WASHINGTON — President Biden went ballistic on special counsel Robert Hur for allegedly asking about his son Beau’s death — but a new report said the question never came up during questioning.
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 Thursday night 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.”
Hur’s finding said Biden’s cognitive decline is so perceptible that no jury would convict him of mishandling classified documents stashed in his Delaware home and at a DC office after his vice presidency.
Biden claimed Hur’s team asked him when Beau died during five hours of questioning on Oct. 8-9.
However, NBC News reported Wednesday that the president himself brought up his son’s 2015 death from brain cancer.
“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.
