Before the moment slips away, it’s important to highlight one of the most significant, hidden aspects of Tuesday’s House Judiciary Committee hearing featuring testimony from former special counsel Robert Hur, who investigated President Biden’s willful illegal retention of classified documents: The Biden Justice Department withheld production of the transcript of President Biden’s five-hour interview by Hur until just before the hearing was scheduled to begin.

Now that we’ve seen the transcript, the reasons for the gamesmanship are obvious — as Dan McLaughlin’s excellent post from Tuesday illustrates.
