Attorney General Garland appoints special counsel in Biden documents investigation

Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed a special counsel to investigate the classified documents that were found at President Biden’s home and former private office from his time as vice president. A source tells CNN that the White House’s misleading statements created the impression that Biden’s team had something to hide and reinforced the need for a special counsel. Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe joins AC360 to discuss how closely the FBI works with a special counsel. Plus, CNN Chief Congressional Correspondent Manu Raju tracked Republican Rep. George Santos down to try and get him some answers about the lies he’s told about his education, his career, his religion and past work experience. He tells Anderson Cooper how Santos responded to his questions. To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.
