Biden Brought Up Son's Death, Not Special Counsel

Last week, Biden railed against the special counsel for bringing up his son's death: "How in the hell dare he raise that? When I was asked the question, I thought to myself, it wasn’t any of their damn business."

Except Hur didn't raise it — Biden did.https://t.co/NV4ktlYX9p

From NBC News:

President Joe Biden lashed out at Robert Hur last week over one particular line in the special counsel's report on his handling of classified documents: that Biden "did not remember, even within several years, when his son Beau died."

“How in the hell dare he raise that?” Biden told reporters in an impromptu White House press conference. “Frankly, when I was asked the question, I thought to myself, it wasn’t any of their damn business.”

But Hur never asked that question, according to two people familiar with Hur’s five-hour interview with the president over two days last October. It was the president, not Hur or his team, who first introduced Beau Biden’s death, they said.

Biden raised his son’s death after being asked about his workflow at a Virginia rental home from 2016 to 2018, the sources said, when a ghost writer was helping him write a memoir about losing Beau to brain cancer in 2015. Investigators had a 2017 recording showing that Biden had told the ghost writer he had found “classified stuff” in that home, the report says.

Biden began trying to recall that period by discussing what else was happening in his life, and it was at that point in the interview that he appeared confused about when Beau had died, the sources said. Biden got the date—May 30—correct, but not the year.

Biden has always been a liar, a consistent throughout his life.

Now, Biden's lying is complicated by his dementia.

His hastily called press conference last Thursday confirms that.

Of course, the Biden White House is a chaotic mess. The Big Guy is a liar with dementia.
