The Swamp hits Biden with the ol' classified documents routine

It couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

Another day, another set of classified documents found in President Joe Biden’s possession. Just in case anyone missed the first two times that this is an inside job by the Democratic Party to ensure somebody besides Biden heads the party’s presidential ticket in 2024, a third cache of documents was revealed on Saturday.

They’re so committed to making this an ongoing news story they’re even working weekends. It’s a old but effective trick to make one event that happened years in the past seem like multiple events recurring in the present. “Breaking! Five more classified documents discovered! Gasp! Red alert!”

The most important thing to remember about all of these classified documents scandals is what they are not. And that is they are not any real concern for the public. The media and interested political operatives would have you believe these documents contain information so sensitive that their falling into the wrong hands could result in us all speaking Russian or Chinese. They don’t.

The truth is there are very few secrets national governments try to keep that allies and adversaries alike haven’t stolen. The government likes to portray itself as secretly protecting the public from all sorts of unseen danger, both state-sponsored and otherwise. “If you only knew what goes on behind the scenes, you’d be terrified,” they’d like you to think. Many of the bureaucratic rank and file believe this themselves.

In reality, most of what even the national security state does is cooked up nonsense to justify legions of government drones and billions per year in wasted spending. The histrionics over the discovery of compromised classified material is usually just political posturing. If it weren’t, then we’d have seen some significant consequences by now from the classified documents stored on Hillary Clinton’s infamous private server, which even podunk governments in Eastern Europe and Africa probably have their hands on by now. We haven’t and we won’t.

When the alarm over mishandling of classified documents is genuine, it isn’t for fear of any danger to the public. Everyone should realize that’s the last thing these people are concerned about. What they are concerned about is the real reason most of these documents get classified in the first place: the embarrassing to themselves or potentially incriminating information the documents may contain.

The last thing the Deep State wants is for the public to know just how much no good it is up to both in this country and in others. Just think about how hard they tried to keep Elon Musk from purchasing Twitter and releasing the #TwitterFiles. All those did was confirm what most of the public already knew – that social media is riddled with spooks hard at work molding public opinion in the Establishment’s favor.
