Huh, I dunno if he changed or I did, but I keep noticing things he should know, or weird false equivalences that I just happen to know aren't right simply because I follow the news. "I remember whitewater." That's a meaningless thing to bring up - Ken Starr's investigation was empowered by the Independent Counsel Law, which in part due to his excesses was allowed to expire in 1999. It literally hasn't been relevant for about 25 years. "Special counsel" today means a different thing entirely. The weird false equivalence between Biden's classified documents and Trump's. Anyone who ever casually follows the new should know that the primary difference is that, when requested, Biden cooperated and returned everything that was missing, whereas Trump held onto his, and furthermore went to lengths to disguise how many he had. There was no raid of Biden's home because there was no need for a raid on Biden's home. Having the documents wasn't criminal, keeping them is. There's no double standard. This isn't the first time I've watched Jon post-return and thought ".....did he change or did I?" Because almost every time he professes ignorance on things any reasonably informed person should know (like earlier in the episode he didn't know that pardons could include crimes that "may have been committed" ...dawg that was literally the text in the most famous pardon of all time, Ford's pardon of Nixon).

*Some background on Sally Yates:* She was the acting US Attorney General (head of the Justice Department) beginning on 2017 Jan 20, when Donald Trump took office. She soon made headlines for refusing to obey the "Muslim ban" that Trump had campaigned on, saying that it was unconstitutional and not defensible in court. Trump fired her on Jan 30. In May 2017, Yates testified before Congress that Trump's choice for National Security Adviser, Michael Flynn-who had been fired from the post in February-had connections to Russian officials that could have made him a target for blackmail and thus a security risk to the country. He had lied to Vice President Mike Pence and other White House officials about conversations he had had with Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak, she said. During her brief time as acting Attorney General, Yates had informed the White House counsel of this information, which led to Flynn's firing.

I don't have a problem with the fact that he took classified documents. I have a problem with the notion that the system is so porous that *it is possible to take classified documents* and I really hope that has been fixed! But once someone says "dude, I think you might have a document or two, we need them back" - at that point, you're done. Any behaviour *after that* is criminal, unless it is full and complete cooperation, transparency, honesty and going beyond the call of duty. Denying possession, hiding possession, obfuscating possession, lying about possession, moving possessions around etc are the problem. That's the difference between the Trump case and the other Executive Branch cases (Biden & Pence).

You could say its dementia, but issue is he along the whole Dem establishment (including the media) denied having the issue. And when the DOJ said he is of the hook due to him being senile old man they were crucified. So you can choose if he is senile and not guilty or not senile or as guilty as Trump. Question is what were Bidens aids doing to not know of the docs though.

No, I don't think she actually believes what she said. I think she's one of those people that doesn't want you to know an asteroid is on its way to incinerate all life on the planet and would rather everyone find out at the last minute to suffer the least. She's just not interested in promoting fear, justified or not.

She admits to racial disparities and falling short of its promise to the American people. But to condemn most of our institutions as corrupt goes too far and sets the stage for extreme movements to move in with even worse behaviors, as I see it.

Actually 3 bankers in Delaware the corporate center of the USA were charged and convicted. Their fault was to steal from the wrong mortgage owners. Do not steal from those who can eat your lunch. Wilmington Trust was the bank. King of High Appraisal for collateral and low appraisals for insurance. The DJT dance.

The DOJ set a precedence on protesting when they didn't go after all of those people destroying cities in BLM manufactured protests the summer prior to the January 6 incident. Cities were literally set on fire...people felt it was well within their right to enter the capitol as a peaceful protest. I'm not saying that either situation was right. In fact I don't support any of those protests, but the hypocrisy is there. If you let people burn down government buildings and local businesses then what do you expect?
