Former White House press secretary Jen Psaki refused to release the logs.

“A lot of presidents go visit their home when they are president. We also have gone a step further than the prior administration, and many administrations, in releasing visitor logs of people who visit the White House and will continue to do that,” she replied.

On Thursday, Joe Biden’s attorney revealed that Joe Biden had stashed classified documents at his Delaware residence, along with two other locations recently revealed, such as the Penn Biden Center, where classified documents containing sensitive information about Ukraine were stored.

Attorney General Merrick Garland on Thursday appointed a special counsel to investigate the mishandling of classified information.

The document was signed in July 2018:
