“What are you talking about?” Hunter Biden reacts harshly to question about Biden investigation of classified documents | Today’s news
Hunter Biden was briefly questioned by reporters in West Los Angeles this week regarding ongoing legal battles involving former President Joe Biden and the recently released government UFO files, according to Fox News.
The former first son was approached by paparazzi near Wilshire Boulevard, where he answered questions about the lawsuits linked to audio recordings linked to the Joe Biden classified documents investigation.
Reporter asks about tapes of interviews with Biden
According to The New York Post, a reporter asked Hunter Biden about the Justice Department’s efforts to release tapes of interviews with his father and interviews related to the biography project.
“Hunter, what do you think of the DOJ releasing the tapes of the interviews with your father from the biography he did?” the reporter asked.
“What are you talking about?” Hunter Biden reportedly responded.
The exchange comes amid ongoing legal efforts to release audio recordings connected to the classified documents investigation involving Joe Biden.
Audio recordings tied to classified probe documents
The controversy centers on tapes of interviews conducted during special counsel Robert Hur’s investigation into Joe Biden’s handling of classified material.
The probe examined Biden’s discussions of sensitive documents during interviews with ghostwriter Mark Zwonitzer.
According to The Post, Hur’s investigation said Zwonitzer deleted certain files, though the Justice Department later recovered the material.
The conservative legal group Oversight Project subsequently sued the Justice Department, demanding the public release of audio recordings of Joe Biden’s conversations with Hur.
Joe Biden has denied wrongdoing and previously said he was cooperating fully with investigators.
“I don’t know, man — I didn’t hear that,” Hunter Biden reportedly said during the exchange.
Hunter Biden briefly comments on UFO files
The reporter also asked Hunter Biden about the recently released government UFO files.
“It’s crazy, isn’t it?” Hunter Biden responded, according to The Post, though he did not elaborate on the topic.
The UFO footage has been released following declassification ordered by President Donald Trump and has reignited the debate over unidentified anomalous phenomena and alleged government secrecy.
Hunter Biden has remained largely out of the public eye in recent months, making the Los Angeles sighting one of his few public appearances this year.
