His plea deal had absolutely nothing to do with the laptop.I said she got a pass. I agree that she wasn't charged!
They didn't charge her. All you are saying is that you think she deserved the pass.
You didn't address it at all, you did whatabout-Hunter's-Plea-Deal. You didn't address the actions of the FBI, the DOJ, or the NARA at all.
Again, I ask you:
What do you think favoritism is?
Okay, that's your opinion and you're doubling down on it. It's sooooo bogus to you that you did whatabout-Hunter's-Plea-Deal. Does this mean you think the FBI unfairly targetted Hunter with criminal charges from "bogus" evidence on that laptop?
Seems like you aren't aware of this:After the FBI raided Mar-a-Lago? LoL, yes, they "gave them back" LoL. There was no rush to collect them on the part of the FBI, the DOJ, or NARA. In fact, Biden was allowed to just hold on to those documents until after the 2022 election was well settled. There were pre-election headlines for raiding Mar-a-Lago, but quiet delay and collect them later for Biden's stash.
I'm talking about how documents have been handled in the past - before Trump was targetted and Mar-a-Lago raided. The Mar-a-Lago raid changed things for everyone.
"As has been widely reported since the Mar-a-Lago raid last year, by outlets including The Washington Post and Insider, Trump in 2018 signed a national security bill that upgraded the seriousness of mishandling classified material from a misdemeanor to a felony.
Trump signed legislation that year that extended section 702 of the FISA Amendments Act, part of which included a change to 18 U.S. Code §1924, increasing the penalty for "unauthorized removal and retention of classified documents or material" from one to five years.
According to Cornell Law School's Legal Information Institute, this upgrades the offense from a misdemeanor to a Class E felony.
Before the legislation was signed, Trump had repeatedly attacked 2016 presidential race rival Hillary Clinton over claims that she had mishandled classified information; she was never charged.
While we don't yet know what legislation Trump will be charged under, the similarity of the wording in this bill to the offense that Jack Smith has been investigating strongly suggests he could be charged with this particular felony."
Fact Check: Did Trump sign into law felony for which he's indicted?
Trump announced on Thursday that he was being indicted over an investigation into classified documents.

Sounds to me like he's been hoisted by his own petard.
I'm pretty sure you're the one who threw Hunter Biden into the mix.You are correct that the trial is not finished. I was responding to Metis, but, looking back, I notice that you said:
You think Trump's guilty - so don't play dumb. The thread topic is about the question of who should be given a pass. Do you think Trump should be given a pass?
Trump has been treated with kid gloves, if you ask me. The guy commits crimes almost as often as he eats meals. The fact anyone thinks the bias is against him is absurd to me. They've been nicely asking for the documents back for well over a year. The raid only came after he lied and obstructed over and over for like 18 months. All he had to do was give the documents back when asked. He couldn't even do that much.
Can't wait to see how the trial turns out.
