An Inconvenient Truth Regarding the Biden Classified Documents Ordeal
We must demand accountability, regardless of political affiliation
--
If President Joe Biden did something illegal regarding the current classified document matter, I want him prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Unlike the MAGA cult, which will never accept such a fate for their dear leader, we progressives should and must accept such an outcome. Doing otherwise only puts us in the same boat as them. And that is not a place I want to inhabit.
As the disgraced 45th president most famously proclaimed, he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue, and his people would still love and support him. Unfortunately, that statement is not a bunch of BS like most of what he says is. He spoke the truth, for once.
I, for one, am not the kind of person with Biden flags waving in front of my house. Nor do I have pictures of him transposed onto the body of a superhero. It’s pretty simple: I proudly voted for Joe Biden and would do it again in a heartbeat. But that’s where it ends. He’s my president — not my savior and hero who can do no wrong.
As you may have heard, a handful of classified documents were found at various places in the Biden orbit. Some of the sites mentioned are his home, think tank center, and garage. Supposedly they are from his time as Vice-President under Barrack Obama. Attorney General Merrick Garland has appointed a special counsel to investigate the matter — A Trump appointee.
At first, I thought it was unwise for Garland to do this. But I’ve changed my opinion. In reality, he had no other choice. Garland is a cautious guy who tries to maintain his independence from the executive branch. Again, MAGA world wouldn’t support Garland’s action even if he’d appointed Trump himself. However, the rest of America should be confident that whatever comes out of the investigation will have some modicum of fairness.
I do not think that Biden violated the law. I doubt they’ll find wrongdoing, with the most likely outcome being that the documents were mishandled. Reckless and sloppy? Yes. Illegal? I doubt it. For it to be unlawful, the main factor to consider is the intent of the person who had the documents in their possession. Did he obstruct…
