Lindsey Graham Rushes to Biden’s Defense Over Classified Doc Scandal
On Tuesday, Senator Lindsey Graham rushed to the defense of Joe Biden, who’s under investigation after classified documents were found at his residence.
Instead of condemning Biden for the scandal, Senator Graham is coming to his defense saying he doesn’t believe anything sinister going on.
One reporter asked Graham was his national security questions were surrounding the Biden scandal.
“What was the same thing for Trump. I mean, why did you do it? Forward the documents? How were they held? Who had access to them?” Graham said as he turned into a bumbling mess.
Graham then rushed to Biden’s aid saying, “let me just say that so I’ve known President Biden for a long time, I don’t think there is…I would be shocked if there’s anything sinister here.”

On January 12 and January 20, further documents were discovered in Joe Biden’s library. The documents, which were found at his private office and residence, are related to scandals involving: Ukraine, Iran, China, and the United Kingdom.
There is large reason to believe Biden provided classified information to his son Hunter to give him an upper hand in his international business. Emails found on the “Laptop from Hell” reveal that on April 13, 2014, Hunter Biden sent a comprehensive email on Ukraine to his business associate.
This suggests that Hunter Biden may have been sharing information he obtained from his father Joe Biden or from classified documents.
The classified document saga took another turn on Tuesday when documents were found in former Vice President Mike Pence’s home in Indiana.
The news from Pence comes after President Joe Biden has found a trove of documents throughout his home and office.
As CNN reported:
A lawyer for former Vice President Mike Pence discovered about a dozen documents marked as classified at Pence’s Indiana home last week, and he has turned those classified records over to the FBI, multiple sources familiar with the matter told CNN.
The FBI and the Justice Department’s National Security Division have launched a review of the documents and how they ended up in Pence’s house in Indiana.
The classified documents were discovered at Pence’s new home in Carmel, Indiana, by a lawyer for Pence in the wake of the revelations about classified material discovered in President Joe Biden’s private office and residence, the sources said. The discovery comes after Pence has repeatedly said he did not have any classified documents in his possession.
It is not yet clear what the documents are related to or their level of sensitivity or classification. Pence’s team plans to notify Congress on Tuesday.
As we reported yesterday, Rep. Michael McCaul of Texas, who is now the head of the House Foreign Affairs Committee and a member of the GOP, compared the increasing amount of confidential documents discovered at President Biden’s residence in Delaware to the Watergate scandal that caused President Richard Nixon to step down.
