On Tuesday, Special Counsel Robert Hur testified before the House Judiciary Committee that Joe Biden's ghostwriter, Mike Zwonitzer, tried to destroy audio recordings of his interview with the president.

Hur revealed that after news broke that he had been selected to oversee the investigation into Biden's handling of classified documents, Zwonitzer scrambled to delete the audio files from his computer.



"Joe Biden 'risked serious damage to America's national security' when he shared information with his ghostwriter," Chairman Jim Jordan said, asking, "What did the ghostwriter do with the information Joe Biden shared with him on his laptop ... after you were named special counsel."

"If you are referring to the audio recordings that Mr. Zwonitzer created of his conversations with Biden, he slid, if I remember correctly, he slid those files into his recycle bin on his computer."

"Tried to destroy the evidence, didn't he?" Jordan asked, to which Hur replied, "Correct."

Hur also testified that the Biden administration itself had tried to change the report.



When asked whether the White House "tried to weigh in with your investigation on elements of that report and get the report changed," Hur said that officials did, in fact, "request certain edits and changes to the draft report."
