White House press secretary Jen Psaki confirmed that President Joe Biden has waived executive privilege on documents related to the Jan. 6 select committee.

“The president has determined an assertion of executive privilege isn’t warranted for the first set of documents from the Trump White House that have been provided to us by the National Archives,” she said on Oct. 8, adding that more sets of documents could be evaluated on a “case-by-case basis.”
