Joe Biden violated the Espionage Act. Of that there is no question. He was not indicted, not for lack of evidence but because the Special Counsel felt he would present himself as a doddering forgetful old man. New information shows just how badly Biden compromised the US.
Yesterday Paul Sperry reported
FBI agents caught Joe Biden illegally hoarding a dozen+ notebooks containing classified info, inclg:Exactly the kind of things the Chinese Communist Party would find interesting.-- "US intelligence sources, methods & capabilities"
-- "Activities of foreign intelligence services"
-- "US military programs & capabilities"
-- "Foreign military programs"
These documents were moved to the Penn Biden Center at the U of Pennsylvania by Biden aide Kathy Chung. As usual, Biden refused to accept any responsibility for the handling of those documents:
At a press conference hastily assembled after the report’s release, Biden said he assumed his aides had shipped “all" the documents to the National Archives in College Park, Md. “I wish I had paid more attention to how the documents were being moved and where,” he said. “I thought they were being moved to the Archives. I thought all of it was being moved [there].”The doddering old man was unconcerned about the handling of highly classified information.
Enter the mysterious Kathy Chung
Chung, an old friend of Hunter Biden, began working for Joe Biden in 2012 when he was vice president. She told investigators she oversaw the transfer of the contents of Biden’s file cabinets and desk drawers into 15 boxes when he moved out of the West Wing in January 2017. While other office material did go to the National Archives, Hur rebuked Biden for keeping more than 600 pages of classified information – including military secrets and intelligence sources and methods – in unlocked and unauthorized containers at multiple locations, including a tattered box in the garage of Biden’s Delaware home. The stash included information marked “top secret” involving Iran, China, Afghanistan, and Ukraine. Some of the secrets are compartmented by codewords and can only be stored and read in a secure facility known as a SCIF.SC Hur let her off the hook, despite her history of mishandling classified information:The Biden documents that Chung herself packed, unpacked, and repacked “are the most highly classified, sensitive and compartmented materials recovered during our investigation,” Hur wrote.
This is not the first time Chung has been found to have mishandled sensitive government documents. In the late 1990s, when she worked with Hunter Biden at the Commerce Department as an administrator, she and her boss Melissa Moss were cited by a federal judge for failing to turn over documents sought in a Freedom of Information Act case, as RealClearInvestigations first reported. They were accused of withholding and even destroying key documents in a search that the judge ruled “grossly inadequate” and “unlawful."The documents were moved several times under lax security
The record shows that Chung personally dispersed the sensitive material to at least three locations in the years when Biden was out of office, 2017-2021 – including two temporary office sites before they were “discovered” in 2022 at the Penn Biden Center in D.C. in an unlocked office frequented by visitors.They were brought to the Penn Biden Center and stored with virtually no security at all. Anyone was free to access them.

Not a problem.
For he’s an elderly Democrat. So no comeuppance shall happen.
Biden Staffer Chung Who Mishandled China, Iran Secrets Retains High-Security Pentagon Job

Above, Kathy Chung (circled), the Hunter Biden friend enlisted as “gatekeeper” for his father as Vice President. She remains in a sensitive Pentagon post after Special Counsel Robert K. Hur implicated her in the mishandling of Joe Biden’s classified documents.
While Special Counsel Robert Kyoung Hur has raised the issue of mental deterioration in explaining why he declined to prosecute 81-year-old Joe Biden for illegal retention and sharing of classified documents, the president chose another rationale to declare himself not culpable: He shifted the blame to the staffers who boxed up his records as he left the vice president’s office in 2017.
At a press conference hastily assembled after the Hur report’s release, Biden said he assumed his aides had shipped “all” the documents to the National Archives in College Park, Md. “I wish I had paid more attention to how the documents were being moved and where,” he said. “I thought they were being moved to the Archives. I thought all of it was being moved [there].”
The president’s explanation does not address how and why he shared classified material with a ghostwriter, but it shines a light on the longtime assistant who was in charge of packing his papers, Kathy Sang-ok Chung.
Chung, an old friend of Hunter Biden, who worked with Hunter at the Clinton Commerce Dept, was recommended by Hunter for a job with Joe Biden in 2012 when he was vice president.
She told investigators she oversaw the transfer of the contents of Biden’s file cabinets and desk drawers into 15 boxes when he moved out of the West Wing in January 2017.
While other office material did go to the National Archives, Hur rebuked Biden for keeping more than 600 pages of classified information – including military secrets and intelligence sources and methods – in unlocked and unauthorized containers at multiple locations, including a tattered box in the garage of Biden’s Delaware home.
The stash included information marked “top secret” involving Iran, China, Afghanistan, and Ukraine. Some of the secrets are compartmented by codewords and can only be stored and read in a secure facility known as a SCIF.
The Biden documents that Chung herself packed, unpacked, and repacked “are the most highly classified, sensitive and compartmented materials recovered during our investigation,” Hur wrote.

Biden ‘executive assistant’ referred to in Hur’s report was Biden’s WH gatekeeper, Kathy Chung.
<>Chung mishandled the classified documents yet she still was not charged.
<>Biden appointed her to a cushy job at the Pentagon as Secy Lloyd Austin’s assistant
<>as Secy Lloyd’s asst, Chung has access to the nation’s most highly sensitive military materials.
In Oct 2017, Chung relocated 15 boxes of WH classified documents
<>placed blocks away into the newly-built U of Penn “Biden Center” in a DC office building,
<>she unpacked Biden’s White House documents – including some marked “top secret” –
<>Chung placed them into a 3-drawer filing cabinet in her outer office
<>Chung’s office adjoined Biden’s office (designed to resemble his old West Wing suite).
<>Other documents were left in boxes stacked in an unlocked storage closet,
<>Chung debunked Biden’s claims they were stored in a “locked closet.”
<>the entire office Biden Center suite was never locked,
<>anybody who got past the lobby security guard had access to the classified files stored there.
TREASON is an integral part of Joe Biden’s existence. He’s China’s B*TCH, among other things. The Chinese have a treasure trove of BLACKMAIL MATERIAL against Joe and Hunter and it’s the gift that keeps on giving them EVERYTHING they want to know about our government and it’s activities.
Secy Austin and a disheveled Chung (right).
Yet all the media treats Biden like he is a savant and Trump is the doddering old fool (who is being charged).
Information, HE WAS NEVER AUTHORIZED TO HAVE, he was Vice President, not President.
Anyone of Muslim, Chinese, Communist or Muslim family background, should be disallowed from serving in any capacity in the US government or bureaucracy. Only second Generation or more established Americans should serve, in such capacities. American born can serve in the military, but not go to Military academies.
Imagine a world where Chinese women fly to America to have children, then fly back home. They go home to raise dual citizens, that can then run for President. THAT is the immigration screw up we live under. Like worldwide anchor babies.
“Information, HE WAS NEVER AUTHORIZED TO HAVE, he was Vice President, not President.”
Correct. But we all know why. Because it was OK for him to have papers and files etc. (same as Pence, congressman, governor, VP) because he was one of the clique. And I sure it’s quite common for ex politicians or sitting politicians to have papers and files lying about.
But when an OUTSIDER has INSIDE materials (even though he was granted BY THE PEOPLE to have access to such materials), well that JUST WON’T DO! WE NEED ALL THOSE PAPERS AND FILES BACK!
As Bill Barr so arrogantly put it, we can’t important papers at a GOLF RESORT! But in a warehouse like Obama’s papers, that’s just fine.
These people are elitests. And also keep in mind that ALL these ex officials keep their security clearances, even though they’re no longer in their positions.
One wonders if Chung has a security clearance.
This all happened right about the time the Chinese rolled up every single human asset we had in China.
Coincidence? I think not.
L
She absolutely does. She works for the defense Secretary today.
That doesn't address why he even had them in the first pace since he was never authorized to in the first place.
What is the punishment for Treason?
You can’t violate the law if you’re a democrat, get real.
If you are a democrat, “the comfy chair”.
Comfy chair and a spot on CNN making millions a year.
Not a Problem. Agree
He’s a DEMOCRAT. Age, and/or Mental Disability has NOTHING to do with the lack of prosecution.
“Nobody ‘fs’ with a Biden”
And no one will. That nasty disgusting chomo knows where all the skeletons are buried. There’s a reason no one in DC will touch him. He takes down the entire house of cards.
INDICT TRUMP!
