On Thursday evening, President Biden gave an emotional and angry response to a report issued by special counsel Robert K. Hur. While the report found that criminal charges were not merited for Biden’s handling of classified documents, it detailed moments when Biden appeared hazy on specific critical dates and years during his interviews with Hur, a Republican appointed by Attorney General Merrick Garland as special counsel.

One line from Hur’s report suggested that Biden did not recall the year in which his son Beau had passed away. Beau Biden died of cancer in 2015, when his father was vice president. The president said he remembers his son’s death every day. 

Biden also highlighted a separate investigation into former president Donald Trump’s own handling of classified documents, and the differences between them. 

The president, who is 81, has been fighting off voters’ concerns about his age as he prepares to seek reelection – likely against Trump.
