DOJ won't prosecute AG Garland for contempt for refusal to turn over audio from Biden, Hur interview

[ThisIsMe]

Garland is right to withhold the audio They have the transcript and thousands of pages of other documents. They only want the audio, so they can leak it, splice it, and make a political commercial out of it. And DOJ policy is not to take any action that will influence, so close to an election.

Just like you all wanted Trumps taxes so you could make a spectacle out of them…

Goose…gander…

Check the transcript to see what Biden hid from you.

Transcript was edited, so it is no good

Prove it.

... becauses they committed crimes. Garland did not.

How do you know.? The DOJ says there will be no trial of garland. I say let a jury hear this and decide.

I’m amazed the audio hasn’t been “leaked” yet. If this were a trump administration, msnbc would have the tapes already.

I'm sure MSNBC has the tapes. But they won't air them. Just like they censored the hunter laptop and the ashley biden diary.

 

[ThisIsMe]

Prove it.

They said it was edited….


Thread 'The White House NOW admits it edited Hur's transcript before it was publicly released.'
The White House NOW admits it edited Hur's transcript before it was publicly released.

According to the document in that post ?

If edited, so what? That's DOJ's right. Congress has no right to oversee prosecutions.

 

[ColonelAngus]

Garland decided not to prosecute himself.

SEEMS LEGIT TO ME!

Navarro and bannon go to prison for the same crime but not garland!!! The DOJ is all about politics. America has the right to hear this audio.

DOJ won't prosecute AG Garland for contempt for refusal to turn over audio from Biden, Hur interview

The Justice Department will not prosecute U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland over contempt after House Republicans voted Wednesday to hold him in contempt.

The funniest part is the dems have already released the transcript. I'm not understanding how the transcript is OK to release but Biden is claiming executive privilege over the audio. Do the two versions not match? How can the very same things have one being OK to release but the other is covered by executive privilege?

... because that is the DOJ's job to decide if it is necessary, not yours.

... because the GOP wants to carve the audio out o f shape for campaign ads?

That's a good point. Trump should pound on that.

Probably, but that can be said about everything. If you want free speech you have to accept that.

Releasing that audio is the DOJ's field. It has nothing to do with free speech, since you have the transcripts.

That makes no sense. If we have the transcripts, why can't we have the audio?

 

[Couchpotato]

There's no legal justification to demand the tapes be turned over. They have the complete transcript.

The MAGGOTS just want to cherry pick the audio for political propaganda.

Actually there’s no legal justification to not release them. The Government doesn’t get to not release information to the public based on political implications. The tapes aren’t classified as you’ve said the transcripts have been released so what possible reason other than a political one can there be for not letting the public have access to them?

FOIA. it’s a thing.

 

[Couchpotato]

According to the article, GOP members on the committees have openly stated that they want the audio recordings to "illuminate Hur’s comments about the president’s memory and offer insights into his mental acuity."
So, given that the committees already have the transcripts from these interviews, it’s plain as day that they only want the audio recordings so they can try to use it to depict Biden as being too old to be president, while knowing full well that the presumptive Republican candidate is only 3 years younger than Biden.

That’s not a legal justification to not release the audio.

The obvious difference being a persons taxes aren’t subject to FOIA unlike this audio recording
