House Oversight and Accountability Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) compared President Biden to former President Nixon over his handling of the special counsel tapes.
Last week, the president invoked executive privilege to block House Republicans from obtaining audio recordings of his interviews with special counsel Robert Hur about his handling of classified documents, after the files had been subpoenaed by the House Judiciary and Oversight committees.
Comer, in an interview with Newsmax on Tuesday, compared the move to Nixon’s refusal to release the tapes of recorded White House conversations relating to the cover-up of the break-in at the Watergate Hotel in the early 1970s.
“No difference in Joe Biden trying to hide these audio tapes and Richard Nixon trying to hide his audio tapes during the Watergate investigation. This should be something that should be readily available in a simple FOIA request,” Comer said.

The transcripts were already released, so there is no "Executive Privilege" to claim.
Either the tapes make Biden sound much worse than the transcripts read, or else the transcripts were edited to remove the most embarrassing parts, which would be instantly discovered if the tapes were released.
My bet is on the transcripts being doctored.
Did Nixon send his goons over to Humphrey’s house to assasinate him?
Bad comparison Gomer. Biden is on his own. Nixon was never a murderer. Biden wanted to murder Trump. If Trump wins the trifecta here in my opinion, he will be the greatest American that ever lived. No one‘s taking more crap than Donald Trump has any he still keeps on ticking The guy is a rock star.
Why don’t you learn what a rhetorical question is? The comparison was that Nixon did nothing compared to Biden sending his thugs to murder Trump.
Stay off the internet dipshit.
Comer is just as much an idiot as you. Biden is so much worse than Nixon and to compare the two is disgusting. I don’t even like Nixon but this is an awful comparison.
My remarks were that Biden is far worse than Nixon. Hey big guy switch to decaf.
You can’t read. Thinking you are clever by calling someone Gomer. You don’t even know where that comes from Goober.
If you would like to have a fight with me, I’ll give you my address we can get together please. And switch the decaf before you have a fuc#ing stroke.
:NeverTrumpin':
Homo
You’re such a cliché.
And you’re a homo and a dummy.
The way you’re coming at me .I’m getting the vibe that you voted for Biden!
Good one retard.
someone has to say it. Nothing will be done.
👉 🌟💯🌟👍
Biden is more like a really nasty version of LBJ
