WASHINGTON — President Biden went ballistic on special counsel Robert Hur for allegedly asking about his son Beau’s death — but a new report says the question never came up and Biden himself raised the topic. The 81-year-old president was defending his cognitive abilities when he ripped Hur during a bellicose press conference Thursday night — but Biden’s memory appears to have failed him again. “There’s even a reference that I don’t remember when my son died. How in the hell dare he raise that,” Biden fumed in a statement to reporters before taking questions. “Frankly, when I was asked the question, I thought to myself it wasn’t any of their damn business.” “There’s even a reference that I don’t remember when my son died. How in the hell dare he raise that,” Biden fumed in a statement to reporters before taking questions. “Frankly, when I was asked the question, I thought to myself it wasn’t any of their damn business.” NBC News reported Wednesday that the president himself brought up his son’s 2015 death from brain cancer during five hours of questioning on Oct. 8-9. “It was the president, not Hur or his team, who first introduced Beau Biden’s death,” two sources familiar with the Biden interview told the outlet.

Joe doesn’t wait for a phony baloney opportunity to bring up Beau’s death.

If it doesn’t present itself, he makes one up.

The special counsel probably had to listen to hours of Biden stories about Beau, all made up of course.

So Biden either lied about the interview or he doesn’t recall it correctly either.

Joe holds up Beau and hides behind him whenever he feels attacked.

This surprises no one. Joe uses Beau’s death as a “sympathy shield”. Of course he would bring it up.

Biden resurrects Beau at the drop of a hat———as a political strategy, even going so far as to changing his voice into a desolate mourn (see the 2020 debate). But Biden then despicably lies about the death’s circumstances, and gives credence to allegations that he is posing, fudging the details for political gain.


The Hur incident is a new low for shameless Biden, everybody suspects Biden is using his son Beau’s death to fake a memory problem in order to evade more serious charges.

There’s only one other reason Biden would make the false claim about Hur “raising” the issue, as explained by Townhall managing editor Spencer Brown:

“So, Biden pretended to be indignant that the special counsel included a topic that Biden himself raised in his interview. Either that or he also conveniently “forgot” that he brought the subject of his son’s death up in the conversation.”

“Regardless, it’s terrible optics, and between that and Biden’s ill-tempered reactions to the death reference, it’s further proof that there is no low to which Team Biden will not stoop to drag him over the finish line one more time........even having Jill fund-raise on the subterfuge.”

” his son’s 2015 death from brain cancer “

He got brain cancer in IRAQ????? From a cancer laced bullet or IED?

Hunter must just LOVE how Joe idolizes his OTHER son, even though Hunter brings in all the cash.

It looks like the MSM is beginning to pick up this story. That must mean Biden is finished.

“That must mean Biden is finished”

If they start telling him to go back to using the big boy stairs on Air Force 1 you’ll know they are trying to get rid of him.

Beau’s death is his “go to excuse\deflection” whenever he gets cornered about something

So, this needs to be brought up at every opportunity. Look at all the smear campaigns used against DJTrump: “people” say you are racist, “they” claim you are sexist, etc.
So, let’s do the same.

“Some” say Beau was fragged while in Iraq. How do you respond?
“Some” say Beau’s cancer was caused by AIDs. Any response?

BeijingBiden’s incessant use of Beau has wiped away any sympathy. Use it against him. Show him the personal hatred he has instilled in ordinary Americans by his calling them terrorists.

“Beau’s death is his “go to excuse\deflection” whenever he gets cornered about something”

And it HAS FINALLY backfired.

I suspect somehow he will use this as an excuse NOT to go to East Palestine Ohio.

I know, that’s what I say. There must have been video taken of the interview or at least a stenographer writing it down. Should be easy to prove Biden is living up to the reports conclusion.

Hey Slow Joe! For 400 points, where and when did your son die? You know, the one who isn’t an indicted crackhead.
