From MADDOW: "... If you go back 50 years instead of 49, you go to that president's vice president. With Spiro Agnew, you get a 40-count federal indictment, that is brought against him. Not related to Watergate. But because of crimes that he was committing in his own office in the White House. In that case, what the Justice Department bravely and nimbly and controversially brokered with him, is that that indictment would essentially go poof in exchange for him agreeing to get out of the White House.
Attorney General Merrick Garland on Thursday appointed a special counsel to oversee investigations into Obama-era classified documents found at locations associated with President Joe Biden.
It was earlier this week when the public learned that a small number of Obama-era documents with classified markings were found at the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement in November. By all appearances, then-Vice President Joe Biden inadvertently took some materials with him upon leaving office six years ago.
After the discovery, the Democrat’s team began searching for any additional classified materials that might be in other locations he used, and as NBC News reported, some more documents were uncovered. Aides to President Joe Biden have discovered at least one additional batch of classified documents in a location separate from the Washington office he used after leaving the Obama administration, according to a person familiar with the matter.
On Thursday it came out that disgraced former President Donald Trump has been indicted again, this time by the federal government on still-unknown charges related to his handling of classified documents. Of course over on MSNBC, Rachel Maddow had to weigh in.
But Maddow wasn’t surprised by any of it. The indictment, she told Lawrence O’Donnell during Thursday’s episode of “The Last Word” was “an inevitability.”
Maddow pointed out how Agnew resigned in the hallway and upon walking into the courtroom, his indictment "effectively went away," and he was able to avoid "facing 40 felony counts."
From Trump "The corrupt Biden Administration has informed my attorneys that I have been Indicted, seemingly over the Boxes Hoax, even though Joe Biden has 1850 Boxes at the University of Delaware, additional Boxes in Chinatown, D.C., with even more Boxes at the University of Pennsylvania, and documents strewn all over his garage floor where he parks his Corvette, and which is 'secured' by only a garage door that is paper thin, and open much of the time,"

Ben Franklin once said: "If you give up a freedom, for the sake of security, you will have neither". Which is More TRUE, today, than yesterday.('06, S-40, Stock) well, mostly .
