House Oversight Committee investigating classified documents found at Biden's office

The new chair of the House Oversight Committee on Tuesday notified the White House that his panel is investigating President Joe Biden's handling of classified records from Biden's time as vice president -- some of which were found in November at an office Biden had used in Washington, D.C.

In a letter to White House counsel Stuart Delery, obtained by ABC News, Republican Rep. James Comer of Kentucky asked the White House to provide all documents that were retrieved from Biden's personal office.

The Oversight Committee is also seeking a list of those who had access to Biden's office; all documents related to the handling of classified documents, including by Biden's lawyers, and the status of their security clearance; and all documents between the White House, the Department of Justice and the National Archives and Record Administration (NARA), Comer wrote.

He asked for those documents by Jan. 23.

Comer is a bloated fool.

I'm betting someone waited till the Repugs got their shit together in the House before deciding to report/leak this story.

3. Of course they are. This could rival Benghazi in the number of hearings.

They're licking their chops that this "just accidentally" fell into their laps.

6. Shouldn't they be asking the Archives for those documents?

If they would actually read the articles or listen to the broadcast news, they would know that the White House does not have the documents any more.
