DOJ tells Jordan disclosing info on Biden documents probe to Congress would jeopardize investigation
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan is investigating President Biden's 'mishandling' of classified records and the DOJ's probe of the matter
By Brooke Singman , David Spunt , Jake Gibson | Fox News
The Justice Department told House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan on Monday that it could not disclose information related to the special counsel investigation into President Biden’s improper retention of classified documents because doing so could jeopardize the probe.
Jordan, R-Ohio, launched his first formal investigation as chair of the House Judiciary Committee into Biden’s "mishandling" of classified records and the DOJ’s investigation.
Jordan announced the panel’s investigation after Attorney General Merrick Garland picked former U.S. attorney Robert Hur as special counsel to investigate the matter—escalating it to a formal investigation from a mere review as more classified records were discovered at the president’s Delaware home.
In a letter to Garland, Jordan and Rep. Mike Johnson, R-La., demanded answers on the appointment of a special counsel, and questioned the alleged concealment of information by the DOJ. Jordan is demanding all documents and communications regarding the appointment of Hur and between the DOJ and the FBI related to the classified materials.

Is this the same DOJ that staged photos of classified documents at Mar-A-Lago and then leaked them to the press? Or that shared investigation info with the Jan 6 committee?
