I have been told that John Lausch, the US Atty for America, was responsible for overseeing the FBI search of President Biden&#8217;s residence. DOJ spox tells me,\u201dWe expect Rob Hur to be on board shortly.\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/80VjSYsHyM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/t.co\/80VjSYsHyM<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Paula Reid (@PaulaReidCNN) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PaulaReidCNN\/status\/1616972937898213377?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">January 22, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Merrick Garland claims that Hur&#8217;s appointment was not taken lightly and was in place by the time of the official announcement on January 12, 2023. Yet, here we are, with more documents being found, including some from Biden\u2019s time in the US Senate, and the special counsel is completely missing in action.<\/p>\n<p>What sense does this make? What was the point of bringing Hur on board if he wasn\u2019t ready to take charge of what was obviously a very fluid, ongoing situation? Right now, with documents from the president\u2019s senatorial days being found, there\u2019s serious evidence of criminal intent on the table. This is when the special counsel is required most. At least theoretically, this is due to the apparent separation from the wider, political-led DOJ.<\/p>\n<p>It should not take over ten days for Hur to at least take operational control, even if he\u2019s dictating and overseeing what\u2019s happening until he finishes assembling his team. That he hasn\u2019t done so raises some serious red flags. How serious is this special counsel? Did Hur intend to conduct a full investigation? Or was he simply brought in to cover the DOJ&#8217;s efforts to speed up the process?<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve said since the beginning that I believe the special counsel exists simply as a rubber stamp for Biden\u2019s exoneration. It gives Garland an appearance of being absent while the outcome is already decided. Now, hearing that Hur is sitting on the sidelines as the case escalates, I\u2019m more convinced of that than ever.<\/p>\n<p>The DOJ isn\u2019t serious about handling Biden\u2019s criminality with impartiality and seriousness. They want it to end. The president&#8217;s inability to release classified information about his senatorial career has put a wrench in the plan.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>\nRedState Video Trending\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RedState reported, Joe Biden\u2019s latest scandal took another major turn on Saturday after a DOJ-led search of his Delaware home revealed even more illegally possessed classified documents.
