The issue of handling of classified documents boomeranged Monday on President Joe Biden just months after the FBI raided Donald Trump's Florida home as officials confirmed a small number of classified documents were found in as private office once used by the current president.
A senior government official directly familiar with the discovery told Just the News that the National Archive asked the Justice Department to open an investigation in November after a small number of classified documents -- some marked top secret -- were found in a locked closet in the Penn Biden Center in Washington where Biden worked after he left the Obama administration.
The official said, who spoke only on condition of anonymity, said Attorney General Merrick Garland has asked a U.S. attorney in Illinois -- a holdover from the Trump administration -- to oversee the investigation with NARA and the FBI.
The White House released a statement Monday evening confirming the discovery and the invesigation, saying Biden's lawyers self-disclosed the existence of the documents when the office previously used by the president was being vacated for another party.

The FBI obviously singled out President Trump, when other presidents and VPs have done the same thing. It has indeed become fashionable to turn against Trump.
It wouldn't surprise me if Biden sold secrets to China
Whatever Biden's lawyers allegedly disclosed cannot be believed. They are as much liars as he is; it is their job to lie for him. Small number- I would bet there are a lot more that have not been found yet and why the National Archives are not demanding they be turned over to them is way beyond me. Somehow I doubt there are going to be any "raids" on the Penn Biden Center.
They better do something about this or apologize to Trump!!!
