WASHINGTON — President Biden “willfully retained and disclosed classified materials,” special counsel Robert Hur found in a bombshell report released Thursday — though Hur recommended against criminal charges, in part because a jury might view Biden as an “elderly man with a poor memory.”
Biden, 81, flouted legal restrictions on keeping sensitive documents throughout his 36 years in the Senate and eight years as vice president — stashing them in cardboard boxes in his garage in Wilmington, Del., and other locations, the 388-page report said, with photos showing Biden’s storage practices.
Investigators even uncovered a recording of Biden confiding in his ghostwriter Mark Zwonitzer in April 2017, three months after leaving the vice presidency, that he still had official records because “I didn’t want to turn them in” — sounding similar to former President Donald Trump, who faces 40 criminal charges and up to 450 years in prison for resisting handing over documents after leaving the White House in 2021.
Zwonitzer also told Hur’s investigators that he deleted some audio files of Biden after the special counsel investigation began — and was aware of the probe when he did so.
“I’m not going to say how much of the percentage it was of my motivation,” the writer said, according to the report.
‘Elderly man with a poor memory’ Material mishandled by Biden involved the nation’s most guarded secrets, the report said, with authorities finding “information in [recovered] notebooks [that] remains classified up to the Top Secret level and includes Sensitive Compartmented Information, including from compartments used to protect information concerning human intelligence sources.”
But, perhaps most damaging for the president, Hur — a former Maryland US attorney — suggested that jurors would not hold Biden liable for his actions on account of his perceived mental decline, even though he is

Yes, if you won’t go, voluntarily, Harris needs to call the 25th amendments in the cabinet.
The difference is that Trump is not senile and they hate him while Biden is senile and they have to protect the party.
He is in the memory wing of the White House finger painting and playing handball with his own crap.
Exactly. Biden is so out of it that he probably didn’t take hints about resigning honorably for “health reasons” so they had to blast him out if there to clear the way for Michelle or Newsom. Or Michelle and Newsom.
You are right
this, “Senility is not an excuse for jeopardizing the lives of every living American. This man must be removed NOW!
Abc just led with it.
Did they say how the special counsel concluded that Biden is a demented idiot who didn’t remember when he was vp
He couldn’t remember when his Son died.
Biden’s attempt to dunk on this report was so tone deaf.
Biden’s rebuttal of the report (and his cognitive decline) begins on page 384. It’s a hoot.
#BelieveHur
So, Joe is an “unindicted co-conspirator” ...
The Bozo is waving the report around like he didn’t do anything wrong.
That’s the same kind of HS they used when they decided not to prosecute Hillary for all the secret and higher stuff on her bathroom server. Put me on either jury and Biden/Hillary goes away for the max allowable under the law.

He should immediately resign.
unREAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW”!!!
BIDEN TO ADDRESS NATION AT 7:45 TONIGHT!
By painting Biden as an “elderly man with poor memory,” it appears that Hur is working hand in glove with those plotting to replace Biden at some point with another candidate (Newsome? Big Mike?).
Ding, ding, ding, we have our thread winner. Johnny, tell us what great prizes they win.
Once again a lying Democrat gets away with breaking the law.
