From the reporting on this matter I understand that Biden didn’t realize what he had locked away and that when his attorneys found them they immediately informed proper channels. Now whether or not he’s telling the truth about knowledge of these documents… I guess we won’t know until after the investigation has concluded. If memory serves me right I think he has been grilled about this somewhat recently.
That was one source I saw from the Wiki page. And Reuters. Would you have me rely on InfoWars or something? The NY Times is the paper of record, man.
Excuse me, he took classified documents with him from secure areas to four different locations (that we know about) over several decades. A lot has been made about where Trump had documents at. Biden had boxes of classified documents in his garage.
We will see what the charges may or may not be.
You actually expect the DOJ to charge Biden? There's tons of evidence that the Biden family took in tens of millions in bribes peddling influence. Yet the DOJ, which admitted just a few days ago that the FBI has over 40 informant interviews that detailed Hunter Biden breaking the law, has made no effort to bring the Bidens to justice. The only thing they've done was try to sneak through a sweetheart deal that would've given Hunter immunity from any future charges.
Probably not due to the precedent set in earlier administrations that the DOJ won't prosecute a sitting president. Dunno dude. At least the facts will come out and if Biden engaged in malfeasance then I trust the American people to punish him politically.
But the president's family doesn't enjoy such protection. And nothing is stopping the Democrats in the Senate to remove him after impeachment.
Right. I think it’s prudent to wait to see what the investigation uncovers. You may not believe me but I’m trying to have an open mind about this.
Only when it's the political party you are a member of though.
Nope. Trump is innocent of these crimes until proven guilty. The impeachments were a lower bar.
So you think it's okay to impeach Biden without proving he committed a crime. Okay.
Uh... it's a different system, separate and apart from the legal system. The right-wingers are more than welcome to bring impeachment to the table with flimsy evidence. But it's not a risk-free proposition for them, either. Biden could emerge from the other side of it looking above it all.
So many words to dodge the question.
To prove a crime and convict somebody in the legal system requires proof beyond a reasonable doubt. To prove high crimes and misdemeanors is a lower bar.
Two rambling posts in a row where you were too scared to answer yes or no.
Irrelevant.
What if solid evidence is brought forth? That infamous phone call by Trump, which led to his impeachment, was based on testimony of an anonymous hearsay witness. But the three House committees investigating Biden have a lot of bank records, emails, eyewitness testimony, FBI informants. They are dotting every i, crossing every t. Will you still consider that flimsy?
