Biden's bid to keep interview tapes sealed faces new court setback over memoir material leak
Biden's effort to keep interview tapes under wraps from his memoir experiences suffered a fresh court blow. The request was denied in a latest legal setback for former President Joe Biden.
A US court has dealt another blow to former President Joe Biden's efforts to keep tapes of his interviews with memoir ghostwriter Robert Hur under wraps, as a judge refused to block the release of audio recordings and transcripts from the sessions. The tape recordings were obtained through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request made by a non-profit group. The court's decision comes despite Biden's emergency request to keep the materials secret, sparking renewed scrutiny over his handling of sensitive information. The non-profit group is now expected to release the tapes within weeks.
