Some have dismissed Axios' release of Biden's interview audio as a political "distraction" from controversies surrounding Trump's presidency.

Former President Joe Biden joked that he was a "young man" during his October 2023 interview with Special Counsel Robert Hur over his mishandling of classified documents.

The Trump administration plans as soon as Saturday to release the audio of former President Joe Biden’s interview with special counsel Robert Hur, who raised questions about his mental acuity while investigating his handling of classified documents, according to three people familiar with discussions surrounding the audio’s release.
