TL;DR Summary
Former Attorney General Eric Holder criticized Special Counsel Robert Hur's report on President Joe Biden's memory, stating that it contained gratuitous remarks and was inconsistent with DOJ traditions.

Holder and others viewed the report as a right-wing hit job from within Biden's own DOJ, with Hur being described as a lifelong Republican aiming to politically harm Biden.
