Brief:
The Secret Service says that there are no records of visitors to President Biden’s Delaware residence, where he has resided for one-fifth of his presidency.
Background:
According to the New York Post, the Secret Service says it cannot find any records that identify visitors to President Biden’s Delaware residences.
The agency denied a Freedom of Information Act appeal from the New York Post. The New York Post is evaluating legal options to acquire records of who visited the president during the nearly 200 days he was at his Wilmington and Rehoboth Beach homes.
20% of Biden’s presidency so far has been spent away from the White House and in his Delaware residence.
Rep. James Comer said that the lack of records are suspicious given Hunter Biden’s international dealings:
The claim that there are no visitor logs for President Biden’s Delaware residence is a bunch of malarkey. Americans deserve to know who President Biden is meeting with, especially since we know that he routinely met with [first son] Hunter’s business associates during his time as vice president. The Biden administration must provide transparency to the American people.
Republicans are vowing to investigate further. “Next year, House Republicans will conduct a fair and transparent investigation into the Biden family’s influence peddling and deliver the American people the answers they deserve,” said Rep. Guy Reschenthaler (R-PA).
