News broke late yesterday that a search of the president’s home in Wilmington, Delaware, uncovered additional classified documents from Joe Biden’s time as vice president, stored unsecured in the family garage and separately in another room of the house. And I still haven’t stopped laughing.
Since August of 2022, when the FBI launched an unprecedented raid on former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home, the entirety of the anti-Trump universe insisted — insisted — that the recently departed commander-in-chief’s possession of documents marked classified was a big f-ing deal.
Never mind that Trump had declassification authority as the president of the United States, or that the documents were stored at his home under the watchful eye of his Secret Service protection. Ignore too the fact that the National Archives could have worked with Trump to coordinate the storage of the documents under the technical possession of the government, but at a location of the former president’s choosing, just as was done with former President Barack Obama.
But because the loony left couldn’t resist one more sequel in their get-Trump franchise, as Trump exited the Oval Office, a backbench bureaucrat at the National Archives launched another hoax meant to finally, finally destroy Trump. Several leaks and a year-plus later, the plot culminated in the raid of Trump’s home followed by the appointment of a special counsel to investigate Trump.
And because the National Archives and the Biden administration went nuclear against Trump for possessing documents at Mar-a-Lago marked classified, they have no option but to pretend to treat Joe Biden’s possession of classified documents in an equally serious way. So the National Archives referred the matter to the Department of Justice, just as it had with Trump, even though when it was Secretary of State Hillary Clinton mishandling classified documents, no criminal referral followed.
Likewise, Attorney General Merrick Garland directed a U.S. attorney to investigate Biden’s mishandling of the classified documents, to create the impression of equal justice under the law. Of course, given Garland’s appointment of a special counsel to investigate Trump, a plain ol’ ordinary U.S. attorney doesn’t level up, and for that, the attorney general is already receiving heat.
But the heat comes from the hypocrisy, not the gravity of the situation.
The Biden classified documents scandal is not a serious scandal. The botched withdrawal from Afghanistan is a serious scandal. Biden’s refusal to faithfully execute his duties as president of the United States by securing the southern border is a serious scandal. The Biden family pay-to-play escapades are a serious scandal. And the weaponization of the FBI and the intelligence community to interfere in the 2020 election and hand Biden the presidency is a serious scandal. This is not.
Laughable. Delicious. Outrageous. It is all those things and becomes more so by the day, with news that more classified documents are reposed in a residential garage, in addition to the closet at a D.C. think tank. And the story just becomes funnier the more the corrupt press tries to distinguish Biden’s possession of classified documents from Trump’s because Biden himself on video declared the possession of classified documents in Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home to be “just totally irresponsible.”
But a garage, Joe? Seriously? And is not knowing there were classified documents there, as Biden claims, any better?
The bottom line here is simple. This entire scandal is a joke. And now, thanks to the get-Trump franchise, irresponsible Biden will be forever cast as a laughingstock — and so will the propagandists in the press.
Kamala is laugh-uh.. cackling now.
Biden is like an autistic nine year old child.
The one thing the leftist voter will not stand for is interference in the process of destroying Donald Trump.
The left embraces all manner of lies and criminality to politically take Trump off the chess board.
This self cutting we are witnessing is the leadship on the left disconnecting Biden from the loyalty of their smarmy base.
Biden was set up to take the fall for doing the unforgivable, derailing the Trump classified documents hoax.
We can see the tactics, but the strategy is unclear.
Suffice it to say when we all find out it will be a head smacking “of course, why didn’t I see that” moment.
The turd polishers we’re out in full force this morning.
i just have a sneaking suspicion it’s all a smokescreen to cover-up something even worse done by the biden regime. It’s very odd that the left woudl even come out admitting biden had the documents- seems like they woulda hushed it up and sneaked them all back into their rightful places before anyone caught on- knowing that their loyal lackeys wouldn’t rat them out-
I’m sure this has been said elsewhere but not here today.
This is an intentional discovery. With all the Hunter coverups, etc nothing would be ‘out’ if they didn’t want it.
Right after Jan 20th, biden will step aside and kamala will attempt to start her 10 year rule and country destruction.
it sure is turning into a crap-fest- that’s for sure-
What’s the significance of Jan 20th?
lol- it had been said here before- 6 seconds before your post lol
We have criminal idiots voted into positions of power by useful idiot democrat voters.
In the Book of Esther, Hamon built scaffolding to hang all of the Jews. He ended up being the only one hung on them.
I think we are witnessing a version of this
Under the 22nd Amendment, if the president dies, resigns, etc, and there’s less than 2 years to go into his term, the VP serves out the term and can be elected twice in her own right. If Biden were to exit before 1/20, Kamala could only be re-elected once
The one thing the leftist voter will not stand for is interference in the process of destroying Donald Trump.I've rewritten your post to be a bit more accurate:
Great article!
👍
Jan 20th is inauguration day. I’ve just heard that day cited for this possibility. Maybe 1/20 is irrelevant, maybe it takes some clock under 10 years so in 6 she qualifies again. Dunno
Bingo — 2 year clock
IMHO Biden was a laughingstock before this even happened.
