When former President Donald Trump was indicted over classified documents, several prominent conservatives immediately asked about his successor.
Despite his early crowing about irresponsibility, President Joe Biden remains under investigation himself for his sloppy record keeping, and Republicans want to know where that investigation stands in light of the Trump news."Today is indeed a dark day for the United States of America," tweeted House Speaker Kevin McCarthy ."It is unconscionable for a president to indict the leading candidate opposing him. Joe Biden kept classified documents for decades.
The White House did not respond to a request for comment from the Washington Examiner regarding the investigation, while a Department of Justice spokesperson said,"Special counsel Hur's office will decline to comment. The investigation remains ongoing." Before those documents were discovered, Biden joined in condemning Trump's document handling last summer, wondering aloud"how anyone could be that irresponsible."
Many observers also noted that the Trump indictment came just hours after members of the House Oversight Committee announced that Biden's alleged “criminal bribery scheme” is tied to payments reportedly made by the Ukrainian energy company Burisma to members of the Biden family.
