A federal judge on Thursday granted Joe Biden’s request to block the public release of the audiotapes of his conversations with his ghostwriter.
The Oversight Project filed a FOIA lawsuit requesting records from Special Counsel Robert Hur’s investigation into Biden. The judge denied the Oversight Project’s request.
However, US District Judge Dabney Friedrich, a Trump appointee, denied Biden’s request to use this case to block the release of the audiotapes to the House Judiciary Committee.
Earlier this month, it wasreportedthat the DOJ was preparing to release damning audio of Biden’s interview with former Special Counsel Robert Hur. The Department is also going to release 2017 audio recordings of conversations with his ghostwriter in which he disclosed classified information.
Biden previously asserted executive privilege over the audio recordings related to then-Special Counsel Robert Hur’s investigation into his stolenclassifieddocuments scandal.
Republicans have argued that Joe Biden cannot assert executive privilege over the audio since the transcript has already been released.
Then-US Attorney General Merrick Garland classified the audio tapes of Biden’s interview with Hur as “Top Secret” and locked it way in a SCIF.
The Oversight Project vowed to obtain and release Biden’s audio recordings of his conversation with his ghostwriter Mark Zwonitzer.
