MAGA Fail 🧦 ♟️ 🖍️

House Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer argued in a Jan. 11 letter that the Archives kept quiet the discovery of Biden’s classified materials days before the 2022 midterm elections. Meanwhile, Comer said, the Archives 'instigated a public and unprecedented FBI raid at Mar-a-Lago,' Trump’s Florida residence," reported Jason Leopold. "The letters were released to Bloomberg and other outlets in response to Freedom of Information Act requests. Comer had released his letter to the archives in January." 
“NARA’s public enforcement of the Presidential Records Act against former President Trump while failing to disclose violations by President Biden to Committee Republicans and the American public raises concerns about inconsistent policy and procedures at the agency that creates the appearance of political bias,” wrote Comer..

Comer didn’t mention the “Clinton 🧦 ” case. A lacunae fatal to his MAGA credibility.

(NARA is not enforcing the PRA. Trump is being investigated for obstruction of justice (at least), and possibly espionage for the way he handled the documents. But Comer knows the DOJ wouldn’t give him the time of day (ongoing criminal investigation), so he’s using Trump’s play: blame NARA and scream “PRA!” As irrelevant now as what Trump calls the “Clinton socks”case.)

(It would be fun to watch the hearings where NARA goes through the tick-tick of what they did for a year trying to recover the documents, and what Trump did in opposition to their requests, including defying a grand jury subpoena, which led to the search warrant. Yeah, let’s remind the country of that again.

The Dems don’t even have to get the chessboard out. The GOP isn’t eating the pieces. They’re eating the crayons. 🖍️)
