The National Archives and Records Administration has reported finding emails from three pseudonym accounts used by Joe Biden during his time as vice president.
President Joe Biden sent and received thousands of emails through pseudonym accounts during his eight year tenure as vice president under President Barack Obama.
According to an Oct. 30 federal filing in an Atlanta Court, the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) has identified 82,000 pages worth of private email exchanges across President Biden’s three pseudonym accounts, Robin Ware, Robert L. Peters, and JRB Ware.
“NARA has completed a search for potentially responsive documents and is currently processing those documents for the purpose of producing non-exempt portions of any responsive records on a monthly rolling basis,” the filing said.
Pro-liberty nonprofit the Southeastern Legal Foundation has been pressing NARA for information about President Biden’s emails since 2021, when it initially filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request. A second request was sent in June of 2022.
According to the legal advocacy group, the email accounts were used by President Biden to “forward government information and discuss government business with his son, Hunter Biden, and others.”
At the moment, there has not been any indication from NARA that any of President Biden’s emails contain classified information or other government secrets that might be sensitive in nature.
Meanwhile, Republicans in Congress are investigating allegations that President Biden was involved with his son’s business dealings, amid allegations that the Bidens accepted bribes from Burisma Holdings, a Ukrainian energy company.
President Biden has claimed that he never discussed business with his son, who conducted several foreign business deals between 2009 and 2017, while his father was vice president. Court records have revealed some of those deals were with Chinese and Ukrainian nationals.
Process to Release Emails
According to the court filing, the Southeastern Legal Foundation and NARA are discussing ways to narrow the request to speed up the release of the emails. A joint status report is expected from NARA and the Southeastern Legal Foundation by Dec. 8.
