House Republicans have requested transcripts and tapes of President Joe Biden’s interview with Special Counsel Robert Hur’s office after a report found the president had “willfully” retained classified documents.

In a Feb. 12 letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland, the chairmen of GOP House Committees asked for a “transcript and any other records of this interview, including, but not limited to, any recordings, notes, or summaries of the interview.”
