Congress and the American people wanted to know what President Joe Biden said to Special Counsel Robert Hur, but U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland refused to release the transcript. This made House Judiciary Committee Republicans upset, leading them to hold Garland in contempt of Congress. President Biden used executive privilege to shield Garland from criminal charges over the tapes, which many believe show his cognitive decline, raising national security concerns.
It’s concerning that Garland denied the release of the tapes, claiming he gave enough information to the committee. Republicans argue that the request was legitimate and important for national security. The administration defended Biden, saying the tapes needed to be protected, and Garland was only following the law.
Some people on social media expressed frustration over the situation, questioning if Biden is fit to be president if he can’t face charges. The debate continues on whether the tapes will ever be made public. Hopefully, transparency will prevail in the end.
It is alarming to think that the President of the United States may be hiding something crucial from the American people. Transparency and accountability are essential in a functioning democracy, and all citizens have the right to know the truth about their leaders. It is disappointing to see attempts to suppress information that could be vital for national security.
