House Republicans have subpoenaed the Justice Department for recordings and transcripts of Special Counsel Hur's interview with President Joe Biden in which he described him as an 'elderly man' with 'diminished faculties.'
The three GOP committee chairs leading the Joe Biden impeachment inquiry into whether he was involved in his family's shady businesses made good on their threats to subpoena the material if they did not get it by February 19.
Now that the deadline passed, the Republicans are taking more aggressive action on the eve of their impeachment deposition with star witness Hunter Biden.
They say they are 'concerned' that Biden may have retained sensitive documents 'related to specific countries involving his family’s foreign business dealings.'
In particular, they wanted to know if Biden's lawyers placed 'limitations or scoping restrictions' on statements that could have 'directly' linked the president to 'troublesome foreign payments.'
Hur is expected to testify at a public hearing before the House Judiciary Committee on March 12 and answer further questions.
They are particularly requesting documents related to then-Vice President Biden’s December 2015 phone call with Ukraine's prime minister.
They say that the phone call occurred around the same time that Biden 'called for the firing of the Ukrainian prosecutor who was investigating Burisma,' the board of which Hunter sat on.
Hur's report, summarizing his probe of Biden's mishandling of classified documents, contains a multitude of examples of Biden's 'hazy' memory, including one point where Biden appeared to forget when his son Beau died.

don’t hold your breath
They’ll most likely get that RAT middle finger salute....just like the one that Humper Biden gave em.
And they won’t do a thing about it.....just like they didn’t do anything about the Humper’s humiliation visit....LOL
Congress needs to pass a law that documents submitted to Congress CAN NOT BE REDACTED. If some sort of confidentiality is needed, have the documents reviewed in a restricted setting.
I suspect they will have been accidentally destroyed by some unknown but yet innocent person. Mistakes were made but no one is at fault.
“Sorry, they were all lost in a fire. Or a glitch. Or Hillary scrubbed them like with a cloth. Or they are buried in Joe’s garage mess and it will take us years to find them.”
They won’t release it for one of two reason:
Either it’s incriminating
OR
It’s utter, total, indecipherable nonsense.
Or both.
Of course, some brave soul will come forward to "take full responsibility" while denying fault and knowing there will be no consequences.
Time for the FBI, CIA and DOJ to circle the wagons around Biden.
They are SO DAMN SLOW FOOTED AND SLOW WITTED!!! THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN DONE THE DAY AFTER THE HUR REPORT CAME OUT!! DUMBASSES!
Garland: Darn it. Everything is missing. Big apologies.
We are embarrassed.
