NEW Stupid Republican Idea of the Day (Part 2)

Tan pants suit.

I could swear I saw that in The Little Rascals.

Obama Adultman is just going to do a politics.

Say what? Did I miss a memo? @Smapti, you taking paper out of my inbox again? Dude, we talked about this…

Fox ran a photoshopped image of the judge who signed the Individual 1 search warrant drinking with Ghislaine Matthews. The photo still had the watermark and a credit linking to the original image, without the judge.

Is their defense still that they are merely an entertainment network, and no reasonable person would believe any of the bullshit they peddle?

Lucky for them, there are a lot of unreasonable people out there. (I remember Hillary had a pretty spot-on word for those people.)

New Fox theory: Individual 1 didn’t pack those boxes himself, so how would he know what’s in them?

Also, Individual 1 is talking about 30 million pages of classified materials that Obama took with him. What is he talking about? Is this made of whole cloth, or is there some sliver of truth to it?

When he pulls things out of his ass, I don’t think they’re made of cloth.

Obama went to the National Archives after his presidency was over and, with their concurrence and permission, moved ~30 million pages of material from his administration, some of it classified, to a warehouse in Chicago where it has been waiting to be digitized and placed in his presidential library.

So there’s your sliver of truth.

The number of ways this is not anything like the Mar-A-Lago situation is left as an exercise for the reader.

ETA: I’m quite sure (though I have no positive knowledge) that the warehouse has security features necessary for storing those documents it houses which are classified.

Thanks for the explanation.

When even John Bolton is criticizing Individual 1 and defending Biden …

They have padlock technology.

Ah, the old “find someone to throw under the bus” ploy.

Also, Individual 1 is talking about 30 million pages of classified materials that Obama took with him. What is he talking about? Is this made of whole cloth, or is there some sliver of truth to it?

Ah, the old “spew some bullshit about Argle Bargle Obama” ploy

‘See! Obama gave our secrets to Chicago!
I gave them to country to be filled in later.
IT"S EXACTLY THE SAME!!!’
The Real DJT

And LOTS of duct tape. The most secure substance known to humankind.

Let’s not forget Bondo. It works for everything.

Naw, it’s all about the Flex Tape nowadays.

And here is the National Archive’s statement on the matter:

August 12, 2022 statement

The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) assumed exclusive legal and physical custody of Obama Presidential records when President Barack Obama left office in 2017, in accordance with the Presidential Records Act (PRA). NARA moved approximately 30 million pages of unclassified records to a NARA facility in the Chicago area where they are maintained exclusively by NARA. Additionally, NARA maintains the classified Obama Presidential records in a NARA facility in the Washington, DC, area. As required by the PRA, former President Obama has no control over where and how NARA stores the Presidential records of his Administration.

Thanks, Hoops! The substance was there but I had missed a few of the details - notably, that NARA was still in charge of the whole shebang, even as they’re making it easier for the Obama presidential library to digitize some of the documents - and that the classified records are still kept near D.C.

We’ll be seeing this statement on Hannity tonight, right?
