We told you earlier that some of the geniuses on the TV show “The View” floated the possibility that classified documents that were being kept in Biden’s garage (and a couple other places so far) were put there by Republicans. Joy Behar was the leader of this particular clown parade:
Joy Behar on Biden's classified documents: "We all know that Trump is a liar and a thief. We know that. So it’s not that big a jump to say that he obstructed and he lied. We don’t think Biden is a liar and a thief, so we give him the benefit of the doubt." pic.twitter.com/w7y5Dou1Ml

“The View” brain trust has now been joined by a Democrat member of Congress. Rep. Hank “Guam might capsize” Johnson is among those who wonder if the classified material was planted on Biden:
From colleague Hillary Vaughn. Dem GA Rep Johnson on Biden classified documents: I'm suspicious of the timing of it..things can be planted on people, places and things can be planted or things things can be planted in places and then discovered conveniently.

Johnson has put out a statement:
Here is my statement on the President Biden document case. https://t.co/QLACCysTLD pic.twitter.com/epArVGl6Op
— Rep. Hank Johnson (@RepHankJohnson) January 12, 2023
The statement doesn’t directly say Johnson thinks Republicans might have planted the documents, but that door has been left open:
“It is refreshing to see the Department of Justice restored from its politicization during the Trump years, and I applaud Attorney General Garland for acting swiftly in appointing a special counsel to investigate the Biden document discoveries. Based on what we know, there is a big difference between the Trump and Biden document cases. At first, Trump lied about their very existence, while his lawyers asserted that there were no more documents. When Trump finally admitted that he knowingly took and possessed the classified documents, he refused numerous requests to return them. He even failed to comply with a subpoena. Classified documents were actually seized from Trump’s own desk. Moreover, there is no documentation supporting any claim that any of the Trump documents were declassified. The Trump document case is an open and shut case and should proceed without delay to a final and just resolution. There remains much we don’t know about the Biden document discoveries, and it’s too early to reach any conclusions. I am confident, however, that the process has begun to ensure that we get to the truth, and that justice will be done.”
Keep on spinning, congressman! The Biden White House will appreciate the help.

No stretch is too big for some of these Democrats.
So, Hank Johnson thinks there's a chance that GOP operatives broke into Biden's Penn office, opened a locked closet, and planted decade-old top secret documents. There's a better chance of Guam tipping over. https://t.co/bpLJeIDxH0

“The View” hosts are good company for Rep. Johnson…
The guy who thought putting too many soldiers on Guam would make it tip over has thoughts. https://t.co/qqVL3tMGjK

This is the same guy that said this about Guam:
“My fear is that the whole island will become so overly populated that it will tip over and capsize.”

Clearly we’re not sending our best to serve in Congress.
