An interesting development happened on Wednesday when the White House teased the possibility of releasing the interview tapes of former President Joe Biden with special counsel Robert Hur. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt declared the admission that “the American people would be quite interested to hear that tape,” which inadvertently revealed a critical truth: what Democrats hoped would be an old, forgotten story is far from over.
It’s a key piece of evidence in one of the most significant political cover-ups in modern American history, and it’s a story that still carries major implications for the country.

It’s hard to forget how Democrats kept insisting Biden was perfectly fit for office — right up until it became impossible to deny the obvious. Despite countless public appearances that made his cognitive decline clear to anyone paying attention, it was his disastrous debate performance against Donald Trump that finally pushed him out of the 2024 race. But that moment didn’t come out of nowhere.
Democrats had been staring down the uncomfortable truth for years: a man barely capable of doing the job was occupying the Oval Office. Even the Hur report, which he released in February 2024, wasn’t the first red flag, but it was a damning moment that should have forced Democrats to act. Instead, they chose to look the other way, right up until it all came crashing down.
Hur's diplomatic description of Biden as a "well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory" turned out to be the understatement of the decade. The interview transcripts revealed a man who couldn't remember basic facts about his own life, including when his son died or when Trump was first elected president.

And now the Trump administration is considering releasing the tapes. It would be easy to say that it doesn’t matter anymore, since Biden dropped out and Trump won the election, but the Democrats' continued resistance to releasing these tapes is telling. Biden's team claimed executive privilege, with White House Counsel Ed Siskel pathetically arguing that Republicans would "chop them up, distort them, and use them for partisan political purposes."
Here's the truth: The tapes can stand on their own. We know from the transcripts that during the five-hour Hur interview, Biden repeatedly confused dates and needed his legal team to rescue him from basic questions. When asked about Trump's election, Biden suggested that it happened in 2017. Even more disturbing, he couldn't accurately recall when his son passed away, stating that Beau was "deployed or is dying" in 2017 or 2018 when he died in 2015.
The transcripts were damning, but the tapes would be even more revealing.
The American people deserve to know just how long the Democratic Party knowingly propped up a man who wasn't mentally fit for office. These tapes would expose not just Biden's condition, but the entire apparatus that covered it up until the party couldn't anymore, which led to his eventual withdrawal and Kamala’s Hindenburg-esque presidential candidacy.
The collusion between the Biden-Harris White House, the Democratic Party, and the media to conceal Biden’s cognitive decline stands as one of the biggest presidential scandals in American history. Now that Trump is back in office, many of the same journalists who once parroted Biden White House talking points, dismissed videos of Biden as “cheap fakes,” and insisted that Biden was sharp as a tack behind the scenes are scrambling to rewrite the narrative and absolve themselves from responsibility.
That’s why these tapes matter. They could serve as irrefutable proof of Biden’s diminished state and the coordinated effort by the Democratic establishment and the corporate media to deceive the American people. Countless individuals close to Biden knew he was mentally unfit for the job, but they stayed silent. At this point, it’s no longer just about Biden; it’s about accountability, transparency, and making sure the American public is never deceived on this scale again.
