There is now talk of a garage-gate after the discovery of a second series of classified papers linked to the period of Joe Biden's vice presidency in the USA. The discovery was made public by the White House. His lawyers, it was announced, recovered “a small number of other Obama-Biden administration documents with classification marks among personal and political papers. All but one were found in storage in the garage of the president's residence" in Wilmington. «A single page document was discovered among material stored in an adjacent room», while «no document was found in the Rehoboth Beach residence», his beach house.

"We are confident that a thorough examination will show that the documents were moved in error and that the president and his lawyers acted promptly upon discovery," the White House said. The lawyers reiterated that they "fully collaborated" with the Justice Department and informed it immediately, as they did after the discovery of the top secret papers last November 2 in a former Biden office in a think tank in Washington.

At the end of a press conference, the president was pressed by a Fox reporter: "Classified documents near your Corvette?" “My Corvette is in a locked garage, okay? It's not as if they had been in the middle of the street», the Washington number one replied piqued, also revealing that the search for other government documents after those found in November is over, adding a question about the lengthy times of the investigations.
