Especially if I was senile and dishonest. 5/27/26 NPR:
WASHINGTON — Joe Biden sued the Justice Department on Tuesday in an effort to block the release of audio recordings and transcripts of the former president's interview with a ghostwriter that were obtained by the special counsel who investigated his handling of classified documents.
Biden's lawyers said in a lawsuit filed in Washington's federal court that the Justice Department plans to release the files to Congress and a conservative group, the Heritage Foundation, after the department had previously argued that they were exempt from disclosure under the public records law.
Biden's lawyers argued that the disclosure would "constitute an unwarranted invasion of President Biden's privacy."
"Every American, including a sitting or former Vice President, has a right to privacy in the personal conversations he has within his own home," his attorneys wrote. "And when the U.S. Department of Justice obtains that private information through a criminal investigation, the Department bears a particular responsibility to protect it from disclosure."
Trump was prosecuted (and his wife's lingerie drawer was searched) as part of an investigation into failure to properly handle classified documents. I would think Biden deserves the same attention.
