The Department of Justice (DOJ) released 117 pages of transcribed interviews between President Biden and his ghostwriter as the result of a lawsuit over the department withholding documents from Special Counsel Robert Hur's investigation into Biden's handling of classified documents.
In his final investigative report released in February, Hur described Biden as an "elderly man with poor memory."
The Oversight Project, a conservative watchdog group, had sued the DOJ to obtain the documents.
The House Judiciary Committee also sought recordings and documents related to the interviews from the ghostwriter, Mark Zwonitzer, who the committee had subpoenaed.
