It’s been weeks since news of the incident involving sensitive materials and Joe Biden first surfaced. During that time, the people of the United States realized that Biden’s attorneys ‘found’ them in a mysterious manner just a few days before the midterm elections in 2022.
The sensitive materials were discovered stashed in a few different locations. The first one was found in a “lock box” that was located in a closet at the Penn Biden Center in Washington, District of Columbia. One more was discovered in the residence of Biden in Wilmington, Delaware. Then, a second cache was discovered in his garage, this time in what seemed to be crates next to his cherished 1967 Corvette Stingray.
Biden’s classified documents had been shuffled out at the end of his vice presidency. One mystery woman, Kathy Chung, then a Biden aide, was questioned by law enforcement over her role moving the boxes of docs from the vice president’s office. Chung’s employment was secured on the strength of Hunter Biden’s recommendation, which was a happy coincidence. During her time working in the Vice President’s office, she had amassed a “treasure trove” of contact information for some of the most well-known and influential persons in the nation. Hunter was given this information. In addition to that, she copied him on the “intelligence briefings” for the Vice President. Additionally, she is a “ghost” on the internet..
The Penn Biden Center’s board of directors is a true who’s who of people who have a say on foreign policy. Current Secretary of State Antony Blinken served as the Penn Biden Center’s inaugural managing director. Steven Richetti, a White House advisor, took over as his replacement in this position. He was followed by Dr. Michael Carpenter, a managing director who rose to prominence during the initial Trump impeachment proceedings.
Dr. Carpenter, a specialist in Russia and Ukraine, undoubtedly has information on Joe and Hunter Biden. He participated in the Trump impeachment ruse from behind the scenes as well. He collaborated with Eric Ciaramella, the putative “whistleblower.” When Joe Biden boasted about persuading Ukraine to dismiss the prosecutor looking into the gas firm paying his son Hunter Biden, he stood at his side. He oversaw the Penn Biden Center, where Joe Biden’s top-secret papers were kept.
Therefore, there is more than enough reason to wonder whether it was a “inside job” when you consider the suspect political timing, the unpopularity of the Democratic president, the murky circumstances surrounding how such a scandal occurred, the fact that his administration raided former President Donald Trump over a related issue, and the prompt appointment of a Special Counsel by one of the most politicized attorneys general in American history.
Congressman Matt Gaetz from Florida has carried out this action. He publicly questioned if that was the case on Wednesday.
There is a part of this that feels like the Democrats are getting rid of Joe Biden, according to Gaetz.
“I don’t know that that’s the case, but I don’t know that it’s not,” he added.
“But just as Joe Biden is hardening the cement around his decision to run for president again, they start looking for what classified documents might have been tucked away eight years ago,” Gaetz noted.
It is unknown what is in the classified documents discovered at the Penn Biden Center and at Joe Biden’s Wilmington Delaware home. However, CNN has reported that the classified documents involved Ukraine.
“Among the classified documents from Joe Biden’s time as vice president discovered in a private office last fall are US intelligence memos and briefing materials that covered topics including Ukraine, Iran and the United Kingdom,” a source told CNN.
“A total of 10 documents with classification markings were found last year in Biden’s private academic office and they were dated between 2013 and 2016,” the report added.
Donald Trump, Biden’s potential 2024 rival, thinks he knows exactly what is in the classified documents stash.
“I think they knew long before November 2,” Trump told John Solomon on his podcast from January 11.
Trump added, “I think he knew probably right from the beginning and I think a lot of it had to do with Ukraine, because that was the papers he kept. And no, I think they knew about this for a long time and they didn’t do anything about it.”
When asked how documents from Biden’s vice presidency might “change the equation” in regards to Special Counsel Jack Smith’s probe into the Mar-a-Lago documents, Trump said, “Well, I think it totally changes that.”
“I was perfect under the Presidential Records Act,” Trump added. “I did absolutely nothing wrong.”
The FBI agents had seized over 11,000 documents and photographs without classified markings from Trump’s resort, along with about 100 documents marked ‘classified’ or ‘top secret.’ Trump has argued that he declassified these materials when he left office.
Trump also said that the FBI should raid Biden’s properties, as well as those belonging to his son Hunter Biden.
“What about all of these places that he’s got?” Trump asked. “What about his house? What about Hunter’s house? You know, who’s going to go in there like they did with me? Who’s gonna do that?”
There is no evidence of a “smoking gun” that this was an inside job. However, given that the Democratic Party never holds itself accountable, nor does it do anything without a calculated reason, the Biden lawyers’ sudden “discovery” of the classified documents that were missing for years has veteran political observers rightly asking questions.
