    Biden is a lying sack of shit and the DOJ is complicit in covering up
    his crimes.

    Special Counsel Robert Hur could release report in Biden classified docs
    case as soon as this week

    President Biden's team reportedly is fearing photos included in Special
    Counsel Robert Hur's imminent report on the handling of classified
    documents could impact his 2024 re-election bid.

    Axios reported that Biden's aides do not expect criminal charges as a
    result of the investigation, but they are concerned about potentially embarrassing photos included in Hur's expected report that could be
    released as soon as this week. The images could show how Biden stored classified materials, which were discovered in late 2022 in the garage
    of Biden's Delaware home, as well as in a private office he used. The classified documents were carried over from Biden's time as former
    President Obama's vice president.

    Biden's aides told Axios that they are fearful former President Trump's campaign could use the photos against the Democrat incumbent ahead of
    their likely 2024 rematch.

    Trump himself is facing more than 40 counts, including obstruction of
    justice and willful retention of national defense information, for
    improperly storing classified documents at his private residence at
    Mar-a-Lago in Florida after leaving the White House following a probe by Special Counsel Jack Smith.

    BIDEN INTERVIEWED BY SPECIAL COUNSEL ABOUT CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS

    With Hur's report looming, Biden's aides are concerned Trump's campaign
    could attempt to contrast the handling of the two investigations.

    Hur, a former U.S. attorney nominated by Trump in 2017 and a former
    clerk for conservative Chief Justice William Rehnquist, is obligated to
    write a report about the investigation, and Biden's aides told Axios
    they expect the report could come as soon as this week, though the exact
    timing of its release is unknown.

    Biden has defended the storing of classified documents in the past.

    "By the way, my Corvette is in a locked garage, so it's not like they're sitting out on the street," he once said.

    In a CBS "60 Minutes' interview last fall, Attorney General Merrick
    Garland vowed to make public a special counsel's report related to
    another matter – the one related to Hunter Biden – "to the extent
    permissible under the law," and promised to explain the "decisions to
    prosecute or not prosecute, and their strategic decisions along the
    way."

    10 UNANSWERED QUESTIONS ABOUT BIDEN'S CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS

    "Usually, the special counsels have testified at the end of their
    reports, and I expect that that will be the case here," Garland said.

    The Justice Department told Axios that Garland is also committed to
    releasing Hur's report as well.

    Anthony Coley, a former senior adviser to Garland, accused the Biden
    team of slow-walking discovery in the case.

    "Against the backdrop of former President Trump's indictment on charges
    of willful and deliberate retention of classified documents, the Biden
    team's drip, drip, drip of information made the discoveries seem even
    worse," he wrote in an op-ed.

    Somebody please explain how they charge one person for something and not
    charge another for exactly the same thing. All other circumstances aside
    how does that happen?

    It was apples and oranges. One was president and was allowed to take
    classified documents the other was vp and a senator and wasn’t allowed
    to take classified documents. But the key difference was one was a
    Republican and the other was a Democrat.
