We just need to find a way to blame this all on Trump somehow like we do with everything else

[annabellepepper]

He wasn't hiding them he was just keeping them in storage for SIX YEARS!!!

[roybolder]

Lol, ofc they called... they where afraid they would get a raid and then be blamed of holding back secret documents..

Its not like he had them Just a Day 🤦‍♂️ they Just acted cause they where afraid.

[Wizardof]

This is how you do it. Equal protection under the law! Get BOTH.

[kyle]

Of course it's not no where near the same energy as with Trump..yall will just deflect and act like it's super petty..typical swamp

[nathanshike]

Ya'll can expect the next two years be this bad and even worse

[richlopez]

The VP has no authority to declassify documents. This was a serious breach of protocol and national security. There needs to be an investigation into what happened.

[Kire]

It never does. The left are saints. Never wrong. Well done. You are all an example for all.

[barbarellaville]

I wish the legacy media talking heads could hear themselves rationalizing.

[realmusickproductionsinc]

Thats why Garland gave Trump time to come clean and he did not

[AriSiMom]

Amazing how differently these things are handled by law abiding people vs those that were hiding and lying to law enforcement … the season of chaos begins …

[michaeljaquish]

This is not a great look for Biden given the ongoing and VERY justified Trump national security/espionage violations being investigated now by the DOJ, but the way Biden handled it so quickly and appropriately is actually a valuable lesson in how such oversights SHOULD be handled. Every disaster contains an opportunity.

[skinnergrant_]

Wish the media exposed politicians on both sides besides cover for them

[naturecoastrentals]

There’s no similarities in the way the media treats Biden either. They absolutely crushed trump every chance they got. Biden gets a pass an can’t even form a sentence without rambling off. Just watching the videos of all the incoherent things he’s said makes it look like SNL in the White House. No I’m not a trump supporter I’m just not blind.

[dragonfox.]

Frankly surprised we still have a country with the carelessness our "leaders" deal with stuff.

[deadname...]

This is completely different, Trump had classified documents, Biden only had "classified documents", totally a different thing, nothing alike, not even close.

[MrSanTang]

I am surprised most b the fact that the National Archive do not keep an inventory of their documents. The smallest village library knows who has borrowed what but the National Archives keep finding documents all over the place

[georgemarcouxjr]

Odd that this was discovered before the midterms and just being reported now?

[markparker]

A President can declassify documents. A Vice President cannot. So yes there is a huge difference.

[Logan-pywe]

Where is the FBI raid on his residences?
Another example of ...
there are rules for thee and different rule for me
