'He always brings it up': Biden slammed for blasting special counsel for asking about son Beau’s death

WASHINGTON, DC: Special Counsel Robert Hur reportedly questioned Joe Biden about his son Beau's death, which infuriated the President. However, a new report clarifies that Biden brought up the subject.

The president criticized Hur during a heated press conference on Thursday night, February 8, 2024, while defending his intelligence. "There’s even a reference that I don’t remember when my son died. How in the hell dare he raise that," Biden angrily addressed reporters in a statement before accepting questions.

“Frankly, when I was asked the question, I thought to myself it wasn’t any of their damn business,” President Biden said in the statement.

According to Hur's assessment of Biden's purported mishandling of sensitive information, the president's cognitive loss is so obvious that a jury would not find him guilty of concealing documents from his time at the Senate and as the former vice president in his Delaware home and office in Washington, DC.

During five hours of questioning on October 8–9, the president himself brought up his son's 2015 death from brain cancer, according to an NBC News report published on Wednesday.

Two people familiar with the Biden interview told the media outlet, "It was the president, not Hur or his team, who first introduced Beau Biden's death."

Robert Hur's report on Joe Biden

The report states, “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 ghostwriter was helping him write a memoir about losing Beau to brain cancer in 2015.”

Biden appeared confused on several occasions, according to Hur's almost 400-page report, and he shouldn't be charged with a crime in part because he would probably portray himself to a jury as a "sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory." 

Biden “did not remember when he was vice president, forgetting on the first day of the interview when his term ended (‘if it was 2013 — when did I stop being Vice President?’), and forgetting on the second day of the interview when his term began (‘in 2009, am I still Vice President?’),” the report added.

“He did not remember, even within several years, when his son Beau died [in May 2015]. And his memory appeared hazy when describing the Afghanistan debate that was once so important to him. Among other things, he mistakenly said he ‘had a real difference’ of opinion with General Karl Eikenberry, when, in fact, Eikenberry was an ally whom Mr. Biden cited approvingly in his Thanksgiving [2009] memo to President Obama,” it further read. 

Internet slams Joe Biden for criticizing Special Counsel Robert Hur

Several internet users brutally slammed the President on social media platform X for blasting Special Counsel Robert Hur. One person wrote, "Liars gonna lie!" while another added, "LOL, of course. They probably coached Joe to say that. He has no memory of his conversation with Hur."

Another person added, "Biden literally brings up his son’s death all the time, so why is it out of bounds for anyone to ask about it? He blew his top because he was asked but he has known for outburst of anger."

One user also wrote, "He ALWAYS brings it up. I understand the heartbreak and emotions involved with losing a child…I lost my son back in 1997. But this clown is a liability. This country is better without him or any of his puppet masters."
