You didn’t see the scam? You didn’t see what was going on?
Listen, if you didn’t know you were being scammed you’re too fuckin’ dumb to keep this job. If you did know, you were in on it:
2. While Hur said that Biden had a "poor memory" in his report, during the interview, he remarked that Biden had a "photographic understanding and… recall" of the layout and contents of his lake house in Wilmington, Delaware. pic.twitter.com/sDSRgrSOk8— Judd Legum (@JuddLegum) March 14, 2024
4. The "photographic understanding and… recall" comment was referenced once on the @washingtonpost website in a story syndicated from the AP. But that story does not make it clear that Hur made the comment. "Biden gave Hur a 'photographic' overview of his home," the AP wrote.— Judd Legum (@JuddLegum) March 14, 2024
6. At one point in the transcript, one of the prosecutors working with Hur asked Biden if he remembered the purpose of an appointment on his calendar from 8:30 to 9 AM on February 16, 2017. Biden responds that it was a physical therapy appointment for his shoulder.

We had an EMAILs-level media freakout over a Federalist Society operative’s assertions that Biden’s memory is dangerously failing, based on an interview in which he could recall details of obscure appointments he had in 2017! And of course the evidence showing that Hur was guilty of egregious misconduct is getting far less coverage.
Look, reasonable people can disagree about how much coverage of Biden’s age is warranted. But either it’s important or it isn’t. If it’s important when a hack Republican lawyer suggests that it’s a huge issue and not when transcripts are released showing that he was lying, you’re just doing press releases for Donald Trump. And you can’t say you haven’t seen this play out many times before. You’re pissing me off; now you’re insulting my intelligence.
