WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden faces a deepening political crisis after the announcement Saturday that even more classified documents were discovered at his Wilmington, Delaware, home.
The incident has Republicans drawing comparisons with the Department of Justice investigation of President Donald Trump’s possession of hundreds of pages of classified material at his Palm Beach, Florida, home after he left office.
The GOP has complained of a double standard for the two presidents. Biden’s lawyers say that in contrast with Trump, they immediately returned all documents they found to the government and have cooperated with a review of the discoveries.
