ANALYSIS – While the Donald Trump classified documents saga is embarrassing in its own right, it appears to be more ego-related than anything else.
Trump thought he could take them and he did – a lot of them.
Not so with Joe Biden's similar saga, which, while it involves less volume, could involve son, Hunter Biden and Communist China.
While in no way excusing him, Trump doesn't seem to have had any other motive than ego.
That doesn't change the potential damage to national security they may have caused.
However, despite unhinged partisan commentary at the saga's outset speculating that Trump was selling these documents to foreigners, it appears there was absolutely no truth to that nonsense whatsoever.
While an Intelligence Community (IC) damage assessment is ongoing, as it is with Joe Biden's unsecured classified documents, and now Mike Pence's as well, there is no reporting of anything being compromised by Trump.
At least not yet.
Meanwhile, Biden's mishandling of highly classified documents brings more realistic speculation and concerns, especially due to Hunter Biden's potential access to these documents and his close ties to the Chinese communist regime.
This is why Senator Ted Cruz, R-Texas, is now asking that the FBI search all locations, residences and offices Hunter has used or is now using.
I would add that the same be done for all homes and offices used by Joe Biden as well, especially his Rehoboth Beach house.
The FBI's failure to search that beach house borders on criminal negligence and professional malpractice.
But back to Hunter.
As Newsmax reported:
“It seems he [President Biden] leaves classified documents wherever he goes. And we also know that Hunter Biden at times was — declared his residence to be those very same places,” Cruz said on Fox News Channel's “Sunday Morning Futures.”
“I also believe it is critical for the FBI to search Hunter Biden's homes, home and office residences to make sure there are no classified documents there, given all the evidence that's piling up. We need to ascertain who's had access to what and when.”
Cruz also was asked about an email allegedly written by Hunter Biden to a business partner that contained information about Ukraine seemingly taken directly from classified information given to senators before they travel overseas.
“Well, the one thing we know for sure is Hunter Biden didn't write that. Hunter Biden is not an expert on Ukraine, he's not an expert on Eastern Europe, he's not an expert on Russia, but that email did help get him on the board of Burisma,” Cruz said. “It did help him get paid $83,000 a month because it showed a level of expertise, not coming from him, but he got it somewhere.”
While the wild speculation aimed at Trump selling secrets to the highest bidder was pure left-wing ranting, and some residual Russia collusion delusion, the concerns about Joe and Hunter, and dangerous liaisons with China, appear more grounded in facts and evidence.
Hunter had intimate business relations with agents of the Chinese regime and access to all the locations Joe may have stashed highly classified documents.
It's not a stretch to see the links and risks.
It is time the FBI searches all Biden homes and offices, including everywhere Hunter has been and Joe Biden's beach house.

“The FBI’s failure to search that beach house borders on criminal negligence and professional malpractice.”
Confucius say……………
Rotten, dirty little brown road apples don’t fall far from the head horse’s rear pituitary gland.
“Not so with Joe Biden’s similar saga, which, while it involves less volume”
That is the impression they’ve tried to create, but in point of fact, we don’t know. The government tells us how many boxes were taken from Mar-a-Lago, but we don’t know how much of that was classified material versus other stuff. At times they talked about pages, but not in aggregate, just specific pieces again to create the illusion of a large volume of classified materials.
What do we know about the volume of classified material in Biden’s possession? Nothing really. First off, what we have been told is very piecemeal and incomplete. For example, “six items” could mean anything. Second, all they’ve gotten is what Biden’s personal attorneys have provided, or left behind after having months or more to do what they wanted without any oversight by the FBI. Third, no one has searched the Biden’s other two homes, other offices, or the 1,850 boxes of documents from the Biden’s years as VP that are kept hidden at the University of Deleware.
Don’t know if they’ll find any documents or not. But if Biden’s there, one thing they’re guaranteed NOT to find……………..
Any signs of brain wave activity.
Can’t say I agree with this. I firmly believe Biden’s Homes have been searched and researched ( FBI conducted searches months ago and we are one finding out now) so I firmly believe that ALL Classified Materials have been found; and any that contain incriminating information about the Bidens have been Destroyed.
What/Where needs to be Searched is the University of Delaware where Biden has been stashing materials from his time as Vice President (most likely also his time as a Senator) that nobody has access to
Biden should already be in jail.
None dare call it treason.
