"Biden Allies Defend President's Mental Capacity Amid Speculation"

Joe Biden's campaign co-chair Mitch Landrieu defended the president's mental capacity in response to concerns raised by Special Counsel Robert Hur regarding the mishandling of classified documents and alleged memory issues. Landrieu emphasized Biden's toughness and intelligence, dismissing comparisons to former President Donald Trump's investigations. The report concluded that while Biden's storage of classified documents posed risks, he did not commit criminal wrongdoing. Biden denied having a poor memory in a national address, but concerns about his age have reignited efforts to possibly change the Democratic ticket. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas also praised Biden's focus and attention to detail based on personal experiences.
