    A few documents can be a mistake of having been misplaced, a bunch of boxes full of documents can’t.

    Each new tank costs around $6 million. As a tank power, the United States is second only to Russia with its roughly 13,000 T-72s, T-80s, T-90s and other types. But Russia’s tanks are lighter than America’s tanks.

    Tell me again how our dysfunctional, it-takes-a-thief-to-catch-a-thief, winner-takes-all, mutually-exclusive, constantly-bickering, two-party political system — that attracts unvetted liars, cheats, and thieves while preventing many of our best and brightest from entering — truly represents We The People making us stronger more efficient, more effective, and more trustworthy.

    More documents have been found in a 2nd location. Along with the WH’s hiding of the discovery of the first set, it has created a political crisis for President Biden and impacted the criminal case against FPOTUS. Republican claims of actions against Trump by a weaponized government have had fuel poured on them.

    Don’t worry. Many say there’s nothing to see here. Thinking at a Biden think tank makes no sense.

    What you should worry about is the think tank is funded by China and they paid Biden a million a year to do nothing. Just a money laundering operation within a liberal Ivy League institution.

    Thank goodness we have an Executive branch and a Senate to check and balance the insurrection is loving Republicans in the House. We now have a two year window to observe how our government will function if we vote MAGA in 2024.

    Well sure.. took a whole department to “think” that you were up for the job. And, for what it’s worth.. they were right.

    Republicans on the other hand don’t have think tanks and just nominate folk based on smooth talkers.

    Classified documents actually pertaining to national security, from around the time Joe Biden is known to have been blackmailing Ukraine over the public prosecutor investigating his son’s firm for corruption.

    Migrants are ‘drinking all day,’ ‘having sex in the stairs’ in taxpayer-funded New York hotels: whistleblowerStory by Jeffrey Clark • 1h ago

    An employee at Row, one of New York City’s best known hotels, became a whistleblower Wednesday after he released video and photos of illegal immigrants trashing the hotel and leaving fresh food out to rot.“The chaos that we see at the Row today is [caused] by migrants being drunk, drinking all day, smoking marijuana [and] consuming drugs,” Rodriguez said.

    He also said that the Row is struggling with “domestic violence” among migrants, young people “having sex in the stairs,” and a fight between a migrant and a hotel security officer.

    Veteran conservatives shocked to witness the GOP taking the ‘path to the bottom’

    Although the New York Times’ opinion section is famous for its liberal columnists — including Michelle Goldberg, Jamelle Bouie and economic Paul Krugman — it has had some well-known conservative columnists as well. Two of them are Bret Stephens and David Brooks, neither of whom are happy with the direction that the Trumpified Republican Party has taken in recent years. In an opinion piece published in the Q&A format on January 11, Stephens and Brooks discuss the GOP’s dysfunction and “path to authoritarianism.” The GOP, they lament, has abandoned traditional Reagan conservatism and taken a radical, anti-intellectual turn. And the conservative columnists cite some of the precursors to Trumpism.

    Well said.. This is how the “nothing to see here” classified document scandal is going to be handled unless the scandal is a scheme by the dims to oust Joek or end his run in 2024.

    So what’s the point of The ReidOut? The interview with Donalds provides a simple answer: It’s schadenfreude for those who share Reid’s narrow worldview. It’s a demonstration to that audience that the conservative perspective is so odious as to warrant total war, so ignorant as to not warrant sound argument, and so dangerous as to warrant being drowned out.

    It’s mean-spirited, substance-free fan service, epitomizing everything that is wrong with the partisan corners of the media landscape.

    But while its goal is to demean the audience’s political opponents, the show also reflects Reid’s estimation of that audience’s worth. Does she think them so incapable of grappling with policy questions that she needs to shield them from them? So vindictive that they’d like to spend their evenings watching one person treat another with disdain?

    If so, that disdain, however veiled, extends to the audience too. – Isaac Schorr, Mediaite

    Discovery of more documents indicates that all properties of Biden should be searched by the FBI to find whatever other classified documents he’s left laying around.

    The number of Republican reasons why Biden’s having a few overlooked documents that were immediately handed over is a crime and the vast amount of documents Trump refused to hand over isn’t is stupid. Someone should go read the rules for declassifying documents. It’s enlightening. And it proves Trump had no right to the documents. Biden didn’t either, it’s why he turned them over immediately when they were found instead of making a number of ignorant excuses, such as they were planted.

    Annoying as this is, it’s nothing like what the Orange Traitor did. Not even close. Upon the discovery of a few documents, they have been immediately turned into the appropriate agencies, which is why we know about it. After all, they could have just flushed them down the toilet like Orange Traitor is reported to have done with some classified and other documents that should have gone to the archives. None of the documents had anything to do with the USA’s or other countries nuclear resources.

    Unlike Orange Traitor, who willfully removed boxes upon boxes of sensitive classified documents to likely be used for nefarious purposes. His son in law didn’t get 2 billion dollars to ‘manage’ with a 10 million a year salary from the Saudis for no reason.

    When Orange Traitor was asked for them back, the feds waited nearly two years before getting a warrant to legally search and recover them from Mar a Lago, when they knew he had documents, but he got a lawyer to sign that he had returned all the documents. To, which my understanding is, Orange Traitor has yet to return all the documents he illegally has in his possession.

    Otherwise, this is a good opportunity for a quid pro quo with Orange Traitor. The feds can agree to search Biden’s properties, as long as they can search all of Orange Traitor’s properties, his kids properties and offices, and his ex wife’s grave.

    Obviously, they wouldn’t search the White House, because, duh. What’s weird, is even if these documents were originally kept with knowledge, it was to protect the USA and it’s allies. Unlike Orange Traitor, who did it as a way to benefit himself, no matter who was harmed, and perhaps killed in his doing so.

    Let’s do a repost here considering the subject.

    Army Security Agency and M.I. Vet here having held a TS/SCI clearance for 20 years. When I first obtained my clearance we attended a course that out lined our duties and responsibilities regarding classified information. As a side note we we told that the one person who has UNLIMITED authority to classify and declassify is the President as Commander in Chief. That caused a flurry of questions and due to the Mar A Lago incident I’ve since verified what we were told. The POTUS authority in this regard stems directly from Article II of the Constitution and the fact that it was prior Presidents who actually established classification procedures that are now in effect. The president is not answerable to anyone or any agency in this regard. The Supreme Court made the decision and verified this under the Navy vs Egan case. So President Trump had the authority to declassify all the documents in his possession and he did so. VP Biden had no such authority has actually has broken the law. If I or any of my fellow clearance holders had been caught with TS documents stored in the garage next to our corvette we’d have been court marshaled. If retired we’d have been arrested by the FBI and charged appropriately.

    Ha, ha. A comic that is so generic that all it can say is “Biden doesn’t have a brain.” She must have gone to absolutely no effort to create this.

    I’m betting that Ms. Benson’s contribution to her high school newspaper was to draw a caricature of the principal with the word “stupid” written on his/her forehead. What a cut-up.

    They were in his office. He left them BEHIND. When they were discovered they were immediately turned over.

    Trump took them HOME. When they were discovered, he returned SOME of them, but LIED and said he returned them all.

    Do you know the difference between TAKING something and LEAVING something, Lisa?
