Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe argued Friday that the special counsel’s report on President Biden’s retention of classified documents while vice president has “nauseating similarities” with findings from the agency’s 2016 investigation into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s emails.
While special counsel Robert Hur’s 388-page report, released Thursday, found Biden “willfully” kept the documents after leaving the White House, no charges were brought against the president. Hur, in his release, remarked that Biden is “a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory,” which has drawn scrutiny from Democrats and the White House.

Comparisons have also been made between Clinton and Trump, who is facing 40 charges centered on the mishandling of classified records and attempts to obstruct the government from retrieving them after he left the White House, but both have denounced the parallel.
On Friday, speaking to members of the National Rifle Association in Pennsylvania, the former president argued that if Biden — and Clinton by proxy — weren’t charged, he shouldn’t be either.
Commentary:
True, but Hillary has a criminal instinct second to none.
She erased incriminating evidence and got away with it. (Which seems far worse than an ex-Prez hanging on to old documents). Jake Sullivan was implicated in the State Dept., emails.

The president has different legal rights and obligations regarding documents than the Vice President and other elected officials do.
The situation with Biden reminds me a lot of James Comey and Hillary. Comey laid out a series of legal violations by Hillary , but then said in spite of this strong evidence of illegal actions, that no reasonable prosecutor would take the case.
With Biden , the report also indicates strong evidence of Theft from a Senate SCIF and illegal retention of higgly classided materals as VP, but recommends that no action be taken because Joe is elderly and forgetful. The implication being that no reasonable prosecutor would take the case.
It sure looks like there is a different standard for prominent Democrats compared to Trump or Republicans.
Probably none of the powers that be care about the court of public opinion on such prosecutions.
It wasn’t Comey's, nor Hur's call to make and neither should be allowed to decide to NOT bring charges against those they investigated. Rgar should be left to the DoJ and Congress..
The FBI is just another tentacle of the DNCPUSA just as the national lamestream “media” is. Democrats are immune from going to jail.
McCabe is such an insufferable cocky little toad.
Ironic- McCabe also wasn’t charged despite lying 4 times under oath ....
