Oh, now this is getting good.
After months of White House stonewalling and DOJ double-speak, it looks like the audio of President Biden’s infamous interview with Special Counsel Robert Hur might finally see the light of day. And let’s just say—Team Biden is reportedly sweating like it’s final exam week in a freshman philosophy class.
According to Republican insiders, folks in the Trump orbit are putting together a plan to release the tapes that captured what Hur diplomatically described as Biden being a “well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.” That’s the polite version. The actual audio? That might be…less gentle.
Of course, nothing’s been finalized just yet, but there’s clearly momentum building behind the scenes. Two Republican sources say Trump’s team is seriously weighing the release. Meanwhile, Biden’s handlers are reportedly “girding” for it—which is a polite media way of saying they’re scrambling like it’s DEFCON 1 behind closed doors.
The legal ticking clock here is May 20. That’s when the Justice Department has to finally stop tap dancing around the Freedom of Information Act lawsuits filed by groups like Judicial Watch, the Heritage Foundation, and, notably, several news organizations. A federal judge is demanding that the DOJ come clean: Will they keep hiding behind Biden’s executive privilege claims, or will they finally let the public hear the President’s own voice defend his mental fitness and memory?
Let’s not forget, this whole mess started when Special Counsel Hur was investigating Biden’s own mishandling of classified documents. You know—the exact same crime Democrats have spent years accusing Trump of. But unlike Trump, who they’re always eager to indict and frogmarch in front of cameras, Biden got a pass. No charges. Just a kindly footnote that he’s an old man who can’t seem to remember when he was Vice President or, reportedly, even what year his son died. But don’t worry, folks—his “memory is fine.” He said so himself. In the transcript, anyway.

The real prize here is the audio. Because as much as the White House wants everyone to just read the sterile transcript and move on, Americans know the tone, cadence, hesitations, and stumbles in a person’s voice tell you a lot more than black-and-white text ever can. And if this recording really does sound like what insiders suggest—an elderly president struggling to complete thoughts, groping for memories, and mumbling through key answers—it’ll confirm what millions already suspect: this guy is not running the country. He’s barely running a sentence.
Biden’s team has tried everything to keep this thing buried. Executive privilege claims, privacy concerns, even the bizarre argument that releasing the tape could scare future officials from cooperating with investigations. Translation: “If people hear how bad it really was, no one will ever talk to a special counsel again.” That’s not transparency—that’s desperation.
And just to add a little more irony to this circus, the DOJ is still deciding whether to pursue other legal theories to keep the audio under wraps. What are they worried about exactly? That the American people might hear the President of the United States sounding like your uncle after a long Thanksgiving dinner and a few too many glasses of wine?
HUGE: Trump administration planning to end the Biden gang cover-up and release audio of Biden’s “interview” with special counsel Robert Hur — all as a result of a FOIA lawsuit first miniated by @JudicialWatch. Next up, @AGPamBondi should revisit decision to not prosecute… https://t.co/RXTQAR5eEJ

But here’s the real kicker: the same Democrats who clutched their pearls over every syllable of Trump’s leaked phone calls and demanded endless investigations now want you to believe it’s somehow unfair or inappropriate to release Biden’s own words, spoken to a special counsel, under scrutiny over classified documents. The hypocrisy is almost too rich to swallow.
So let’s get the popcorn ready. Because if this audio comes out, it won’t just be another gotcha moment—it’ll be a national reality check. And based on what’s at stake, the only ones who should be afraid of that recording are the people who already know what’s on it.
