the national archives once they did find that first batch of classified documents. and mj, one question republicans this is who could have been around the documents at these locations. one thing raised over the weekend where republicans were asking the white house if there was some kind of visitor log that they had at these private residences and the white house responded, what did they say? reporter: they said the visitors logs simply don t exist. that was the response we got from the white house counsel s office. the u.s. secret service has also said, look, a president s private residence remains private, so there are no visitor logs. i think in general what we re seeing as sort of a theory of the case from the white house is that they do not think that public disclosure of any information while this investigation is ongoing is productive. they really just don t want to interfere. i think we re seeing that coming from everyone from the president on down. he spoke at this mlk day
voting rights measures the biden, supported failed to win the 60 votes needed to pass the senate. and now, with republicans running the house, passing voting rights bills will be even tougher. house republicans are focused on investigating the president and a classified material that was discovered in biden s home as normal office this weekend the white house revealed more pages that the classified markings, were found at his delaware residents. the chairman of the house oversight committee, as demanded to see visitor logs from by biden s home, but the white house on the secret service, say they are not keep visitor log for private homes. that is not unique to president biden, it is standard practice. today, house speaker kevin mccarthy was asked about congressional investigations into president biden, and here s what he had to say. when i looked at where the data more the amid information, and all the documents that are out, there if there s a lot of
