still running with Biden. Their convention is five months away. But no matter who they go with, you can bet that there will be far more fraud in ‘24 than there was in 2020, because that’s the only way they can win. And they are counting on nothing being done about it, since no one has been held accountable for any of it for years. There is no way the Democrats and their evil minions can allow Trump to win. They will get rid of him one way or another.

If Biden was ever charged with crimes, he’d be declared mentally unstable, and not able to understand the charges brought against him, and that’s where it would all end.

This is nothing but a notice that Biden will NOT be charged. This is a planted story to let the sheeple know what is coming is a noting burger—as we expected—from the DOJ.

AND a minor point — as Senator and VP, he had NO AUTHORITY to have those documents at any of those locations. None.

Outstanding post! Good to know.

To hear the Biden Administration suffer even a question about Disclosure by his own corrupt Justice Department is amazing. To hear (reportedly) they might “FEAR” anything out of AG Garland is stunning.

Liz, how are they going to, first, rid themselves of Kamala the Mouth in order for Biden to then be removed, without making Speaker Johnson president by default?

Are they not on a short clock to come up with a candidate?

BACKSTORY U of Penn started receiving millions from Communist China in donations
right after UPenn established “The Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement” in DC.
U of Penn could not explain the sudden millions in Chinese donations.

As investigations threatened, PBS-TV reported UPenn up and gave....
unannounced and unasked.....a $100 million dollar lump sum to local Philly schools.

The Biden Center was also being investigated for unexplained Chinese donations.

Now, Rep. James Comer, of the House Oversight Committee, is zeroing in on “The UPenn Biden Center” in Washington, D.C., as part of the panel’s investigation into classified documents discovered in Biden’s former office at the DC Center. Comer laid it out in a letter to the U of Penn
President, and is specifically interested in learning:

<><>who had access to the Penn Biden Center,

<><>who has a “visitors’ log” of those who met with Biden at the think tank,

<><>the presence, if any, of “lawful security measures” WRT to viewing US classified documents

<><>who at UPenn has “security clearance” necessary to view Biden’s classified documents

<><>whether Chinese donations to “The Biden Center” were disguised payments for classified info.
