Rep. James Comer seemed unaware of the differences between the investigations into Donald Trump and Joe Biden’s handling of classified documents, repeatedly using a TV appearance to cite information that even had the anchor seemingly confused.
. Sauber’s presence there instead of personal lawyers for Biden was not noted by Comer, a fact that would negate the political hit he sought to make.
“There’s a big difference in how President Biden and his team reacted and how President Trump and his team reacted. The FBI searched Mar-a-Lago because Trump, for more than a year, refused to turn over documents to the National Archives and the Justice Department which was trying to get them back into secure hands,” Tapper said. “Trump and his lawyers lied about it. Trump lied about not having classified documents.
“As we heard the president say before, the president has the authority to declassify documents. The question is whether or not the president actually declassified the documents. The vice president does not have the authority to declassify—” signed by President Barack Obama, which included the vice president among those with “original classification authority.” Those with that designation, according to the order, could start the declassification process.After vowing that his committee would investigate Biden’s family’s ties to China, Comer strangely claimed that the University of Pennsylvania funneled millions it received from Chinese sources through the Biden Penn Center think-tank.
