a 2nd set of classified documents have been found at president jo biden's private residence in delaware. earlier this week, it was revealed classified documents were found, a biden's, former office at washington think tank this latest discovery could prove to be a political embarrassment for the biden administration. authorities are investigating a bigger a scandal involving the former president, donald trump's, a legend mishandling of classified documents. our white house correspondent, kimberly how that is joining us now from washington dc. so we're learning more about this new batch of documents. kimberly, what's the latest at the white house, releasing a statement from the white house council richard solver that says that the white house in light of this latest discovery of another batch of documents is fully cooperated with the national archive. as well as the department of justice, the statement goes on to say that the additional documents that were retrieved during the obama biden administration are now in the possession of the archives.

and that they were discovered following the initial discovery of the batch of dot documents that was 1st found in november as the pen bite and center. now, of following that discovery, the 1st batch of documents, there was subsequently another search to make sure there were no other documents that may be lingering, and that is when there was a search of the vice for vice president at the time joe biden. now of course the president is residences, not only in wilmington, delaware, but also in ra hope with beach, delaware. now what we know is that there was nothing turned up in the beach residents, but in his private home, in wilmington, there were additional documents found not only in the garage, but also in an adjacent room. we understand that those documents have now been turned over to the national archive freight. and we understand that president biden

has responded to questions about the documents. what did he off to say? have you as president and consistent with the white house press secretary in recent days, really down playing the controversy or that suggesting that there is any controversy at all the president tended to read out just moments ago. a similar statement to the white house council, stumbling a little bit through some of the legal jargon, but then looking up at reporters and saying, look at i take this very seriously and implying that in no way did he, a hat miss handle any documents. but at the same time, given some of the president sharp criticism of his predecessor former president donald trump, where he alleged that, the former president mishandled it was highly, you're responsible for keeping documents at his private residence. the fact that now he has himself, i had documents founded his own private home,

is certainly going to open him up to his political adversaries for criticism. and also as going to open him up to the allegations that he himself may have mishandled documents already. we're hearing from republicans on capitol hill that he may have exposed a trade craft intelligence methods and, and otherwise. so certainly this is going to open the white house up to further questions scrutiny and allegations of hypocrisy. all right, thank you so much. our white house correspondent, kimberly, how can the ukraine says its forces are still holding onto the eastern toner solider, but the fighting is tough. the russian mercenary wagner group has led the offensive and says that it sees the tone. we'll get more of the wagner group in a report from, with the hemi than just a moment. but 1st, the kremlin has warned against declaring victory prematurely suggesting the

of the largest non nuclear blasts in recent history. and lebanon's leadership has been standing in the way of accountability, trying to replace the judge because by the judge that the politically automated people get with phone calls. so it's a big, big deal. we will know that they managed to do so because of the board was just, you know, was gone so far, the authorities haven't been able to appoint a 2nd judge. every judge in dead must know that a precautions of them are going to the duty to the divergence and to the covering the justice. but officials have blocked the investigation for more than a year. now they have filed lawsuit against the lead investigator tonic baton, preventing him from proceeding with his investigation. it has been established that

found to biden's former office at a washington think tank in november. ukraine says its forces are still holding on to the eastern town of solids. are their russian mercenary wagner groups as it sees the area. but the kremlin has warrens against declaring what it called a premature victory. the palestinian health ministry says is really for sins have killed a palestinian man in the occupied west bank. samira salon was shot during a morning rain near. i'm along. he's the 4th palestinian to be killed there in the past 24 hours held these indifferent located. we're taking allies to the united states where the speaker, kevin mccarthy, is taking questions on biden's classified documents. let's listen in for a moment to president biden before the election, but they kept the secret from the american public. he goes on 60 minutes, criticizes president, trump even knowing what he has done and he wasn't president at the time. now we

find another location that it's at, but he refused to answer his press. secretary won't answer the questions when you watched them leak photos is sitting out files, the president, trump, where's the photos? a president biden's documents. where are those photos that he knowingly knew? this happened going into a lecture going into interviews. this is what makes america not trust their government. you cannot have one form a law because somebody philosophically has a different opinion. you and you can't use the justice department to go after people that are politically different as well. it has to be equal, a call across, and what i'm finding, what's happened with president biden time, and again, you go from a laptop saying it not only that it wasn't true, but utilizing your own friends to go in to companies to tell them to say the same thing to try to knock down information to try to make sure the new york post story

couldn't be printed. you should be offended by that. you are of the press. you should be allowed to write even when you knew it was true. so i oh, hired haskins as part of the court looked to one thing. i know i've watched when republicans were in power. those 8 years discretionary spending increased. 0 i watched democrat takes over 4 years, the increased it by 30 percent. they went on 4 trillion to 7 children. i watched a $31.00 trillion dollar debt. i watched inflation grow under their fiscal policies . we've got to get our house in order. the one thing i will tell you is republicans, we will always protect medicare and social security. we will protect that for the next generation going forward. but we're going to scrutinize every single dollar spent. it's the right. it's the hard working taxpayer that actually pays it. and we want to make sure it's spent wisely and not the. busy of the democrats have spent

on it along with the resolution funds. one of them are hoping to come from egan to possibly vote. what do you think of that? is that something that you'd be kind of a, i'd have to look when you, when you look at, when you find the final information that the russia document was all lie. when you watch one went through, i had understand why members would want to bring that forward. our 1st priority is get our economy back on track. busy secure our borders, make our streets safe again. give parents the opportunity of a stay in their kids education and actually hold government accountable. but i understand why individual want to do would look at even ha, now a bunch of different 20 them last congress called on to here lucy, at the time to release the j 6 capital hold security. what is all things had happened on that day? is that something that you'd be interested in doing constant gain said that it would be willing to do that? yeah, i think the public should see what has happened on day it. i've watched with nancy

pelosi did where she politicized it. were for the 1st time in the history as a speaker, not allowing the minority to appoint to a committee, to pick and choose. we watched the politicization of this, i think the american public should actually see all what happened instead of a report this written for political basis. and i think the answer, we're looking through that i want to be very thoughtful about it, but yes, i'm engaged. i think they're on the deck with what we want to make sure that we don't want to put any fiscal problems through our economy and we won't, but we, but we're fiscal problems. we'd be continuing to do business. as usual. i remembered when trump was president and nancy pelosi was speaker, they became a debt ceiling agreement and it was a cap agreement for 2 years to kept the spending and make those decisions. this is something that people have utilized,

but i ask all of you and all americans if you have a child and you give them a credit card and they spend the limit, so you increase the limit again and again and again. when does it end? we've got to change the way we are spending money wastefully in this country and we're going to make sure that happens. it's a hard working taxpayer to, oh, how are you? it's good to see. horton seemed a little bit dismissive of some of the house republican plans to to jayce tolliver some of the yahoo publican. what did he say? i don't have the exact quote on me. i'm sorry. he seemed to think that what happens in the house happens in the house, but the senate needs to be bipartisan. have you coordinate that venture? that's interesting because because in the, in the house here i, we just had probably one, the biggest bipartisan votes collect a select committee on china. i don't know is the senate even in this week. what did they do this week? oh yeah, they haven't done anything. so i think the house has been very productive in the 1st 5 days, but yes,

i sat down with all the republican senators and talked to them about ways that they could be more productive. they didn't pass one appropriation. bill last year. they didn't pass in in d a so the ways we can make the senate more productive would be great. so that is the us house speaker, kevin mccarthy. speaking on the recent u. s. document found on president jo biden's presidency and what he said is that congress must investigate the president over the classified documents. this is according to the us speaker, kevin mccarthy. and just to remind you off the issue at hand. is that the white house or earlier in the past few hours or so has now confirmed that a 2nd set of classified documents have been found at president jo biden's private residence in delaware. we'll keep an eye out on all developments out of capitol hill and bring them to you as in when we get them right here on al jazeera. we will move on to other news and tell you about the global climate change report that says

built in the last 2 years. they basically have built all these wooden structures, wooden hub and fill. you can see climate activists up there. they're still waiting for police to reach them to have put themselves is very high and complicated position to make it harder for police to get to them. but very rapidly, also, these cranes have been brought in by police. they have been hearing down all over this whole side to sell a lot of free houses left that some have been demolished already had this house is now also been demolished by police a few 100. maybe it's very unclear to say how many are still here, but they're holding up as well in the houses that remained from this little village . it was a village with around a 100 people, many and most of the rest and all the rest of them. i have to say have left a while ago because the energy company, w e had basically compensated them. they were long legal battles,

but they lost all these legal battles. but a 1000 climate activists had moved in here for the last 2 years to have the base here they had the community here. so we've been speaking to them all day. and it's very sad condition right now because the whole community is be basically been torn down and this is not, of course, the main problem. the main problem is that the mind that they were protesting against which is right behind us is going to be expanded very soon. now. the largest known deposit of rare earth minerals in europe has just been discovered and sweden's arctic. a mining company says it's identified more than a 1000000 tons near one if it's iron or mines in crude. rare earth minerals are vital for the construction of things like electric cars, as well as microphones and speakers. they're also used to make wind turbines for the company says the find could be crucial for europe's transition to renewable energy's right. now, europe is dependence on imports from china,
