Special Counsel Robert Hur, who earlier suggested not charging Joe Biden with federal crimes for keeping classified government documents as a “private” person, told Congress on Tuesday some of Biden’s answers on the issue simply were “not credible.”
The Daily Signal reported Hur testified before the House Judiciary Committee on his finding that Biden “willfully retained and disclosed classified materials” after his vice presidency.
But Hur recommended against charges because of Biden’s “diminished faculties.”
A Democrat asked Hur if there was reason to believe Biden lied during the investigation, to which Hur responded there were questions for which Biden’s answers were “not credible.”
Evidence shows Biden not only kept classified documents, but read from them to a ghostwriter working on a book, meaning Biden had a financial incentive to keep the government secrets.
Gaetz noted, “It’s a lie is what regular people would say, right?”
Hur also said Biden’s claim that the documents were “in filing cabinets that were locked or able to be locked” was “inconsistent” with the evidence.
