As mentioned to you previously, it took 2 months between the time the NARA noticed the DOJ and the reporting of it by the media, for BOTH Biden and Trump cases. 2 months in both cases!

But do you not understand Joe Biden knew Top Secret classified documents had been found improperly stored in an unsecure location in various properties owned or controlled by himself while at the very same time playing politics attacking Trump for having classified docs in a very secure place at MAL? Surely you can understand why this is an issue?

 Do Biden and his fans have integrity or not?

Looks like Biden thought his own crime would be swept under the rug by the dishonest msm and doj, extremely surprising that we got to hear about it at all.

I am becoming more and more of the mind that the people that run the Democrats have abandoned Biden to his fate. I'll be extremely surprised if he is a candidate in 24, and not surprised if he is gone before.

10 hours ago, Eric Loh said:

Any evidence that he willfully kept the documents for 6 years? Or NARA knew and subpoena Biden to return the documents? Please enlighten. 

Which is worse? He knew or he didn't know?  Because it obvious he doesn't take Classified info as serious as he says.

Risk of prosecution on Biden, Trump docs differs due to cooperation

The situation has drawn comparisons to the investigation of Trump, whose Florida home was searched after he failed to fully comply with repeated requests to return presidential records, including some 300 classified documents that were ultimately recovered.

 

Like Trump, the Biden saga could implicate the Espionage Act, which bars the willful detention of national defense information. But prosecutions under the law, which requires demonstrating intent, are less likely when a subject notifies and cooperates with authorities.

 

“Once he was told he had [classified documents], what happened next? And that is the big, big, big, big distinction here,” said Kel McClanahan, executive director of National Security Counselors, a nonprofit law firm specializing in national security law.

Biden’s Classified Documents Should Have No Impact on Trump’s Legal Jeopardy

The recent discovery of a small number of classified documents, left over from President Joe Biden’s time as vice president and found at his private office and home, has injected confusion into the public’s understanding of whether any criminal liability might be appropriate for former President Donald Trump in connection with the huge trove of classified documents found last year at Mar-a-Lago.

Given the facts as they are now known, only the most superficial parallel can be drawn between Biden’s possession of these documents and Trump’s conduct relating to the documents held at Mar-a-Lago.

I understand Biden's remark is comical now.

 

However, your claim is innacurate. Biden's documents were found on 2 November, and he mocked Trump in September. September is before November, not after, right?

 

"During an interview on "60 Minutes" from September, Biden was asked about the viral photograph of top secret documents spread across the floor by the FBI following the raid of former President Trump's Mar-a-Lago home..........How that could possibly happen, how one anyone could be that irresponsible," Biden responded.

You are making the unsupported and highly unlikely claim that biden did not know he had illegally taken top secret classified documents and kept them in several unsecure locations. I put it to you it is likely biden knew about these documents for 6 to 8 YEARS depending on when he took them without permission.

Hilarious......lol Trumps lawyer comparing the Biden case and now wants to call it quits and move on.

There is no evidence he knew about it. It's you making an unsupported claim.

Bidens does not dispute the classified materials were in his possession, and even claims they were kept in a locked garage and his explanation is “inadvertently misplaced.”

 

 That is clearly an admission of the crime of being in possession of classified US government documents which is federal criminal offense, and Biden the WH and the lawyers are not disputing it.

 

The “inadvertent mishandling” is as incomplete a criminal defense as Bill Clinton’s claim that he smoked marijuana but “didn’t inhale.” It is designed to suggest that, while the act may technically violate the law, the conduct is excusable or harmless. 

So, Joe Biden has admitted that, while he was Vice President and for six years after that, he violated national security laws.

 

This should qualify as an impeachable offense without question,

 

"Inadvertently misplaced" is no defense for Biden

https://www.foxnews.com/video/6318611301112

The fact that inadvertent mishandling of classified is not a crime has been explained many times.

 

The fact that you refuse to acknowledge this well known fact shows that you are a troll.

The crime is not "willfully" keeping the documents...it's having them in the first place (even if he locked the garage door)!

Are you back to that again  It has been explained, on one occasion using your own sources, that inadvertent mishandling of classified is not a crime.

 

Clearly you are also trolling.

Spot on. That is the over riding concern here.

A forumite yesterday took offense to the term I used for biden having "stolen" the documents. Why would I say this? Goose and gander....

But you do not understand that when classified was found in Biden's office and home proper procedures were followed.  That is not what happened with classified that Trump was holding, hiding, denying and refusing to return.

Now who would blame Trump - the victim of 6 years of persecution and hoaxes from the left, the DOJ and the MSM - for not listening to a word they say. That's what happens when your credibility is shot. 

 

From memory I believe Trump effectively told them to pound sand because as a PRESIDENT he had the authority to declassify any document he wants. Something nobody claims the ex VP had. ANy way you look at it this is devastating, and as another poster with an excellent track record of being on the correct side of issues has said, it looks like this media blitz is no accident, likely it's biden's time to go.

You can assume whatever you want, you have no evidence. This is being investigated by a special counsel, as demanded by the right-wing, we'll know more when the investigation is completed.

"Well, there are differences, but you can't make this stuff up. But there are differences," Rove responded. "For example, how many documents in Biden's case, there appear to be about 10. In the case of President Trump, hundreds."

"How responsive were they?" Rove asked. "When the Biden people found out about it, they called immediately, called the appropriate authorities and turned them over. We spent a year and a half watching the drama unfold in Mar-a-Lago, and it had to end in a police search to recover the documents."

The law is clear that inadvertent mishandling of classified that is corrected using proper procedures is not a crime.  That's what the Biden team did.  Trump's team did the opposite.

Your memory is faulty.  The documents were government property.  That was explained to Trump.  He tried to keep what he had stolen regardless.
