Republicans to Hold Merrick Garland in Contempt of Congress For Refusing to Hand Over Audio of Biden's Interview with Special Counsel Robert Hur
2024-05-07
[Gateway] Republicans will hold US Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt over the Justice Department’s refusal to hand over audio recordings of Joe Biden’s interview with Special Counsel Robert Hur.

"The House Judiciary Committee is aiming to hold Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress for refusing to provide audio recordings of President Joe Biden’s interview with the special counsel who investigated his handling of classified documents." — the Washington Examiner reported.

"The Republican-led committee is planning to hold a meeting to review a contempt report and hold a committee vote on the matter on May 16, according to two sources familiar with the plans." The Examiner reported.

House Oversight Chairman James Comer last month released a statement after the DOJ rebuffed his committee’s request for the audio recordings.

"The Biden Administration does not get to determine what Congress needs and does not need for its oversight of the executive branch," Comer said. "The American people deserve to hear the actual audio of President Biden’s answers to Special Counsel Hur."

Comer said it is "curious" that the Biden Regime is refusing to release audio of Biden’s interview with Hur after releasing the transcript.

What we do know is that Joe Biden lied about Robert Hur raising the issue about his dead son Beau.

The Justice Department previously defended not bringing charges against Biden because he’s a "sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory."

#5  Ironically, we owe both Trump and Obama for Swillary never being prexident. Also ironic is we owe the hated Cocaine Mitch for Garland not being on SCROTUS.

As has been commented previously.
They need more time to catch Biden on a Good Day to re-record the conversation.
