The newly minted Republican chairmen of two House committees announced investigations of Biden — but not of Trump or former Vice President Mike Pence, who confessed that he too had found classified documents at home. “It will inevitably affect a jury; they’ll wonder why the government isn’t prosecuting Joe Biden,” said Paul Rosenzweig, another former Justice Department official. “We apply the facts and the law in each case in a neutral, nonpartisan manner.” That’s why he appointed a second special counsel, Robert K. Hur, to investigate the Biden documents.
