A White House spokesperson on Monday said President Joe Biden isn’t involved in an intelligence assessment of former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago handling of allegedly classified materials.

“It is an appropriate action for the director in the intelligence community to undertake, but, again, I'll let them speak to the details of this,” Kirby said Monday. But he added the White House is “not involved” in the assessment and said it is within the “purview” of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), which leads 17 separate U.S. intelligence agencies.
