It's more of you failing to make the connection. I was okay with the toy-gun-guy getting shot (right up until the coup de grace, when it became murder). I was also 100% okay with capitol guards opening fire and to this day I don't understand how or why more (100s more) weren't dropped before they had a chance to even break in. When I see an armed police officer, I assume I will be shot in the face if I attack him or whatever he's protecting. That's why they carry guns. If they're going to carry guns, they have to back it up. But here you are, cheerleading a guy who unloaded on a thug, but not cheerleading a guy who unloaded on a thug.

There seems be plenty of "pretzel logic" (funny, I heard that term quite frequently from the trumpsters the past few days) from both parties.

Trumptsters jumping on this file case, after defending trump last year (i recall when the trump story broke, that many politicians will have these documents after serving...which neither side seemed willing to admit, depending on which story broke).
The right attacks against the Cap police officer who shot the invader, while defending cops who kill citizens who resist arrest. 

It would be a big step towards getting the people of this country back on a better track, if we could all just admit the obvious flaws from whichever team you're on., rather than defending them,. And step away from the sole focus on what's wrong with their side, rather than how do we fix the problems at hand. ..of course by providing solutions that are negotiable, with give and take. 



For the record, Biden is not 'my team' (and neither is trump!).  Also for the record: anyone found improperly holding classified documents should be investigated and probably punished. So far* what Biden (and cohorts yet to be determined) is nowhere near what trump did in scale/severity or audacity. Now, let's investigate them both and let the cards fall where they may. 

*- Long way to go and all, but until Biden is in court fighting subpoenas this is still 100:1 Trump: Biden.

As to not being seen as a card-carrying Communist by Kurt et al, I agree that the guy shot while carrying a plastic gun had it coming.  I'm against handguns, and think any carry (open or concealed ) is F*#&ing stupid...but you gotta know the rules for the home field if you're gonna play the game.  When you point something at people that looks like a gun and tell them to give you their money, you'd better be prepared for the response.

So we find out that the second stash of classified documents found were at his home in Wilmington locked up in the same garage as his precious Vette.

Boy I sure feel better knowing that.

The question no one is asking is what was he doing with these documents as VP that allowed him to remove them and put them into his own possession in the first place.

And to claim he didn't know he had them.  Maybe now that he is essentially brain dead, but back then he seemed to still have all his mental faculties in good working order and knew exactly what he was doing.

And now we have a second stash at a second location ?  Yeah.  He's like a squirrel that buried his nuts and forgot where they were.  Remembering that he said he was "surprised" about the first discovery ...

Regarding the first batch, from what I understand the protocol for processing is it goes to the Librarian at the National Archives who then in turn is to immediately inform the Chairman and Ranking Member of the two Oversight Committees before anyone else.  From what I can gather this did not happen, at all.  For sure not before the midterm election.  The Librarian is in deep in the democratic party.  Uh huh ...

The CCP sponsored his little think tank where the first batch was found.  Some of the files are supposed to be about Ukraine.  

Yup, nothing to see.  Just ...


One further question that has occurred to me in the light of all of this. 

Are there back up copies of these actual files somewhere ?  Or are there only one copy ?

So if someone has it then no one else will know what is in it or if it is even missing ?
