Joe Biden Under Oath to Robert Hur: Say, Have You Heard the One About the Boy Who Lost His (truncated)

By now, you've probably read, seen, or heard the reports about how bad Joe Biden's mental acuity is. It's so bad, according to the 258-page transcript of a two-day interview between the President and Special Counsel Robert Hur and his team of prosecutors, that even though their conclusion was that Biden committed multiple violations of law in the handling of classified documents, the likelihood was that a jury would see the declined state of Joe Biden's cognitive ability and not return a guilty verdict. In short, he's too far gone to understand what is going on around him, and trying to punish him for something he doesn't understand probably wouldn't work with a jury. In layman's terms, Hur and his team concluded Biden's out there where the buses don't run anymore.

Let me state for the record that I am not a lawyer. I never attended a single class in an accredited law school. I've never been the subject of an investigation by prosecutors in which I've been deposed. That said, there is one thing I, and most Americans, intrinsically know. When you're asked a question, if your answer is longer than, "Yes," "No," "I don't recall," or a one sentence direct answer, you're not doing the deposition right. Joe Biden is a lawyer. He had five lawyers sitting in on the interview with him - three from the Office of White House Counsel, and two personal attorneys. Brevity is not the path Biden chose to take.

Andrew Kerr and Joseph Simonson over at the Free Beacon have the best reporting thus far not of the House Oversight hearing yesterday with Special Counsel Hur, but of the actual transcript released Tuesday of the two-day interview Biden gave at the White House on October 8-9, 2023. In fact, Biden himself, in a hastily-arranged, angry press briefing on February 8th, the day the Hur report was released to the public, offered up this as a response to the Hur conclusion about his mental fitness to stand trial.

It was all a set-up...................

[Signalman]

Biden is too mentally impaired to stand trial...SO LET’S ELECT HIM COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF for the next four years.

Yeah, makes sense to me...

[Verginius Rufus]

Well, according to that harpy from Hawaii, Hur’s report exonerated Biden. When Hur tried to disagree, she wouldn’t let him speak.

I’m glad I still have my (truncated)...

I don't care if he lost his truncated, he's still a boy!

Dang liberals.

Interview Transcript, Congressional Testimony Shed Light on Biden’s Memory Lapses During Classified Doc Investigation
Biden failed to recall when his son died, went off on strange tangents during interviews with Special Counsel Robert Hur

Brandon was cognitively aware (which for Biden was not very high on his best days) when he committed the crimes. Because he knew what he was doing at the time of the crimes, he should be prosecuted. His current mental state can be a factor in the sentencing. It is the job of the prosecutor and the judge to instruct the jury that the defendant's current mental state is not a factor in determining his guilt or innocence for crimes committed in the past but is a factor for sentencing.

Prosecutor Hur should just say "fine, if you want to insist that you are mentally competent, then I'll go to a grand jury and get an indictment." (Or whatever the next step would be to move the process forward.)

“This poor kid is down a hundred-foot vessel, chimney, scraping the hydrogen bubbles off of the inside”

I’ve heard of people cleaning grain silos and the dust blows them up.

But I’ve never heard of someone having to scrub hydrogen bubbles. Hydrogen normally floats away on its own.

Does anyone have any idea what the President is talking about?

[Brown Deer]

lost his what?

[HollyB]

Hur specifically said “ Biden was not exonerated “ regardless of how she tried to cut him off. He said it several times.

[HollyB]

Hur decided the outcome for the jury. That’s not his job.

[Verginius Rufus]

I think the idea was to make it impossible for TV viewers to hear his statement so they would just hear her claim that Biden was exonerated.

Greg Gutfeld played with that last night. He said if you repeat a lie enough times it becomes the truth. So he said, "I'm five-seven, I'm five-seven, I'm five-seven" several times.

[Verginius Rufus]

Hur knew that a DC jury would acquit Biden however overwhelming the evidence was. All the jurors would be people who had voted for Biden.

[HollyB]

I suppose the deception works for those who only watch snippets, but I watched the whole damn annoying thing,

[TornadoAlley3]

If Trump was a Hitler threat to Democracy, they wouldn’t be ridin with Biden.
