Why no FBI raid?
Top secret intelligence documents related to Ukraine, UK and Iran were found in Joe Biden’s private office, according to CNN.
Joe Biden stored top-secret files with the “sensitive compartmented information” (SCIF) designation at Penn Biden Center in DC.
The documents were discovered by Biden’s lawyers on November 2 – just days before the 2022 midterm elections.
“The roughly 10 documents are from President Biden’s vice-presidential office at the center, the sources said. CBS News has learned the FBI is also involved in the U.S. attorney’s inquiry.” CBS News reported.
Attorney General Merrick Garland assigned US Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois John Lausch (a Trump appointee) to review the documents.
Top White House advisors also knew Joe Biden hid classified documents at his private office.
CNN reported:
Among the items from Joe Biden’s time as vice president discovered in a private office last fall are 10 classified documents including US intelligence memos and briefing materials that covered topics including Ukraine, Iran and the United Kingdom, according to a source familiar with the matter.
The documents were dated between 2013 and 2016, according to the source.
They were found in three or four boxes that also contained unclassified papers that fall under the Presidential Records Act, the source said.
