Handwritten notes seized from Joe Biden’s Rehoboth Beach house are now part of Special Counsel Robert Hur’s investigation into Biden’s classified documents scandal.
The FBI searched Joe Biden’s Rehoboth Beach, Delaware home Wednesday morning for more classified documents.
The FBI conducted a search on Wednesday from 8:30 am to noon and found no documents with classified markings.
The agents took handwritten notes that appear to be from Biden’s time as Vice President.

Biden’s personal lawyer Bob Bauer on Wednesday was careful how he worded his statement regarding the handwritten notes seized by federal agents.
Bob Bauer said: “The DOJ’s planned search of the President’s Rehoboth residences, conducted in coordination and cooperation with the President’s attorneys, has concluded. The search was conducted from 8:30 AM to noon. No documents with classified markings were found. Consistent with the process in Wilmington, the DOJ took for further review some materials and handwritten notes that appear to relate to his time as Vice President.”
Handwritten notes can still be considered classified even if they aren’t marked ‘classified.’
Special Counsel Robert Hur is now in possession of Biden’s handwritten notes which may contain classified information.
AP reported:
President Joe Biden is a man who writes down his thoughts. And some of those handwritten musings over his decades of public service are now a part of a special counsel’s investigation into the handling of classified documents.
It isn’t clear yet what the investigators are looking for by taking custody of notes from his time as vice president and his decades in the Senate that were found in his Delaware homes in Rehoboth Beach and Wilmington.
Biden’s attorneys did not say whether the notes were considered to be classified, only that they were removed. But over his 36 years in the Senate and eight as vice president, Biden had a front-row seat to a lot of highly sensitive moments in U.S. history, including the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, the 2011 death of Osama bin Laden and unfolding political turmoil in Ukraine.
