Apparently it seems that Vice President Mike Pence wanted a little bit of it.
Couldn't just be Biden and
Trump with those classified documents located in places they shouldn't be now?
VP Pence had to also have some classified documents in his personal belongings.
Yes per CNN a lawyer for former VP Mike Pence.
Discovered about a dozen documents marked as classified at
Pence's Indiana home last week.
And he has turned those classified records over to the FBI.
The FBI and the Justice Department national Security Division have
launched a review of the documents.
And how they ended up in Pence's house in indiana.
More details on the documents as far as I'm concerned,
they were not in a secure location and I'm sure not by anybody's corvette.
But as soon as the Ex VP's attorney found them, they secured the papers in a safe.
The classified material was stored in boxes that first
went to Pence's temporary home in Virginia before they were moved to Indiana.
According to the sources.
The boxes were not in a secure area.
But they were taped up and were not believed to have been open since they were
packed according to Pence's attorney.
Once the classified documents were discovered,
the sources say they were placed inside a safe location in the house.
Now while this does come after Pence asked his lawyer to conduct a search of his
home out of an abundance of caution.
While Pence has repeatedly said that he didn't have any classified documents
in his possession?
Check him out here on ABC last November.
>> Did you take any classified documents with you from the White House?
>> I did not.
>> Do you see any reason for
anyone to take classified documents with them leaving the White House?
>> Well there'd be no reason to have classified documents
particularly if they were in an unprotected area.
>> Yeah and I would say especially VP Pence because he wouldn't have that
presidential power to declassify them on demand.
But anyways Pence's representative to the archives.
Mr. Greg Jacob explain this in a statement.
A small number of documents bearing classified markings
were inadvertently boxed.
And transported to the personal home of the former Vice President
at the end of the last administration.
Vice President Pence was unaware of the existence of sensitive or
classified documents at his personal residence.
Vice President Pence understands the high importance of protecting sensitive and
classified information.
And stands ready and willing to cooperate fully with the National Archives and
any appropriate inquiry.
I just don't know if this was Pence's effort to be relevant in the moment.
But basically his Washington DC.
Advocacy group office was also searched and
no classified records of any kind were found there which is good.
But discovery of those classified documents from Trump and Biden.
And now Pence's home really makes us wonder if everybody has classified
documents and maybe I don't know.
Maybe we're just missing out Jake.
>> Yeah and now I feel like I missed the party.
I mean, where's my classified documents.
So, all right look a couple of things.
Again, that might be controversial.
One about the Pence ones, I don't care.
I'm open to having my mind changed depending on the facts.
They all shouldn't take documents home.
And and I don't know if it's just like corporate
propaganda to protect corporate politicians like Mike Pence.
That they explained the story of how somebody else packed it up for him and
taped it and he's never seen.
And who knows if that's true or untrue?
But it appears to be a small number of classified documents.
And they were taped up apparently.
And and it looks like out of all of the different classified documents story.
This one appears to be the clearest one that was a quote, unquote mistake, right.
Now Mike Pence is a Republican.
He's fundamentalist religious figure.
Can't stand him, loathe him, but were the fairest show in America.
And so and now among the three Trump, Biden and and
Pence with classified documents.
Trump is definitely the worst.
Biden is the second worst and Pence is the third worst.
Go ahead find somewhere on tv where they say that ,okay.
No, the MSNBC will say Trump and Pence are monsters and Biden's perfectly innocent.
Fox will say the opposite etc.
No, it looks like for the moment being until they find seven other places where
he has documents just like they did with Biden.
But for now Pence has the least amount of classified documents,
it looks most like a mistake.
Look guys, if they take it home as a mistake, that's already a problem.
There should be some sort of consequence for that.
If they take him home in a serial way, like Biden and
Trump did that's a bigger problem.
Why do you keep taking home these classified documents?
That's really weird.
It requires an explanation so far.
Both Biden and Trump have not given a good one.
And then the third layer why is Trump worse?
Well, I mean he had way more documents.
Much more importantly though, is what we're in the documents.
We know that there were apparently some nuclear secrets in the documents.
And he also tried to make sure that nobody knew that he had the documents.
He hit him, he lied about he lied to the FBI.
He had his lawyer lie etc.
Which goes to intent.
It looks like Pence doesn't have much intent from the moment being on
the fact that we know Trump clearly has bad intent.
That's why he's hiding it from the FBI.
That's why he's hiding it from the National Archives.
So if Pence any of them the same, it doesn't matter who it is.
I know we're so partisan, it's so nobody can see straight anymore.
But I like to think that we at TYT can.
So if one of them it doesn't matter who took them home for
an illicit purpose or just one of many examples is selling them.
They should go to prison for the rest of their lives and
I don't give a goddamn that their president or vice president, okay.
And that's just as true Biden as it is of the other two.
But right now if I had to take a guess it's not complicated.
It's not because I don't like Trump it's because he
took home the most top secret documents we have for no goddamn reason.
He clearly did it on purpose.
He clearly moved it in a way to hide them.
He clearly lied to the authorities so he wouldn't get caught.
Why did he wanna have those classified documents so bad?
Can you see the difference between the Trump, Biden and Pence.
Please tell me you, can I ask the audience but Adrian I know you can.
>> Without a doubt.
Just as you've noted Trump was doing everything in his power to conceal
his documents and every time DOGA.
Kept coming by asking about them he was hiding them.
It's like there's no question here.
As far as Biden goes I'm sure it was just being a little bit on the negligence side.
But as it concerns Pence, I have no doubt that this man is so straight arrow.
I know that what he can't even p with a lit up without mother's permission.
I do not doubt that that man did not truly think he had any classified documents and
would not have kept them if he had had them.
He is such a straight arrow player here.
And even just asking your lawyer to go ahead and check all of your properties.
Really speaks to his willingness to do his due diligence and
to come forward with them.
But again, I don't know if he's just trying to join the party.
The fact that it seems that everybody got classified documents and
again I feel like I'm missing out.
But that's just me.
>> Yeah [LAUGH] So remember last fun thing here.
This guy named Sandy Berger who used to work for the Clinton administration.
He once went to go look at classified documents.
And and he was in a secure location and
then he like stuffed him into his pants so that democratic guy, right.
And that shows you illicit purpose, right.
He's obviously trying to take him out for some reason.
He's not supposed to take them out.
He got caught and it was hilarious and
the Republicans were like this is the worst crime in American history.
How could you remove cause of my [INAUDIBLE].
Trump's got him stuffed in his ears and pants his shirt,
it's coming out of his zipper etc.
And they're the new nuclear secrets and
he was like I'm not gonna tell you what, there's no way I want it.
I'm gonna do something with these.
I don't want you to find out.
They're probably like, I don't see it [LAUGH] It's comical,
the degree to which they've lost their mind is comical.
Today, I said that Pence, I sat on social media,
Pence's transgression doesn't appear to be anywhere near Trump's.
Bunch of right wingers, right.
And they're like, that's just because you're so biased, you like Pence,
[LAUGH] I hate Pence, what are you talking about?
I think that the way that they phrase it,
I think that they genuinely think Pence is a Democrat.
Because remember they wanted to murder him, right.
There was a hang Mike Pence, hang on January six, so
they might think that he's a Democrat.
Because they detached from reality, who knows what they think.
Maybe they think he's a martian, [LAUGH] I don't know, but for
the rest of you the same world, yes.
Pence is a straight arrow.
It's very unlikely he was gonna do something illicit with it.
Yes, he's a Republican and it's okay to be honest about Republicans say
that was probably not too guilty, wow, honesty.
I know in media it seems near impossible.
