In reporting on news of a federal indictment of former President Donald Trump, the UK Daily Mail posted a video of Joe Biden backing his Corvette into the garage which contained boxes of classified documents. But the next day the same publication reported on a leaked audio recording on which Trump allegedly admitted he did not declassify secret documents about a military scenario for attacking Iran, which he is said to have taken to his private residence in Florida.
That tape will likely be used by the prosecution to prove Trump lied about his authority to declassify secret documents after leaving office.
Regardless, the 37-count indictment is bound to increase the anger Trump supporters feel about this administration and their government overall. The indictment and trial of a former president can only divide the country further and ratchet-up the anger many Republicans feel — even Republicans who don’t favor a second term for Trump — about what they regard as a two-tier system of justice.
Many Republicans remain angry about how Hillary Clinton got a pass from then-FBI Director James Comey on her mishandling of classified documents. Comey said she didn’t intend to break the law. Try that excuse with a police officer if you are pulled over for speeding.
Fox News Digital reports a source has told the FBI that while Biden was vice president, he and family members allegedly took a $5 million bribe from the Burisma natural gas firm where son Hunter was on the board in exchange for certain U.S. policy decisions. On Friday, Biden was asked about it and replied “where’s the money?” A look at family bank records might answer that question.
