Below is my column in The Hill on the release of the tapes from former President Joe Biden’s interview with his biographer. The Biden team fought for years to keep the public from hearing the tapes. We now know why.
Here is the column:
For years, former President Joe Biden has fought to prevent the release of tapes acquired by former special counsel Robert Hur in his investigation. After those efforts collapsed this month, it became clear why Biden and his aides were so determined to keep the public from seeing the evidence.
In addition to showing Biden’s mental diminution even before he was elected president, the tapes show that Biden effectively confessed to the crimes Hur would later excuse on the grounds of his mental infirmity.
Biden’s interviews with his biographer, Mark Zwonitzer, conducted four years before he would be elected president, show that Biden was already having trouble remembering names and dates.
Hur was tasked with determining whether Biden had committed the same crimes that led later to charges against President Trump — retaining classified material, mishandling such material, and related crimes.
It turns out that Biden had already admitted to these alleged crimes, years before the documents were found in various offices and the garage of his home.
I wrote for years about Biden’s absurd denials after files were found in offices where he was working on his book. There was also evidence that the material had been divided, distributed, and transported between different locations.
Despite all the evidence of knowledge and use of the classified materials, Biden and his aides suggested that no one had been aware of its removal and repeated transfer. In the meantime, after the raid on Mar-a-Lago to search for classified material removed by Trump, the Justice Department granted Biden and his team every possible accommodation.
Then came the searches of his home, with the pictures of files in his garage, office, and other locations. These included clearly marked classified material.
Hur then issued his report, concluding that there was evidence of the crimes, but that he would still not charge Biden as Special Counsel Jack Smith had done with Trump. The report stated that “President Biden willfully retained and disclosed classified materials after his vice presidency when he was a private citizen.” It further stated that the clearly marked classified material was “stored in unsecure places” and posed a risk of “serious damage to America’s national security.”
For his part, Biden was defiant and, when confronted about the documents, insisted that “They’re mine,” and that other presidents had done what he did. This was the same president who condemned Trump for retaining classified information. Biden mocked Trump’s defense and asked CBS 60 Minutes how “anyone could be that irresponsible.”
We now know that Biden himself was that irresponsible, if not more so. Biden not only kept classified material longer and in even less secure locations, but he did nothing to protect the material as he attacked Trump over Mar-a-Lago.
Nevertheless, Hur declared that he would not bring a single charge because Biden “would likely present himself to a jury, as he did in our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning elderly man with a poor memory.”
The tapes show Biden struggling to give answers even before he announced his candidacy for the presidency, despite denials from key aides such as Jen Psaki and Karine Jean-Pierre. However, Hur had actual tapes showing that Biden had clear memory and knowledge of his retention of classified material. Combined with Biden’s later public statements, the combination would have been deadly at trial.
In the interview, Biden read “nearly verbatim” from notebooks containing sensitive national security and foreign policy information, according to Hur. On the tapes, Biden is heard saying, “So this was, I early on, um, in ’09 I just found all the classified stuff downstairs.” At another point, he states, “Some of this may be classified, so be careful with it.” He repeatedly mentions that some of the items in his office and home may be classified.
He even brags to his ghostwriter, in a report made on Oct. 10, 2016, that “I have extensive notes over this period of time … They didn’t know I have this.”
Once again, the Justice Department had already declared and defended in court the idea that such removal and retention of classified material did constitute a federal crime by a president, let alone a vice president. Where Trump acknowledged his retention of classified material and agreed to security measures that the FBI requested, Biden did not inform anyone of his classified materials and kept them in his garage long after the Mar-a-Lago raids. Meanwhile, in public, he expressed shock that any president would act as recklessly as Trump.
It is hard to see how any of that would present “a sympathetic, well-meaning elderly man with a poor memory.” It sounds more like a cynical, shrewd politician with poor ethics. It also sounds like it would have been a strong foundation for a prosecution.
For many, the tapes will reinforce the view of a two-tier legal system, long maintained by the Justice Department, whereby key Democratic figures including Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden were given favorable treatment while others were indicted for similar conduct.
What is truly galling for some of us is that Biden knew all of this when he went public to attack Hur for suggesting that he had knowingly retained classified material and showed diminished mental faculties— at one point forgetting when his son Beau died. Biden savaged Hur at the time for raising this issue, famously demanding, “How the hell dare he raise that?” Even that was a lie, because it was Biden who had raised Beau’s death in the interview.
After the report, Biden was still denying that he had retained classified material, even though he had discussed that classified material with his ghostwriter years earlier and had admitted as much to Hur. But before the public, Biden declared, “I’ve seen headlines since the report was released about my willful retention of documents. This assertion is not only misleading, it’s just plain wrong.”
The record is now largely complete. So is the inescapable conclusion: Biden lacked clarity on most everything but his alleged crimes. His deception and culpability were established in both the Zwonitzer and Hur interviews. Biden gave Hur a virtual confession, and Hur gave him a pass.
Jonathan Turley is a law professor and the New York Times best-selling author of “Rage and the Republic: The Unfinished Story of the American Revolution.”
Having handled both classified materials and company proprietary information, I am struck by how casual the Joe Bidens, Hillary Clintons, and many others of either party are in their handling of classified information. (No one has asked Hunter Biden or any of the Biden clan if they had read or made use of any of the material.) At least DJT had his information in a locked room in a house that was guarded by the Secret Service.
I think that the largest tragedy in this affair is the actions (or rather in actions) of Attorney General Merrick Garland. These two, near simultaneous, cases (an ex-president with classified information and a sitting president who collected classified information before he became president) should have been handled as similarly as possible so that the public could witness equal justice. Instead AG Garland appointed prosecutors with wildly divergent views on acceptable methods of recovering the classified information, wildly divergent views about the evidentiary thresholds for prosecution, and wildly divergent views on prosecutorial methods in general. (If I am to prosecuted, please have it by Robert Hur.) I am stunned that any AG, after having seen on public display quite unequal prosecutorial methods in action resulting in quite different treatments of the accused, would not have managed his prosecutors to establish a reasonable level of commonality in the approach to prosecution.
We like to think that justice is not the luck of the draw. But AG Garland, through his actions and in-actions, vividly demonstrated that justice, in this case, was at best the luck of the draw or at worst politics thinly cloaked in the form of “justice”. This was and is, in my opinion, extremely damaging to the respect for the DoJ and the rule of law. If will take years to get past this perception.
Then again, Merrick Garland is in a class by himself when it comes to corrupt AGs.
Thanks for this. Trump has the talent for bringing out the worst in everyone, and the public benefits from a clearer perception of our leaders and their multiple delinquencies. I would like to have honest leaders, but I do not want to return to an era where leaders (and their media sycophants) were successful in building trust. With trust, what need is there for juries, a bicameral legislature, a system of independent courts, free speech and freedom of religion? While our European cousins are subject to systems built upon trust in authority, we Americans were given these things because leaders are not to be trusted.
Trump has a talent for exposing people for who they really are. Patriots for example. The insincere left too. The deep state actors. the communists. The globalists. The dictators. I do not think we would be hearing from the DSA commies so soon if not for the left’s desperation and failures to counter Trump. They have tried every trick in their red book and he’s still there, Making America Great Again. TDS has become so easy to identify now and everyone, especially the media, have sold their reputations, lost their jobs, just to get Trump and failed spectacularly. Unhinged TDS is the best thing to happen to voters, we know where everyone stands now, no ambiguity. We know who the TDS desperate ones are to watch carefully. Trump has exposed the lefts true intentions and that’s why they are failing.
I think letting the special counsels do their work without interference is the appropriate way to handle the situation, which is what Garland did with special counsels Smith, Hur, and Weiss.
Hur made the same stupid decision that Comey made when giving HRC a pass. When both sides shield the bad actors from accountability, all sides — including the Republic — suffer the consequences. Ben Franklin’s admonition is closer to becoming a reality than we think … or choose to think.
I can’t blame Hur for being afraid to prosecute Biden. Biden himself said “No one F—S with the Bidens”
Biden Crime Family.
Maybe other presidents supposedly took classified records/documents but at the time Joe Biden had not been president yet. “for me, but not for thee”
Why don’t we draw the obvious conclusion when the evidence is that both sides are corrupt?: We are a failed democracy and the status quo is unacceptable. Instead the leaders of both sides just point fingers and ignore the wrongdoing of their side. Because they ARE the status quo. And now artificial intelligence will accelerate our collapse. How many people must starve for the ego of a small group of corrupt players? Epstein paints the whole ruling class.
The only good news is that the Republican rank and file are waking up that Trump is just as bad as Biden, just in a different way. They do actually have some standards beyond robbing the country. The democrats are in love with their false virtue and may never wake up as a whole.
OT, I’m tired of politics, and I find culture and language more interesting anyway. So I’m going off topic.
The word “their” is plural. Lately it has been used to indicate a single person whose gender is unknown, which is understandable but technically incorrect. But my dudes, if you know the gender, it makes no sense to use it. For example, when talking about a husband or wife in the abstract, it is “he” or “she” since we know the gender. But still people use “their” maybe because we’re not talking about a specific person. But that’s ridiculous.
Even more ridiculous: when talking about a specific person whose gender is known. Here’s what police Chief Matthew Hicks said at a press conference on Sunday, about the heroic civilian, Matthew Hicks, who shot at the In-n-Out Burger shooter, causing him to break off his spree and likely saving a few lives. Now, it’s obvious from the name Matthew and the photos and video footage that Matthew is male. Yet the police chief said:
We want to take a moment and commend the actions of the off-duty officer and this citizen and their heroic action to stop this incident. We believe their actions helped drive the suspect away from the scene, preventing further casualties.
Why? Why refer to Matthew as “they”? Matthew is a “he.” Sheesh!
Because the “they” referred to by “their” is officer + citizen Matthew.
Oh, wait, I thought Matthew was the off-duty officer. If not then . . . never mind.
Point taken. It was probably an inadvertent error?
Actually (from your italicized quote) the chief of police {whom you criticize for use of language} never used the word THEY, as you wish us to believe.
The word “their” is plural. Lately it has been used to indicate a single person whose gender is unknown, which is understandable but technically incorrect.
The singular “they” has been part of the English language since the 14th century. That is not “lately”, and it is not even technically incorrect.
A very good argument could be made that anything signed by the Biden autopen that lacks an authorization trail from “President” Biden should be null and void.
Prosecuting a Democratic politician in Washington DC is like prosecuting the Pope in the Vatican.
The bottom line is there 2 separate justice systems and 2 separate code of ethics rules.
Lower level government employees are severely punished for lesser offenses, while the top managers and political appointees are totally lawless.
Bottom Line: America needs a totally independent Department of Justice. Maybe since the DOJ was originally created to essentially perform a constitutional “judicial review” function (protecting civil rights and protecting constitutional rights), maybe DOJ should become part of the Legislative and/or Judicial Branch’s chain of command.
DOJ simply is not functional as part of the Executive Branch policing itself. We have nearly 100 years of hard evidence proving it violates rights under Executive Branch chain of command. DOJ was originally created to protect the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendment rights of African-Americans but instead tried to destroy Christian Minister Martin Luther King, Jr for advocating the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendment rights of Americans.
DOJ is broke and needs a new chain of command!
“independent” doesn’t exist in polarized America. Is the media ‘independant’?
The DOJ’s functions are executive, not legislative or judicial, so it is exercising the president’s power, and it would take a constitutional amendment to take those functions away from him.
In alarming news for Republicans heading into the midterm elections, a new poll released on Monday revealed that Donald J. Trump is less popular than explosive diarrhea.
By a margin of two to one, likely voters said that they would rather suffer two years of the acute gastrointestinal ailment than the remainder of Trump’s term.
According to polling experts, this marks the first time a president of the United States has been outperformed by a food-borne parasite.
At the White House, press secretary Karoline Leavitt dismissed the poll, declaring, “Not only is President Trump as popular as explosive diarrhea, to millions of Americans he is synonymous with it.”
You ever notice how Donald Trump and diarrhea have a lot in common? Think about it. They both show up unexpectedly, create chaos wherever they go, and leave everyone asking, “How long is this going to last?”
How does diarrhea cause chaos? Is it like total mayhem? Do people tun screaming down the street?
Perhaps but he beats the alternative of the dem candidate he defeated. She of diarrhea of the mouth.
Sounds like your physical health is deteriorating since your mental health has deteriorated near completely.
And now, for a dose of reality,

“Hur was tasked with determining whether Biden had committed the same crimes that led later to charges against President Trump — retaining classified material, mishandling such material, and related crimes.”
That statement is deceptive. I hope and trust that was not intentional on Professor Turley’s part. The actions of a former Vice President and a former POTUS in regard to classified material cannot be evaluated by the same criteriaat POTUS enjoys many privileges and much latitude in the regard that are never conferred on the VP.
100%, a President can declassify documents and is privileged to take them securely into his possession. A Vice President shares no such privilege, neither does a Secretary of State.
Here’s a novel idea, impeach Biden after the fact to the date of the crime and then void the auto pen pardons and put these corruptocrats on trial for their corruption and treason.
Dreams of wishful thinking!
Does “securely taking into possession” mean storing declassified documents in the bathroom and on the stage of a ballroom in a highly trafficked area of a social club that is available for use to the public ??
Asking for a friend.
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton stored Top Secret documents on the hard drive of the private email server she kept in a Chappaqua… bathroom, in violation of the Espionage Act.
But FBI director Comey decided she was merely “extremely careless,” and not criminally negligent. Therefore she would not be prosecuted.
And she would have escaped scot-free, had former aide Huma Abedin not (1) Kept a laptop with SOS emails on it, and (2) Been married to a man who liked to sext underaged girls.
She did get off “scot-free.”
The materials were not stored there.
Trump stored all classified documents in a secure location which was locked. Try again
yes! Now you understand Presidential Power! Also understand someone who’s NOT President who takes classified documents is BAD and is a criminal who broke a law! We should make a saturday morning cartoon to teach you and your imaginary ‘friend’.
Once a president declassifies something he can do whatever he damn well likes with it. He can publish it on the front page of a newspaper, or email it directly to the presidents of Iran and China. But Trump didn’t do any of those things.
“a President can declassify documents and is privileged to take them securely into his possession. ”
Once a document is so declassified, how can the manner of retention be of legal import (this is really by way of rebuttal to the annony below)?

I handled classified material for more than 30 years. For more than 20 years, I had to complete yearly training on how to do so in compliance with procedures. Excusing the violation of procedures for handling/storing classified material by higher officials is nothing new. OTOH, minor violations of the procedures by worker bees are ruthlessly punished. Except possibly for certain favored individuals.
Had Ms Clinton been a different person, she’d have been in Leavenworth. And likely broke after fines.
@Anonymous–Like you, I handled classified materials for 27+ years, and had the same “yearly training on how to do so in compliance with procedures.” Had I failed merely to complete the yearly training, my DOE Q clearance would have been suspended– or worse–(along with access to classified materials) until such time as I completed the annual training. And I would also have had to listen to a long and stern lecture on the importance of following those procedures. I was appalled at HRC’s casual attitude towards handling of classified materials, and even more so by Comey’s refusal to charge her with–what was it? my memory fails me here–criminal violation of [perhaps] the Espionage Act (?). And my colleagues and I all agreed that we would have wound up in Leavenworth for an extended “vacation” had we been guilty of HRC’s selfsame crime. There clearly is a two-tier criminal justice system at play here in the good ol’ USA.
I just hope that Biden has enough fleeting seconds of clarity left to be humiliated, and to realize how awful his memory will be to all reasonable people.
His lifetime of plagiarizing, grifting, cheating, selling influence and favors to foreigners, horrific parenting/grandparenting and endangering our nation by opening our borders to the scum of the world has finally caught up to him.
No library for you, Joey. Now, leave those children alone, because they hate you too.
And the Democrat Party and the MSM scum who defended him as “sharp as a tack” knew he never was all along.
They just didn’t care because of their psychotic Trump derangement.
Turley glosses over the discovery of classified documents in the Penn-Biden Center, an institution that didn’t even exist till after Joe left office.
Compare and contrast:
Trump took documents home, when it was his right to do so.
Biden took documents FROM his home, long AFTER he had any right to do so.
Yet only one man was prosecuted.
Meanwhile, Blanche has finally had to fold on Trump’s massive corruption scam… oh dear. No 1776 fund, no future immunity from IRS. So he had better start keeping the accounts clean as of today…
So in this article you choose to claim Trump is corrupt. You wearing blinders?
Because he is corrupt. Does not mean that Biden was not. It is just that you Yanks are so dumb that you elect two corrupted buffoons three times in a row…
You’re an idiot, go get your prayer rug ready.
ATS – all meaningless. One of the reasons Congress pressed hard is all of this is fully within the presidents power.
Blanche can’t “fold” even if he wants to.
I have no idea if this will come back – that is up to Trump, not Blanche and not congress.
Honestly I hope it does -0 the Victims or your show trials should be compensated.,
And Trump should be compensated for the IRS illegally releasing his tax return.
All this is theater to confirm Blanche.
Regardless, for all the nonsense from various senators it is not possible for the AG or the president to make a binding commitment to congress to not do what the president clearly has the power to do.
My guess is we will see this return in a year or so in a slightly different form.
Do not worry, in a year’s time, the orange shigibbon will have been impeached having lost both Senate and House.
It is quite simply not in the President’s power, as the judge has declared, if such power is abused by a corrupt President and a corrupt acting AG to reach a “settlement” in a case without any adversarial contest. Go back to smoking your weed, Mr Say.
The judge made that up, and it’s not within her power to do so.
If that were the case then all the corrupt so-called “settlements” and “consent decrees” between the EPA and the environmental groups, or between the DOJ and the “civil rights” hustlers, to achieve what they couldn’t get through congress, would be void.
AI: ( suppression of evidence )
Suppression of evidence is a pretrial legal proceeding used to prevent specific evidence from being presented during a trial. In the United States legal system, the term carries two distinct meanings depending on whether the act is lawful (ordered by a judge) or unlawful (committed by a prosecutor or law enforcement).
1. Lawful Suppression (The Motion to Suppress)
A defense attorney files a formal Motion to Suppress to ask a judge to exclude evidence that was obtained in violation of the defendant’s constitutional rights. If the judge grants the motion, the evidence becomes inadmissible, meaning the jury will never see or hear it.
Common constitutional grounds for a motion to suppress include:
• Fourth Amendment Violations: Unreasonable searches and seizures conducted without a valid warrant or probable cause. Under the exclusionary rule, this illegally obtained material—and any secondary evidence derived from it—is thrown out as “fruit of the poisonous tree”.
• Fifth Amendment Violations: Coerced confessions, involuntary statements, or self-incriminating statements obtained because police failed to read a suspect their Miranda rights.
• Sixth Amendment Violations: Statements obtained from a defendant after they explicitly requested an attorney, violating their right to counsel.
2. Unlawful Suppression (Prosecutorial Misconduct)
Unlawful suppression occurs when the prosecution intentionally hides, destroys, or fails to disclose evidence that could help the defense.
• The Brady Rule: Under the landmark U.S. Supreme Court case Brady v. Maryland, prosecutors are legally mandated to turn over all exculpatory evidence (evidence favorable to the defendant that negates guilt or reduces punishment).
• Consequences: Withholding this data violates the defendant’s constitutional right to due process. If a Brady violation is discovered after a trial, it can result in a overturned conviction, a ordered new trial, or a dismissed case.
Impact on a Legal Case
Successfully suppressing a core piece of evidence, like a confession or the physical weapon, severely weakens the prosecution’s case. Because the government carries the burden of proving guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, losing vital evidence often forces prosecutors to offer a heavily reduced plea bargain or dismiss the charges entirely.

Biden was an obama-totem placed to keep the clintons as marginalized as possible.
The clintons are scum, but at least they would have prevented the current Detroitization of the nation that the obama dei clown show unleashed.
Wow, there sure are a lot of crybaby finger-pointers who regularly post here. Maybe Turley ought to ban those who post anonymously. It would sure turn down the level of vitriol a notch.
Go change your diaper, Waltr
Go f*ck yourself, anony.
“Maybe Turley ought to ban those who post anonymously.”–waltrthompson.
@waltr, I am in absolute agreement with you. And even if it didn’t “turn down the level of vitriol a notch,” at least we would know to which of the many “Anony-mice” we could attribute any particular remark, noxious or otherwise.
Lest we forget the third member of that utterly corrupt family:
“Lady Macbeth’s core motivations are an intense ambition for power, a desire to elevate her social status, and a fierce drive to push her husband toward the throne.”
Still dodging the criminally unwarranted indictments re: Trump’s paddling pool, Turley? Grow a pair and condemn him, Pirro, Leavitt and Burgum. Spineless cowardice…
Spineless Moron Anon
“K” is just another way of spelling Anonymous, you stupid little troll. You have no meaningful response to the spineless cowardice that Turley shows, yes, Turley who claims to be a Democrat but can only spout MAGA delusions and avoids issues that might seem worthy of a professor of law. I pity his students.
Biden was mentally incompetent to stand trial. We have been saying Biden was mentally incompetent for years. You call that MAGA delusion. Yet, Hur confirmed it for us. And now we have the tapes to prove it. To prove that we were, once again, right. And you wrong. That is why you have no credibility.
How marvelous!
So far as I am concerned, if he was competent enough to serve as as VP and POTUS, he was (and is) competent enough to stand trial for violations that he committed during that time. There is no room for a double standard there. Maybe punishment should take his mental capacity into account, but not investigating and determining guilt. And before anyone makes the claim, I don’t see the effects of his incapacity on his ability to mount an effective defense against charges as being a slam dunk to prevent pursuit of those charges.
Upstate
If Biden was mentally unfit to stand trial for his crimes, then how could any pardon be valid? He was either competent or incompetent, there is no in between.
Absolutely
So, if Trump is not quite mentally incompetent to the same degree as Biden, then we can look forward to him standing trial in due course. Corruption surely cannot be defended under presidential immunity; even the conservative muppets on SCOTUS cannot justify that, since corrupt acts cannot be part of a proper conduct of Presidential authority.
Still wearing blinders as TDS has taken over your existence.

The unpleasant reality: None of those who vehemently denied Joe Biden’s senility will ever be held accountable for it!
* Mark Zwonitzer’s tapes are from 10/10/16 and 3/11/16.
* As of 8/24/19 [1] at the latest, FOX News senior political analyst Brit Hume claimed “kind of memory loss associated with senility” [1]. A few hours before the 2nd presidential debate on 9/29/20 he said: “I don’t think there’s any doubt Biden’s senile.” The next day “The Poynter Institute” rated Hume’s claim false. [2]
* On 10/12/22, CNN aired Jack Tapper’s (“Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, Its Cover-up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again”, Penguin Press, May 2025) talk with then President Joe Biden.
* Rep Daniel Goldman’s (D-NY) reactions on SC Robert Hur’s report, released on 2/5/24: “What everyone will soon realize is that this is a Republican special counsel who completely went out of his way to editorialize, to include material in his report that is unnecessary and irrelevant to what he was tasked with doing.” Then VP Kamala Harris (D-CA): “The way that the President’s demeanor in that report was characterized could not be more wrong on the facts and clearly politically motivated, gratuitous.” Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT): “I suspect that that comment was a gratuitous and unnecessary remark, perhaps going to the question of intent.”
