Biden broke his silence and said that he was "surprised" by the discovery. However, as expected, he cited counsel in saying no more and asking no questions. However, this is one explanation (to quote the President) on "how this could possibly happen?"...nypost.com/2023/01/10/bid…
...Biden not only would accept a million dollars to discuss diplomacy at Penn, but he wrote a book that detailed his work in countries like Ukraine (one of the reported subjects of these highly classified documents). thehill.com/opinion/white-…
...What the President did not explain is why he was "surprised." Those documents were presumably not placed in his office for the benefit for third parties. He did not say whether he did review or request such classified material.
...Biden said "I don't know what's in the documents. My lawyers have not suggested I ask what documents they were." It was a bit jumbled. Presumably, he is saying that his lawyers suggested that he not ask what the documents were."...
...The question is why. If the President was committed to addressing any national security risk, he would want to know and then want to offer any recollection on how or when they might have been used.
