BACKSTORY-—In a letter dated May 5, 2023, Chair Comer of the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability wrote to former Asst to the President and White House Counsel to President Biden, Dana Remus (now a partner at the Washington law firm Covington & Burling), in the course of the Committee’s ongoing investigation of President Biden’s “mishandling of highly classified documents.”
“The House Committee has obtained information that contradicts important details from the White House’s and President Biden’s personal attorney’s statements about the discovery of documents at the Penn Biden Center, including the location and security of the classified documents.”
“The Committee has learned that you were a central figure in the early stages of coordinating the packing and moving of boxes that were later found to contain classified materials. Following a recent transcribed interview with Ms. Kathy Chung – the President’s former assistant from when he was Vice President and subsequent employee of then-former Vice President Biden’s company, Celtic Capri [now Deputy Director of Protocol, Office of the Secretary of Defense] – the Committee has identified you as a witness with potentially unique knowledge about this matter and requests information from you.”

“Specifically, the Committee seeks clarification regarding
<><>the timeline of events prior to Nov 2, 2022
<><>as per the WH and the Pres Biden’s personal atty, 11/2/22 is the day documents were discovered at the Biden Center),
<><>the security status of the Biden Center documents before and after Ms. Chung packed them,
<><>and President Biden’s history of potentially mishandling classified material.
“In January 2023, President Biden’s personal attorney, Bob Bauer, released a statement that included a timeline of events that inexplicably began on November 2, 2022, with the ‘unexpected[] discover[y]’ of Obama-Biden records at Penn Biden Center.”
“President Biden’s timeline was incomplete and misleading. It omitted months of communications, planning, and coordinating among multiple White House officials, Ms. Chung, Penn Biden Center employees, and President Biden’s personal attorneys to retrieve the boxes containing classified materials.”
” The timeline also omitted multiple visits from at least five White House employees, including Dana Remus, Anthony Bernal, Ashley Williams, Annie Tomasini, and an unknown staffer. There is no reasonable explanation as to why this many White House employees and lawyers were so concerned with retrieving boxes they believed only contained personal documents and materials.”
“While the Biden administration was scheming to jail former President Trump over a similar document dispute, Biden operatives were desperately trying to cover up Biden’s own and more significant document scandal,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “And the cover-up continues with yet another Biden agency hiding records in violation of law.”
