Biden Secures Three-Week Stay on Hur Interview Tapes Release
A federal judge granted a three-week injunction to pause the release of audio recordings and transcripts from Biden’s interviews tied to Special Counsel Hur’s classified‑documents probe, pending an appeal. The stay blocks the DOJ from releasing the materials while the D.C. Circuit reviews Biden’s challenge, after he sought emergency relief claiming public disclosure would end the case and violate privacy protections. The recordings, connected to ghostwriter Mark Zwonitzer and cited in Hur’s report, fueled scrutiny of Biden’s memory and the decision not to prosecute, amid long-running FOIA efforts by the Heritage Foundation to obtain them.
