White House offers cool response to House Republicans’ classified documents probe

The White House on Monday tepidly offered to “accommodate” House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer’s request for information related to classified materials found at President Biden’s former office and Delaware home.

In a letter to Mr. Comer, Kentucky Republican, White House counsel Stuart Delery wrote that the administration does not have possession of the documents that the Justice Department seized as part of its investigation into Mr. Biden’s potentially illegal handling of classified materials.

Mr. Delery also promised cooperation with Mr. Comer’s information requests, but warned that would have to be balanced with the Justice Department probe.
