Joe Biden on Friday sat down for a one-on-one softball interview with ABC’s David Muir to discuss Russia, China, Ukraine, the impending nuclear war and scandals plaguing his adminsistration.
David Muir asked Joe Biden about his classified documents scandal.
Joe Biden stole SCIF-designated classified documents and improperly stored them at the Penn Biden Center.
Biden also stored classified documents in his garage next to his Corvette where his son Hunter had access to the sensitive materials.
Biden scolded David Muir for daring to ask if he was “irresponsible” for improperly storing classified documents.
“Can you assure the American people that none of the documents discovered in your garage or your old office compromised sources or methods or U.S. intelligence?” Muir asked.
Biden deflected and said he was advised by his counsel not to discuss the case since it is an ‘ongoing’ Justice Department investigation.
“I’ve been advised by the counsel, let the Justice Department make that decision to not try to alter the case in any way,” Biden said.
Muir pressed Biden, “When you hear about boxes in your garage or in your old office, you call the Trump discovery ‘Irresponsible.’ Is there something irresponsible here though, too?”
Biden pointed his finger at David Muir and fired back.
“You know, you’re a good lawyer,” Biden said scolding him. “But you’re trying to make a comparison. There’s degrees of irresponsibility that are – they can be significant degrees of responsibility. The way in which the boxes were packed up from my office, apparently, not everything was gone through as meticulously as it should have. But there was no intention.”

Pres. Biden tells @DavidMuir that “there’s degrees of irresponsibility” when it comes to the DOJ’s investigations into both him and former Pres. Trump over the discovery of classified documents. “There’s nothing for me to hide.” he adds. https://t.co/wIixdvC4aq pic.twitter.com/j1euQZY9Pr
