#shorts On 1/12/2023, a reporter asked White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, “To go back to something we were trying to pin down yesterday, can you tell us today when did the President find out initially about that first batch of documents and then the second batch? Our reporting says he was told on November 2nd. Is that true?”
MS. JEAN-PIERRE: So what I can say to you is that the President has been kept in — has been kept informed by his counsel throughout this process.
Reporter: date the documents were found in each case?
MS. JEAN-PIERRE: I don’t — I don’t have a specific date, but I can tell you that the President was kept informed throughout. I don’t have a timeline to share for you right now.
Reporter: Can you tell us when the search started and why they were searching in the first place? Was the President concerned that there may be classified documents? Did someone tip them off? What sparked this?
MS. JEAN-PIERRE: Again, I’m just not going to go into details from here. I’m not going to go into specifics from here.
