"Biden's 5-Hour Interview with Special Counsel Hur: Insights from the Transcript"

The transcript of then-special counsel Robert Hur's five-hour interview with President Biden last October reveals a professional, polite, and occasionally humorous conversation, providing context around statements in Hur's report on Biden's handling of classified material. The interview shows Biden's struggle to recall specific details, including the year his son Beau died, and missteps in recalling dates and events. Biden also discussed his lack of involvement in packing and moving his offices, the discovery of classified documents in his homes, and his unawareness of their contents. Additionally, the interview includes Biden's lengthy digressions on various topics. Hur is scheduled to testify before the House Judiciary Committee about the investigation.
