‘Nothing there’ Biden downplays classified documents issue

GBNEWS24DESK//

US President Joe Biden on Thursday downplayed the furor over the discovery of old classified documents improperly stored in his personal belongings, saying “there’s nothing there.” Asked by reporters during a trip to California about the issue, he said: “I think you’re going to find there’s nothing there. I have no regrets. I’m following what the lawyers have told me they want me to do. It’s exactly what we’re doing. There’s no there there.” Biden’s defiant comments came just over a week after news first emerged that around a dozen secret documents dating from his time as vice president to Barack Obama had been found sitting in a former Biden office space.
