Uproar over Biden classified documents
report carries echoes of 2016 Clinton
email case

Washington— The release of a harshly critical Justice Department special counsel report on President Joe Biden has triggered instant flashbacks to history-shaping events of 2016. That’s when FBI Director James Comey castigated Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton over her email practices despite recommending against charges. In this year’s already heated election season, the Justice Department cleared Democrat Biden, too, of criminal wrongdoing but painted a politically damaging picture of his handling of classified information. Both announcements were derided by Democrats for their potential to unduly shape public perception in an election year — and for the inclusion of what they saw as

Why wouldn't it? The same corrupt DOJ is still in charge, and has been since long before that. You'll never get justice from those poltroons unless you're poor or poorly connected.

The only uproar is coming from the media, which specializes in encouraging rioting. It is not news that Biden can't function. The left wing media is doing what the Democrats told them to do, and that is begin the narrative of replacing Biden on the ballot.

The DOJ makes it clear that they only prosecute Democrats when they have no choice. However, intentionally or not, by not prosecuting Biden because he is mentally unfit, they opened the door to the 25th amendment. They can't have it both ways.

The difference between the two situations is glaring. The AP is trying to spin that the Clintoon mess was survivable and this could be as well. They are dreaming. Hillary is a crooked politician. The public believes that most politicians are crooked, to some degree. Many were already suspicious of Hillary for many reasons. Sure, it probably made a small difference in the election but not too much. Biden is incompetent. He has significant memory issues. People who have dealt with elders going through memory and temperament issues recognize Biden as the poster child for an elder needing special care. NO SANE VOTER wants an mentally challenged, incompetent person as president of the country. If Biden, the boat anchor, remains on the ballot, sure, some will vote for the democrat because they hate Trump. But few will vote FOR Biden. There will certainly be no positive energy for the dems. That could echo down the whole dem ballot as disgusted and disenfranchised dem voters simply stay home. This could hand Trump a solid congressional win as well as the presidency. At this point, it is likely there is nothing (legally) the dems can do to win in November. They could minimize the damage by booting Biden out of the presidency for incompetence and picking an alternative in their convention. Their convention is likely to be a bloody battleground as the identity components of the party battle it out. The problem is, the dems have no good alternative candidates of any identity and the time will be short to sell whoever they choose. Maybe they could build enough positive energy to save some down ballot races. The truth of this issue is that it existed when Biden ran in 2020 and they covered it up. The dems & their media richly deserve this mess that they foisted on the country.

Hillary Clinton should be in prison for that and many other crimes. Being a high-level democrat makes one immune from justice. I'm still trying to find that exclusion in the Constitution and Bill of Rights.

What idiot writers. The DOJ did not clear Biden of criminal wrong doing. That is an out and out lie, which we have all come to expect from the AP. Hur declined to charge Biden but did not clear him of the felonies he committed. That is a huge difference and one that the mental midgets at the AP apparently don't have the intellectual ability or intellectual honesty to recognize in their "reporting."

The thunderous, blind rage with which Democrats and their media stooges are greeting the special counsel report on Joe Biden is a thing to behold. With apologies to Jack Nicholson and “A Few Good Men,” they can’t handle the truth. It’s as if Dems and their handmaidens really believed Biden was fit for duty, that the stumbling, mumbling, confusion and hiding were normal.

Yet Politico neglected to mention how Biden seemingly failed to recall the name of the church he got the rosary from to memorialize his deceased son Beau. Here's that highly embarrassing moment for Biden that shocked viewers yet Politico disingenuously left out of their reports of the press conference. (X Video)

Now, she is showing that handler role again, with a statement on the report issued by Special Counsel Robert Hur in the classified document investigation. The statement was issued in her name, as part of a fundraising email sent out by the Biden campaign.

We’ve been very vocal about our support of the America First policies and agenda, which he skillfully enacted during his time in the White House.”

GOP Senators blocked a hidden migration bailout for the Democrats’ sanctuary cities and states when they voted against the border bill pushed by Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY).

Biden’s policies have been highly effective in achieving the administration’s ultimate goal to massively inflate the foreign-born population to the largest ever recorded, standing at nearly 50 million today.

Mexican drugs cartels have expanded all the way north and are targeting America's 'last best place' by preying on vulnerable Native American communities in Montana. A recent report showed Montana to be the second most 'addicted' state with 18.2 percent of the state's population using illicit drugs in 2021 - a figure that has only been rising as time goes on. Drug cartels from Mexico are drawn to the state of Montana because of how much money they can squeeze out of residents.

More than two dozen confidential witnesses against former president Donald Trump face “significant and immediate risks of threats, intimidation, and harassment” if their identities become public, federal prosecutors have told a judge. In response, U.S. District Court Judge Aileen Cannon in West Palm Beach, Florida put a hold on Friday’s previously scheduled public release of a trove of documents. Cannon has given Trump's attorneys until Feb. 23 to respond, meaning the documents likely won't be released earlier. At issue is evidence prosecutors turned over to defense attorneys in the case over Trump’s alleged mishandling of classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida after leaving the White House.

Israel's neighbors and key mediators warned Saturday of disaster and repercussions if its military launches a ground invasion in Gaza's southern city of Rafah, where Israel says remaining Hamas strongholds are located — along with over half the besieged territory's population. [SNIP] The announcement set off panic. More than half of Gaza's 2.3 million people are packed into Rafah, which borders Egypt. Many fled there after following Israeli evacuation orders that now cover two-thirds of the territory following the Oct. 7 Hamas attack that sparked the war. It's not clear where they could go next. Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry said any Israeli ground offensive on Rafah would have "disastrous consequences."
