Because Biden likely doesn’t come off well in it. When you get a transcript you do t get all the ums, uhs, pregnant pauses, mumbling etc you get in an audio recording. If Biden sounded sharp as a tack in the recording they would have already released it.
LOL. It’s ok for the DOJ and WH to lie to Congress and the American people so long as it’s your “team” doing it right?
A political party I don’t like will use the information against a political candidate i do like is not a legal justification for not releasing FOIAible (SP) information.
Lick away, boy.
... why do you need it when you have the transcripts? No
You have the transcript, which is what FOIA sends.
Editing is not lying. You are going to get the transcript not the audio,
The video is subject to FOIA as well. Especially since the transcript was edited.
We will see what the courts say. And editing the transcript is lying even when your team does it.
yes the consistency is that the establishment government doesn't hold itself to the same standard as regular citizens. And more to the point it really depends on the political implications which determines whether it's going to hold one individual over another accountable.
Sure what? I know you don't want the laws to be applied to everyone equally (specifically not to your team) but that's not how our system works. Nor should you want it to. Would you be cool if this type of standard were also applied to a Trump administration? So someone submits a FOIA request and they edit the information and give them what they want them to see and uses the excuse that it would hurt them politically to release the unedited version?
