Sorry, I should have put this in Breaking News, especially given the “willful” portion of what Biden did.

Thank you for the consideration of moving it to Breaking News.

And not only willfully retained, but willfully disclosed.

Jack Smith I’m sure is not happy.

I am sure the Republicans in the Senate will talk about what an injustice it is.

“Mr. Biden would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory,”

That's who we need for president; an elderly man with a poor memory who constantly talks with dead people.

Biden was an ex-VP at the time.
So he cannot claim any kind of presidential immunity.

But he can claim Democrat immunity. That’s even better!

Is the word “disclosed” the word DOJ uses for democRATs when they really mean “sold”?

I think what saved his ass was he cooperated. Someone else didn’t.

My God, Hur & Co. are going with THIS for his treasonous activity?
The report says investigators found Biden’s “memory was significantly limited” when they conducted interviews with the president. Even in recordings from 2017 of conversations between Biden and his ghostwriter, Mark Zwontizer, Biden was “often painfully slow, with Mr. Biden struggling to remember events and straining at times to read and relay his own notebook entries.

Investigators thus found it “would be difficult to convince a jury that they should convict him – by then a former president well into his eighties – of a serious felony that requires a mental state of willfulness.”

"Mr. Biden would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory,” the report said, adding that Biden “is someone for whom many jurors will want to identify reasonable doubt.”

Yet, this "well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory" is PRESIDENT of the USA? All of those assertions are prima facie evidence that the 25th Amendment should be invoked TODAY.

This is so reminiscent of Comey's statement that "No reasonable prosecutor would bring charges agains H Clinton."

If it is Trump statute of limitations doesn’t matter! we will just temporarily extend it so someone can file a suit against him and then railroad him.

If it is Trump charge him with felonies for retaining documents

If it is Trump charge him with felonies for investigating the election

If it is Republicans call it insurrection

If it is Biden - you can embezzle millions, keep documents, turn your justice department on the opposition, give money to aid our enemies and encourage the BLM riots and it is all AOK.
