The invocation of privilege over the audiotape is so transparently political and cynical that it would make Richard Nixon blush.

Yep.

There is no Executive Privilege in this instance, since it has nothing to do with anything Executive.

They've already released a transcript, but for this disturbing abuse of power by Biden, one can only imagine how false that transcript is in places.

The emperor has no clothes.

In other cases, federal and state prosecutors have argued that Trump’s statements on Jan. 6 were criminal, made in relation to private interests and not protected under executive privilege or immunity. Notably, unlike in Biden’s case, these were statements made while Trump was president and concerned matters raised during Trump’s term. Likewise, prosecutors rejected claims that Trump has any protection over his call with Georgia officials over the demand for a recount. Imagine if Trump had argued that it was privileged to hear his voice, but not to read his words in the call.
