Lawyers for former Vice President Mike Pence said a "small number" of classified documents were found at his home in Indiana last week.
Pence's lawyers notified the National Archives and Records Administration of the discovery on Wednesday, according to a letter obtained by CNBC. The classified documents were first discovered on Jan. 16 after Pence had outside counsel "with experience in handling classified documents" search his own home and records "out of an abundance of caution" following the news that classified documents were found at President Joe Biden's home and office.
Gregory Jacob, an attorney at O'Melveny tasked with handling Pence's records, said the Justice Department sent FBI agents to Pence's home

Nothing big. Just documents on the alternative slate of electors submitted by three swing states in the 2020 election. Nothing to hide here, just move on.

Were these items in a secure place?
(Psst. A 'locked' garage is not always locked as per the photos of the open garage and the piles of boxes in the garage.)

I demand a search of every former President, Vice President and current and former Senator's homes.

Let’s have a look inside Adam Schiff’s place, and Kinzinger, the Cheneys, Romney, Swallwell, Pelosi, Schumer. They’ve got probable cause to search them ALL.

I can't say I would mind seeing Benedict Arnold Pence and Senile Joe bidet sharing a cell together in prison. They were VP's and had no rights in any way to have classified documents in their homes!!! Period!!!
Of course, Ovomit could save bidet's derriere by saying he declassified those documents. But after stabbing President Trump in the back and not doing his job, Pence had better get used to stripped jumpsuits!!!

Meritless is personally getting a subpeana and will personally lead his Stazi's full military assault raid on Pence. Nothing like a Rebublican caught 'breaking' the law.

Wasn’t Saint Mike severely critical of PDJT after the Mar-a-Lago raid? Seriously self-righteous...

I wonder if I have "classified" documents somewhere. I'll ask the Mrs. if she has a top-security clearance. Hope she doesn't find anything in the proximity of the lawnmower.

Pence will probably tell the DOJ that Trump ordered him to take them. I would love to know what Hillary is thinking about right now. Nah, they would never touch the Democrats’ anointed one, right?

Pence is such a Deep State turncoat, I wouldn’t be surprised if he didn’t do this on purpose to take the heat off Biden.

OK, this is obviously another Deep State distraction from some devious BS to fool the public. Gotta be cover for the Biden crime family who’ve been getting rich by selling secrets to our enemies. Is this the best they can do with their time? Is this really the most important thing going on out there? What a load of nonsense.

The good news is that Pence has not had relatives on the Chinese payroll or anonymous customers lining up to pay extravagant sums for alleged “art.”

Who packs up these documents when these politicians leave office? Who unpacks these documents and puts them in another place? Home, personal office, library? How about "If you are packing documents and they are labeled TOP SECRET or CLASSIFIED do not put them in box A. Put them in box B and hand them off to a designated person for such problems. It doesn't seem that complicated. Unless there is something nefarious going on.

FBI agents are only sent to Republican homes. Dementia Joe gets to have his own lawyers dictate search rules, be there to supervise the search? How can this happen in America? Two word answer: Merick Garland.

I find it interesting that the National Archives knew exactly what classified documents were missing and to look for with Donald Trump, yet Biden and now Pence, both had classified documents and everyone is clueless as to what they were. Why not?

It's a deflection ploy:

If this is such an egregious sin then WHY do the Archive people let ANYTHING from the WH leave? Rule should be take what you came in with. This was never an issue before and ALL pres did this. O took 30,000 docs and H DELETED 33,000 and no one cared til they wanted to GET Trump. The dems just wanted to get Trump and now they all have to LOOK as if they are FAIR.
The people to imprison are the Archive people. THEIR job is to know where ALL docs are.

DC seems to be a town built on knowing something about the other person, and how that information can be leveraged to your personal benefit.
Thus, it would be wise to have documents (remember the missing documents for roughly 100 FBI agents during the Clinton administration?) on people so you can get them to do things you want/need them to do for you is part of the "game".
Is this something they're taught in the formerly prestigious halls of the Ivy League?

Re: some responses. The gov't didn't go to Pence's home, he had his lawyers do this at his own behest, to "make sure" he didn't have anything he shouldn't. Again, total virtue signaling. Trying to appear to always take the moral high ground. If it happens to help take some pressure off his fellow swamp creature, Biden, that's just an added bonus for Pence.

Did the box still have the FedEx shipping labels showing delivery the same day he found them?
