I take classified seriously…and ends with a freaking joke. But the media, DOJ and FBI will cover it up.

[manuel]

They can’t to do a single Biden-excuse segment without mentioning his dead son 😂

[PJ-gxji]

When Biden starts a sentence with "the truth of the matter is...", guaranteed it's not.

[joshhoward]

He answered for it all right…ending with a JOKE! He doesn’t take this seriously at all and knows he has the DOJ in his pocket.

[arleneolsen]

That “smirk” when he’s asked an important question about national security!!

[Samantha-lgbw]

Will someone please ask/answer how/why the national archives didn't miss these documents previously, in the last 7 years, or more. If there's a log, it needs to be audited on a regular basis. Come on, people 🙄

[supersonice]

Found a couple days before mid terms and just now release this info to the public? Government FTW

[gingw]

If my local library can keep track of who has and hasn't returned a book and attempt a return in a timely manner, why the hell can't the National Archives keep track of classified documents and request their return or report their loss in a timely manner? This is beyond ridiculous!

[MySpace]

Isn't it a mystery that these documents were not discovered earlier?

[Brandon-sxpg]

It was known November 2nd? Wasn't that 6 days before the midterms?

[marisbelsalazar]

Full investigation is warranted, period!

[lindakay]

WHY BOTHER? Why waste a dime “investigating” this creep and his family? NOTHING - no matter what they might find - will matter. This family, just like a few others are completely covered, protected and free to commit ANY and all crimes they choose! And we all know it 😥

[geemann]

Wait until they find proof about the 'big guys fee' and Hunters dealings. He'll cack from a heart attack.

[theratking]

...and a Vice-President DOES NOT have authority to declassify.

[KAHNUKING]

You guys are masters at spinning the narrative

[harrylazard]

When CNN ponders "The Difference" the fact that one moved files as a President and the other moved files as a Vice President never comes up. The President has the power to remove classified material while it isn't legal for a Vice President to, no matter how much or little or how classified it turns out to be.

[avolantyable]

That, last bit "Totally Irresponsible" Aged like milk!

[jackoalltrades]

how do these documents sit in a office for 4+ years and the person who is supposed to keep track does nothing??

[cowboycurtis]

No explanation as to why they didn't tell us for more than 2 months? I can answer that in one word: midterm elections.

[christianjung]

The big question is. Why didn't someone notice they were missing for 6 years? It's bad enough it happened and should get new overseight so this doesn't happen anymore. But it's really bad nobody noticed it for 6 years.
