"Biden's Memory Under Scrutiny: Special Counsel Robert Hur Testifies on Classified Documents Investigation"

Special counsel Robert Hur's report on President Joe Biden's handling of classified documents described him as an "elderly man with a poor memory," but the transcript of Biden's interview paints a more nuanced picture. Despite memory lapses, Biden also recalled detailed events from his time as vice president. The transcript also revealed moments of confusion and misalignment of specific events to the right years. Biden's lawyers criticized the report, while Biden's allies believe a full reading of the transcript will support their contention that Hur's characterization was not based in reality. Hur is set to testify before Republican-led committees on Capitol Hill, defending his investigation and the characterization of Biden's age.
