The Justice Department confesses to having transcripts of interviews between Joe Biden and biographer Mark Zwonitzer, despite initially insisting the documents did not exist.
The transcripts are related to Robert Hur’s investigation into Biden’s handling of classified information after stepping down as vice president.
Remarkable coincidence: DOJ “discovers” the Biden transcripts…just 48 hours after he drops out.

Hur eventually confirmed the transcripts of the conversations between Biden and Zwonitzer, which were relied upon for his final report.
Though the report concluded that Biden would not receive criminal charges for possessing classified materials after his vice presidency, it did label him a “sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.”
This controversial report sparked outrage regarding Biden’s perceived cognitive impairment.
But OOPS!
After resisting demands by Heritage to contact Hur directly as to the existence of the transcripts, DOJ tried to go to their usual source at Special Counsel office but he was unavailable. So they finally reached Hur himself who confirmed the transcripts exist: pic.twitter.com/kIgnuAwytF

As a result, Vice President Kamala Harris emerged as the presumptive nominee for the 2024 elections.
