While the Department of Justice works overtime to imprison top political foe and 2024 presidential poll leader, former President Donald Trump, over mishandling classified documents, Special Counsel Robert Hur plans to let President Joe Biden off scot-free.
Hur's decision not to charge Biden while the DOJ continues to target Trump only confirms those suspicions.
Neither the article nor the accompanying TV segment made any mention of why Biden's lawyers, who claimed they stumbled across the documents, were snooping around the Penn Biden Center office in Washington, D.C., in the first place.
Even though investigators did not get fully involved until 2023, CNN echoed this talking point by claiming that the "Key differences" between Biden's document scandal and Trump's was that Biden "Quickly notified the National Archives of the materials found in his possession." CNN did not mention the other key differences between Biden's and Trump's case, like the fact that Trump's documents were discovered on a private, Secret Service-protected property while Biden's were found in a busy public building and easily accessible garage.
Biden's information cache warranted the same level of investigation and transparency that Trump suffered.
Biden harbored classified documents from his time as vice president in a box by his 1967 Corvette Stingray and his "Think tank" office for years, yet it was Trump who became the subject of the corporate media and the FBI's public scorn and could soon face jail time.
The DOJ's treatment of Biden compared to its treatment of Trump only furthers a majority of Americans' belief that the U.S. has a two-tiered system of justice.
