Classified documents from Biden's time as VP discovered in private office, source says


Thank for that.

I have to be suspicious because Chuck Grassley is involved. That man is a liar and a non-American. He sold out to Trump. He sold out America to serve Trump.

The fact that the site this is on belongs to Chuck Grassley pretty much destroys any and all validity.

Grassley is a fossil that should have been out of that office years ago.
 
How do you adjudicate intent?

By listing the actions a subject has taken that can demonstrate it was never an accident.

"Mr. Garland said he had personally approved the search after the failure of “less intrusive” attempts to retrieve material taken from the White House by Mr. Trump."

August 11, 2022

He said less intrusive, meaning nothing else worked. They sent the subpeona, and lawyer meetings, and letters with minimal requirements and still he denied a subpeona and continued giving NARA the runaround. If trump had complied, we never have had a raid. Trump could have handled like Joe did.
 
Hmm, no, you don't the truth of that at all. Once again you seem to know nothing factual about a topic you are commenting on.

You are fed so much bullshit in the right wing bubble, you don't even know or remember what is true and what isn't.



The story said it's correct.
Offers up a bunch of explanations and excuses.
No charges.
 
Trying to assert that Biden‘s mishandling of classified data is OK because Trump was ‘ickier’ is a ridiculous excuse.

The right is attacking Biden to distract the world from Trump's criminal behavior and their support of it.

The right is relying on res ipsa loquitur to accuse Biden of a crime in this case.

As taking documents is a crime of intent, and there is no evidence that Biden had any intent of retaining or taking any classified documents, the right's theory is flawed.

It's an obvious smear attempt.

The Biden family was hip deep in business with China. Heck, that UPENN received a lot of money from Chinese sources after Biden set up shop there.
Trump has a bank account in China and his daughter had her Chinese trademarks fast tracked while he was in office. Isn't that suspicous to you?
 
we also know these Biden classified documents was hidden from release until after midterm elections, and the more they look the more they find

Biden absolutely could have taken classified information and sold to China - who knows how many he took and where they are. We know more everyday

If we're going to extreme assume what Trump was doing, lets think tank similarly to Biden
This is a really unlikely motive. Trump is nothing but a big capitalist. He never cared about serving his country in any way, because, if he had cared, he had all the resources to go into any number of professional fields and get success. The only thing he wanted was money and things money could buy. We know this because he ended up using his resources to make money and he talked about it all the time.

Biden is a guy who always wanted to serve this democratic republic. He didn't make extraordinary efforts to get rich, though being in Congress and later the VP spot gave him opportunities he would surely have used, as a secondary side issue.

This difference is so obvious in the two men's biographies that the claim Biden could have sold classified into to China is beyond absurd,while the claim Trump could have sold such info to Russia is plausible.

Trump wanted to prevent the peaceful transfer of presidential power to Biden and even though he knew full well that he had lost the election and Biden hadn't stolen it, he persisted in lying that the Democrats had cheated. Biden certainly never did anything comparable - nor had any of the presidents in the US past no matter how awful they were.

So I for one can't possibly think about the two men similarly. One is a crude orange carnival barker, and the other, though imperfect, is an ordinary man with some degree of conscience and refinement.
 
I don't care who said it is correct. it's a debunked lie. I posted the debunk.

The story said it was correct.
They offered up a bunch of explanations and excuses for why Mrs. Clinton did what she did.
No charges.

Deleting her personal emails was authorized by the State Dept. She was SOS not some mob boss like your side like to claim. So no there were no charges for exercising her rights.

Hillary Clinton Was Allowed to Delete Personal Emails From Server: Justice Department

Hillary Clinton asserts that she had the right under government rules to decide which emails were private and to delete them.

Wake up. The archives requested the documents from Trump, because he'd taken enough of them for their absence to be notable. Nobody at the archives asked Biden for any unreturned documents, probably because the ones unreturned were few in number and unimportant enough in quality for their absence to be noticed. The Biden lawyers just found them and immediately told the archives and returned them.

This difference is so huge I can't believe you're missing it.

I probably need new glasses.

No. Trump placed tarrifs on China.
Basically told them that they are responsible for Mr. Kim.
 

I have reviewed the information and from what I can tell there is speculation and not much more.

The firm that Biden allegedly delt with is a private firm, and while this is suspicious, there is no proven link between it and the Chinese government.

Again, the Trumps were in bed with China and Ivanka had trademarks for her garbage fashions fast-tracked. This says quite a bit without saying much at all.

Again, I appreciate the non-pay wall access to the article.

Sorry, I think you forgot what lie you told.

No , she did not destroy any evidence or emails that were targets of the investigation.

That was a lie. You told it.

Let's just move on. The only thing worse than lying whataboutism is helping the whatabouter derail the thread.

Tariffs that Americans paid out of their own pockets and brought nothing but record trade deficits under his rule. Trump said Kim and him were "in love". That is how jealous he was of murderer Kim's absolute power.

America’s trade gap soared under Trump, final figures show

The U.S. trade deficit over the four years of President Donald Trump’s presidency soared to its highest level since 2008, despite his tough tariff tactics intended to bring it down, a new Commerce Department report showed on Friday.

The combined U.S. goods and services trade deficit increased to $679 billion in 2020, compared to $481 billion in 2016, the year before Trump took office. The trade deficit in goods alone hit $916 billion, a record high and an increase of about 21 percent from 2016.

Never said it was a good idea.
Not something China wants.
 
I lived in the TS/SCI world for more than a decade. My wife was a document control specialist. We understand the process. They let Biden, Clinton, Obama, Bush ...... slide. No question. The bullshit with Trump was 10,000% political no if ands or buts.
Don't care that your wife had a special position. You state that you are a conservative. I'd never believe any claim like this that a stated conservative made.

Trump is responsible for the SC saying that the 14th Amendment protection of personal rights to life, liberty, and property was never intended to apply to women, only to ex-slaves, as if half of the ex-slaves had not been women. The degree to which most conservative people cavalierly wrote off actual Constitutional rights of others is sufficient to make everything they say as suspect as if they were intentional enemies of the US and its Constitution.

If it weren't for Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger and their kind, no negotiation could be possible.
