Keith Olbermann is the first person I've heard to ask "who leaked the Biden doc story"

Olbermann identifies a probable source and it is very plausible.

I wonder why no other cable host or journalist is asking?

[IA8IT]

1. Now I know you don't have a listening device at my house.

[Ninga]

2. Drat! Overlooked. Somebody missed their assignment.

[Ninga]

3. It is worth the time to listen. He has connected some dots that are very logical.

[Fullduplexxx]

4. Especially after all the claims here on d.u. that garland's doj doesn't leak

[Ninga]

6. *bingo* what a mess we are living with. I suspect there won't be a resolution in my lifetime.

I really defended Garland and begged for patience. But damn Olbermann nails it.

[calimary]

5. Maybe because they're afraid of alienating a source?

Gotta stay nice ‘n’ cozy with the fat cats.

[Ninga]

8. Listening to Olbermann, the possible source he identified is in the DOJ and leaving in 2 weeks.

[Sneederbunk]

7. The media does not want to look a gift horse in the mouth.

[Ninga]

9. This possible source is not likely to leak again. He did his damage like a good puppy.

10. Didn't listen to the podcast, but I have asked the same question. Who's leaking - again and again

[Ninga]

12. Listen to hear how Keith uncovered the possible and likely leaker.

[calimary]

19. I miss him on the air.

I’ve heard he’s not easy to work with. But MAN-oh-MAN - he may be worth the grief. I’m qualifying that, though. I’ve worked with people who’ve “specialized” in aggressive power against targeted staffers they didn’t like. One mad dog I tried desperately hard to work with threatened to “knock me through the floor.” He’d come to L.A. from San Francisco, and all I wished for was for him to turn around and go back.

[Ninga]

20. I hear you. Keith suffers no fools. He has a photographic memory, uses every word in the

dictionary and has an IQ to support his essays. I imagine that his impatience was for those in high positions who should know better. I am hooked on his podcast. Love his Thurber on Friday stories.

[calimary]

21. It hasn't been my habit to check out any podcasts.

If it seems too complicated to figure out, I get turned off because I don’t have an ease with technology. Never have. I was grateful when I reached the point in my career when I’d have an engineer to depend on, and didn’t have to worry about any of the bajillion buttons on the damn board except the mic button. I’ve always been intimidated by the technical stuff.

22. We deafies can't listen, so could someone tell us who?

[Hortensis]

11. What matters is that Biden et al immediately notified the appropriate authorities

when the documents first turned up and turned them over, all to the letter of the law. Then conducted their own search for more and found the ones near his home, then etc to the letter of the law.

They didn't rush to notify the press right before the critical midterm elections, but weren't required to do it then either ethically or legally. There was no attempt to bury this permanently as a secret.

That's what matters.

As for who first "leaked" what would become public as this progressed, of interest if it was malicious but still comparatively irrelevant?

HERE's something I kinda wonder about: That the first set of documents was found November 2, six days before the midterms. Also, how'd they and the others get where they were? There's been no speculation that they were planted, but until that's investigated and the handling path established I'll at least wonder anyway.

[Ninga]

13. Well, except the possible leaker is in the DOJ? Didn't Garland promise to run a tight ship?

[Hortensis]

16. Again, comparatively irrelevant unless it was done for malicious purpose?

Of course, we know the DoJ does arrange occasional "leak-style" releases of information through third parties, usually ex- government functionaries, for its own purposes. So that's a possibility also.

[doc03]

14. I have been thinking about that too. I heard there

were secret documents pertaining to Ukraine and Iran.
Never heard what papers Trump had. As far as them not preporting it prior to the election wasn't that DOJ president except for Hillary.

[Me.]

15. Okay Then...

Who?

[kelly1mm]

17. My question is why did it have to be leaked to make it to the public? Why didn't the administration

immediately disclose the existence of the found documents and what they were doing to get them back to the archives and cooperate with any DOJ investigation? They knew about them since November 2. Why did it take over 2 months for this information to be disclosed (and only by a leak). Didn't President Biden promise to be transparent and admit mistakes when they happen?

If not for the leak would this EVER have become public? What would have happened if the DOJ charged President Trump for classified document related crimes and then this came out AFTER that?

18. Garland's Incompetence has given trump the "it's just a witchhunt" nonsense argument.
