Wilmington, January 23: In a shocking development raising questions about President Joe Bidens' way of handling sensitive information, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) have seized more than a half-dozen documents, some of them classified, at President Biden’s residence in Wilmington, Del., after conducting a 13-hour search of the home.
Apart from classified documents, Biden's attorney Bob Bauer says some handwritten notes from his vice presidential years were also taken into possession.
With that development, total number of classified documents found in the residences and private offices of Biden has now increased to nearly a dozen and a half. All documents, including from his term as vice president from 2009 to 2016, have now been taken into possession of federal agents.
When President Biden said he takes classified documents seriously, the only thing he got wrong was his punctuation.

He meant to say, “I take classified documents. Seriously.”
“DOJ requested that the search not be made public in advance, in accordance with its standard procedures, and we agreed to cooperate,” Bauer said.
Last week, US Attorney General Merrick B Garland appointed a special counsel Robert Hur to investigate the discovery of the classified documents at the private offices and residence of the President. Richard Sauber, Special Counsel to the President, said that Biden directed his personal lawyers to be fully cooperative with the Justice Department as part of its ongoing investigation. That has been the case since a small number of materials were initially discovered at the Penn Biden Center, he said.
After a 12 hour search, the DOJ has discovered even more classified documents at Joe Biden’s home.

Some of these go back to when Joe was in the Senate.
Remember when he touted his nearly 50 years in politics?
Turns out all he learned was how to be a crook.
