Transcripts contradicting President Joe Biden's claim that the special counsel raised his son's death wasn't the most damning part of Robert Hur's testimony.
concluding that Biden should not be prosecuted for illegally handling classified documents because a jury would find him to be “a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory,” Biden hastily assembled the White House press corps for prepared remarks in which he said:
“I know there’s some attention paid to some language in the report about my recollection of events. There’s even a reference that I don’t remember when my son died. How in the hell dare he raise that. Frankly, when I was asked the question, I thought to myself it wasn’t any of their damn business.” The problem is, on Tuesday, the Justice Department released the transcript of Hur’s interview with Biden, and it clearly shows that not only did Biden forget when his son died, as Hur claimed, but that it was Biden, not Hur, who raised the issue.
In actuality, Beau Biden’s deployment to Iraq ended in 2009, and he died in 2015, a full two years before the time frame Hur asked about. So not only did Hur not raise Beau, it was Biden who raised Beau and in an attempt to explain falsely why he illegally possessed classified documents. But the release of the transcript showing Biden lied wasn’t even the worst part of Hur’s testimony. That came later under questioning from Rep. Kelly Armstrong .This back-and-forth between Armstrong and Hur is damning. It only lasts 20 seconds. It clearly shows Biden either intentionally mishandled classified documents or is too old to be held accountable for his actions. Neither conclusion is good. I would expect it to be featured in television ads this fall.
