Comer said classified information contradicts statements made by White House and Biden's personal attorneys.
The White House misled Congress and the American people about the discovery and handling of classified documents that were in President Joe Biden's possession at an insecure office at his old university think tank job, the chairman of the House Oversight and Accountability Committee alleged Wednesday,
Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., made the allegations and demanded interviews with five White House officials just days after Biden was interviewed by Special Counsel Robert Hur in a criminal investigation of the same documents discovered last year at the University of Pennsylvania's Penn Biden Center in Washington D.C.
Specifically, Comer revealed in a letter to White House Counsel Edward Siskel that evidence showed the White House first learned about the documents at the university office in March 2021, even though it originally claimed the documents were found in November of the following year. It identified at least five interactions White House and Biden attorneys had regarding the documents that were kept from Congress.
"President Biden’s timeline was incomplete and misleading," Comer declared in a statement issued Wednesday afternoon. "It omitted months of communications, planning, and coordinating among multiple White House officials, Ms. [Kathy] 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.

P
whenever a democrat charges anyone of some wrong thing, go to the democrat’s house and backyard and find all that he charges the others with!
NOT misled. LIED.
But wait....he has been cooperating...
You mean all these Lawyers and other Public Employee’s COMMITTED FRAUD and LIED to the Congress and the American People...
NOBODY IS ABOVE THE LAW, I expect Criminal Indictments for every person listed.
Oversight Chair Comer: “Biden’s timeline was incomplete and mislead Congress.”
<><>It omitted months of communiques, planning, and coordinating among multiple WH officials,
<><>including Kathy Chung, U of Penn Biden Center employees, and Mr Biden’s personal attys
<><>the named retrieved the boxes containing Biden’s classified materials.
<><>also omitted were multiple visits from five or more WH employees,
<><>WH’ers Dana Remus, Anthony Bernal, Ashley Williams, Annie Tomasini, and an unknown staffer.
Later – w/ the tax-paying public unaware of the Bidens predicament – the vengeful Biden WH -——desperate to divert attention from his and Hunter’s document criminality-—
<><>instructed the tax-paid Natl Archives to give the Biden FBI access to 15 boxes of govt memos —some classified — that President Trump had in his Florida home,
<><>which the frantic Biden ramped up into a full-blown criminal probe of Trump, his 2024 opponent.
The above the law left really needs an ass kicking. I hope I live long enough to see it.
There must have been an inventory BEFORE they dropped them off. Which barbecue pit did they use?
Just what are the details of his "demand"?
So? What exactly will these Republican pussies do about it?
Bet he sold access to those files.
The problem exists that Congress in not a law enforcement agency. The fascist FBI should be called on to do its duty.
(Don’t make me laugh, my lips are chapped.)
Congress has only two potential remedies. They can impeach Biden and it will be dead in the Senate. So that’s out. The other remedy is not passing more do-nothing laws. It’s actually doing nothing, as in not passing appropriation bills until problems like this are solved. They have the power of the purse and they should use it. It’s not greenmail when Biden is actually guilty.
All of Biden’s actions are a facade to for his cover ups of his shady dealings.
Huey P. Long thought he held the record for it but doesn’t come close.
If there is months of evidence Biden lied Comer should show it TODAY.
He’s been teasing info without releasing it.
Biden, the White House, the DOJ, the FBI, the State Department, and the[.........] lied about [.........] to the American people.
Just fill in the blanks in regards to any given subject, and you will be correct.

Top tax-paid Biden aide with close ties to Hunter Biden
first WH staffer to handle classified docs, new timeline reveals
Annie Tomasini searched Biden’s classified docs over a year before they were “said” to be found. She’s a top aide to Biden ........w/ 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 U of Penn think tank, according to a new timeline by the House Oversight Committee.
Oversight Committee Chair James Comer recently pressed the White House 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 said.
“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.”

Tomasini is not only a senior adviser to Biden but also a close friend of the Biden family, including Hunter. She maintained close relations with Hunter, in some cases referring to him as her “brother,” and often ended her emails with “LY” for “love you,” according to emails dating from 2010 to 2016.
For example, in December 2010, Biden announced that Tomasini was stepping down to take a position with Harvard University. Tomasini kept Hunter clued in on the details of that position before she took it, according to emails on his abandoned laptop, Fox News Digital verified. The month prior, in November 2010, she forwarded information to Hunter about Harvard’s employee benefits and added, “Thanks.” “Hey – I looked at benefits And they look pretty amazing. Any word on comp?” Hunter responded. “I’ll keep you posted. Thanks for looking at all the background Hunt,” Tomasini said.
Later that month, Tomasini was offered the job, “Director of intergovernmental relations. > 120k ish – may be a little higher.” Tomasini thanked him and said she would tell his father the news. Months later, Hunter gave a speech at Harvard, but only after he ran the draft by Tomasini first.

Furthermore, President Biden regularly met with his inner circle at the Wilmington, Delaware, home where classified documents were also discovered. Hunter Biden had stayed at the house during the COVID-19 pandemic. While the White House said no visitor logs exist for the president’s Wilmington residence, several people have been identified as guests at the house, a previous Fox News Digital review found. Biden converted the basement of his Wilmington residence into a de facto campaign headquarters in March 2020 at the onset of the pandemic, and he frequently hosted virtual events and would have had to rely on campaign aides to help.
Tomasini and Anthony Bernal, a senior adviser in first lady Jill Biden’s office, “were allowed in regularly” because “neither of them had their own families, which meant they could devote themselves entirely to the Bidens,” according to the book, “Lucky: How Joe Biden Barely Won the Presidency,” by Amie Parnes and Jonathan Allen.
Biden has spent considerable time in Delaware since taking over the presidency. During the visits, Biden stays at his Wilmington or Rehoboth Beach residences and has a full security detail. After the discovery of classified documents at the Penn Biden Center, questions reignited on the likes of Chinese donations to the University of Pennsylvania, which houses the think tank. Hunter Biden had also discussed the center in emails before its launch, Fox News Digital previously reported.

Special Counsel Robert Hur, appointed by Biden Attorney General Merrick Garland, is leading the current probe of Biden’s handling of the classified materials. The investigation stems from a batch of records from his time as vice president, including a “small number of documents with classified markings,” discovered by the president’s attorneys at the Penn Biden Center in early November 2022. The documents were found in a locked closet while preparing to vacate office space at the center, which the president used from mid-2017 until he began the 2020 presidential campaign. The National Archives were notified of the finding and took possession of the documents on Nov. 3, 2022.
Biden, meanwhile, recently conducted two “voluntary” interviews with Hur on Sunday and Monday. “As we have said from the beginning, the President and the White House are cooperating with this investigation, and as it has been appropriate, we have provided relevant updates publicly, being as transparent as we can consistent with protecting and preserving the integrity of the investigation,” said Ian Sams, a spokesperson for the White House Counsel’s Office, the New York Post reported.
The White House did not respond to a Fox News Digital request for comment.
