Top House Republicans are calling on the White House to release all documents and internal communications related to President Joe Biden's recent statement that appeared to criticize supporters of Donald Trump. The controversy arose when White House press officials altered the official transcript of Biden's remarks, prompting objections from federal workers responsible for documenting such statements.
