You know that panicked feeling when you show your friend a photo on your phone, and they start scrolling through your albums? Oh, well, neither do I… but I imagine it’s something like the cold sweat the Biden administration is in, as the Feds rifle in Joe’s Garage (apologies to Frank Zappa).
President Biden’s 2024 re-election team is worried that a Justice Department report on his retention of classified documents will unearth “embarrassing details,” according to a new report.
Attorney General Merrick Garland tapped special counsel Robert Hur to investigate the matter on Jan. 12, 2023, following FBI searches of Biden’s post-vice presidency Washington, DC, office and Delaware mansion for the sensitive files.
“Hey, Bob, I want to be realllly thorough…”
It all depends on whether he could see Garland winking over the phone.
More than a year later, the Biden camp anticipates Hur’s team will release its final report on the classified documents inquiry as soon as this week, with information and photos that could complicate the president’s re-election effort, Axios reported.
A spokesman for the Biden campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
We already know for sure that Biden was keeping classified files at the offices of his “think tank” (surely an oxymoron, when it comes to Biden?), as well at his home — including a box of classified files right where his crackhead son could riffle through them.
The FBI searched the office, home and Biden’s Rehoboth Beach residence between November 2022 and February 2023, and additional classified documents in the Wilmington location.
First son Hunter Biden had access to the files kept next to his dad’s 1967 Corvette Stingray, according to photos found on his abandoned laptop that were taken the same day he sent a threatening text to a Chinese associate that invoked his father to close a seven-figure business deal on July 30, 2017.
Another photo Hunter snapped earlier that year showed a box labeled “Important Doc’s [sic] + Photos.”
Biden can try and hand-wave it all away as “stray papers” all he wants — the issue is that American voters can see perfectly well the double standard at play, here.
Special counsel Jack Smith indicted former President Donald Trump in June 2023 for having also retained sensitive material at his Mar-a-Lago estate after leaving office in January 2021.

Yet Joe leaves classified files lying around for any old crackhead to trawl through and nothing happens.
Yet, anyway.
Perhaps as a sign of how worried Democrats are about the dirty deals of Biden Inc. coming to light, people are starting to get anonymous threats.
The Delaware computer repairman who went public with the contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop says his home was “swatted” Friday night.
“My home was swatted tonight, I was not home but the outstanding men and women of the Wilmington PD responded quickly and professionally,” John Paul Mac Isaac posted to X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, on Dec. 29. “All that was achieved was the wasted time of the Wilmington PD. NOTHING, let me repeat that, NOTHING will take me out of this fight! Cheers!”
Swatting is the act of making a false report to emergency services to prompt a response at a particular address.
The goal is to get authorities, particularly a SWAT team, to show up.

And for people to get hurt. Victims of swatting have been shot and killed in the past.
The machinery of the state being used to hound political opponents, attempts to get whistleblowers killed, while the nomenklatura and cronies get away with blatant criminality? America has become a true banana republic.
