“Facts continue to emerge showing that the White House’s narrative of President Biden’s mishandling of classified documents doesn’t add up,” said Chairman Comer. “It is imperative to learn whether President Biden retained sensitive documents related to any countries involving his family’s foreign business dealings that brought in millions for the Biden family. The Oversight Committee looks forward to hearing directly from Dana Remus and other central figures to further our investigation into President Biden’s mishandling of classified documents and determine whether our national security has been compromised.”
As reported by the House Oversight Committee, they have acquired financial documents revealing that entities in China, Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, and Romania provided substantial remittances to the Biden family and associates. The House Oversight Committee issued a report on October 11th, which exposed that the White House and President Biden’s attorney had omitted critical information regarding the identification of classified materials at the Penn Biden Center. The Committee is dedicated to gaining a more comprehensive understanding of the motivations behind President Biden’s retention of specific classified documents, whether such information pertained to any foreign business dealings involving his family, and the involvement of a significant number of White House officials in procuring personal materials on his behalf.
“President Biden’s mishandling of classified documents, including the apparently unauthorized possession of classified material at a Washington, D.C. private office and in the garage of his Delaware residence, raise serious concerns about his mishandling of sensitive intelligence information and his Department of Justice’s double standard of justice. Today’s subpoena and transcribed interview requests represent another step in holding President Biden and the DOJ accountable,” said House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio).
“This is just the latest example of President Biden’s willingness to skirt the law in order to hide the truth. If the President himself was illegally holding classified material for some purpose, the American people deserve to know what that purpose is – and whether it constitutes an abuse of office. His Administration hasn’t hesitated to scrutinize political opponents’ use of classified materials, and he should be held to the same standard,” said Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith (R-Mo.).
