The White House was cagey about the search of Biden’s home for classified documents as federal investigators were rifling through the house Friday.
The Department of Justice found and seized half a dozen documents marked classified and some of Biden’s notes throughout the Wilmington house during a search that lasted 13 hours, the president’s personal lawyer revealed Friday.
Neither Biden nor Jill Biden was present for the probe, but they may have already been in the state — they were set to spend a few days at their Rehoboth Beach house, located 90 miles away from where investigators were scouring.
The White House had been elusive Friday about why the president was spending a winter weekend at the beach house when the forecast called for chilly and wet conditions with temperatures in the mid-40s.
Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre refused to answer whether the trip was tied to the brewing classified material scandal — White House staff discovered several secret documents in the Wilmington garage in December and others in an old office of Biden’s in November.
