Robert Hur clearly decided to go down the Jim Comey path of filling his report absolving Biden of criminal activity with ad hominem attacks, like calling him an "elderly man with poor memory." Not remotely subtle. Just a right-wing hit job from within Biden's own DOJ. Wild.

Biden: As many of you know, this was an exhaustive investigation. Going back literally more than 40 years. I went forward with a five hour in-person interview on October 8 and 9 last year. I was in the middle of handling an international crisis. pic.twitter.com/fDdCHrkMTQ

Biden: As a special counsel wrote several material distinctions between Mr. Trump's case and Mr. Biden's are clear… Trump not only refused to return documents, he also obstructed justice by enlisting others to destroy evidence… pic.twitter.com/N1F4BjcNqw

Republicans gonna be Republicans.Biden: Bottom line is the special counsel in my case decided against moving forward with any charges. This matter is now closed. I’ll continue to do what I’ve always done, stay focused on my job pic.twitter.com/GuWY7dNUlI

The commentary about Biden's memory was legally irrelevant and the very kind of extraneous commentary that got Comey fired in 2017. https://t.co/Sc3cAMGakb

Weissmann: Entirely inappropriate that's not the role of the department of justice… It's gratuitous. It's what you're not supposed to do which is putting your thumb on the scale that could have political repercussions pic.twitter.com/xWWX6xh9bU

Yup. Republicans gonna be Republicans..@POTUS, succinctly: "By the way, this is a Republican counsel." https://t.co/grX2ccBbS9

Himes: I am puzzled why the special counsel chose to make statements that he had no business making. The president's attorneys obviously had a response to that. But again, you know, the president was cleared of wrongdoing, and he unlike Donald Trump was completely cooperative pic.twitter.com/M3nce5uKFW

I think we’re closing in on a consensus.Goldman: That's completely extraneous and unnecessary delivered by a Republican trying to make a political statement that has no place in this special counsel's report. pic.twitter.com/QI1rTU8boM

How remarkable that a special counsel who was both an attorney AND a neurologist could mistakenly write that Biden willfully took these documents before admitting a few hundred pages later that he had no evidence on the point. https://t.co/MPv8B9Eh61

Or as recently as today:Raskin: All we need from a special prosecutors is a decision… he didn't need to take the cheap shots, and you could take the same type of shots at Trump, who recently confused a woman that he sexually attacked and lied about with one of his wives. pic.twitter.com/kKaLld9eDF

Among other things.Trump: I think it was an insurrection caused by Nancy Pelosi. pic.twitter.com/I3AMOSymjG

And the answer to the question is: “Shit, no!”Blitzer: Does this raise alarms about whether Biden's fit to serve another term in office?

Raskin: Well, undoubtedly that's what Hur intended to do with the ridiculous cheap shots. pic.twitter.com/K1FsPC6k13
Not bad; but not what I was thinking.Raskin: It reminds me of the gender-based cheap shots they took at Clinton, and now all these age-based cheap shots at President Biden. You can turn them around use them on Donald Trump is fumbling his way through daily trying to figure out which criminal case he’s attending pic.twitter.com/dhFJsheWyM

Biden: I've seen the headlines since the report was released about my willful retention of documents. This is not only misleading, it's just plain wrong. The special counsel found the opposite. pic.twitter.com/UuaNqGMyje

Much better.Biden: There is even reference that I don't remember when my son died. 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. Let me tell you something…. pic.twitter.com/VDImISHWOA

Doocy: The special counsel said you were a well meaning elderly man
— Acyn (@Acyn) February 9, 2024
Biden: I’m well meaning and I’m an elderly man and I know what the hell I’m doing. I put this country back on its feet. I don’t need his recommendation pic.twitter.com/hkkAHkVUf7
Reporter: The American people have been watching and they have expressed concerns about your age.

Biden: That is your judgment. That is your judgment. pic.twitter.com/i4ykMOuEfk
Biden’s been at this a long time. I like our chances.Biden: I think special counsel should have been appointed, and the reason is because I did not want to be in a position that they looked at trump and weren't going to look at me. Just like they looked at the vice president. pic.twitter.com/nYKysuC4MI
