Merrick Garland is on a mission to keep a lid on any scandals that could hurt Joe Biden.

He’s trying to hide one smoking gun that could upend the election. 

And a former Attorney General blew the whistle on this cover-up by Merrick Garland.

The hidden smoking gun that could sink Biden

Biden Attorney General Merrick Garland is sitting on audio recordings that could change the 2024 election.

Last October, Garland-appointed Special Counsel Robert Hur conducted a two-day interview with President Joe Biden for his investigation into his mishandling of classified documents as both a Senator and Vice President.

During the interview, Biden couldn’t recall what years he served as Vice President or the year in which his eldest son, Beau, died of brain cancer.

Transcripts of that interview were released to the public, but the Biden Justice Department has fought tooth and nail to avoid making the audio recordings public.

Garland defied a Congressional subpoena and was held in Contempt of Congress for trying to hide the audio recordings.

Whatever is on those tapes would confirm Biden’s severe cognitive decline and do massive political damage to his re-election campaign.

Former Attorney General slams Garland’s cover-up

Former Attorney General Michael Mukasey, who served under former President George W. Bush from 2007 to 2009, ripped the Biden Attorney General for making a “flawed privilege assertion” by refusing to turn over the audio recordings of Biden’s interview with Hur.

Despite admitting that Biden was likely guilty of criminal mishandling of classified documents, Hur declined to charge the Democrat President because he believed no jury would convict the “elderly” Biden in his depleted cognitive condition.

Mukasey said the audio recordings could reveal Biden’s “mental acuity” and provide clarity on Hur’s decision not to charge him despite admitting he “willfully” retained and disclosed “classified materials” in violation of the law.

“I am a strong proponent of the President’s constitutional responsibility to assert executive privilege when necessary to protect sensitive information in the possession of the Executive Branch, including confidential information in law enforcement files, the disclosure of which could seriously compromise the Department’s ability to enforce the law,” Mukasey wrote in a court filing.

The former Attorney General noted that Garland incorrectly cited a letter he had written during a previous Special Counsel investigation into then-Vice President Dick Cheney’s Chief of Staff Scooter Libby.

“However, I believe the assertion of executive privilege made here goes well beyond the limits of any prior assertion and is not supported by the 2008 Executive Privilege Letter or other precedents relied upon by the Department,” Mukasey added.

Mukasey noted that Biden’s interview with Hur was about a President’s “private conduct,” not “frank and candid deliberations among senior presidential advisers” like the Libby case.

“I believe the public has an overwhelming interest in hearing the audio recording and that that interest in disclosure overwhelms any conceivable intrusion on the President’s privacy interests,” Mukasey stated.

The Heritage Foundation, Judicial Watch, and some media outlets have filed a lawsuit to get a copy of the Hur-Biden audio recordings.

Merrick Garland is going to fight to keep those audio recordings from ever seeing the light of day in an election year.
