Most cover-ups occur after a scandal breaks, but in the case of discovered classified documents in President Biden’s home, office and garage the cover-up occurred early on – before the midterm election.
That’s when the White House learned of the secret documents stored in Biden’s office and home — and kept it a secret from the public until after the election.
Now it’s too late to tilt the election, but the scandal could affect Biden’s decision whether to run for a second term, and raises a number of troubling questions.
Will Biden announce his campaign for re-election now, while the scandal is red hot? Doubtful.
Was the leak of the investigation into the Biden classified documents timed to keep Biden from running? Who knows.
But there’s no doubt the Department of Justice and White House played politics with this. They waited months to disclose the discovery of the documents. Now we’re supposed to believe the White House will play it straight?
The embattled White House insists it’s being totally truthful and transparent. Yeah, the White House is being so transparent that they waited until after the midterm elections to disclose that the secret documents were found.
The FBI, meanwhile, is left to believe Biden that these are the only secret documents the former vice president took. Right. That’s like the police believing a meth dealer who says the only meth he cooked up was in the garage.
Those explanations won’t fly anymore.
Republicans may have looked like the keystone cops when selecting a speaker but they now have the ammo to torture Biden and come to Donald Trump’s defense.
They will ask the tough questions and demand answers about the discovery of secret documents at Biden’s home and garage that the Democratic media will not.
And Republicans will gleefully point out the hypocrisy of the media and FBI treating the secret documents found in Trump’s home as a criminal matter, while giving Biden a free pass.
Some of the excuses given for Biden by Democratic apologists are laughable.
It’s all been cooked up by Republicans.
It could have been a packing mistake. You know how packing is, things get thrown in by mistake.
The scandal has thrust Attorney General Merrick Garland and special counsel Robert Hur in an uncomfortable and difficult position. If they clear Biden of criminal charges, won’t they have to do the same thing with Trump?
“I am confident that Mr. Hur will carry out his responsibility in an even-handed and urgent manner and in accordance with the highest traditions of this department,” Garland said, quickly walking away and refusing to answer any questions.

This is the same thing that happened with the Hunter Biden’s laptop that implicated Joe Biden in his political corruption and influence peddling. The FBI had Hunter Biden’s laptop before the 2020 election but kept the information hidden until after the election. 🙁 🙁 🙁
Republicans will gleefully point out the hypocrisy of the media and FBI treating the secret documents found in Trump’s home as a criminal matter, while giving Biden a free pass. As the White House, FBI and media did with Hil-liar-y Clinton and her email scandal and her destroying evidence after it was subpoenaed. 🙁 🙁 🙁
ALL in the manner to INFLUENCE the midterms.. DOES ANYONE DOUBT if this info, had been KNOWN before Nov 8th, that the elections would have gone vastly different?!
You can bet it goes a lot deeper than just classified documents.
But with the FBI allowing the Whitehouse access to clean out the convicting. but now democrat infected evidence before they can get it, unlike the raiding Trump’s home, its swamp business as usual. With Garland assigned Hur in charge of the investigation, there will be more truth destroyed, than Chariots in the movie Ben Hur, but with as much political leprosy than Hur’s mother/sister and WE THE PEOPLE ending up more mangled than Massala under the wheels of their party paid chariots of fire, determined to burn down our democracy. It will take a real act of God to cure Americans of this disease, like an environmental rain from heaven. More Covering of the American colonies of Colective Leprosy called socialism, in need of a separation from those healty Americans who seek to live healthy and free.
AND why would someone have PERSONAL LAWYERS< go into a building of his, TO "Pack stuff up for moving", UNLESS THEY KNEW that there would be something suspicious there that needed to get hidden?!
I am still amazed there were enough voters (eligible or not) to actually make the decision to vote for these collectivist anti-American crooks and self serving apparatchiks of the socialist agenda to run this country. How can there be that many ignorant people who chose to ignore the obvious crimes of the Biden family? The answer is actually pretty clear. The Mainstream media and the few people who control the news and opinion content are the primary reason for this mess. I have no idea what to do about it.
Wonder how many of the documents are about China or Ukraine businesses that were used to set up a person with no experince in that business as a member being paid thousands of dollars a month for doing nothing.
I doubt we’ll ever find out.
This has nothing to do with classified documents, but everything to do with politics. No one gives a rat’s rear about classified documents until they can use then to take out a political opponent. Remember Sandy Berger not only did he sneak documents out of the archives, but he even cut some of them up. He got a slap on the wrist. Then there is Hillary, she actually destroyed thousands of documents without so much as a reprimand. Joe had these documents since 2016 and no one seemed to care, until now. With the Republican takeover of the house Democrats fear investigations will uncover something more sinister than a few mishandled classified documents. Joe has got to go, and they hope, if they play it right, they can take out Trump in the process.
It certainly wouldn’t surprise me one bit, that the dems have SET this up, to take Joe out, so they can dispence with him in 2024, and also get Trump as well..
Some say they feel or believe that if this come out before the elections it might have changed the outcome. Personally I doubt that. Democrats don’t care about what their guys do, they will vote for them no matter how corrupt they are. In fact the more corrupt, the better off they are. A thought: Could it be it didn’t come out or wasn’t leaked because they knew that if it came out in November December, The Democrats would do a dog and pony show, spend a few weeks purportedly investigating and clear Biden without any actual accountability. So better to wait until the Republicans take control because they will actually hold Biden accountable. Or another thought. Could they have actually known or found out say a year ago that Biden has classified documents and it will look bad if it gets leaked so they scramble to try to pin same thing on Trump just in case the Biden documents gets leaked and then Democrats will say well ok, tell you what, We will forget about your guy having classified documents if you forget about our guy having them. Clinton’s would have handled it differently, the potential leaker would have committed suicide with two bullets in the back of the head.
It may not have impacted the DEM voters, but i DO SEE it having a major impact on the independent voters!
well this is something and they kept quite for they did not think this would make the News and People would not know but it was Leaked ! why did Lawyers go Look for them instead of People with Security Clearance because they thought they would keep it quite! Crimes you know is why and Crooked Lawyers too! Well Lets see here they were found December 2th and they Raided Trumps Home after they found Joe Biden Criminal Stashes but not Raid Joe, but did Trumps, Home! well that may have Kept Trumps from Running in 2024 and Joe could Steal another Election too with Trumps not be able to run from the investigation of Jan6th illegal Committee You know and then on Monday Jan 8 th two months later and 6 day the News Let the CATS out of the BAG!! if We the people did not want him out and they Stole the Election from him Too Period
Someone suspected, lawyers were sent, due to Lawyer Client privilege..
