The December discovery of classified documents inside Pres. Biden's Wilmington, Delaware, home served as a tipping point for the appointment of a special counsel, sources familiar with the matter tell ABC News.

President Joe Biden speaks about border security in the Roosevelt Room of the White House, Jan. 5, 2023, in Washington.inside President Joe Biden's Wilmington, Delaware, home served as a tipping point in the lead-up to a special counsel.

While it remains unclear if Biden played any role in the classified documents being in his home or if he was personally aware they were there, sources said their presence meant there would need to be more intensive investigation.It's not unusual for presidents to take classified materials out of the White House while they are in office. But the records at issue were from Biden's vice presidency, which ended in 2017, his lawyers have said.

Garland has been careful to try and make clear that he is running the Justice Department independently, without any favoritism toward President Biden, who appointed him.

ABC has twisted themselves into a pretzel for Biden ThisWeekABC

November*

November discovery, BEFORE the mid term elections Politicized DOJ, FBI, waited to release this information

I think what we all want to know is just how many of these offices and or think tanks the biden family have and what other politicians are doing the same thing? as of right now there should be a policeman at every suspect politician's offfice/s or house/s for document searches

Remember, the maga republican party needed a lie... that would alleviate the pressure of the orange shit stain on their existence. The National Archive-document scandal equivalency, is that lie. Consequently, the dramatization of these circumstances, will play out with impunity!

Or could it be AG Garland trying to protect Biden? A Specoal Counsel can burn up a lot of time. Americans will forget about this in 2 weeks. The media will turn to 'orange man bad' and 'Russia, Russia, Russia'.

You still haven't answered the question, none of the beltway media has.. Did Biden deliberately box up and take documents, steel classified information? Did he ignore requests to return them? Oh that's right they self-reported.

Security Risk Joey stole classified documents!

Just because documents were found,don’t mean he knew anything about them. Let that sink in. I think someone paid one of his security detail to plant them.

No, the mid-January news break of said documents led to the special counsel.

Early November *
