Judge blocks DOJ from releasing Biden's conversations with biographer for 3 weeks

TL;DR

A federal judge issued a temporary block on the Justice Department's release of Joe Biden's recorded conversations with his biographer.
The block is in place for three weeks, allowing a federal appeals court to review the case.
The Heritage Foundation had requested the transcripts and recordings, which were used in special counsel Robert Hur's report.
Hur's report cited Biden's "diminished faculties and faulty memory" as evidenced in the recordings.
The judge acknowledged a "diminished privacy interest" due to redactions but cited a "strong public interest" in the release.
Biden's lawyers argued that the disclosure of private conversations could not be undone and would cause permanent damage.
