While all eyes were focused on a Manhattan courthouse for Donald Trump’s trial, a curious thing happened in Washington. President Joe Biden invoked executive privilege in defiance of Congress.

It is not the invocation that is particularly unusual. What is curious is that Biden is withholding the audiotape of his own interrogation by Special Counsel Robert Hur, even though the transcript has been released as unprivileged.

It appears that Joe Biden is “he who must not be heard.”

We are not allowed to know that JoeB was under criminal investigation for knowingly, willingly, and repeatedly stealing classified documents since he became a Senator.

My guess is that the transcript doesn’t match the audio and the DOJ doesn’t want to get caught cleaning after Biden.

Simplest explanation…

That would explain it, but so would the effort to keep out of the news an embarrassing doofus recording with imprecise sounds that might possibly match the transcript.
