How much time did Hunter spend at Wilmington home where classified documents were kept? Republicans demand answers on if Joe’s son conducted business deals with U.S. ‘adversaries’ from address he used for his driver’s license
- Rep. James Comer, Ky., said the same address where the documents were found was listed on Hunter Biden’s driver’s license as recently as 2018
- Comer said he was concerned Hunter lived in such proximity to classified files ‘while engaging in international business deals with adversaries’
House Oversight Republicans are demanding to know whether Hunter Biden was living at President Biden’s Wilmington home and conducting ‘international business deals’ while there were classified files in the garage.
Oversight Chair Rep. James Comer, Ky., noted that documents on file with his committee show that the same address where the documents were found was listed on Hunter Biden’s driver’s license as recently as 2018.
Emails found on Hunter Biden’s laptop he left at a computer repair shop show that he listed his father’s Wilmington address as his own residence for his credit card and his Apple account in 2018 and 2019, Fox News pointed out.
New York Post reporter Miranda Devine, author of the book ‘Laptop From Hell,’ pointed out that Hunter listed the Wilmington address on a background screening document.
‘The committee is concerned President Biden stored classified documents at the same location his son resided while engaging in international business deals with adversaries of the United States,’ Comer wrote in a letter to White House Counsel Stuart Delery.
Comer asked for information on all classified documents retrieved by Biden aides at any location and complete lists of everyone who searched for documents and every location that had been searched. He also asked for all communications between the White House and Department of Justice and National Archives and Records Administration (NARA).
On Thursday the White House confirmed a second trove of classified documents was found at the president’s private residence in Wilmington, Delaware.

Biden admitted earlier that the documents were in his garage, and made no accusations of foul play.
‘So the documents were in a locked garage?’ Fox News’ Peter Doocy asked the president earlier.
‘Yes, along with my corvette,’ he replied.
President Biden’s lawyers conducted a search of his Wilmington and Rehoboth Beach homes after news broke this week that classified documents from the Obama White House were found at Biden’s think tank office in Washington, D.C. on November 2.
Democrats have largely avoided direct criticism Biden over the documents. Rep. Adam Schiff, former Intel chairman, said that any time classified documents were found where they shouldn’t be it is cause for ‘concern.’
Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries told reporters Thursday: ‘I have full faith and credit in President Biden.’
‘I believe that he’s doing everything to take the appropriate steps to determine what happened and how to move forward in a responsible fashion,’ Jeffries continued. ‘And I’m confident that he will continue to do so.’
The White House has said the first trove of documents were found days before midterm elections as they were clearing out the office space and immediately turned over to the National Archives.
Biden said he was ‘surprised’ to learn of the initial documents and did not know their contents.
‘I was briefed about this discovery and surprised to learn that there were any government records that were taken there to that office,’ Biden added. ‘But I don’t know what’s in the documents. My lawyers have not suggested I ask what documents they were.’
