Vice President Mike Pence discovered classified documents in Indiana home

Vice President Mike Pence informed Congress Tuesday that he discovered documents bearing classified markings in his Carmel, Indiana, home on Jan. 16 from his time as vice president.

Following the revelations that classified documents from President Biden's tenure as vice president were found at the Penn Biden Center think tank and Wilmington, Delaware, the vice president's team conducted searches of Pence's Indiana home and political advocacy group, Advancing American Freedom, office.

According to his team, Pence informed the National Archives on Jan. 18 of a small number of potential classified documents found in two small boxes. Another two boxes contained copies of vice presidential papers. The National Archives then informed the FBI per standard procedure.

Pence attorney Greg Jacob wrote on Jan. 18 Acting Director Kate Dillon McClure of the White House Liaison Division National Archives and Records Administration to inform her of the papers "containing classified markings."

After the documents with classified markings were discovered, they were immediately put into a safe, according to the Pence team.

The documents were collected by the FBI at Pence's home in Carmel, Indiana, on Thursday evening, Jan. 19. Pence was in Washington, D.C. for the annual March for Life when the FBI collected the documents.

I’m not defending Pence, but I’m wondering if these were planted to minimize Biden’s mishandling.

Or Pence is purposefully trying to take some heat off fellow swamp-creature Biden.

Exactly. When you can’t make the evidence go away, just water it down. “We all do it.”

I suspect that all the former presidents and VPs and a large number of congresscritters have classified documents in unsecured locations, whether intentional or accidental,

Guaranteed that Obama, Bush, Clinton, Cheney, and Gore have some too.

Obama supposedly took some 3 Millon pages of documents when he left.

Why do I get the feeling that he was asked to “come clean” so the White House and media could continue with their current narrative that this is not uncommon and documents are over-classified (except in the case of that crooked guy Trump)?

Now Pence will be on the front pages instead of Biden. How convenient!

The extraordinary thing was selectively treating it as a crime in Trumps case. Now issue is boomeramging.

Yep. They tried to make a criminal affair out of Trump doing it because "Orange Man Bad" and now they're all getting bitten in the ass.

I full expect Obama and Bush will soon be coughing up classified docs in their residences as well.

As was said on a podcast I listen to, "Trump ruined all the fun."

Doubtful. More likely everyone does it because there is too much information being classified and distributed.
