Documents marked classified were discovered in President Joe Biden’s former office at a think tank in Washington, according to CNN and CBS News. The revelation has sparked criticism from House Republicans and promises of investigations from the new House majority.
The documents were found by Biden’s personal lawyers in his vice-presidential office at the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement in Washington. It is unclear what is precisely contained in the documents, as Biden and his White House legal team have not reviewed them. Biden was unaware of the documents until his personal lawyers informed the White House counsel’s office.
The documents are believed to be US intelligence memos and briefing materials from Biden’s time as vice president. House Republicans have criticized the Justice Department for not investigating the matter, and the new House majority has promised to investigate.
The White House has not commented on the matter. It is unclear what action, if any, will be taken in response to the discovery of the classified documents. It is also unclear if the documents will be released to the public.
