She confirmed last week that the younger Biden sat in on some of his father’s meetings, saying he was “in the room” as President Joe Biden prepared to deliver a prime-time address responding to the Supreme Court‘s ruling on presidential immunity.
That response prompted House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Turner (R-OH) to write a letter to White House chief of staff Jeff Zients seeking a “full accounting of any classified information discussed or disclosed in these meetings.”
While it’s unclear if Turner received a reply to his letter, Jean-Pierre appeared to address the matter herself.
“Can you say if Hunter Biden has access to classified information?” a reporter asked and received a flat “no” in reply.
