I Have One Last Thing To Say About Hur's Report [View all]

Robert Hur wrote in his report that President Biden couldn't even remember when his son died.

What a horrible, despicable thing to say. Everyfuckingbody should be condemning Hur for putting that lie in his report.

If Merrick Garland read that line in Hur's report and allowed it to be made public, then Garland is complicit.

No President Biden can't fire Garland, it is way too late, besides, I'm not sure that incompetence is legal grounds for firing someone.

I'm going grocery shopping, maybe I will buy a chunk of big fat bologna.

Same. Furthermore, as the years pass, I'm not as obsessed with the dates anymore. Arazi Feb 2024 #20

Agreed. I'm almost 20 years younger than Biden and my mom passed in 2022. yardwork Feb 2024 #27

Wonder if you'll feel the same way in October Doc Sportello Feb 2024 #35

Yup, will still feel it is a lot political, as I do now. republianmushroom Feb 2024 #37

You wrote that it was a "little" political Doc Sportello Feb 2024 #39

Did you read " no more than a little "political", myself. But than that is just me. republianmushroom Feb 2024 #42

Yes and it comes across the same Doc Sportello Feb 2024 #43

If so, than I can't help you. republianmushroom Feb 2024 #44

See intrepidity's reply Doc Sportello Feb 2024 #77

Not a thing. Hur was supposed to be checking the documents True Blue American Feb 2024 #34

That just shows the type of BS questioning that Biden was up against with this clown Hur. hadEnuf Feb 2024 #78

That was disgraceful. As was so much of Hur's report. For the record, I have lost my mother, my father and my sister. Nanjeanne Feb 2024 #52

Because laughing at someone's grief and associated memory loss is so funny, right? hlthe2b Feb 2024 #93

I don't see anyone laughing at grief (perhaps I overlooked it). Instead, I see a bunch of dramatic hand-wringing * Oopsie Daisy Feb 2024 #94
