Refusal to Hand Over Biden's Testimony Recording, US Attorney General Accused of Contempt of Congress by House

Reported 7 months ago

On June 12, 2024, the US House of Representatives, controlled by the Republican Party, narrowly passed a resolution accusing Attorney General Garland of contempt of Congress for refusing to hand over the recording of President Biden's testimony in a confidential file case. The investigation, led by special prosecutor Robert Hur, concluded due to lack of evidence not to prosecute Biden. However, Republicans are seizing on Biden's alleged memory issues, while the White House claims the recordings are privileged. Democrats criticize Republicans for political motives, as the upcoming election battle between Trump and Biden is causing tension. The move may have symbolic significance but little actual effect on Garland's potential conviction. Trump faces charges too, but his case has been postponed indefinitely.
