It may be that all predecessors had similar lots, we just did not have as many vultures waiting to swoop,
That's the current deflection. How can anyone be so irresponsible, so careless?

@George-K said in Classified files found at President's former office...:
In fairness, I am skeptical about Trump's claim that he declassified the papers found at Mar-A-Lago.
It doesn't matter, according to some people. Just thinking about declassifying them whilst being President is enough.
It's a bit like the idea that committing adultery with people in your mind is as bad as actually having sex with them.
Complete bullshit, in other words.I had teh sex with 9 million wimmenz.Anywho......

Now three locations: also in the garage adjacent to the house.
Please tell me they found them in the glovebox of his T-Top Trans-Am…Please!

At the news conference he said the documents were stored with his Corvette.
I guess it is possible that he thinks his Trans-Am is a Corvette.

It's a TRANS something, after all.
It self identifies as a ‘Vette…

Just saw a comment: The DOJ knew about these documents being mishandled BEFORE they appointed a special counsel to investigate Trump.
Why were they silent?
Why were they silent at the time?
It's not their job
I'm sure they assumed the press would cover it
-
The documents were locked up, just like his 'Vette....
Link to video -
What did Frank Zappa know, and when did he know it?
-
More papers found today, in another location at his house.
So by saying he takes this "seriously," I guess he means, he doesn't really know.
Also, this raises the question: Who's looking at these documents, and why are they being moved around? Presumably, they were all in one place, at one time, and now, they're in three different locations that we know of.
-
Karl Rove commented that CBS News was aware of the fact that there were classified documents in unauthorized locations AT THE TIME they were found - in November. CBS alleges that they reached out to the White House, and got no reply.
CBS knew, and they were silent.

So far, we're up to four locations. Most recently, in the file cabinet in
the SCIFBiden's home office. Somehow that belies the narrative that the last days of the Obama administration were chaotic and "things just got thrown in there." This was a deliberate placement.One theory is that there's movement by Democrats to have Biden step aside and not run in 2024 paving the way for
Mayor PeteKamalasomeone else. The unearthing of these documents gives a credible reason to have him not run.Another theory I've read is that the attorney investigating Hunter Biden pushed to have these documents "found" because they contain evidence of Hunter and Joe's improprieties regarding foreign countries.
By the way, how is it that, in 2018, Hunter claimed that he owned the house where Joe is living now?
Most logical explanation is that he lied.

Yep. And that would explain the barking dogs that don't bark unless told to...

You already know the answer.

@Jolly this would probably be a nothingburger if it hadn't been for the hair-on-fire screeching about what happened at Mar-A-Lago.
"HE HAD NUCLEAR CODES!!!"
Remember that? Yeah.
This is not to excuse what Trump did, or the alleged obstruction, but the fact that it was ginned up to be such a scandal makes it damn hard to avoid applying the Trump Standard to Biden, while preventing the Clinton Standard's application to Trump.
Of course, the story is morphing into a few themes:
- It is, actually a nothingburger
- Republicans are pouncing (seizing?) on this
- Justifying the coverage of this story being different from Trump
