TL;DR Summary

House Republicans Jim Jordan and James Comer threaten Attorney General Merrick Garland with contempt of Congress if he does not provide materials related to special counsel Robert Hur's investigation into President Biden's handling of classified documents by April 8. They accuse Garland of an "insufficient production" of materials and are still waiting for audio recordings of Hur's interviews with Biden and the transcript and audio recordings of interviews with Mark Zwonitzer, the ghostwriter for Biden's memoir. Hur's report found that Biden "willfully" retained classified documents but did not file charges against him, prompting opposition from Republicans and backlash from Democrats.
