“Can’t make it up”: Experts say transcript shows special counsel Robert Hur “lied” about Biden
The full transcript undercuts Hur's claims that Biden could not remember his son's death and had "poor" memory.

The full transcript of President Joe Biden’s five-hour interview with special counsel Robert Hur’s investigators “paints a more nuanced portrait” of Biden’s memory than the special counsel’s report, according to The Washington Post, which noted that “Biden doesn’t come across as being as absent-minded as Hur has made him out to be.”
The transcript “could raise questions about Hur’s depiction of the 81-year-old president as having ‘significant limitations’ on his memory,” according to The Associated Press.
Hur in his report declined to charge Biden, arguing that it would be difficult to convince a jury to convict with a memory that the special counsel described as “faulty” and “poor,” noting that Biden could not recall when his son Beau died or when he served as vice president.
But Biden said exactly when his son died in the interview.
You're viewing a single thread.
Is there a law that's been broke here, even if it's just defamation or something? I'd love to see this asshole prosecuted.
there is a solid case of defamation.
He used a position of authority that's supposed to have been neutral to create a false impression out of political motivations. never mind that it wasn't his job and he's not qualified in any case to make such an assessment.
Oh boy can't wait to see this one slog its way through 32 courts over the next 19 years and end in an unsatisfactory conclusion a decade after all parties involved have already died
I'd settle for fired but this hack needs to face some consequences.
fired is just the first step. he needs to be investigated by somebody independent to see if his other decisions are also politically motivated as well as if there wasn't any sort of corruption in this particular case.
And, anyone found to behaving in a corrupt manner needs to be dealt with in the appropriate manner. (I.E, jail time.)
He already resigned and will likely go to some cushy well paid gig he may or may not have been promised.
For defamation you have to prove that he lied, and that he knew he lied. Has nothing to do with qualifications or motivation.
