Dick Durbin of Illinois, one of the Senate’s top Democrats, appeared on CNN’s State of the Union Sunday to trash President Joe Biden’s mishandling of classified documents, calling it “outrageous.”
As we’ve been reporting, new classified docs keep showing up at Biden’s properties, and on Friday the FBI searched his Wilmington, Delaware property for 12 hours and found six more.
Durbin said it was “unacceptable”:
Well, I’m concerned. There’s a standard that we follow when it comes to members of Congress and classified information. The door to my office is closed. The person who presents the document to me takes it out of a locked briefcase, hands it to me and watches as I read it, when I finish reading it, and he takes it back and puts it in the briefcase and leaves the scene.
I mean, that’s how carefully we review these documents. To think that any of them ended up in boxes in storage one place or the other is just unacceptable. [Emphasis mine.]
