Biden’s documents misstep helps Trump politically — and legally too

LA Times  

“We do not have different rules for Democrats or Republicans,” Atty. “We apply the facts and the law in each case in a neutral, nonpartisan manner.” When classified documents turned up in President Biden’s former office, his Delaware home and the garage housing his Corvette, the political impact was predictable. The newly minted Republican chairmen of two House committees announced investigations of Biden — but not of Trump or former Vice President Mike Pence, who confessed that he too had found classified documents at home. “It will inevitably affect a jury; they’ll wonder why the government isn’t prosecuting Joe Biden,” said Paul Rosenzweig, another former Justice Department official. “We apply the facts and the law in each case in a neutral, nonpartisan manner.” That’s why he appointed a second special counsel, Robert K. Hur, to investigate the Biden documents.
