    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.
