Judge lets DOJ release redacted Biden ghostwriter talks
Why it matters: The ruling could expose material tied to scrutiny of Biden's handling of records after a request from the Heritage Foundation.
A federal judge ruled Friday that the Justice Department may give the Heritage Foundation redacted versions of former President Joe Biden's conversations with his ghostwriter, Mark Zwonitzer. The judge said the material carries strong public interest, clearing the way for disclosure despite the redactions. The ABC News report did not identify the judge by name or specify when the records could be turned over. The decision centers on discussions between Biden and Zwonitzer and adds to legal and political scrutiny around records involving the former president.
