The headline is delicious: Vice President Biden left the White House taking classified documents with him. However, what’s really lovely is the problem this creates for Obama: After all, he’s the only one who can rescue Biden but, by doing so, he will completely exonerate Trump of the charges that the latter violated national security laws by taking documents with him when he left the White House.
Both Rajan Laad and Howard J. Warner have ably covered the factual issues surrounding the news that Biden took classified documents with him when he left the Vice President’s office. They addressed how the Washington establishment had the story before the midterms but covered it up; how that same establishment (including the media) that castigated Trump as a traitor and arch-criminal for allegedly having classified material in his possession is now racing to make excuses for Biden; and how it’s possible that China had access to the materials because it has access to the University of Pennsylvania Biden “think tank” in which the documents resided for so many years.
What I find so delectable is that Biden has only one defense to the charge that he stole classified documents from the White House, which is a felony (as Democrats never failed to remind us when the FBI raided Mar-a-Lago). That defense is that Obama, who was president when Biden took the documents, gave him permission to take them, effectively declassifying them.
This defense works because the President of the United States is the ultimate authority about whether to declassify documents. Moreover, as I never tire of saying, the president doesn’t need to go through any rubberstamp process, nor does he need to consult with the bureaucrats who work for him.

So they spent all of this energy to get Trump on the classified documents story for nothing.
Every investigation of Trump has been a waste of time. But they keep trying.
PROJECTION....its what DEMOCRATS do best!
But if DJT *is* prosecuted it will be fun to watch his lawyers question those two...and others...under oath.
Since BiteMe was a VP who couldn’t declassify anything at will, and President was the President, who could, there’s no need for Obongo to ‘exonerate’ President Trump. These deluded marxists just spew lies 24/7. You’d think they would get tired every now and then, but no.
You just Know that someone in CLINTONS circle hired prostitutes to PEE ON A BED!
And every time they wind up with egg on their faces...................

Yep, in fact they went so far overboard investigating Trump, raiding Mar a Lago and Melania's underwear drawer, they can never recover now.
It seems like der kleine Führer, Georgio Soros, would offer a huge reward for anyone who can get Trump indicted and convicted for something. ANYTHING!
This assumes that they or the media cares about how it looks. It also assumes the DC courts care about it. They don’t care that Hillary was given a pass why would they care that Biden will be given one.
No surprise,,,,Obozo has been running the Dem game for years.
Obama saying he gave Biden permission to take the documents doesn’t geehaw with Biden saying he knows nothing about the contents of the documents.
“The Felonious Potato”
Obama doesn’t care about Biden. Thus, Obama is not in a bind at all.
Unfortunately they wound up the special prosecutor.
And once those guys get started, they never want to end the billable hours.
That’s mostly why it died and went nowhere ..like everything to went after Trump with.
They did manage to install a 3 time loser ..a plagiarist..and a pervert in the WH.
Also, the press has to censure itself (ha ha) because its practice to deceive has got its web in a major wad...and few believe Trump is a wolf any longer ..so, they can’t cry about that for the ten thousandth time.
Did the monkeys in the zoo change to flinging eggs?
