President Joe Biden’s Justice Department missed the congressional deadline to provide Special Counsel Robert Hur’s transcribed interview, where Hur described Biden as an elderly man with a poor memory.
Congress sought the transcript to assess Biden’s fitness for office.
The White House was undecided on releasing the tape and transcript, with media defending Biden’s memory and dismissing concerns as ageist or right-wing conspiracy theories.
🚨BREAKING🚨
We are giving the Justice Department until February 19 at 5p to produce the transcript of President Biden’s interview with Special Counsel Robert Hur and other documents included in the report that relate to our impeachment inquiry.
