Oversight Committee Receives Additional Biden Documents from National Archives
The House Oversight Committee received nearly 6,000 pages of documents, including 211 emails, from the National Archives in relation to the impeachment inquiry of President Joe Biden.
General Counsel Gary Stern sent two letters to Committee Chairman James Comer, acknowledging the document turnover, as reported by Axios.
Following allegations of obstruction by the National Archives and growing doubts among Republicans about the impeachment outcome, Stern stated that the Archives are working on a rolling notification process for both former and current Presidents regarding the information.
The emails provided cover various requests from the committee, including Biden’s use of a pseudonym while he was vice president, drafts of a speech to the Ukrainian government in 2015, and communications with Hunter Biden and his associates.
Over 20,000 pages of emails related to Hunter Biden and the Biden family have been released, with an additional 75,000 pages handed over to House Republicans, according to a senior Democratic aide.
The National Archives has increased its staff and is responding to requests in good faith, as previously revealed emails indicated Biden’s use of private accounts during his vice presidency.
Despite initial intentions of impeachment, Comer now aims at seeking criminal referrals for potential action by a future Department of Justice under a different administration.
