WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department is reviewing a batch of potentially classified documents found in the Washington office space of President Joe Biden’s former institute, the White House said Monday.

Special counsel to the president Richard Sauber said “a small number of documents with classified markings” were discovered as Biden’s personal attorneys were clearing out the offices of the Penn Biden Center, where the president kept an office after he left the vice presidency in 2017 until shortly before he launched his 2020 presidential campaign in 2019. The documents were found on Nov. 2, 2022.
Sauber said the attorneys immediately alerted the White House Counsel’s office, who notified the National Archives and Records Administration — which took custody of the documents the next day.
“Since that discovery, the President’s personal attorneys have cooperated with the Archives and the Department of Justice in a process to ensure that any Obama-Biden Administration records are appropriately in the possession of the Archives,” Sauber said.
A person who is familiar with the matter but not authorized to discuss it publicly said Attorney General Merrick Garland asked U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois John Lausch to review the matter after the Archives referred the issue to the department. John Lausch was appointed to his post by former President Donald Trump.
What goes around comes around
So it is not only Trump who moves documents !
But Biden is a DemocRat so it’s ok
When will garland be ordering the fbi raid on bidens Delaware home?
Garland is a corrupt partisan hack, ignoring hundreds of attacks on prolife centers.
Certainly ought to be looked into.
Silence from hakeem fjcc jeffries DOJ is the most corrupt
It’s 2023 and you just can’t make this stuff up anymore
Why isn’t the woke press yelling about treason and criminality here. But not a word
I guess the the power that be . Don’t want Biden to run for a second term.
They are sacrificing him before he gets a chance to start..
Typical of the privileged WHITE male, Merrick Garland, to go after the friendliest President towards blacks in this racist Nations history, the honorable Joe Biden.
But obviously they didn’t RAID house like they did by Trump
Someone in Joe’s circle ratted him out or this would’ve been a Hillary coverup.
C’mon man. You think Joe had any clue what he was taking?
It isn’t ok. But it is noteworthy that Biden’s lawyers immediately notified the government rather than denying it or hiding it.
