Audio Of Biden’s Special Counsel Interview Is Out, And It’s Painful To Listen To

By Daily Wire. Audio of former special counsel Robert Hur’s interview with former President Joe Biden is out, showing the extent to which Biden struggled to recall simple facts.

The news outlet Axios obtained the audio of Hur’s interviews with Biden, which took place in October 2023. The recordings were taken over two three-hour interview sessions recorded on October 8 and 9.

In one audio clip, Biden struggles to recall the year his son Beau died. Beau died of brain cancer on May 30, 2015, at the age of 46. The audio shows that Biden could remember the month and day, but struggled to recall the year until he was prompted by members of the special counsel’s team.

Biden also gets the year wrong that President Donald Trump was elected to his first term. Biden confuses the year that Trump is elected, 2016, with the year that he enters office and Biden leaves the vice presidency, 2017. Biden is repeatedly prompted to clarify when he leaves office and Trump enters the White House.

As the clip continues, Biden backtracks, appears to repeat himself, and appears to misstate the year of Beau’s death again after being told the correct year. Biden struggles to spin more than a handful of words together at a time before he pauses again, appearing to be trying to recollect his thoughts. At several moments, Biden drops off midway through a sentence with a muttered, “anyway.” (Read more from “Audio Of Biden’s Special Counsel Interview Is Out, And It’s Painful To Listen To” HERE)

Portions of the Tapes Between Biden and Special Counsel Robert Hur Have Been Released. They’re Brutal.

By Townhall. The Democrats’ hell week over this matter will continue. President Trump gave Attorney General Pam Bondi the go-ahead to release the audio tapes of Special Counsel Robert Hur’s interview with Joe Biden, which captured the former president’s shoddy memory. The signs of mental decline were pervasive, but while we were called conspiracy theorists for saying so, the Democrat-media complex continued to press on with their lies about the president’s health. Axios obtained a portion of these tapes; one of the marquee moments of the Hur report was when he noted that Joe Biden had forgotten when Beau died.

It led to a press conference where the president vociferously pushed back on the report, even directing his anger at Hur for suggesting he’d forgotten when his son had passed. The problem: Biden lied constantly to the president, and this is no exception. We have proof that the then-president struggled to remember when Beau died of brain cancer. The Biden White House refused to release the tapes. The Biden Justice Department tried to deep-six it. It’s now for all to see and hear (via Axios):

🚨NEW — Partial audio of the Robert Hur interview with then-President Joe Biden has just been released.

It's BRUTAL.

He clearly had no idea what was going on — or when things had happened.

This was a scandal — The Democrats & the media covered it up. pic.twitter.com/d7m8co3M1w

100% exoneration of Hur. Every person around Biden KNEW Hur was correct and they attacked & impugned his integrity anyway, entirely due to politics. Go read their quotes at the time, then listen to the audio. The discrepancy PERMANENTLY impeaches their veracity & credibility.

Amid long, uncomfortable pauses, Joe Biden struggled to recall when his son died, when he left office as vice president, what year Donald Trump was elected or why he had classified documents he shouldn’t have had, according to audio Axios obtained of his October 2023 interviews with special counsel Robert Hur.

Why it matters: The newly released recordings of Biden having trouble recalling such details — while occasionally slurring words and muttering — shed light on why his White House refused to release the recordings last year, as questions mounted about his mental acuity.

The audio also appears to validate Hur’s assertion that jurors in a trial likely would have viewed Biden as “a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.”
