Special Council To Release Report On Biden’s Classified Docs Very Soon

Who wants to bet that the report says that Biden was a bad boy, that he shouldn’t have had them, but, everything’s OK, no charges recommended?

DOJ Investigation Into Biden’s Handling of Classified Documents Ends With No Charges

The U.S. Justice Department won’t file charges against President Joe Biden over his handling of classified documents found in his private home and office, but an investigative report will be critical of his actions, a person familiar with the matter said Tuesday.

Special Counsel Robert Hur, who was appointed last year by Attorney General Merrick Garland to lead the Biden documents probe, has wrapped up the investigation, according to the person, who asked not to be identified disclosing non-public information. Findings in the investigation report could be released this week, the person said.

The development removes a major legal and political weight hanging over Biden as he runs for reelection. Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump, who is the frontrunner for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, is facing felony charges related to his retention of classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.

As we know, Biden had lots of classified documents in many places that were unsecured, including his garage next to his Vette. He pretty much had no authority to have them from his time as Vice President and Senator.

The decision not to charge Biden isn’t surprising because it involved seemingly innocent mishandling of classified papers that were uncovered and immediately handed over for investigation, according to Barbara McQuade, a former federal prosecutor.

“Trump’s case is completely different because of his willful refusal to return the documents,” McQuade said. “And the cover up.”

Except, Biden didn’t have the authority to have the documents at all. As someone who was in the Senate since 1973, and eight years as VP, he should have known. What’s the old say “ignorance of the law is no excuse”? He knew the law. He just didn’t care. If it was some low ranking federal bureaucrat or military member they’d be charged and prosecuted. We all knew that the investigation was going to end like this.

White House officials have argued the Biden case is different because the president’s staff turned over classified documents voluntarily when they were discovered and invited the search of his Delaware home. Biden conducted a voluntary interview with investigators in early October.

Except, that makes no difference. He unlawfully had the documents. That’s it. But, the fix was in.
