Biden Rejects Trump’s Claim of Privilege for White House Visitor Logs
"Biden informed the National Archives that it should turn over the logs sought by the Jan. 6 committee within 15 days.President Biden ordered the National Archives to hand over a range of visitor logs from the Trump White House to the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, rejecting his predecessor’s claim that the material is protected by executive privilege.
The decision boosts the committee’s efforts to gather information about who was coming and going from the White House not just on the day of the attack last year but also in the months preceding it as President Donald J. Trump sought to overturn the election." [NYTimes]
Biden spends nearly every weekend away from the White House and travels to either Camp David or his Delaware residence and refuses to release his visitor logs.
