The Justice Department has informed the Senate Intelligence Committee that it is actively working to brief lawmakers on the potential risks to national security posed by the discovery of classified documents in the possession of both President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump. The Department is working with the Office of the Director of National Intelligence to provide information without harming the ongoing Special Counsel investigations, and has a policy of maintaining the confidentiality of such information. The Biden administration has taken steps to ensure that all documents are properly secured and that personnel have the appropriate security clearances, but the potential risks to national security remain unclear.
