Hello everyone, today we delve into an ongoing legal saga. The key players in this story are the House Judiciary Committee and Attorney General Merrick Garland. The committee, primarily led by Republicans, has taken legal action against Garland. The goal? They’re pushing for a judge to release the audio of an interview between President Joe Biden and Special Counsel Robert Hur.

The interview in question took place at the beginning of the year, and the recordings of the discussion remained confidential due to the Biden administration invoking executive privilege. The focus of this interview was President Biden’s handling of classified documents. The filed lawsuit argues that the use of executive privilege in this scenario is “frivolous.” This is because the committee believes the audio of the interviews could shed light on the Justice Department’s investigation into Biden’s document handling.

To provide a direct quote from the lawsuit, “The Committee thus needs those recordings to assess the Special Counsel’s characterization of the President, which he and White House lawyers have forcefully disputed, and ultimate recommendation that President Biden should not be prosecuted”.

Adding an interesting twist to the story, despite Hur’s conclusion – that Biden had kept classified documents unlawfully after leaving office – he did not recommend any charges. According to Hur’s report, Biden had trouble recalling important dates, which could influence how a jury perceives him.

We also know that the released transcript was “cleaned up” a bit by the White House to make Joe sound better.

White House Caught FAKING Biden’s Competence, Court Admission Reveals

The White House has admitted in federal court that it ALTERED the transcript of Joe Biden’s testimony with Special Counsel Hur, artificially inflating Biden’s competence.

In the report, Hur states a jury would likely perceive Biden, who is now 81 years old, as “a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.” As a result, the House Judiciary Committee has requested that the U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., dismiss Biden’s executive privilege claim and instruct Garland to release the audio recordings. The committee believes that these tapes will offer key verbal and nonverbal context not available in the written transcripts of the interview.

According to the lawsuit filed by the Judiciary Committee, “That verbal and nonverbal context is quite important here because the Special Counsel relied on the way that President Biden presented himself during their interview — ‘as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory’ — when ultimately recommending that President Biden should not be prosecuted for unlawfully retaining and disclosing classified information”.

If the GOP wins the lawsuit, it would be devastating to the Biden administration following the debate.

Or, if Jill gets tough and refuses to let Joe walk away, imagine if they get “leaked.”
