AG Garland Appoints Special Prosecutor To Probe Biden’s Classified Docs Mishandling
Update: Attorney General Merrick Garland has just announced that he is appointing a special counsel to investigate whether Biden mishandled classified information during his time in private life.
The DoJ names Robert Hur, a partner at Gibson Dunn, as the special prosecutor.

Even Ed Snowden had some comments…
Wow, even *I* handled classified documents more securely. At least I kept them encrypted!

“How that could possibly happen, how anyone could be that irresponsible. And I thought what data was in there that may compromise sources and methods.”
President Biden’s words reflecting on former President Trump’s alleged mishandling of classified documents will be hard for the spin-meisters to distract from as a second batch of documents have been discovered.
Richard Sauber, Special Counsel to the President, has issued a statement to explain this ‘misunderstanding’.
As we stated previously, we are fully cooperating with the National Archives and the Department of Justice in a process to ensure that any Obama-Biden Administration records are appropriately in possession of the Archives.
Following the discovery of government documents at the Penn Biden Center in November 2022, and coordinating closely with the Department of Justice, the President’s lawyers have searched the President’s Wilmington and Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, residences – the other locations where files from his Vice- Presidential office might have been shipped in the course of the 2017 transition. The lawyers completed that review last night.
During the review, the lawyers discovered among personal and political papers a small number of additional Obama-Biden Administration records with classified markings. All but one of these documents were found in storage space in the President’s Wilmington residence garage. One document consisting of one page was discovered among stored materials in an adjacent room. No documents were found in the Rehoboth Beach residence.

[ZH: so not in a safe as they were found in Trump’s Mar-a-Lago?]
Lmao
“Classified materials, next to your Corvette? What were you thinking?”
BIDEN: “My Corvette’s in a locked garage, okay? So it’s not like they’re sitting out on the street.”

Come on, man, the classified docs were locked next to the corvette.

The media is right — the BidenDocs scandal is nothing like Mar a Lago. What’s harder to break into? An exclusive private club with private security, cameras, a strict access list, and secret service protection… or an old man’s garage.

As was done in the case of the Penn-Biden Center, the Department of Justice was immediately notified, and the lawyers arranged for the Department of Justice to take possession of these documents.
The White House will continue to cooperate with the review by the Department of Justice.
But, as Jonathan Turley wrote, the same questions are being asked now about Biden’s own potential “irresponsible” handling of classified material and the true extent of any violations. On Monday, during a state visit to Mexico, Biden declined to answer questions from reporters.
The Biden classified documents matter has been referred to U.S. Attorney John Lausch for investigation. But the discovery will only magnify questions for Garland.

I believe – Garland’s “Special “Prosecutor” has been given the primary mission of hiding or destroying anything that will shed a bad light on biden and more importantly on the demoncrat party and the children of same.
I hope – Garland’s “Special Prosecutor” has been given the primary mission of finding enough dirt to force the resignation of the big guy without damaging the money laundering operation that the demoncrats have in Ukraine and China.
Tune in next week and find out if believing wins out over hoping or vs versa.
Agreed, like Durham – “The Cleaner.”
Doesn’t matter if they found Jimmy Hoffa in the trunk of bidens corvette. None of this matters. None. Of. It. It is bullshit theater and optics. Illusion of justice. Just like the bullshit durham investigation, yeah Hannity…tick tock…its all bullshit. America…WAKE UP.
“ appointing a special counsel to investigate”
SOP- SOS…..FOR 60 YEARS..
No.thing.Changes.
Not even, the Excuses.
Sad part is everyone knows it’s crap, like the Durham report etc. Outcome already written, any of us could write the ending. From what older people tell me it’s the Soviet Union all over: say all the ‘right’ things back and forth and everyone knows it’s all crap.
whitewash incoming. Bidon, “I won’t be running again” Deep state “mission accomplished.”
Grift uninterrupted, business as usual. Nothing to see here Next.
