"White House and DOJ Clash Over Special Counsel Report Handling"

The White House clashed with the Department of Justice over a special counsel report that included critical language about President Joe Biden's age and memory, with the president's attorneys claiming the report violated DOJ policy. Despite the report's damning characterizations of Biden's mental acuity, it concluded that no criminal charges were warranted, leading to criticism from the president's critics and a public perception that he is too old to serve another term.

President Biden angrily fired back, accusing the report's authors of making "extraneous commentary" about his age and mental capacity, highlighting the potential political damage despite the lack of criminal charges.
