Oh god, please impeach him for this. Make Kamala the first female president as a result. That would be so fucking funny.

Hopefully he does get impeached. It would set a good precedent. If we establish that precedent with Biden and it is found to be illegal, the same would apply to trump. Maybe this will be the begining of actually prosecuting presidents for their misdeeds.

There's a huge difference between the crimes committed by trump and Bidens staff mishandling a few papers. As soon as biden became aware of the error he immediately turned over the documents to the proper authorities and fully complied with the investigation.

I think every president should get impeached. Trump set the bar high on that, I can give him that.

It seems the National Archive only knows something is missing when someone gets caught with classified documents. That's a problem that should be addressed.
If Biden was Vice prez at the time, he couldn't have declassified them, so there's that. Seems like the entire situation is differnt compared to Trump but what it does do is shift the political winds for Trump(on this issue).

Trump intentionally stole thousands of classified documents some of which were mark top secret with who knows what type of malicious purpose and then tried to hide it and obscure and obstruct any investigation. Biden was alerted to a simple clerical error and immediately relayed this information to authorities and turned over the documents for analysis and safe keeping. Totally different and trumps deceptive handling of the matter basically almost proves his criminal intent.

Of course it’s different but now half the country has an out for not giving a shit: “Biden did it too.” Hell, “Hillary AND Biden did it too.”

I understand that trump was actively hiding documents and didn't turn them in. I think my point was if what Biden did was illegal then what trump did must be super illegal.

B What a fucking bunch of nonsense. The president can decalcified documents. The VP cannot.

They just found some in the garage of his house too. Definitely notbsounding like just a clerical error anymore. Edit: although I'm not seeing whether or not these are Obama era documents or current administration documents, which I'm sure makes a difference. And the national archives were contacted and the docs returned immediately. Apparently Biden said something along theblines of "it's not like they were on the side of the road".

Anytime a prez hears special counselor....not the best thing.
https://www.forbes.com/sites/alisondurkee/2023/01/12/ag-garland-appoints-special-counsel-to-investigate-bidens-handling-of-classified-documents/amp/
Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed an independent special counsel Thursday to investigate classified documents that were found in President Joe Biden’s office and home, escalating the controversy over the recovered documents even as the administration immediately returned the materials to the National Archives.

Is it weird that I think he may have just straight up forgot the documents existed or where they were?
Maybe he should lean into his dementia

I think this is a systemic issue with controls for classified documents. All I heard is that there is a whole process to track these things and make sure they are where they belong, and that is looking like pure bullshit right now. At least he returned them without needing to have a warrant pulled though.

I'm still waiting for Biden to post an all caps Twitter rant calling this all a witch hunt. That is how presidents normally respond to this type of thing right?

Haha please. Biden could fuck a kid on camera and then devour the disemboweled corpse afterwards and the DOJ would still decline to prosecute.
It is fucking hilarious just how deeply in denial you guys are. Everything is fine, only Repubes are the problem, Biden and his Democrats are all infallible and it is totally fine that we have a two-tiered justice system that only targets the enemies of the Democrats, and by extension, enemies of the billionaire elites!

The US added over a half million new jobs in January and the unemployment rate is 3.4, the lowest it’s been in my lifetime. This is one of the strongest economies we’ve had in a generation.

I have to say, wasn't expecting this. This is definitely good news for the country considering whats brewing economically. Typically, when interest rates rise, it costs more to borrow, reducing the demand for goods and services and investment, this normally leads to a low demand for workers.
....and the rates went up over 4% pretty quick....its not like a quarter point increase
