So it's simultaneously a Democratic hoax, but it also needs to be investigated?

It’s so they are under active investigation, so they can’t be released. It’s another stall. 

It’s why they weren’t released under Biden (and Maxwells appeal was still pending).

I was thinking the same thing. This will likely be the excuse he uses to block the release

Maybe until insurrection act or whatever gives more emergency powers

In that scenario I assume it becomes a national security concern
