Republican House Speaker Kevin McCarthy has called for Congress to investigate Joe Biden following the discovery of two batches of classified documents - one of which was found at President Biden's home.

McCarthy accused Biden of hypocrisy, pointing to the Justice Department's probe of former President Donald Trump for allegedly mishandling classified files.

McCarthy also accused Democrats of trying to have different standards for their own beliefs, citing the fact that the first set of files were found in November - before the midterm elections.

McCarthy says you look at President Biden, he wasn't President.

He says Biden as Vice President held these documents in different locations right out in the open and even criticised former President Donald Trump.

Meanwhile, Biden denies keeping any classified documents out in the open, saying they were locked in his garage.

Biden's special counsel says the President is also cooperating fully with the Justice Department.
