As I said, name one person just one who the New York attorney's office has without a complaint of the bank said, I am going to subpoena the records and review let alone prosecute. This is clear targeting of a political opponent and using government funds to pummel.

When discovered by Biden's lawyers, the classified documents were returned immediately. First off I don't know where you get your "information" that they were intermingled with other unclassified material. I think in your own mind. Irrespective does that mean if Trump intermingled his classifed material with other unclassified documents then no crime was committed. How about Hillary, was the fact her classified material was intermingled with information on her server about Yoga lessons and wedding plans make potential leaking to our enemies any less significant. Does her sharing that information unlike Trump with her aides and computer people any less grevious. The fact that documents were or were not returned is IRRELEVANT. That is like saying if I stole something from a store but then gave it back that no crime was committed. In terms of security, Trump's documents were in Mar Largo guarded by secret service. Biden's were in a corvette n his garage totally accessible to others. Hillary's were in her bathroom with full access by computer people and her aides. There is little question that the crimes of Biden and Clinton in terms of potentially exposing classified material were far worse than Trump. Yet only Trump is being prosecuted. Why? Because the establishment protects some and uses its power to punish its opponents. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect banks often don't report being victims of fraud because of the reputational damage. However since banks are trusted with other peoples money and guaranteed with taxpayers money, there is no reason why fraud should not be investigated and prosecuted even if the bank kept quiet.

When they were discovered, they were immediately returned. Trump knew he possessed classified documents. He refused to return them. When given a subpoena, he attempted to hide the documents. He attempted to destroy security camera footage of the attempt to hide the documents. It doesn't get much more incriminating than that. Please don't repeat the lie that Trump declassified the documents in his mind. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
