FBI Searches for Classified Docs at Biden’s Delaware Beach House
FBI agents on Wednesday reportedly searched President Joe Biden’s Delaware beach house for classified documents.
CBS News, agents showed up at Biden’s home at Rehoboth Beach on Wednesday to conduct the search, which was consensual and planned with Biden’s attorneys in advance.
This week, reports claimed that the search was being conducted after the following: FBI search Biden’s Washington, D.C. think tank, the Penn Biden Center, in mid-November as part of the documents probe. The White House did not disclose that the search had taken place.
“Today, with the President’s full support and cooperation, the DOJ is conducting a planned search of his home in Rehoboth, Delaware,” Bob Bauer was a Biden personal attorney and made the statement in a written statement.
“Under DOJ’s standard procedures, in the interests of operational security and integrity, it sought to do this work without advance public notice, and we agreed to cooperate,” He concluded. “The search today is a further step in a thorough and timely DOJ process we will continue to fully support and facilitate. We will have further information at the conclusion of today’s search.”
The documents saga started on Nov. 2 when Biden’s personal lawyer discovered classified documents at the Penn Biden Center, which the president formed in 2017. The Justice Department opened an investigation on the matter on November 14. Biden’s attorneys informed the agency on Dec. 20 that additional classified documents were found at the president’s house in Wilmington, Del. On Jan. 12, Attorney General Merrick Galrland appointed a special counsel to supervise the investigation.
Biden’s representatives have claimed that they searched Biden’s Rehoboth residence but did not find any classified materials.
Republicans have questioned why the White House waited more than two months to publicly disclose that the records had been found at Biden’s properties. Some Top Secret documents were among the 20-30 documents found. The Penn Biden Center documents reportedly covered Iran, Ukraine, and the United Kingdom.
