House probe closes in on Biden trove of classified documents, wary of ties to family’s foreign deals

[HARK!]

House investigators Monday sought access to the trove of classified documents improperly taken and stored by President Biden, to determine if the sensitive material was used in connection with the Biden family’s lucrative foreign business deals.

In a letter to special counsel Robert K. Hur, who was appointed by Attorney General Merrick Garland to investigate Mr. Biden‘s possession of the documents, House lawmakers requested access to all documents recovered in the case, as well as other related material.

“If any of the classified documents mishandled by President Biden involved countries or individuals that had financial dealings with Biden family members or their related companies, the committee needs access to that information to evaluate whether our national security has been compromised,” House Oversight and Accountability Committee Chairman James Comer, Kentucky Republican, wrote to Mr. Hur.

Haha. Surely our national security might be compromised with respect to any country. This is just Comer trying to keep the phrase "Biden crime family" alive after all the witness testimony flops.

The investigations will continue!

Of course when the hoi polloi take note, the “desired” reaction is so easily enticed: gee, they’re doing a lot of investigating into Joe Biden, he must be crooked!

The reason the investigations will continue is that they haven’t found anything yet.
I mean, who continues to search for a thing when one has found it?

Trove? ~25 documents isn't a "trove". This is just another sign that Comer is on a fishing expedition and has nothing.

Kinda sounds like a witch hunt.

Gee... bad timing, guy. Today:
The United States has bombed two Iranian sites in eastern Syria in retaliation for a series of attacks on American troops stationed in the region.

The Pentagon said it used F-16 fighter jets to launch air strikes near Bukamal, following drone attacks on US forces.

The retaliatory strikes hit weapons and ammunition storage areas connected to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), a branch of the Iranian military responsible for supporting proxy groups in the Middle East such as Hamas and Hezbollah.

Better luck with the next one.

The laser like focus on the hope of Bidens corruption is lamer in the context of having to see the "Clarence Thomas and the Billionaire" thread right above it where we have an entire thread of Republicans excusing influence peddling.

Hard to take it seriously.

It's always amusing that the far-right can't make up their minds whether Biden is a helpless vegetable or a fiendishly clever crime boss.

Right...but he seems to be specifically referring to the possibility of documents that might have been viewed by foreign entities the Bidens shared fhem with.

This is just Comer trying to keep the phrase "Biden crime family" alive after all the witness testimony flops.

Did "all the witness testimony" flop?

There has to be influence peddled. Tell me when Clarence has a Ukrainian prosecutor fired and not just a friend taking him on vacation.

Hard to take it seriously.

Everyone thinks he's a vegetable....it's the people around him protecting him. We're also talking about crimes he did before his current and rapid decline.

Joe "I'm just following my orders here" Biden's famous speech about his plans to "go to bed" before being ushered off the stage in Vietnam.

I wonder how many times that's going to be played during his re-election campaign. I don't think anyone believes he's a criminal mastermind. He's got the entire DOJ, significant portions the intel community, and basically half the legislature trying to hide or distract from his crimes and it's steady work...because he's got a record number of whistleblowers. He has to have multiple lawyers hide his documents, and then he has to have a team of lawyers negotiate what sort of questions the special prosecutor can ask during his interview with the president....a negotiation that took months.

It seems unlikely that the president was able to just answer questions regarding his illegal possession of classified documents without incriminating himself.

I won't argue that Trump was bad at his job....but at least he was doing it. I don't know who currently does the President's job....but it doesn't seem to be Joe Biden. He also holds the record for days on vacation.
