The Justice Department on Thursday informed House Republicans that President Joe Biden has formally asserted executive privilege over the audio of his interview with special counsel Robert Hur, a move that DOJ says effectively shields Attorney General Merrick Garland from any criminal exposure as the Republican lawmakers move toward trying to hold him in contempt of Congress

I understand there is confidential/security material discussed, but that stuff can be edited out. That said, the friggin’ transcript has been released. I am not sure what he is “afraid” of being released. This seems to be something that would be tossed out of court in short order.
Would have been leaked yesterday if it was Trump.
He KNOWS how he sounded and he doesn’t for the life of him want it released 6 months before an election.
You wouldn’t hear the hopped-up-on-injections, pre-scripted speeches. You’d hear a daffy, senile, demented old man who is simply not fit for the job. You would hear, clearly, what caused the investigator to not charge him because he’s not mentally able to assist in his own defense. Executive privilege over WHAT? The fact that he can’t be trusted with a ball point pen?
Pack your crap, Joe. You’re on your way to the Trembling Acres nursing home.
How can Executive Privilege apply when the transcript has already been released?
What the heck is the demented turd roller trying to hide now?

—-
Doubtful it can
But it will go to the courts now and there will be appeals on both sides
Likely delaying any possible release until after the election
Haven’t we learned from multiple prosecutions of Trump people that executive privilege doesn’t exist anymore?
:: I understand there is confidential/security material discussed ::
Did Hur have the proper clearance for this material?
If not, Biden, by statute, \declassified\ that material and it can no longer be protected.
Marble mouth must have some juicy material they can’t have let out!!

Yesterday, a top Biden campaign spokesman said Biden has “nothing to hide.”
So what is Crooked Joe Biden trying to hide?

Watergate tapes precedent?
This tells me the transcripts were doctored or heavily massaged.
The deep state puppet didn’t do anything yesterday except for soiling his diaper and wander around aimlessly.
The king has spoken. What a monster!
He wasn’t POTUS during the events in question.
He can’t ask for executive privilege for events before he was POTUS.
It’s simple.
If there is Top Secret info, dating back to his time as VPOTUS, that was kept in his garage or his family had access to, it should be considered compromised.
The interview should be Congressionally available.
Because the recording doesn’t come close to matching the transcript. This is how they do things.
.
I believe everyone on the investigation had clearance for this stuff.
I don’t think anyone wants to hear classified information. I would think that has been scrubbed from the transcripts Just release the audio that matches the transcripts.
