How many more will they find?
More classified documents found at Biden’s home by lawyers
Lawyers for President Joe Biden found more classified documents at his home in Wilmington, Delaware, than previously known, the White House acknowledged Saturday.
White House lawyer Richard Sauber said in a statement that a total of six pages of classified documents were found during a search of Biden’s private library. The White House had said previously that only a single page was found there.
The latest disclosure is in addition to the discovery of documents found in December in Biden’s garage and in November at his former offices at the Penn Biden Center in Washington, from his time as vice president. The apparent mishandling of classified documents and official records from the Obama administration is under investigation by a former U.S. attorney, Robert Hur, who was appointed as a special counsel on Thursday by Attorney General Merrick Garland.
Sauber said in a statement Saturday that Biden’s personal lawyers, who did not have security clearances, stopped their search after finding the first page on Wednesday evening. Sauber found the remaining material Thursday, as he was facilitating their retrieval by the Department of Justice. (snip)
Sauber’s statement did not explain why the White House waited two days to provide an updated accounting of the number of classified records. The White House is already facing scrutiny for waiting more than two months to acknowledge the discovery of the initial group of documents at the Biden office.
Um, why are Biden’s lawyers searching for documents when they do not have security clearances? Why are there not people with the proper clearances searching? The DOJ had zero problem with a highly visible dawn raid of Donald Trump’s property, tearing stuff up, searching through his wife’s clothes, right? That Biden didn’t know he had them should be concerning, as, how secure could they be?
Also, why is Biden at home in Wilmington this weekend, when his home is pretty much a national security crime scene?
