Differences in the Trump, Biden classified document discoveries

Summary by Ground News

Biden's lawyers discovered what they called a small number of classified documents in an office Biden had used between his time serving as vice president and president. The documents were turned over the next day to the National Archives, and the White House said it is cooperating with the Department of Justice as it conducts a review of the documents. The news quickly drew comparisons to former President Trump, who has been in hot water over his potential mishandling of classified materials. But there are key differences between the two cases, which many Biden allies swiftly pointed out.
