As he should

Turns out the second batch of classified documents was found in Biden's Wilmington, Connecticut, garage.  I assume Trumpland has called for Biden's house to be raided.

Special counsel Robert Hur is a Trump appointee.  Best practice.  It won't make this whole shitshow better, but it avoids making it worse.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.

UPDATE:  As expected..but dumber.

UPDATE:  Oh, wait...

The appointment comes hours after the White House counsel’s office said in a statement that Biden’s aides located documents with classified markings at two locations inside his home in Wilmington, Delaware. The documents were located in a storage area in Biden’s garage and an adjacent room, the statement reads. Biden frequently spends weekends at the home, located in a wealthy, wooded enclave on a lake.

Two locations at the Biden residence.

Speaking Thursday, Biden said the documents were in a “locked garage” and that he was cooperating fully with the Department of Justice.

“It’s not like they’re sitting out on the street,” he insisted when a reported asked why he was storing classified material next to a sports car.

Fucking lame, Joe. Trump could have said the same thing.

The president said he was going “to get a chance to speak on all of this, God willing, soon.”

The only thing he better say is he's so sorry that in fact, he won't be running for president in 2024, because this was as irresponsible as he claimed Trump was.

By bringing on a special counsel, Garland is insulating himself from the politically sensitive case, though he’ll still get the final say on whether to bring any charges. When that decision comes, no matter the outcome, it will surely become a major flashpoint in the 2024 presidential race.

No fucking kidding.

CNN previously reported that the initial batch discovered when Biden’s personal attorneys were packing files at his former private office contained 10 classified documents, including US intelligence materials and briefing memos about Ukraine, Iran and the United Kingdom.

Some of the classified documents were “top secret,” the highest level. They were found in three or four boxes that also contained unclassified papers that fall under the Presidential Records Act, CNN has reported.

Classified records are supposed to be stored in secure locations. And under the Presidential Records Act, White House records are supposed to go to the National Archives when an administration ends.

[...]

Since 2015, there have been near-constant FBI probes into presidents and major candidates: Hillary Clinton’s emails; Trump’s ties to Russia; his efforts to overturn the 2020 election and his hoarding of classified materials; and now Biden’s handling of classified files.

We are circling the drain of international standing.

UPDATE:

The appearance is of dumbshittery.  And of a belief that "the base" is dumb (which, to be fair, it is).  Both Special Counsel Hur AND FBI director Wray were Trump appointees.
