Documents Debacle

To all my FB friends, and foes, far and wide, nothing can be done legally to Biden for the documents debacle. Adjudication for crimes before he was President are not impeachable. So the House of Representatives can investigate all they wish, and subpoena just as much, but they are not going to be able to do much beyond that. No matter how they blather on. The crimes if there are any, occurred when he wasn’t President. If he is indicted the trial will be when he is out of office.

If Biden had known the documents were in his possession, and then hid them, and told no one, and they were discovered, then that would be Obstruction of Justice, and an impeachable offense. Even then any Impeachment needs to get by the Senate, which is highly unlikely. So the whole affair would be an exercise in stupidity, which is what the 118^th Congress id full of; stupid.  

 

Now, if Biden had not voluntarily notified the National Archives, and was caught, that would be Obstruction of Justice. Because there would be a conscience of guilt, in that he hid them when he knew they were there. Once he knew they were they were there his lawyers notified the National Archives. That is the difference between Trump and Biden.

Trump lied about having them One of Trump's lawyers quit because he was asked to sign off on there weren't any more documents at Mar Lago. Another of his lawyer's did sign off that there were no more papers at Mar Lago, when in fact there were, opening herself up to a credibility problem, and a possible perjury indictment.

Now with all that said, we have another problem with government that has not come to the forefront until recently. Documents. Government officials need to generate documents to do their job properly, that is a given. They could just destroy the documents then we wouldn't have this documents nonsense from both sides. Thing is, what government officials do in the course of doing the peoples business and governing, needs to be documented for an historical record. That is why ALL documents generated by government officials is government property, or property of the people. The people have designated the National Archives to properly archive, and warehouse these documents. Our problem is that the National Archives doesn't have the power to do anything about the abuse of records. That abuse hasn't bit us in the butt as of yet, but going like we are, with buffoons taking home and storing then in a closet or next to a Corvette, the probability that this becomes a major, incident, embarrassment, or issue, is high. We need to fix this now before we regret not fixing it. Just sayin.
