I forgot, wasn't this supposed to be a thread about Joe Biden mishandling classified documents? I could've sworn that's what it was from the title.
Just about any thread about either of the two has a great potential for bringing in the other. They are two peas in a pod -- not a good pea and a bad pea, but two bad peas.

It's good to be a democrat!
And the ones to blame for his hypocrisy are conservatives and Republicans which have allowed liberals and Democrats to run rough shod over our values and our Society.

Allowing for the destruction of academic freedom of our colleges and universities as liberal professors were allowed to indoctrinate instead of educating.

Allowing under the "freedom of the press" for liberals to subjugate our news agencies, reporting propaganda for the Democrats as "truth" while undermining what made this country the envy of the planet.

Yes, it is good to be a Democrat for they have earned it by slowly killing this country like a cancer kills an individual.




Exactly...thank moderate Republicans long effort at compromise! Never give in...

Sarcasm is hard to detect for some...

Being a (D)emocrat politician in the United States affords one the membership privileges usually reserved for totalitarian dictatorship Parties in Third World counties, Banana Republics, and Communist countries like China.

If he can prove that they are actually declassified, then he should be found not guilty.

This crazy notion of magical declassification because of thoughts running only in his head is a bunch of hogwash, though.

There is a lot of debate about what it takes to declassify. Pretty big gray area but what we do know and what waterheads don't like to admit is that Senators don't have that ability. So this is not so cut and dried like they try to present.

Give us your version of what it takes to declassify a document by the POTUS.

So much truth to this. The dems love to talk about constitutional threats, but what they really mean is threats to their control. The real threat to our constitutional republic is the unequal prosecution, dependent upon your party affiliation.

This is so delusional. Tell me again, when he was a private citizen and in possession of classified documents, was he in compliance with the law?

Biden to Escape Charges for Mishandling Classified Docs

Quote:

Special Counsel Robert Hur, who is investigating President Joe Biden for mishandling documents, is not expected to charge anyone, sources familiar with the matter told CNN and the Wall Street Journal.

The report suggests a double standard of justice. While there will reportedly be no consequences for Biden, Special Counsel Jack Smith indicted former President Donald Trump in June for mishandling classified documents.

Of course, Breibart is being dishonest, spreading misinformation. Jack Smith did not indict Trump for mishandling classified documents. As mentioned above, if Trump had returned the Presidential Records he was denying having, the indictment (or the search warrant) would never had been filed.

When notified that he had records that did not belong to him, Trump lied. Biden said he was sorry, look for any others. Trump tried to hide what he had. Biden opened his doors for a search without a warrant.

Funny, complying with the law has benefits. Non-compliance has consequences.




Your post is a derail. The question in this thread is why does Trump get prosecuted and Joe does not. The crime has nothing to do with Trump not returning the documents when asked. It's about equal Justice. They're either both guilty or both innocent. Alan Dershowitz said last night on Fox they are both innocent and neither should be prosecuted under applicable law.

100% false. He would've been charged anyway and you know it.

That's not how it works. You don't get to say "oops" after the fact and get off.

Well, when you cooperate with the investigation, you get better results. When you tell your staff to hide the documents, you don't. So who's surprised by that?

Actually, when you own the investigation, you get better results.

This is false. The (D) DAs and DOJ have been looking for any possible reason to persecute/prosecute Trump.
The prosecution would have a hell of a hard time making a case if he had willingly given them back when asked.


He declassified them as you admit... There is no requirement to give them to anyone. They are declassified.
If he can prove that they are actually declassified, then he should be found not guilty.

This crazy notion of magical declassification because of thoughts running only in his head is a bunch of hogwash, though.


Lol... show your work with links... show, in the Presidential Records Act, that "proof of... ...declassification" is required.

Well at least that's good for Trump. Biden was only a VP. Trump was president and had authority to declassify documents. Biden didn't. So if Biden got off, surely Trump will too.


There is no role for logic in this persecution of Trump. The judicial cake is baked, and the decoration says "Guilty."

Lessee... can you provide any other instrument that addresses the topic of classification/declassification of presidential records? Well, there IS the constitution, which is vague on the topic... hence the Presidential Records Act.

And that is Trump's point. There is no formal process from president to president, other than executive orders... which are often overidden by the new president's executive orders.

Don't think the transcript conveys just how bad the interview really was.

Yes. So why don't they allow these to be made public since Joe won't get prosecuted?

Trump is arguing for immunity for official acts of the president WHILE IN OFFICE. What Trump is defending are his actions as President that are solely his power as the executive. In the case of the documents Trump had complete power to declassify without needing to fill out any forms AND the right to keep documents under the PRA.

FJB's is trying to avoid prosecution for his illegal actions while he was SENATOR and VP. Being President today does not make illegal actions before you became President legal. The Biden DOJ and administration cannot throw everything and the kitchen sink at Trump, while at the same time completely dismiss Biden. But they are, and they are not even trying to hide the hypocrisy and double standard.

We have a broken justice system.

Funny how they care so much about Biden's "privacy", but pretty much everything was leaked, legally and illegally, when Trump was in office.

Something must be (D)ifferent.
