FBI doubted probable cause for Mar-a-Lago raid but pushed forward amid pressure from Biden DOJ, emails reveal

So, let's review:

Some FBI officials had cold feet about raiding the expresident's home, due to Trump's fantasy about declassifying the documents telepathically.

Turns out they were wrong. The warrant was obtained, and they found exactly what the warrant said they would find, exactly where the warrant said they would find it. And to this day no evidence exists anywhere that Trump declassified any of it.

The end.
 
And the reason WHY was because Biden was too old and senile to be able to face those charges. Why did you admit the "why"?

Oh my what a turn around, did you finally get it into your stupid head that prosecutor that filed declination to prosecute...found that Biden should not be prosecuted?

Thats measurable progress, even if slow.

But now to discuss the nonsense you followed it up with.

NO Hur did not find that Biden was too old to face charges, he found that jury would not find him guilty beyond reasonable doubt, because they would give him the benefit of...wait for it...DOUBT. Why? Because the evidence of the state of mind was lacking.
 
The state of mind isn't on trial, it's the fact that Hur did find evidence many times and chose not to prosecute.
His perogative.
But not enough evidence. And he found evidence that contradicted the idea of willful retention.

As clearly stated in the report on both counts.

You guys have your half truths on life support, at this point.
 
PRA stipulates that Trump had full control over his records, even kept by the Archivist.

Specifically, the PRA:

  • Establishes public ownership of all Presidential records and defines the term Presidential records.
  • Requires that Vice-Presidential records be treated in the same way as Presidential records.
  • Places the responsibility for the custody and management of incumbent Presidential records with the President.
  • Requires that the President and his staff take all practical steps to file personal records separately from Presidential records.
  • Allows the incumbent President to dispose of records that no longer have administrative, historical, informational, or evidentiary value, once the views of the Archivist of the United States on the proposed disposal have been obtained in writing.
  • Establishes in law that any incumbent Presidential records (whether textual or electronic) held on courtesy storage by the Archivist remain in the exclusive legal custody of the President and that any request or order for access to such records must be made to the President, not NARA.
  • Establishes that Presidential records automatically transfer into the legal custody of the Archivist as soon as the President leaves office.
  • Establishes a process by which the President may restrict and the public may obtain access to these records after the President leaves office; specifically, the PRA allows for public access to Presidential records through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) beginning five years after the end of the Administration, but allows the President to invoke as many as six specific restrictions to public access for up to twelve years.
  • Codifies the process by which former and incumbent Presidents conduct reviews for executive privilege prior to public release of records by NARA (which had formerly been governed by Executive order 13489).
  • Establishes procedures for Congress, courts, and subsequent Administrations to obtain “special access” to records from NARA that remain closed to the public, following a privilege review period by the former and incumbent Presidents; the procedures governing such special access requests continue to be governed by the relevant provisions of E.O. 13489.
  • Establishes preservation requirements for official business conducted using non-official electronic messaging accounts: any individual creating Presidential records must not use non-official electronic messaging accounts unless that individual copies an official account as the message is created or forwards a complete copy of the record to an official messaging account. (A similar provision in the Federal Records Act applies to federal agencies.)
  • Prevents an individual who has been convicted of a crime related to the review, retention, removal, or destruction of records from being given access to any original records.

The PRA requires that all presidential records be turned over to the archives at the end of their term.

That clearly didn’t happen.

Biden had to follow that rule. Mar a Lago is enormous. Biden had small houses.
