WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden’s aides have found another set of classified documents at a location separate from the Washington office he used after serving as vice president, NBC News and The New York Times reported Wednesday.
The documents were discovered after an initial set of classified materials was found by Biden lawyers in a locked closet at the University of Pennsylvania’s Biden Center office. The White House said those documents were returned within hours to the National Archives, but the contents and fate of the second set of documents weren’t clear.
It was also unclear when the second batch was discovered, or if it represents the totality of classified materials that appear to have been improperly removed as Biden concluded his tenure as vice president. The White House didn’t respond to a request for comment. The Justice Department declined to comment.
