Biden Leaves Crime Scene Home in Delaware to Attend Mass, Gets No Questions from White House Reporters

 Joe Biden left his crime scene in home Wilmington, Delaware Saturday evening to attend mass at St. Joseph on the Brandywine Catholic Church. Video of Biden’s arrival at the church shows complete silence from White House pool reporters even though it was revealed earlier in the day that even more illicit classified documents had been found at Biden’s home just two days ago.

Video of Biden arriving at church and later arriving back home was posted by Kyle Mazza (note the long silence by reporters):

 

The AP sent out a couple photos taken by Carolyn Kaster of Biden leaving mass:

The press pool in Wilmington has been unusually quiet for such a news-breaking day of Biden staying at the scene of the crime amid new revelations of even more classified documents found at his home.

CBS News reported Saturday that Biden West Wing staffers were upset with how Biden and his team are handling the burgeoning scandal (excerpt):

Over the course of the week, West Wing staffers, officials across the Biden administration and Democratic Party officials more broadly expressed frustration to CBS News with how the White House has explained to the general public the discovery of documents with classified markings at President Biden’s former office and his home in Delaware.

Those who spoke to CBS News, who were granted anonymity to speak frankly about the situation and not upset their professional relationships, believe the decision not to disclose the discovery of the documents sooner undercuts the president’s precious vows of transparency and professional management of the government.

And they are concerned that, with a special counsel investigation now underway, the White House will be severely limited in what it can say, making it unable to confirm even basic details.

“They’re trying to put lipstick on a pig,” one Democrat close to the White House said Friday. “The problem is this week they got handed 50 pigs and one stick of lipstick.”

Biden is scheduled to leave Wilmington for a few hours on Sunday to speak at the historic Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta to mark the Martin Luther King Day holiday weekend.
