House Oversight Committee Chairman Comer Requests Secret Service Turn Over Biden’s Delaware Visitor Logs

Chairperson of the House Oversight Committee James Comer (R-KY), the question Secret Service on Monday to hand over any information about people who have visited President Joe Biden’s Wilmington, Delaware, home since he left the Obama administration in 2017.

“Given the White House’s lack of transparency regarding President Biden’s residential visitor logs, the Committee seeks information from the Secret Service regarding who had access to his home since serving as Vice President,” Comer wrote in letter Kimberly Cheatle is the head of Secret Service.

HOUSE OVERSIGHT ZEROES IN ON BIDEN FINANCES IN WAKE OF CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS SCANDAL

The letter came days after the Secret Service reportedly signaled a willingness to cooperate with a congressional investigation into Biden’s handling of classified documents.

Either Biden’s legal team or FBI agents have, on at least four occasions, discovered unsecured classified records in the Wilmington home — some dating all the way back to Biden’s time as a U.S. senator.

A lot of the material is about his time as vice-president.

The White House said it kept no visitor logs for Biden’s private home in Wilmington.

While Biden’s team has touted its maintenance of visitor logs for the White House as a sign of its commitment to transparency, no logs appear to have been released Despite the White House promising that the logs would be published monthly, they have been missing since September.

The Secret Service does background checks on certain people who visit Wilmington’s residence. They have at least a partial list that could have entered the house.

These details are important for congressional investigators as Biden kept some classified material inside his garage and in rooms within the house that visitors could have accessed.

Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, spent time living at the residence and conducting business overseas while classified records remained scattered in the home, raising concern among House Republicans who already planned to investigate Hunter Biden’s foreign consulting work.

Sixteen people were taken into custody by the FBI “items” containing classified documents from Biden’s home on Friday during a more than 10-hour search, Biden’s personal attorney said; whether those items were boxes of documents or individual papers, the attorney has not yet clarified.

The White House has refused to answer basic questions about the number and nature of documents found in Wilmington and at Biden’s private office in Washington, D.C.

Comer leads one of two House Republican investigations of classified documents scandal that has overshadowed much of the White House agenda.

Jim Jordan, House Judiciary Chairman (Republican-of-Ohio), is leading a separate investigation into the Justice Department’s handling of the Biden inquiry from its earliest days and why Justice Department officials seem to have taken more aggressive steps in a similar investigation involving former President Donald Trump.
