House Oversight Committee launches probe of classified docs found in Biden’s think-tank office

The House Oversight Committee on Tuesday announced it has opened an investigation into the classified documents found at a private office that once belonged to President Biden.

Chairman James Comer, Kentucky Republican, sent a letter to White House counsel Steve Delery asking him to turn over several documents to the committee by Jan. 24.

“The committee is concerned that President Biden has compromised sources and methods with his own mishandling of classified documents,” Mr. Comer wrote.

Mr. Comer’s letter drew several comparisons between the documents found in Mr. Biden’s office and the classified documents seized by the FBI from former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence in August.
