A top aide to President Biden who has close ties to Hunter Biden, even referring to him as a "brother" in emails, was the first person to "take inventory" of Biden’s documents and materials at his think tank, according to a new timeline released by the House Oversight Committee.
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., pressed the White House earlier this week on an "incomplete and misleading" timeline he said that they provided his committee with regard to who had searched through the papers at the Washington, D.C., office for the president's think tank, the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement.
Annie Tomasini, a senior Biden aide, had inspected the classified documents on March 18, 2021, two months after Biden had taken office and nearly 20 months before they were said to be found, Comer's letter said, citing a letter from a Penn Biden Center employee.
"President Biden’s team has misled the American people about the series of events related to his mishandling of classified documents," Comer told Fox News Digital. "Biden’s team told the American people that documents were unexpectedly found in November 2022, but now we know a White House official and close friend of Hunter Biden was tasked with taking inventory of President Biden’s documents and materials in March 2021."
