The National Archives told Congress its staff obtained nine boxes of materials from the Boston office of a personal attorney to President Joe Biden.
A letter sent to a pair of Republican senators this week reportedly divulges new details about the inquiry into Biden’s handling of government documents, specifically about Patrick Moore, the attorney identified as the one who initially found classified materials while packing up the president’s former think tank office in early November.
“When NARA [National Archives and Records Administration] contacted President Biden’s personal counsel on November 3, 2022, to arrange to pick up boxes from the Penn Biden Center in Washington, D.C., they informed NARA that Mr. Moore had moved other boxes from the Penn Biden Center to Mr. Moore’s law firm in Boston,” Acting Archivist of the United States Debra Steidel Wall wrote in the letter dated Tuesday.
Wall divulged that the National Archives was informed Biden’s counsel began their review of the materials in the Penn Biden Center in October 2022 — earlier than previously known — and had moved some boxes to Boston at some point afterwards.
“NARA staff retrieved nine boxes from Mr. Moore’s Boston office” at the request of the Justice Department on November 9 and these boxes were secured in the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library in Boston, Wall wrote. It is not clear whether there is any classified materials in these boxes, as Wall noted that her agency “has not reviewed the contents of the boxes found at Mr. Moore’s Boston office.”
The letter is addressed to Sens. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and Ron Johnson (R-WI), who have written to Wall seeking more information about the discovery of documents marked classified dating back to Biden’s time as vice president and U.S. senator at multiple locations.
