The DOJ was right to appoint a special counsel to investigate Pres. Biden's handling of classified documents, Georgia Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock said.
"Classified documents are to be taken seriously and they are to be handled with a great deal of care and no one is above the law," Warnock told ABC "This Week" co-anchor Jonathan Karl. "So I'm glad to see the Justice Department doing its work, and we ought to let that work proceed.", including those from Biden's time as vice president, were found at an old office that Biden used and at his home in Delaware.
Attorney General Merrick Garland announced Thursday that a special counsel, Robert Hur, would lead the investigation into the Biden documents. The White House has stressed that it was Biden's team who first flagged the materials to the government and that they intend to be cooperative. Warnock touted being "the 18th most bipartisan senator in the Senate," which he linked to his background in the church. Since 2005, he has been the senior pastor of Atlanta's Ebenezer Baptist.
Republicans have called for a borrowing increase to be tied to spending cuts, which the White House has rejected. Warnock said the process shouldn't become chaotic.

Biden to Touch on Voting Rights in Sermon Celebrating MLKPresident Joe Biden is marking what would have been the 94th birthday of the late Martin Luther King with a Sunday sermon at Atlanta’s historic Ebenezer Baptist Church. The president is aiming to celebrate the civil rights leader’s legacy while also reviving the Biden administration’s call for sweeping voting rights legislation. Biden’s failure to win passage of a measure bolstering voting right protections is one of his biggest disappointments of his first two years in office. That tasks is even steeper now that Republicans control the House. Biden was invited to Ebenezer by the church’s senior pastor, Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock.
