“Deceitful Criminal Conduct” – Jack Smith Claims Trump’s Handling of Classified Documents is Worse Than Biden’s Stolen Docs Case
The Gateway Pundit ^ | February 26, 2024 | Cristina Laila

Special Counsel Jack Smith argued Trump’s case of handling classified documents is much worse than Joe Biden’s stolen classified documents scandal.

This is the first time Jack Smith has addressed Special Counsel Robert Hur’s scathing report on Joe Biden’s mishandling of highly classified military materials.

Jack Smith opposed Trump’s motion to compel discovery in the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case and accused Trump of “deceitful criminal conduct.”

“The defendants have not identified anyone who has engaged in a remotely similar suite of willful and deceitful criminal conduct and not been prosecuted. Nor could they,” Jack Smith’s prosecutor wrote in a 12-page filing

Jack Smith has embraced real evil, the man has abandoned all principles and ethics to achieve his master’s bidding.

If Smith believes that, he is an exceptionally stupid person as well as being corrupt to the core. He should be in jail, not trying to put others in jail.

I don’t think Biden actually cooperated. But the Narrative says “Biden cooperated”.
I think that Trump did cooperate. But the Narrative says “Trump didn’t cooperate”.

And now they chase Trump relentlessly because “he didn’t cooperate” and Biden is let off the hook because “he cooperated”.

And my own view is that no aspect of “cooperating” should make any difference in either case. Who cares? President Trump could declassify anything he wanted, so I don’t see any problem at all. Senator Biden couldn’t do that, so I see big problems for him.

If you’re gonna lie, might as well LIE...BIG TIME...!!!!!

Trump had Presidential reasons for what he did and why he was shielded from retribution from the get go. The Presidential Records act, security at his Florida residence, was in touch with the National Archives and the FBI...and plenty of time to work out whatever...

Biden??????????????????????????????????????????????????????

I rest my case.

Smith’s delusional butt should be kicked until, “la mort!”
He has a wicked character and should be put on the funny farm.

HE SHOUD NEVER HAVE BEEN GIVEN A JOB IN ANY BRANCH OF LAW!

Merrick Garland is in the same category as are Letitia James and Dani Willis!

***************************
Of course Biden didn’t cooperate. He only “cooperated” after he got caught.
Hur’s statement that Biden “willfully retained and disclosed classified information” proves he didn’t cooperate.

“”The defendants have not identified anyone who has engaged in a remotely similar suite of willful and deceitful criminal conduct and not been prosecuted. Nor could they,” Jack Smith’s prosecutor wrote in a 12-page filing””

I can’t even get by that sentence....
I thought Biden HAD BEEN IDENTIFIED in similar circumstances...and NOT BEEN PROSECUTED???
When was Biden prosecuted?

Must the president follow any specific declassification procedures?

The answer is a resounding no for two reasons. First, Executive Order 13526 on its face contains no such declassification procedures.

The Order sets forth (1) who may declassify information and (2) what standards they should apply, but beyond that, there is no additional process required.

While both individual agencies and the Information and Security Oversight Office have developed additional rules about how declassification should be carried out, none of these procedures apply to the president.

Second, given the president’s constitutional authority over both classified information and the administration of presidential executive orders, even if Executive Order 13526 did establish constraints, they are at most self-constraints that the president has the power to ignore.

“The defendants have not identified anyone who has engaged in a remotely similar suite of willful and deceitful criminal conduct and not been prosecuted.

He's right. Hillary's destruction of evidence is in no way similar to Trump's handling of classified documents.
