Biden Blocks Release of Memoir Chats

Former President Joe Biden is suing the Department of Justice to block the release of private audio recordings and transcripts from his 2016-2017 chats with his biographer, which are set to be handed over to the House Judiciary Committee and the Heritage Foundation on June 15th. These recordings, tied to Robert Hur’s 2023 classified documents investigation, were initially withheld by the DOJ on public disclosure grounds but later released in response to the committee’s request — a move Biden’s legal team argues is a loophole to bypass transparency rules. The lawsuit seeks a court order to halt the release entirely, especially since the recordings stem from Biden’s memoir work during his son Beau’s battle with cancer.
