Biden has admitted, three (3) times, that he owns the classified documents that were illegally stored in multiple non-secure locations, a violation of federal law.
Some date back to when he was a senator and could not de-classify documents.
Not as a Senator. Their access to such material is limited to the SCIF at the Capitol to which I already provided the rules. If people were bringing him stuff at his house as a Senator to look at, then he was breaking the law at that time.
What we do know. Senator Biden was in possession of documents illegally kept at his house. There is no other time I can be sure that a crime was being committed because of the plenary powers given to the POTUS and VP to classify and/or declassify materials and the fact that according to that same 2009 executive order they also maintain their clearances for life. Now as I said that doesn't mean that no crime was being committed, it is possible that there was, but we need more information to show that.

But you are assuming those documents 1) have been there since he was a senator. 2) were put there by him. and 3) he knew about them being there.... this is the same guy you claim is so senile he cant tie his shoes...
Additionally, you remained silent while Trump 1) knowingly had documents that belonged to National Archives, 2) refused a request to return them, 3) Obstructed Justice because he refused a lawful subpoena to return them and the only the government could get them back was coming to get them with a warrant.
Right?

Is it not very possible that at some time when Biden was VP, he said hey, I remember some documentation on this issue from back when I was a senator, go get me those documents... and I declassify them if they are classified.
Then those documents got left behind by the aid who went to get them and have been shuffled place to place since then without Biden's knowledge? All a Defense attorney has to do is show that is possible and it becomes what us lawyers call REASONABLE DOUBT!

I am not assuming anything. I am using the information provided in the articles. And I am not assuming I am coming to a logical conclusion from the information provided.
What we know.
1. Documents were illegally kept at Biden's house since the time he was in the Senate.
2. Senators do not have access to the material but in one place (a SCIF in the basement of the Capitol).
3. The rules of that SCIF are documented.
4. If others brought the documents with them to his house it was illegal (2003 Classified materials and handling EO signed by Bush and the law it refers to both list this as illegal).
5. If he did not report them for bringing the documents to his house it was illegal (Same law as before).
6. If he allowed them to leave the documents at his house it was illegal. (Same law as before).
7. It is unlikely that others brought the documents to his house. (simple conclusion from the information provided, not an "assumption").
8. The only person with access to the SCIF in that house was the (then) Senator Biden himself.
Basically, we know a crime was committed. Those documents could not be there from that time without a crime being committed. And we can conclude who put the documents there from the information. Reasonable jury will find this to be enough to convict, well me, if I had done this. It is my conclusion that a reasonable person can conclude the same for Brandon.
