Jean-Pierre STILL Deflects Questions About Biden Documents After Pence Discovery

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre repeatedly dismissed questions about the growing investigation of classified documents Tuesday, including as dozens of documents were found inside the Indiana home of former Vice President Mike Pence.

With Biden facing renewed pressure from the Republican Congress and an investigation by special counsel, and within his own party, Jean-Pierre declined to say whether the president would invite the FBI to search his beach house in Rehoboth, Delaware.

The questions arose after a Justice Department search on Friday turned up more materials at his Wilmington home.

“I would refer you to the White House Counsel’s Office, which has been in regular contact with all of you to answer these questions about the law,” he told a White House briefing on Tuesday.

Nor would he venture to speculate on whether there was a “bigger problem” now that the last two vice presidents – Pence and Biden – had found classified material inside their homes.

‘I’m not going to comment from here on that. I’ll forward it to White House counsel, anything related to classified documents here,” she said, sticking to her script.

Asked if Biden should change the qualifying rules he could in the wake of recent events, Jean-Pierre said at one point that he would not comment on a “criminal investigation.”

‘Look, I’m not going to comment on any ongoing criminal investigation, or any investigation. As we all know, the Department of Justice is independent and we will not interfere,’ he said.

Asked by DailyMail.com if he had any reason to believe there were ongoing criminal investigations into the matter, which would be a major breakthrough in the case of either Pence or Biden, he deflected again.

Reporters repeatedly tried to extract information from Jean-Pierre, a day after another White House spokesman, Ian Sams, criticized the media for trying to “get attention” by focusing questions on the issue.

REPORT: White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre brought a large amount of materials to her briefing, but referred several questions to the Justice Department.

President Biden has been hit hard by a series of revelations about classified documents in his possession.

Trip to the beach! Jean-Pierre did not say whether Biden would invite the FBI to search his Delaware beach house, where he traveled last weekend.

A dozen classified documents were discovered and released by former Vice President Mike Pence at his Indiana home.

“I’m just saying I’m not going to comment on any kind of investigation. The Department of Justice is independent and we just don’t comment on any investigation from here,” she said in response to a futile effort.

“Again, I would refer you to the White House counsel’s office on anything related to the investigation,” he said.

Still, questions remain about exactly how much classified material was discovered and how and why Biden allowed it into his home and the former office of the think tank.

His attorney said agents on Friday “took possession of materials they deemed to be within the scope of their investigation, including six items consisting of documents with classification marks and surrounding materials, some of which were from the President’s Senate service and some of which were from his tenure as Vice President.

That leaves open the possibility that some of the items were folders that could have included large or multiple documents.
