• The National Archives (NARA) coordinated with President Biden’s attorneys for the discreet collection of classified documents found at the Penn Biden Center in Washington, D.C., displaying a collaborative spirit in marked contrast to its adversarial stance toward Donald Trump and his legal team in the former president’s federal records case, newly disclosed emails reveal.

• NARA General Counsel Gary Stern sent an email on Nov. 7, one day before the midterm elections, to Biden’s personal attorneys Bob Bauer and Pat Moore asking to “make arrangements” for Archives staff to “come back to the DC Penn-Biden Center space to assess the remaining boxes and take custody of whichever ones we deem appropriate for further review,” according to emails released Friday after a Freedom of Information request from more than two dozen news agencies.
