DOJ under pressure to produce audio of Biden interview with Hur

The Department of Justice is facing mounting pressure from Congress and various organizations to provide audio recordings of President Joe Biden’s interview with the special counsel who investigated his handling of classified documents.

The DOJ has thus far resisted the requests from House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH), House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY), conservative groups such as Judicial Watch, and CNN, resulting in escalating legal pursuits, a tense impasse with Congress, and healthy doses of criticism.

“This is yet another brazen cover-up,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said in a statement Tuesday. “The Biden Justice Department’s political gambit in asserting Joe Biden’s privacy concerns in order to withhold audio of his criminal interviews with the special counsel really takes the cake.”

Judicial Watch, as well as the Heritage Foundation and CNN, have filed legal complaints in an attempt to enforce Freedom of Information Act requests for the recordings, which feature Biden interviewing with former special counsel Robert Hur about how the president handled classified material from when he was vice president and senator.

Fed holds interest rates steady as 2024 cut gets more elusive

The Federal Reserve held interest rates steady Wednesday following several months of higher-than-expected inflation, with investors now not expecting a rate cut until months from now.

After a two-day meeting of its Federal Open Market Committee in Washington, D.C., the Fed announced that it will keep its rate target at 5.25% to 5.50%. The move was widely telegraphed.

Because of inflation proving sticky in the first part of the year, the timing for when the Fed might first cut interest rates has been consistently pushed back in recent weeks.

One major addition to the Fed’s policy statement is an acknowledgment that inflation has not been making progress toward the Fed’s goal as of late. The inclusion marks a more hawkish tone and could indicate that rate cuts are even further off.

“In recent months, there has been a lack of further progress toward the Committee’s 2 percent inflation objective,” the statement reads. Officials added that the Fed would begin slowing the shrinking of its balance sheet beginning in June.
