Biden's Stolen Documents Story was Suppressed Until After Midterms: Snowden.

[Marener]

There is a timeline for Biden's documents. They were known before the midterms and purposely covered up for political purposes by the deep state.

There's no cover up because the DoJ doesn't announce ongoing investigations. That's standard practice for everyone. Presidents down to regular people.

He was a data analyst contractor that stole a bunch of classified documents. He was not a fucking spy.

Once he left he lost all access to everything.

Taking classified documents seems to be the in thing now.

 

[pknopp]

Snowden wasn't a spy in the traditional sense of the word. He didn't steal that information at the behest of the Russians or anyone else for that matter. He was just an IT guy who had issues with the collection programs that came about because of the Patriot Act. Were he a "spy" he was a terrible one. He released that information publicly and killed his access to any subsequent collection.

Using him for what exactly? He's not some intelligence genius. Again, Snowden was just an IT guy, not an intel guru.

He had a problem with Clapper lying under oath.

It's amazing how you can defend the double standard.

You haven’t found a double standard yet.

The raid of Mar a Lago was necessary to retrieve all the classified documents. It couldn’t wait.

But whether it’s Trump or Biden, the DoJ doesn’t just go announce the presence of ongoing investigations.

LOL. Even Democrats are seeing the double standard. You just can't see it through your partisan glasses.

You've yet to point out a double standard.

Show me what Democrat has seen a double standard. Maybe they can explain it better than you.

Ok. Doesnt change what his role was at NSA.

 

[Couchpotato]

NSA "agents"? There are no such things as NSA "agents" Snowden worked as a contractor for NSA via Booz Allen Hamilton, he was NOT a spy in any sense of the word. He was a sys admin. But even if he did his information is decades old at this point. His understanding of the inner workings of the IC were extremely limited 20 years ago, now they are essentially zero.

What exactly is there to disagree with here? NSA agents arent a thing. I worked in SIGINT 26 years (including 2 tours at NSA and 3 years as a contractor) I think I'd have met one. And Snowden's "insight" is over 20 years old. Any updated information he has would have been fed to him by the Russian Government. Though why they would do that is beyond me.

Interesting that no one had any reporting on actual classified documents found in Bidens possession, but everyone was reporting on the so-called secret investigation into Trump long before any documents were ever found.

I think the first story about Trump’s documents was in the WaPo in February 2022 which was a month after he turned over documents to NARA.

OMG.
I'm NOT TALKING about him still giving them information from his time with NSA and CIA. Nowhere did I say that. If these are the interpretive skills you had during you "26 year SIGINT" career I'm concerned for our national security!

I SAID...essentially....that Snowden's CREDENTIALS are of value to the Russians. And they would have every reason to want to employ those skills and develop them further in service of Russia. He would have been able to predict how the NSA would change and upgrade it's protocols, software and hardware as a response to the security breach. He would have had a better idea than most Russian intelligence specialists about how to hack American systems. And with Russian education and training over the past 10 years he would make a terrific consultant building upon the same work he did in the U.S. albeit in whatever angle the Russians saw fit.

The opposite has also happened. Former Russian intelligence folks have been employed by the west in generally the same work they did in Russia.

Which deep state was that ? The one that’s turning over all the documents to the DOJ ?

the deep state isnkr doing…people that discovered xiden’s hidden stash snitched him out…they weren’t govt employees

I think the first story about Trump’s documents was in the WaPo in February 2022 which was a month after he turned over documents to NARA.

that's because it was a non-story at the time....nobody was all that surprised that a former President had some documents at his home, where a SCIF was located....it wasn't a story until Xiden used that as a pretext to raid his home to get access to his attorney-client priv documents and other personal documents

Really ? You don’t think they consulted him first ? Ha ha, what a simpleton.
Btw, they turned them over to govt employees.

No, they called the NA right away...yes they did, they snitched him out to the law. Hence why a Special Prosecutor was appointed to investigate his crimes.

Are you saying that the White House appointed counsel and his White House legal team are NOT a govt appointee positions and not govt employees ?

You need to rethink that bogus statement. Your bogus “deep state“ you Humpers keep referring to are all govt employees according to you delusional hillbillies.

I am saying the lawyer that went to his Penn-Biden office wasn't White House Counsel. It was a private attorney.

https://www.cnn.com/2023/01/10/politics/biden-classified-documents-iran-ukraine-united-kingdom-beau-funeral/index.html

The source told CNN that a personal lawyer for Biden was closing out the downtown DC office that Biden used as part his work with the University of Pennsylvania. The lawyer saw a manila folder that was labeled “personal,” opened the envelope and noticed there were classified documents inside. The lawyer closed the envelope and called NARA, the source said.

His IT skills? That's what you seem to be having trouble grasping. He was just a Sys Admin. So unless the Russians were really hard up for Sys Admin's who experience stopped 10 years ago.... His value to the Russian is as I said before is purely for propaganda and to poke at the US. Nothing more. Do you really think any one person has that big an influence over a country's IC? Even if Snowden were the best analyst at NSA his value once his access was gone was not that great.
