  Continue to refuse to search other Trump properties.
context: I mean...yeah, of course?
  On the one hand, there appears to be a non-trivial problem with the way the federal government handles (or apparently doesn't) handle sensitive documents. On the other, I'd be more surprised if the DOJ wasn't planning to search every property of everyone who's had significant access in the last decade or more. >
  
  I'm honestly surprised they didn't do it after Trump, and now because they didn't do it post Trump, you're going to have to right accusing the DOJ of doing this to spread the blame around. >
  
  I mean, Trump's case was different and wouldn't have led them to suspect others of doing the same.  He was purposely mishandling documents.  We didn't start to see a pattern of people accidentally mishandling documents until later.
  Trump took documents, deliberately, lied about having them, declined to give them back repeatedly, had attorneys lie about him not having any more and then had to be hit with a warrant search that found tons of documents at his home, and more have been found since.  
  Biden had his own staff find stuff that had been misfiled and notified the national archives.  
  Pence's staff then searched and found the same thing, did the same thing, establishing that there may be a pattern of that mixing of documents among officials. 
  Mishandling vs deliberate misconduct. >
  
  I get that but I would have thought they would have realized how there's basically no oversight over this and thus add oversight and then do a once over sweep for documents. >
  
  There is a lot of oversight over this, though. That's how the government knew almost immediately that Trump had taken a ton of documents.  They had been on him to give them back for over a year before the FBI finally had to go in with a warrant.  
  The stuff that has been turning up with Biden and pence is probably lower end stuff that was supposed to be destroyed and was misfiled instead.  Anything that's generally considered more important is much more closely monitored. >
  
  That's good to know then. I didn't follow the Trump stuff that much and just figured it was a good conscience staffer who tipped the DOJ off about it. >
  
  In trumps case it was known from the start he had them because they were logged and had a paper trail.  They were known missing documents.  Biden and Pence had documents that weren’t tracked, weren’t noticed to be missing, and that were voluntarily disclosed after a search. >
  
  At this point I'm in favor of searching every living President's, Vice President's, and Cabinet members' homes and offices. This is starting to look like a systemic problem, after all. >
  
  Jimmy Carter is chilling right now since he is the only living president who is not covered by the PRA. >
  
  Hide yo wife, hide yo kids, and hide yo classified documents cause they raiding everybody out here.
