President Joe Biden will not uphold former President Donald Trump’s “assertion of privilege” over documents sought by the House select committee investigating the January 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol.

In a letter obtained by CNN, White House counsel Dana Remus told National Archivist David Ferriero that Biden would not assert executive privilege over the documents.

“President Biden has considered the former President’s assertion, and I have engaged in consultations with the Office of Legal Counsel at the Department of Justice,” Remus wrote.

These socialists are pretty damn cocky they're going to own Congress and the WH forever.

Pretty sure that's not Captain Dementia and his team of Incompetents call. Also they may be really sorry about their opinion when the Presidency and Congress flip, of course that would require the election of Republicans with cojones and they seem to be few and far apart

This is not a decision the Executive Branch can make.
Not the president nor anyone else there.

Take it to the federal courts...

At the rate things are going, I have little doubt.

Again, the only way that the GOP is going to flip any seats in Congress is if changes are made to ensure that another election isn't stolen.  Ronna who is head of the RNC is right on top of that!
