President Joe Biden is facing a growing political crisis after classified documents were found in his former offices. This revelation has fueled Republican claims that Biden is being treated unfairly as he is investigated by a special counsel over classified information found at Mar-a-Lago.

The documents were found at a second location, and while the retention of hundreds of documents and attempts to thwart their transfer to the National Archives as required by law appears more serious at this stage, Biden’s deepening troubles are offering a huge opening to the new pro-Trump House.

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) refused to rebuke first-year Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.) for lying about his background to win the election. McCarthy said “the voters made the decision and (Santos) has a right to serve.”

Biden’s troubles are providing a major political opportunity for Donald Trump, who is facing his own investigation over hoarding of secret material. The documents found in Biden’s former offices are further complicating the situation, and it remains to be seen how this will affect the outcome of the investigation.

Key takeaways:

  • Classified documents were found in President Joe Biden’s former offices, fueling Republican claims of unfair treatment.
  • House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) refused to rebuke first-year Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.) for lying about his background to win the election.
  • Biden’s troubles are providing a major political opportunity for Donald Trump, who is facing his own investigation over hoarding of secret material.
