DOJ Giving Republicans Some Material From Special Counsel Hur Report, But No Transcript

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING WASHINGTON ― The Department of Justice on Friday told Republicans that it would hand over documents from special counsel Robert Hur’s report on President Joe Biden’s handling of classified material. But the department won’t give Republicans the transcript or audio of Hur’s interview with Biden, which was what Republicans wanted most after Hur said in his report that Biden came off as an “elderly man with a poor memory.” Given voter concerns about Biden’s age, Hur’s characterization was incredibly damaging for the 81-year-old president ― and valuable to Republicans and former President Donald Trump in his quest to regain the White House. Uriarte asked the House committees to “join us in seeking to avoid conflict when there is, in fact, cooperation.” In his report, Hur explained that the DOJ wouldn’t charge Biden for breaking the law over keeping classified material from his days as vice president, citing a host of mitigating factors, including that Biden would seem to a jury like a sympathetic, forgetful old man. Republicans demanded the transcript and other documents from Hur as part of their impeachment inquiry into Biden, saying in a February letter to the department that “there is concern that President Biden may have retained sensitive documents related to specific countries involving his family’s foreign business dealings.” Specifically, lawmakers requested two documents related to a December 2015 phone call between Biden, who was vice president at the time, and the prime minister of Ukraine.
