It’s not every day you find top-secret documents next to the family treadmill and a half-empty bottle of Ensure. But welcome to Joe Biden’s Delaware home, where the nation’s secrets have apparently been enjoying a long and undocumented vacation. That’s right — classified documents were found at the President’s private residence, and now the big question is: who had access?
Well, here’s the fun part — the White House says it doesn’t keep visitor logs for Biden’s Wilmington house. That’s right. No records. Nada. At the same time the Biden team was promising “the most transparent administration in history,” they were apparently running a drop-in daycare for classified materials with no sign-in sheet.
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer is, understandably, not buying it. He’s demanding visitor records and any documentation about who came and went from Biden’s basement bunker. But the White House’s response? A shrug. They claim they don’t track visits to the President’s personal residence. Because, you know, nothing important ever happens there. Except apparently presidential campaign meetings, visits from senators, and debate prep sessions with top-level officials. Just your average weekend at grandpa’s.
Let’s rewind. Public records show that Senators Chuck Schumer and Joe Manchin were at the Wilmington home in 2021 to hash out Biden’s political agenda. That’s not a backyard barbecue — that’s the legislative sausage-making factory. And during the 2020 campaign, this house was practically Biden HQ. Advisers, bundlers, staffers — the whole gang — gathered there to plan, prep, and scheme.
One of those visitors? Ron Klain, who later became White House Chief of Staff. Another guest was Bob Bauer, Obama’s former White House counsel, who reportedly played the role of President Trump during Biden’s debate prep — in the basement. Presumably next to the forgotten top-secret memos.
And then there’s Hunter. Of course, there’s Hunter. According to Comer, as recently as 2018, Hunter Biden had Dad’s Wilmington address on his driver’s license. You know, just in case a Chinese business partner or a Ukrainian board member needed to drop something off — like a laptop, or maybe a few million bucks.
So, let’s tally it up: a private residence doubling as a political war room, a family member with a history of foreign business entanglements living (or at least receiving mail) there, and no visitor logs. And now we find out that classified documents were lounging around the place like forgotten Christmas decorations. Nothing to see here, folks!
The Biden team wants us to believe that this is all just a coincidence. That no one who shouldn’t have had access to those documents ever saw them. That there’s no reason to worry. But here’s a fun fact: if a low-level military officer had done this, they’d already be court-martialed, dishonorably discharged, and halfway through a Netflix documentary about “how it all went wrong.”
Comer’s committee isn’t letting this go, and neither should the American people. Because when a former president — say, Donald Trump — stores documents in a secure facility at Mar-a-Lago, it’s treated like a national scandal. But when Joe Biden stashes them next to the elliptical machine and a pile of old campaign mail? Suddenly, it’s just an honest mistake.
The hypocrisy is thicker than Hunter’s art portfolio.
So the next time you hear the words “no one is above the law,” ask yourself: does that apply to the guy with classified documents in his garage and a son with international business deals, or just to political opponents?
Because if transparency means “we lost the guestbook,” we’ve got bigger problems than misplaced paperwork.
