In this Just The News article, John Solomon reports that a federal judge has cleared the way for release of recorded conversations between Joe Biden and his biographer Mark Zwonitzer, delivering a significant blow to the former president’s privacy claims.
- U.S. District Judge Dabney Friedrich ruled the public’s interest in the materials outweighs Biden’s privacy rights after reviewing redacted transcripts.
- The recordings were obtained by Special Counsel Robert Hur during his probe into Biden sharing classified information with the author in 2017.
- Hur concluded Biden improperly shared classified materials but declined to bring charges.
- The Justice Department deleted all information about Biden’s family and personal matters from the transcripts.
- Friedrich, a Trump appointee, gave Biden time to appeal, delaying release by at least three weeks.
- The materials will be released to the conservative watchdog group The Oversight Project affiliated with the Heritage Foundation.
