evidence: Almost from the day news broke that classified documents had turned up in the home and former office of President Biden, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has responded to questions about the matter by essentially not responding. [...] As White House officials and Axelrod have noted, there are valid reasons Jean-Pierre can’t say much about the documents. Biden’s handling of documents, like Trump’s, is being investigated by a special counsel overseen by the Justice Department, who could pursue any false statement from the White House as evidence of tampering. Biden has also been careful to avoid any hint that he is attempting to influence the Justice Department, though he has dismissed the issue by saying "there’s no there there." [...] Jean-Pierre may have learned that lesson the hard way. A few days after news first broke that classified documents had been found at Biden’s personal offices, she told reporters that a thorough search had turned up no more. As it happened, a new batch of documents had already been found.
