It looks like the ship is being towed. If so it's more evidence of Russia's outdated and failed equipment. This war is taking a severe toll on Russia economically. It's also uncovering Russia's military ineptness.

Justice Department, with concurrence of Biden's legal team, searched the president's Wilmington home on Friday and found six more classified documents, some stemming back to his days in the Senate, Bauer says. The search lasted more than 12 hours and covered the whole premises.
Yes, Biden is cooperating, but this is not good. _________________ ¡Hala Madrid!

(Matt Gaetz: I Know Who's Behind Biden Document Scandal)
Quote:
Matt Gaetz pushed a bizarre conspiracy theory about Joe Biden and Gavin Newsom. Cenk Uygur, Rayy Vana, and Lance from The Serfs discuss on The Young Turks.
"President Joe Biden received full-throated defense over the classified document controversy from a curious place Thursday: proud Ultra-MAGA Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz appearing on Fox News.
The Deep State and Biden’s own “democrat lawyers” are to blame for Biden’s classified document possession, Gaetz suggested during an appearance on The Ingraham Angle, suggesting a bizarre conspiracy theory that this was an inside job. And in case this idea was lost on Fox News viewers, “Inside Job” was included in a lower third even before Gaetz suggested as much.
Biden said Thursday he has “no regrets” about his handling of classified documents and told reporters there is nothing scandalous about the situation. “I think you’re gonna find there’s nothing there,” Biden said. “I have no regrets. I’m following what the lawyers have told me they want me to do. It’s exactly what we’re doing. There’s no ‘there’ there.”

Biden& team has effed up, no doubt about it. Yes, there’s an over classification issue, but the reality is his office knew or was required to know the rules. And they failed to properly handle and submit classified documents. Full stop. _________________ “We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim.

Is that the same as trump willfully concealing and lying about concealing top secret information that has monetary and extortion value? Of course not. We should also probably find out the nature of the documents and their security profile before we get too excited. _________________ “We must always take sides.

I am so disappointed in Biden.
He’s obviously just like Trump when stealing docs he shouldn’t have had.
You can forget the DOJ prosecuting Trump now.
Is Biden that stupid, senile, or both?
Or are his handlers a bunch of crooks?

That’s effin’ nonsense. The two situations are not even close in regards to motive, scope and how the two handled the situation. This kind of ill-informed comment does nothing to further constructive discussion. _________________ You thought God was an architect, now you know

Chill out. I meant, he was doing similar things. Both keeping things they shouldn’t have. Both being investigated. Sure, Trump lied and move them.
(DOJ will resist Jim Jordan's subpoenas prying into criminal investigation of the insurrection)
Quote:
Most will recall when Congressman Jim Jordan was asked about whether he talked with then-presidents Donald Trump on the morning of the insurrection, he mumbled and fumbled and yammered and stammered his way though an non-answer, pretending he couldn't recall. (Watch Jim Jordan's yammering and stammering here: . Thereafter, his phone records showed he did, in fact, talked with Trump for a full 10 minutes on the morning of the Trump-launched attack on the US Capitol designed to stop the certification of Joe Biden's election win. After that call (that Jordan ultimately denied), Jordan took to the floor of the House and objected to the certification of Joe Biden's win.
Now, Jordan is heading up a committee that many are calling the 'obstruction of justice committee.' Jordan thinks he can issue subpoenas designed to pry into the DOJ criminal investigation of the insurrection, an investigation that, of necessity, must involve scrutiny of the four members of Congress who criminally defied congressional subpoenas in their determination not to testify about Trump's crimes. Jordan is one of the representatives who defied a congressional subpoena.
Well now, DOJ is indicating that it is not likely to comply with Jordan's subpoenas that would comprise an ongoing criminal investigation.

After 4 years of Trump. It's nice to have a qualified, reliable, and boring President again.
I get there is a document "scandal". But this is nothing compared to what we dealt with under Trump.
No more tweets about bombing other countries. No more daily race baiting tweets either. And the scandals. Oh man, the dangerous, premeditated, criminal scandals. It was exhausting. 4 straight years of it. From day 1 to the end.
I like my Presidents boring. Staff the agencies. Fight climate change. And back economic policy that improves the lives of everyday Americans. _________________ "Every hurt is a lesson, and every lesson makes you better”
(Israelis stage giant protest against Netanyahu court reform - BBC News)
Quote:
An estimated 110,000 people have packed the streets of Tel Aviv, in one of Israel's biggest anti-government protests in the past decade.
The rallies spread across the city centre as banners were hoisted calling for an end to the ruling coalition, which is the most right-wing and religious-nationalist in Israel's history.
Organisers say they are trying to stop a "coup" taking place against the system of government.
