The Democratic National Committee paid President Joe Biden's legal bills of $1.5 million for the classified documents scandal, financial filings show.
Special counsel Robert Hur launched a probe into Biden in January 2023 for mishandling classified documents.
From July 2023 to February 2024, the DNC paid $1.05 million to Bob Bauer PLLC - the professional limited liability company for Biden's lead attorney, Bob Bauer.
Hur's investigation, which concluded in February, found Biden "Willfully" retained classified documents but declined to prosecute him, citing "Insufficient evidence." Hur characterized Biden as "An elderly man with a poor memory."
Special counsel Jack Smith filed the second indictment against Trump on June 8, 2023, the same day damning allegations surfaced about Joe and Hunter Biden.
Special counsel Jack Smith delivers remarks on a recently unsealed indictment against former President Donald Trump at the Justice Department on June 9, 2023 in Washington, DC. Months prior, in March, a member of Biden's counsel's office met with a top member of Smith's team, just nine weeks before he indicted Trump in the classified document case, Breitbart News reported.
A majority of voters said they would vote for Trump over Biden if a jury convicts the former president in the documents case, a Harvard Caps/Harris poll recently found.
