Ex-CIA Lawyer Joseph B. Sweeney explains the inner workings of how the deep state protected democrat party interests in an effort to stop Trump.
For many that will be insufficient as far as what is discussed in the video. However, I am an older man whose health is not stellar, and for me it is impossible for me to take notes for a 2 hour discussion.
If you want to watch it, then watch it, if you don't then I understand.
I will say that it is very informative & exposes how this raid was as corrupt as you imagined, and perhaps even more so.
Biden was hoarding & stealing classified documents for more than 50 years, and they were scattered around his home, while Trump's documents were stored in a room at Mar-a-Lago. Like I said it is around 2 hours in length.
There is a lot of other very interesting information revealed as well.
Ex-CIA Lawyer (Joe Sweeny) Reveals TRUTH about Trump Raid and MORE
they weren’t just at Bidens home they were at a university program funded by China.
U of Penn’s “Biden Center” where classified papers were found is a Biden patronage mill
By Isabel Vincent, Jan. 11, 2023, nypost.com
The Ivy League Biden think tank where lawyers found classified materials linked to the Obama White House is a patronage mill for the Biden administration, raising suspicions among critics that its establishment attracted tens of millions in donations from anonymous Chinese donors.
The Department of Justice is probing how “a small number” of classified documents from President Biden’s years as vice president ended up at the Washington, DC, think tank that bears his name, the White House confirmed Monday. A second batch of papers was found at an additional location, it was reported Wednesday.
The University of Pennsylvania received more than $30 million from Chinese donors shortly after the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement, which functioned as an office for Joe Biden before he was elected president, was announced in 2017, according to public records.
The Penn Biden Center — the Ivy League think tank where lawyers found classified materials linked to the Obama White House — is a patronage mill for the Biden administration.
The Biden center, located in Washington, DC, is affiliated with the University of Pennsylvania and critics suspect that its establishment attracted tens of millions in donations from anonymous Chinese donors for the school.
“The Penn Biden Center is a dark-money, revolving-door nightmare where foreign competitors like China donated millions of dollars to the university so that they could have access to future high-ranking officials,” said Tom Anderson, director of the Government Integrity Project at the Virginia-based National Legal and Policy Center.
The University of Pennsylvania raked in a total of $54.6 million from 2014 through June 2019 in donations from China, including $23.1 million in anonymous gifts starting in 2016, according to public records.
Most of the anonymous donations came after the university officially announced in February 2017 that it would create the academic center named for Biden, whose term as vice president under Barack Obama had just ended. In addition to leading the think tank, Biden was named a professor at the school.
It was reported Wednesday that a second batch of confidential documents were found at an additional location.
Several people once associated with the Penn Biden Center now have key positions in the Biden administration.
The Ivy League institution received $15.8 million in anonymous Chinese gifts in 2017 and one $14.5 million donation in May 2018, three months after the center opened, records show.
“The Penn Biden Center has never solicited or received any gifts from any Chinese or other foreign entity,” said a spokesman for the University of Pennsylvania. “In fact, the University has never solicited any gifts for the Center. Since its inception in 2017 there have been three unsolicited gifts (from two donors) which combined total $1,100. Both donors are Americans. One hundred percent of the budget for the Penn Biden Center comes from university funds.”
The center does not list any of its fellows or administrators on its website, and does not have separate financial filings. It operates under the auspices of the University of Pennsylvania with a mission of engaging “fellow citizens in shaping this world, while ensuring the gains of global engagement are widely shared,” according to its website.
The latest on President Biden’s classified docs scandal
Biden calls classified docs ‘stray papers,’ blames aides who packed up White House office
Hunter Biden’s shady biz partner handled transfer of Joe’s Senate papers to Delaware
National Archives blocked from revealing Biden classified docs find by WH or DOJ.......
Meanwhile, former fellows and administrators of the Penn Biden Center now have key positions in the Biden administration.
Michael Carpenter, the former managing director of the Penn Biden Center, was named the US ambassador to the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, based in Vienna, in 2021. Secretary of State Antony Blinken also briefly served as director of the think tank before joining the Biden administration in January 2021. Before that, Blinken was a policy adviser for Biden’s 2020 campaign.
Juan Sebastian Gonzalez, a senior fellow at the center from April 2018 to September 2020, is special assistant to the president and the national security director for the Western Hemisphere at the White House, according to his LinkedIn page.
The sensitive material at the center was discovered by Biden’s personal lawyers on Nov. 2, 2022, while they “were packing files housed in a locked closet to prepare to vacate office space,” according to a statement from Richard Sauber, special counsel to the president.
Sauber said Biden used the Washington, DC, office space from “mid-2017 until the start of the 2020 campaign” in April 2019.
Michael Carpenter, the former managing director of the Penn Biden Center, was named the US ambassador to the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe in 2021.
After Biden was elected president in 2020, the center said it would operate “completely independent of the Biden administration.”

Biden: ‘I want to’ return to Penn after presidency
Biden said he “want[s]” to resume his involvement in U of Penn’s “Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement” after leaving the White House.
And here’s why.................
WHYY-PBS reported U of Pennsylvania made a $100 million contribution to the Phila School District.
Is the U of Penn’s donation Chinese money?
Is Penn getting rid of evidence to save Biden’s sorry ***?
WHYY.com / / FR Posted on 12/6/2020 by Kid Shelleen
U of Pennsylvania suddenly made a gargantuan $100 million contribution to the School District of Philadelphia.......(Excerpt) Read more at whyy.org ...
From Solomon’s report: The complaint, filed by the National Legal and Policy Center, says that over the past three years, the university has (admitted to accepting around) $22 million in anonymous funding from Chinese sources. That’s out of a total of more than $70 million from Chinese donors during that time, the NLPC said.
Those significant funds, including the anonymous amounts, rolled in after the Biden Center was announced in early 2017 and launched in February 2018. The center is located in downtown Washington, D.C. Federal records show that the University of Pennsylvania has received significant donations from Communist China since the opening of the Biden Center.
One 2018 donation alone totals $14.5 million; it is listed as “anonymous” in federal records. The NLPC alleges the university may have violated federal law in accepting those anonymous monetary donations from Communist China. The Higher Education Act mandates schools report the national origins of any donations above $250,000 although not necessarily the individual names of donors themselves. [End]
This serves as just one more reminder that Biden, his son (and his brother) have long been in the pockets of Communist Chinese interests. The stark reality facing our country today is thatall of the gains President Donald Trump has made through the sheer force of his will in terms of U.S./China relations and trade policy will be immediately reversed the day after Biden assumes office.
KEEP IN MIND.....virtually all U.S. antibiotics and PPE are sourced through China at some point along their supply chains....... There are trillions of dollars at stake, and Creepy Uncle Joe wants to ensure his family continues to get its fair share out of Communist China.
====================REFERENCE=====================
It has recently come to light that US politicians are sending Communist China vast amts of tax dollars to supposedly buy (cough) “Covid masks.”Cali Gov Newsome was nabbed sending China a billion tax dollars. Why? Because the Chinese are using the Covid orders to launder the tax dollars for the salivating pols.

Classified documents from Biden’s time as Obama’s VP discovered in Biden’s private
office at U of Penn’s “Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement”
Was the safety and security of American families undermined?
Biden used the Penn-affiliated global think tank as his main office in Washington after he departed his vice presidency under former President Barack Obama in 2017.
At the same time, Hunter Biden was influence-peddling and collecting big bucks thru a myriad of money-laundering LLC’s.
By Jamie Gangel, Marshall Cohen, Evan Perez and Phil Mattingly, CNN.com, Mon January 9, 2023
Several classified documents from President Joe Biden’s time as vice president were discovered last fall in a private office, Biden’s attorneys acknowledged Monday.
Attorney General Merrick Garland has asked the US attorney in Chicago to investigate the matter, a source familiar with the matter tells CNN, and congressional Republicans are also taking notice.
Biden’s lawyers say they found the government materials in November while closing out a Washington, DC-based office – the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement – that Biden used as part of his relationship with the University of Pennsylvania, where he was an honorary professor from 2017 to 2019.
Fewer than a dozen classified documents were found at Biden’s office, another source told CNN. It is unclear what the documents pertain to or why they were taken to Biden’s private office. Federal officeholders are required by law to relinquish official documents and classified records when their government service ends.
“The White House is cooperating with the National Archives and the Department of Justice regarding the discovery of what appear to be Obama-Biden Administration records, including a small number of documents with classified markings,” Richard Sauber, special counsel to President Biden, said in a statement.
“The documents were discovered when the President’s personal attorneys were packing files housed in a locked closet to prepare to vacate office space at the Penn Biden Center in Washington, D.C. The President periodically used this space from mid-2017 until the start of the 2020 campaign. On the day of this discovery, November 2, 2022, the White House Counsel’s Office notified the National Archives. The Archives took possession of the materials the following morning.”
“The discovery of these documents was made by the President’s attorneys,” Sauber added. “The documents were not the subject of any previous request or inquiry by the Archives. Since that discovery, the President’s personal attorneys have cooperated with the Archives and the Department of Justice in a process to ensure that any Obama-Biden Administration records are appropriately in the possession of the Archives.”
CBS News first reported on the documents.
Biden ignored shouted questions from reporters on the classified documents. A senior administration official traveling with Biden says the issue won’t be a distraction..
Biden recently said he wants to return to Penn’s “Biden Center” when he leaves office.

I can picture Joe now -— stretched out on his folding chair in the middle of the campus lawn, sleeping.
........as he rakes in the bucks.........
fl8r
Joseph Sweeney just wrote a book about it -— “Dangerous Injustice. How Democrats Weaponized DOJ To Protect Biden and Persecute Trump”.
I’ve read Biden had stashed documents at 5 to 7 locations.
I just did Google search for “how many places did biden keep classified documents”
I got plenty of responses, but all AP, WaPo, NPR, Politifact, Time.com, Wikipedia, factcheck.org, PBS, CBS, CNN, BBC. Not one worthy source.
wow and no indictment IIRC DOJ let his attorney do the “search”
Yes, that played prominently in the discussion.
REPORT OF THE IMPEACHMENT INQUIRY OF JOSEPH R. BIDEN JR., PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Majority Staff Report of the Committee on Oversight and Accountability
Committee on the Judiciary
Committee on Ways and Means
Prepared for the U.S. House of Representatives, 118th Congress, In accordance with H. Res. 918
August 19, 2024Separately, the Committees have gathered evidence that President Biden used his official position to conceal his mishandling of classified information as a private citizen. During his tenure as Vice President, Joe Biden removed highly sensitive classified documents from the White House, despite having no authority to do so. Documents with classified markings were later found at the Penn Biden Center, at his personal residence in a garage, and at the University of Delaware. The report of Special Counsel Robert Hur detailed how President Biden willfully retained classified material, shared it with a ghostwriter who was unauthorized to receive classified information, and utilized the classified information to draft a memoir for which he received an $8 million advance. The Special Counsel’s report, as well as the Committees’ inquiry, disclosed how President Biden caused White House employees to conceal his conduct and mislead the American people about his actions.

Nice find,
Documents with classified markings from the Obama admin were found
<><>at Penn’s “Biden Center,”
<><>at Biden’s personal residence in a garage,
<><>and at the U of Delaware transported there by Hunter Biden.
At the time Hunter was mooching off taxpayers, traveling free on Daddy’s VP plane,
w/ a SS detail, and making millions on influence-peddling deals.
Thanks Liz for your input.
thanx
“I can picture Joe now -— stretched out on his folding chair in the middle of the campus lawn, sleeping...”
..., next to a folding card table weighed down with classified documents and a “For Sale Cheap” sign.
The most obvious of it all…. The transfer of Top Secret materials! When the GSA employees “packaged the frame up” there should have been a listing of all the documents and signatures of transfers. We 100% know that it was not President Trump signing for all of this. Where are the chain of custody documents if these were indeed Top Secret documents? Who signed for them? This was a set up and a sham. I hope to God that Jack Smith reaps what he has sown. I pray that he and all of the evil co-conspirators get what they deserve in the future.
