Trump Rips Joe Biden’s Lawsuit to Block Release of Special Counsel Audio

Biden sued the Justice Department on Tuesday in an effort to block the release of audio recordings and transcripts of the former president’s interview with ghostwriter Mark Zwonitzer that were obtained by special counsel Robert Hur during his classified documents investigation

The legal argument being made by Biden’s legal team appears to center around a claim that these are personal documents:

Biden’s lawyers said in the lawsuit that the Justice Department plans to release the files to Congress and the conservative Heritage Foundation after previously arguing that they were exempt from disclosure under federal public records law. According to the filing, Biden’s attorneys argued that disclosure would “constitute an unwarranted invasion of President Biden’s privacy.

That said, the files were part of a government special counsel probe.
