One of the many locations where Joe Biden’s carelessly stored classified documents.
In February Chairmen James Comer from the House Oversight Committee and Jim Jordan from the Judiciary Committee subpoenaed the Justice Department for Special Counsel Robert Hur’s Biden interview records as damaging leaks revealed at the time that Biden lied about his interview with Special Counsel Robert Hur. Comer and Jordan were seeking Biden transcripts, notes, video and audio files of Robert Hur’s 5-hour interview over two days.

Robert Hur was tasked as Special Counsel in investigating Joe Biden’s stolen classified documents case. Joe Biden, who did not hold presidential immunity to hold classified documents like President Trump did, held classified documents in numerous unprotected locations.
Joe Biden STOLE SCIF-designated classified documents and improperly stored them at the Penn Biden Center, his Delaware garage, his Virginia home, and his lawyer’s Boston office.
Hur found that Joe Biden “willfully retained” classified information, however, he decided not to charge him. Hur said there is evidence Biden retained classified notebooks, “knowing he was not allowed to do so.”
Biden wasn’t charged.
In March 2024 Judicial Watchfiled its FOIA lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Justice in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia after the Department of Justice failed to respond to a February 2024 FOIA request for records of all Special Counsel interviews of President Biden (Judicial Watch, Inc. v. U.S. Department of Justice (No. 1:24-cv-00700)). A redacted transcript of the Biden interview was released on April 15.
In the report, Hur called Biden a “well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory” and declined to charge Biden with a “serious felony:”
Judicial Watch also sought the audio recordings of Joe Biden’s testimony before Robert Hur.
On Tuesday, Judicial Watch reported that Joe Biden’s DOJ will not release the audio recordings to their group in order to protect Joe Biden’s privacy.
And they also did not want to disclose Biden’s late stage dementia recorded by the Special Counsel during interrogation of his criminal acts.
Judicial Watch reported:
Judicial Watch announced that the Justice Department has told the court that it will not disclose the audio recordings of special counsel interviews with President Joe Biden in order to protect Biden’s “privacy” interests.
The Biden Justice Department informed Judicial Watch and the court that it would assert Exemptions 6 and 7(C) under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) to prevent the release of the two audio recordings of Biden’s interviews with Special Counsel Robert Hur. Exemption 6 applies to “personnel and medical files and similar files” when disclosure of such information “would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy.” Exemption 7 (C) applies to “records or information compiled for law enforcement purposes,” the disclosure of which “could reasonably be expected to constitute an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy.”
On March 11, 2024, Judicial Watch filed its FOIA lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Justice in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia after the Department of Justice failed to respond to a February 2024 FOIA request for records of all Special Counsel interviews of President Biden (Judicial Watch, Inc. v. U.S. Department of Justice (No. 1:24-cv-00700)). A redacted transcript of the Biden interview was released on April 15.
