House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) subpoenaed President Joe Biden’s ghostwriter, Mark Zwonitzer, on Friday, pressing for details about the president’s handling of classified documents.

Last month, Special Counsel Robert Hur published his findings from his investigation into President Biden’s handling of classified documents. Among the findings, Mr. Hur said in 2016 then-Vice President Biden read off notebook entries, including several that covered classified materials, as he and Mr. Zwonitzer prepared his book “Promise Me Dad,” published in 2017.
