Biden's Classified Documents Discovery Is a Catch 22

The week has been filled with big stories about classified documents, being in places where they shouldn’t be. The Biden administration and the Democrats have found themselves behind the eight-ball, because it finally came to light that classified documents, including some designated top-secret, were found in various places associated with private citizen Joe Biden. Much of the conversation is about the obvious hypocrisy considering the persecution of President Trump including the assignment of a special counsel to look at documents that he had at Mar-a-Lago. It is safe to say, if they had not gone so absurdly far in their effort to destroy Trump, the finding of these documents would likely not have led to a special counsel. Known as the law of unintended consequences, they “Trump-hated” themselves into a corner. And no, these situations are not the same. Donald Trump, as a president, had unique powers regarding classifications. The vice president has no such powers. No doubt the Biden aides are scrambling right now after finding out that they have once again been revealed as the gang that couldn’t shoot straight.

At the start of this new Biden debacle, I told both radio and television audiences that whatever the first story was from the White House should be taken with a grain of salt. It seems with the Biden gang whatever their first explanation is usually ends up being a rather twisted version of the truth, if related at all.

It’s always the details that give away the con. Consider the initial revelation that classified documents were found in a closet at the Penn Biden Center, a “think tank” where Biden was parked in between his vice presidency and campaign for the highest office in the land.

It was just this week when we learned about those documents being found on, we are told, November 4th just two days before the midterm election.

When asked about those documents, Biden turned into Sergeant Schultz from Hogan’s Heroes, a man who knew nothing. He even claimed his attorneys told him not to even ask about what was found leaving him unable to comment. He was perplexed and surprised. And yet, we now know that on December 20th his attorneys also found a second batch of classified documents at his Delaware home.

What all of this means is that Biden, while expressing his dismay and shock about the news of the Penn Center discovery, knew for weeks that additional documents had also been found at his own residence.

It’s also very odd that this information, which clearly had been known for weeks prior to it being released to the American public, has been done in a piecemeal way. Moreover, it’s now come to light that a third document source was located also within Biden’s Delaware home. Maybe it’s time they also search his beach house.

Keep in mind the White House had been super focused on describing what happened after the documents were found. Their messaging started with how right after the lawyers found the secret material in the Penn Center closet, they called the White House and then the White House called the National Archives, and then the National Archives called the Attorney General. Really? Describing themselves as a competent and trustworthy, well-oiled machine as they lie to the American people reveals just how degraded Biden and his cronies have become. Focusing on what they allegedly did once the documents were discovered means that no one is to ask how they got there in the first place. And that is exactly what matters.

In an opinion piece for Fox News, legal scholar Jonathan Turley made a very good point about the White House’s assertion that these classified and Top Secret documents were “inadvertently misplaced.” He reminds us that Biden’s tenure as vice president ended in 2017 but he wasn’t able to move into the Biden-Penn Center until later in 2018, meaning the documents had to be moved again to that office. We also know documents, at this point, have been found in at least three different locations.

The “misplaced” narrative is as much of a fraud as was Biden’s initial “aw-shucks-I’m-surprised-and-clueless response.”

Democrat desperation delivered up an even more absurd allegation. A new narrative trial-balloon popped up, first from Georgia representative Hank Johnson, most famous for claiming that if we put more Marines on the island of Guam it would tip over. After the garage batch was found Johnson told Fox News, “Things can be planted in places and then discovered conveniently. That may be what has occurred here…” Then right on cue the ladies at The View discussed the same conspiracy theory as a serious thing to consider.

The Democrats and their media enablers should really get their stories straight.

No sooner did the Democrat accusation that Republicans were trying to frame Biden, did the man himself admit to knowing that the documents had been stored in his garage next to his Corvette. Facing questioning by Fox NewsPeter Doocy that he knew they were in the garage and then seemed proud and amused with himself that they were locked in with his Corvette.

Biden’s attitude has moved from clueless alarm to belligerent righteousness. While the final truth of the matter has yet to be determined, what we do know is that whatever the Biden administration tells us is not a part of that truth. We have to presume that the Biden gang was open and transparent with Attorney General Merrick Garland’s office, making their initial misleading of the American public an even more crass and deliberate decision. The Democrats might find this is the easiest way to get rid of Joe Biden. Our problem is the fact that Biden is a product of the establishment and they remain in power..
