Democrats expressed concern that multiple discoveries of classified documents at President Biden’s private home and a former office will overshadow his agenda and open the door to more Republican-led investigations in the House.
, for example, evidence identified as a single “item” ranged from one box with around 100 government documents, 70 empty sensitive folders, another 100 news clippings, to another “item” described as consisting of two documents.
Democrats expressed concern that the documents scandal could widen, particularly as the new Republican-led House of Representatives comes back into session this week. “We have to worry,” said Mr. Durbin. “This new group that has taken over control of the House of Representatives has promised us endless investigations, confrontations, impeachments and chaos.”
Mr. Turner, who is expected to become the chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, said he wants to understand Mr. Biden’s motive in holding on to the materials and expressed concern that Mr. Biden wanted to show the paper to others.
