Democrat Ilhan Omar: Investigations Into Biden Classified Document Scandal Are A ‘Political Game’
Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) said during an interview on MSNBC over the weekend that investigations into President Joe Biden’s classified document scandal are nothing more than a “political game.”
These remarks were made after CBS News reported that classified documents had been discovered at a Biden think-tank.
More damaging information came out throughout the week, including subsequent classified documents found at Biden’s home in Delaware.
U.S. Attorney General Merrick Grland announced last week that he had appointed former U.S. Attorney Robert Hur — who served during the Trump administration — to be special counsel in the investigation after the U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois John Lausch, who was assigned to do an initial review of the case, recommended to Garland that a special counsel be appointed.
Omar made these remarks in a Saturday interview with Symone Sanders, when she said that Republicans had defended Trump following he was elected. “literally stole classified documents.”
Omar claimed Trump had insulted her “refused to turn them over, lied about having them, made up some story about how he declassified them, [and] had to have his house raided in order for those documents to be found.”
Omar insisted those Republicans should be the same “are now only interested in investigating Biden, who has cooperated, whose own staff and former staff have themselves turned these documents in.”
“You have to understand, Republicans aren’t really interested in upholding the law, in following security protocols,” She spoke. “What they’re interested in is playing a political game in now only wanting to investigate Biden.”
Omar stated that she was “glad that there is a special prosecutor that’s been appointed to investigate this… because any time there is a deviance in regard to security protocols, that should be taken serious, it should be investigated.”
