particularly optimal for the trump camp as Jack Smith was ratcheting up his investigation of the hundreds of stolen classified docs found at MAL, and the Biden revelation effectively shifted intense scrutiny and condemnation onto Joe Biden while at the same time tamping down enthusiasm for criminal and espionage charges against trump.

How curious.

Then the Pence docs were found and I thought, WTF, as that reveal blew all previous speculations as to motives out of the water and left everyone scratching their heads and thinking maybe a few classified docs ending up accidentally with former presidents and VPs wasn't that unusual.

But I do think the few Biden and Pence docs found were inadvertent packing/moving mistakes, but that can not be said about the thousands of pages and humdreds of classified docs found in a barely secured storage area of trump's MAL country club.

Anyway, whoever was behind the Pence docs being found, did Biden a favor, leading to another thought — was this a spy v spy, tit-for-tat operation?
