The Spin


Narrative A

The DOJ investigation into Biden was a politically motivated distraction designed to deflect from Trump's classified documents scandal. Biden is right to sue because every American, including former vice presidents, deserves protection from having private home conversations weaponized by partisan committees. Handing over these recordings is a political hit job.

Narrative B

Suing to keep this audio hidden destroys what little remains in Biden and makes one wonder what he has to hide. His own party forced him off the 2024 ticket after years of insisting he was mentally sharp. This audio could reveal the full truth, and the public has every right to understand how the decision not to prosecute him was reached.
