Half the truth here. And no different than the presidents before him. You know that. Why are you so disingenuous?

Yeah, he hadn’t returned them because they his people were still in the middle of the process of determining whether they believed they had legal rights to possession of the documents, which is the appropriate process and procedure. Then if there’s a dispute, there’s procedure to resolve that.

With that said, to me it seems quite obvious that there was no intention of the folks in archives to actually follow the procedure agreed upon and known to all parties, and for obvious reasons.

This isn’t really true. The FBI was given access to MAL document storage and even gave Trump suggestions on improving security which he implemented. His right to possess the material should have NEVER been in question according to the PRA, common transition practices, and subsequent legal precedent. The National archives tried to play hard ball with Trump attorneys and essentially reported the customary back and forth negotiations on submitting and archiving classified material as “obstruction” to anti-Trump actors in the Garland DOJ. IT WAS A COMPLETE SET UP.

And as for Hillary and Biden, in each case investigators noted clear and obvious crimes. And in each case, excuses were made NOT to prosecute. Where with Trump, excuses were made TO prosecute.

There’s simply nothing about that, that could ever be deemed a “crime” for a fricking President, dummy.

Everything about that case was a violation of law. She lied about it in congressional testimony as well. I’d like to know what “compliance” this dude saw that the rest of the world didn’t.

Both Biden and Hillary took the files when neither was President. Biden was not even VP for some that he took.

Hillary destroyed some, defying supeonas.

Joe had his scattered in unsecure locations. His garage, a college library, and in two separate homes. When they realizes their exposure, they made a big deal out of his willingness to return them. Then orchestrated an excuse for not prosecuting him. Too old and dumb, but he remained in office.

Yeah, but she complied aside from that.

Not the answer the board will want to hear, but this is the correct answer
There is a legal question if documents were declassified by Trump. There also is the question of Jack Smith’s appointment by Merrick Garland if it was unconstitutional and lacked proper authorization. Also a question of the raid itself. Very heavy handed.
The FBI search of Biden's residence was kept under wraps because the Justice Department requested it be private. Merrick Garland and Biden admin had an agenda.

Funny, Hillary broke two laws they charged Trump with…
"Altering, destroying, mutilating, or concealing an object" (Title 18 USC Sections 1512(b)(2)(B) and 2)
"Corruptly altering, destroy, mutilating or concealing a document, record, or other object" (Title 18 USC Section 1512(c)(1))
And no charge.

Anybody with an IQ above room temperature knows this, but the usual suspects will turn themselves into human pretzels trying to claim otherwise.

Broke the law.
Destroyed the evidence.
Lied to feds about it.

But other than that, she complied fully.

Laws that FBI director Jim Comey said 'no reasonable prosecutor' would bring such a case against. I guess there were no serious prosecutors in the Garland DOJ.

Then there is Sandy Berger who stuff his pants with docs from the Clinton admin. Not sure if any of those docs were found.

He was fined $50,000, sentenced to two years of probation, and lost his security clearance for three years.

So yeah, lefties act like this Trump thing is a big deal while ignoring actual issues on there end.

The way the statute is written, its only a crime to possess classified documents if you intentionally take them for a nefarious purpose, OR you refuse to give them back when they are discovered. Biden let the FBI come get them. Clinton erased a bunch of digital files, but otherwise complied (I think she should have been charged with some type of obstruction, but IDK) Trump refused to let the FBI come search his files. That gave the FBI the opening to get the warrant. (Yes, there is a legal question whether Trump declassified the documents are otherwise had a right to them...im just saying he gave them the opening they wanted).


But here’s the problem with your take. Trump was the ONLY one of the three who had ANY valid argument for possessing the documents in the first place, any “compliance”/“non-compliance” should be irrelevant for Clinton and Biden(pre-Presidential possession). The fact they had them from jump was breaking the law and should have been treated as such.

Did Bill Clinton turn in the audio recordings that contained classified material? I seem to remember him refusing to hand those over. So was Clinton committing a crime? Why did a Federal judge rule that it wasn't a crime?

Anybody that has an ounce of morality, common sense, or integrity knows exactly what this was.

It was just another attempt to get rid of Trump by any means necessary,
frick they tried to kill his arse twice, and still trying,

No matter how you paint it, twist it, but the they keep fricking up, that's who the left is
