WASHINGTON, DC – Vice President Kamala Harris delivered a nonsense defense of President Joe Biden against recent scrutiny over his mental fitness by special counsel Robert Hur. During a press conference near the White House, Harris accused Hur of lacking “integrity” and being “politically motivated.”
The report, which focused on Biden’s handling of classified records, drew sharp criticism from Harris. She deemed Hur’s comments as “gratuitous, inaccurate, and inappropriate” and expressed her support for the president, whom she commended for his engagement during a critical incident on October 7.
Addressing the allegations of confusion during interviews on October 8 and 9, Harris vehemently refuted them, asserting that Biden was actively involved, coordinating responses, and seeking crucial information from various leaders. She emphasized the president’s dedication to national security and cooperation with allies during the aftermath of the October 7 situation.
Harris concluded her response with a critique of Hur, claiming that the report’s characterization of the president’s demeanor was factually incorrect, politically motivated, and lacked the expected level of integrity.
Hur’s report, acknowledging Biden’s possession of classified documents without recommending criminal charges, portrayed Biden as sympathetic with a poor memory. Harris did not directly address the report’s claim that the Hamas attack influenced Biden’s recollection.
President Biden, in a separate press conference, criticized Hur’s characterization, further fueling debates about his mental acuity. Recent gaffes, including mistaking the president of Egypt for the leader of Mexico, have intensified scrutiny over Biden’s cognitive abilities. The controversy surrounding the report continues to raise questions about the president’s mental state.
