What’s Happening:
Joe Biden’s document scandal keeps heating up. Just a few days ago, it was only a stack of documents in his office at UPenn. But very quickly we learned that Biden was keeping classified documents in his garage. Yikes. The situation was getting so serious, that Merrick Garland himself had to appoint a special counsel to investigate.
You might remember that the DOJ appointed a special counsel to investigate Trump’s document case. A special counsel has a certain measure of independence. He can dig deep into Biden’s situation, without Garland or the usual DOJ flunkies breathing down his neck. And who did the DOJ pick to investigate old Joe? Why, a former Trump appointee!
From The Hill:
Attorney General Merrick Garland announced the appointment of Robert Hur as the special counsel… Hur, a Harvard and Stanford graduate, was nominated in 2017 by then-President Trump to serve as U.S. attorney for the District of Maryland and confirmed the following year, making him the chief federal law enforcement officer in the state. He resigned from the post in early 2021.
Before the appointment, Hur, 50, was an assistant U.S. attorney for the District of Maryland. He prosecuted gang violence, drug trafficking and firearm offenses, as well as financial crimes.
Wow. It looks like the man Garland picked to investigate Joe is a tough-on-crime, no-nonsense prosecutor. Robert Hur was selected by President Trump to serve as U.S. attorney in the state of Maryland. He served in that post from 2017 to 2021.
For Trump to have wanted this man to serve in such an important position speaks volumes to his record. It appears Hur made a name for himself going after gangs, drug trafficking, and firearm offenses. He even went after powerful politicians charged with crimes, including Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh, Police Commissioner Darryl De Sousa, and state Del. Cheryl Glenn.
They were all charged and convicted.
Hur is no wimp. He has a history of going hard after criminals and getting justice. There is a good chance this man will take a hard look at Joe Biden’s document scandals. He will be able to uncover every stone to find the facts. There might be more documents, squirreled away somewhere else. How many classified documents did Biden take after leaving the VP post?
Hur just might be the man to expose this scandal and hold old Joe accountable.
Key Takeaways:
- The DOJ appointed Robert Hur as special counsel to investigate Joe Biden’s document scandal.
- Hur was picked by Donald Trump to serve as U.S. attorney to Maryland from 2017-2021.
