The FBI is beyond hope. The entire organization should be stood up against a wall and executed.
Special counsel to the president says that five additional
classified documents were found at Biden's Wilmington, Delaware,
home Thursday evening
A third batch of classified documents was found at President
Biden's residence in Wilmington, Delaware, the president's
attorneys announced Saturday.
Special counsel to the president Richard Sauber disclosed in a
statement that five additional pages of documents with
classified markings were found at Biden's home Thursday evening,
making a total of six classified documents retrieved from there.
Sauber explained that when Biden's personal attorneys identified
one classified document at Biden's home on Wednesday, they
"immediately" stopped searching for additional documents because
they lacked the security clearances necessary to view those
materials.
"Because I have a security clearance, I went to Wilmington
Thursday evening to facilitate providing the document the
President’s personal counsel found on Wednesday to the Justice
Department," Sauber said. "While I was transferring it to the
DOJ officials who accompanied me, five additional pages with
classification markings were discovered among the material with
it, for a total of six pages. The DOJ officials with me
immediately took possession of them."
AG GARLAND APPOINTS SPECIAL COUNSEL TO INVESTIGATE BIDEN
CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS
Additional classified documents were found in Biden's garage and
at the Penn Biden Center in Washington, D.C. The discoveries
have led to accusations from Republicans that Biden "mishandled"
classified materials in the same way that former President
Donald Trump was accused of doing, although Democrats dispute
this comparison.
Last year, the FBI executed a search and seizure at Trump's
residence in Mar-a-Lago and retrieved approximately 300
documents with classified markings – some "top secret" – which
the former president had not turned over to the National
Archives, as required by law. At the time, Biden had said Trump
had been "irresponsible." Trump's handling of classified
documents is being investigated by Special Counsel Jack Smith,
who was appointed by Attorney General Merrick Garland after the
former president announced his candidacy for the White House in
2024.
JIM JORDAN LAUNCHES FIRST INVESTIGATION AS JUDICIARY CHAIR INTO
BIDEN CLASSIFIED DOCS SCANDAL
On Monday, the Biden White House revealed for the first time
that on Nov. 2, 2022, the president's personal lawyers were
packing files from his old office at the Penn Biden Center for
Diplomacy and Global engagement, a think tank founded in 2018 by
the University of Pennsylvania, when they discovered documents
with classified markings in a "locked closet" dated from the
time Biden served as vice-president under President Obama. The
classified materials were immediately turned over to the
National Archives, the White House said.
On Nov. 4, the National Archives inspector general informed the
Department of Justice of the discovery and Garland appointed
U.S. Attorney John Lausch to begin an initial investigation.

SCANDAL OVER HANDLING OF CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS
Then in December, Biden's personal attorney Robert Bauer
informed Lausch that a second set of documents had been found in
the garage of Biden's private home in Wilmington, Del. Those
documents were also turned over to DOJ.
On Wednesday, Biden's attorneys found one more classified
document at his Wilmington residence, and Sauber discovered the
five latest documents on Thursday. That same day, Garland tapped
Robert K. Hur, a former U.S. attorney, to serve as special
counsel to investigate Biden's handling of classified materials.
"I am confident that Mr. Hur will carry out his responsibility
in an even-handed and urgent manner and in accordance with the
highest traditions of this department," Garland stated.
Meanwhile, the House Judiciary Committee will conduct its own
investigation under the leadership of Chairman Rep. Jim Jordan,
R-Ohio.
MORE CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS FOUND IN BIDEN'S DELAWARE GARAGE,
WHITE HOUSE REVEALS
"We are conducting oversight of the Justice Department’s actions
with respect to former Vice President Biden’s mishandling of
classified documents, including the apparently unauthorized
possession of classified material at a Washington, D.C., private
office and in the garage of his Wilmington, Delaware,
residence," Jordan and Rep. Mike Johnson, R-La., wrote in a
letter sent Friday to Garland.
"On January 12, 2023, you appointed Robert Hur as Special
Counsel to investigate these matters," they wrote. "The
circumstances of this appointment raise fundamental oversight
questions that the Committee routinely examines. We expect your
complete cooperation with our inquiry."
Sauber emphasized that Biden's lawyers have "acted immediately
and voluntarily" to turn over all classified materials to the
Justice Department.
"We have now publicly released specific details about the
documents identified, how they were identified, and where they
were found. The appointment of the Special Counsel in this
matter this week means we will now refer specific questions to
the Special Counsel’s office moving forward," Sauber said.
"As I said Thursday, the White House will cooperate with the
newly-appointed Special Counsel," he added.
