The FBI is expected to search former Vice President Mike Pence’s Indiana home for classified material in the coming days, according to people familiar with the matter, as senior government officials come under increased law-enforcement scrutiny of their handling of such documents.
The Justice Department is in talks with Mr. Pence’s legal team about scheduling the search, the people said.
Last month, following similar revelations from President Biden’s legal team, Mr. Pence’s lawyers disclosed they had discovered several documents with classification markings at his home and turned them over to authorities. They said the documents had been inadvertently packed up and transported and that Mr. Pence was unaware of their existence.
[Great. They *should* investigate it, because such unauthorized possession and storage is a crime. The question is why they took so long to do the same with Joe Biden, and why they still aren’t looking at the Biden home in McLean, VA, or Biden’s Senate records stored at the University of Delaware. — Ed]
