Default Joseph Biden Q&A

Joseph Biden Q&A

Quote:
6. Does executive privilege cover testimony or documents about decision-making within the executive branch not involving confidential advice communicated to the president himself?

No. The Executive Privilege only covers communications between the President and his advisors. Even when the privilege does apply, it is not absolute; it may be outweighed by the public’s interest in the fair administration of justice.
For the record, in case you don't know, Eric Holder is an Attorney General...NOT an advisor...

I saw a funny video on how many times Republicans had claimed an event was Obama's watergate. I think it's up to four now.
