    Who has said anyone is comfortable with this?

    I am seeing plenty of democrats calling for an investigation and most will agree if he did something illegal then he should be impeached, removed and incarcerated.

    What is interesting how this is suddenly such a major issue to the extreme right wing.

    How many years do you believe someone should serve in prison for the removal of top secret documents and should an amplifier be used if they refused to give them back?

    Democrats can act all concerned and call for an investigation but they know it will just be a "nothing burger."

    Why are republicans more concerned with this than one with 10 times the documents with an individual that didn’t comply?

    Strange how all of a sudden RWers are concerned with classified documents in ex-officals' possession, when just 2 months ago they couldn't care less.

    Now, as I said before, I think that Biden did a REALLY stupid thing keeping all those documents, while at the same time criticizing Trump over it. He is giving the Dem party a bad name. No matter what the outcome of this, he shouldn't run in 2024.

    Sen. John Kennedy Digs Into The Enveloping Biden Classified Docs Scandal

    [​IMG]

    'The Biden White House has been spinning like tornadic wind after classified documents possessed by Joe Biden have been found at no less than three non-government properties (including his home in Wilmington, Delaware).'

    'Biden sitting there for his interview with 60 Minutes acting all snarky toward the former president while he knew damn good and well that he had classified documents he shouldn’t have.'

    [​IMG]

    Why was this covered up from Nov. 2 to the middle of January? Who was involved in the cover up?

    'What’s the role of the University of Pennsylvania Biden Center in all of this? The Penn Biden Center is not some normal Ivy League think tank. This was the D.C. hangout and clubhouse for Joe Biden and his people. Tens of millions of dollars from China were flowing into the University has gotten millions from China, and while the Penn Biden Center has denied that it got funding from China, we haven’t seen where they got their funding from. Who might have had access to the documents when they were at the Penn Biden Center?'

    [​IMG]

    'The documents Trump had were protected in a location guarded by the secret service. Not so with Biden. One of the places where Biden kept classified documents was heavily subsidized by the Communist Chinese. Not so with Trump.'

    Where is the National Archives in all this?” The National Archives couldn't shut up 'when it came to Trump, but in this case, hasn’t made any public statements. “You couldn’t have found them with a search party. We still haven’t heard from them.”'

    'Trump as president had the indisputable constitutional authority to classify and declassify information as he saw fit. Biden, as vice president, had no such power. Biden held the classified documents for years.'

    Did any member of Congress know about the existence and the cover up of Biden's, now three, illegal caches of classified documents?

    [​IMG]

    'The DOJ did not issue a subpoena, let alone secure a search warrant, and there has been no government search of any of Biden's offices or homes for documents.'

    Odd. My response to this overt and disgustingly racist psst were deleted. I guess racism gets a pass around these parts.

    The real question that should be asked is why Democrats all of a sudden think mishandling of classified documents by senior government officials is a non-story? From day one when we first heard about Trump having classified documents on his Maro-Lago property that is protected by SS Democrats and LSM immediately starting talking about criminal charges. It's not about how many documents each had but what the documents contained and because they are classified no one but a few who have the security clearance to view them and "the need to know" know what's information they contain. Just one classified document could be more troublesome than 300. So let's just separate the two on going investigations and stop trying to compare and contrast them.

    Who is saying this is a non-story? Most of the Democrats I have spoken with including several on this very forum have said there needs to be not only in investigation into Biden if the documents are in any way sensitive national security issues (which they likely are) but an investigation how these documents went missing and no one even noticed. Had the Biden team simply destroyed the documents — or worse — we would have likely never known.

    One of the biggest issues — besides the documents themselves — is he didn’t comply with a subpoena and had to have a ****ing raid for the government to get those documents back. How can none of you grasp this?

    We can do both.

    As I said, from day one Trump was treated like a criminal when it was first learned he had classified documents in his home. Before a subpoena was issued. The FBI knew Trump had those documents and asked they be placed in a more secure location. The documents were secured. How has Biden been treated by the media? I hear nothing but excuses and comparisons of the two not being the same. There is still much to learn about the documents and why they ended up there in the first place, what they contain and why we are just learning about this now when the DOJ knew about them November 2? Many believe there is more to this than we are being told otherwise a Special Counsel would not be assigned to look into this so quickly. How long did it take the AG to assign a Special Counsel to Trump's case?

    You mean how the GOP started the dark money nightmare in politics with 501c4 and c3 organizations to funnel money to politicians in an effort to avoid the Campaign Finance Reform efforts? Now both parties do this because that is how politics is done now.

    But for China, it was fully disclosed by the University of Pennsylvania. But it did not go to Biden or his son. It went to the University, most likely to make sure their top academics can attend the university, especially among their rich and powerful business families in the PRC, under pseudo names of course.

    trump is a criminal

    They are similar only that they have classified documents. Everything else is dissimilar. Both need to be fully investigated

    Saying they are not the same isn’t saying that it isn’t severe. Nuance

    Which is why many people on the left are calling for an investigation and garland has already appointed a special investigator. Look how long it took to do that with the last one and none of you complained then.

    Lol, yup

    The people that have been screaming trump did nothing wrong — ever, that the Capitol insurrection was antifa but also patriots and are being unfairly prosecuted and that there was massive electoral fraud think some conspiracy is afoot.

    That’s shocking!

    Having these documents at a global diplomacy think tank kinda shows he or his staff knew what they were doing putting those files there...

    Racism certainly gets a pass from Liberals when Blacks target and attack Asians and Whites simply because of their skin color on streets across America. Racism of the Liberal left has no bounds, they Hate! White people.

    Agree! As long as we don't have any evidence we can even accuse Hunter of participating in JFK murder (if he is too young, he probably used secret Chinese made time machine).

    Trump was authorized to take the documents and the Presidential Records Act gives him unilateral authority to classify documents as personal vs presidential. It sucks and it's an issue that can be abused. But, it's the law.

    Joe Biden was not president when these documents were taken. So unless Obama was in on it there's a very good chance laws were broken.

    I'm not going to search all over this site looking for examples for you and how should I know the race of certain members on this site, but I know there are threads on the topic of Black hate towards Asians. Maybe you can provide an instance where you denounced Blacks attacking innocent Asians for no reason other than the color of their skin. If you can't, that makes you a Racist also.

    First of all, we don’t know just what documents or how many Biden had in his possession. We didn’t see pictures like we do with Trump.

    The documents Trump had were secured and under secret service observation. Biden’s were kept in an unsecured closet, garage and file cabinet in a home office.


    Second, the documents Trump has had been de-classified. VP Biden had no such authority.
