Joe Biden is once again caught up in another scandal. This time, it’s about lying over a key detail in a documents probe. I mean, come on Joe, can’t you keep your stories straight?
According to the Daily Wire, transcripts released recently show that Biden fibbed during his testimony with special counsel Robert Hur. And oh boy, was it a whopper! Hur’s report in February concluded that Biden had willfully retained classified documents. But, apparently, no criminal charges were recommended because Biden was just an ‘old man with a faulty memory’.
Now, here’s where it gets interesting. One key detail in the report was that Biden supposedly could not recall the year his son Beau died. Biden claimed that it was Hur who brought up the heartbreaking topic, and he was taken aback by it. He even said, “How in the hell dare he raise that? It wasn’t any of their damn business.”
But hold on a minute! Turns out, it was actually Biden himself who brought up his son. The transcripts, obtained by ABC, show Biden’s confusion when asked about what he was doing after Trump took office. He then asked, “What month did Beau die?” Oops!

But the fun doesn’t stop there. Elsewhere in the transcripts, Biden said “I’m a young man, so it’s not a problem,” when asked to discuss previous events as accurately as possible. Young man, really Joe? I mean, we all have our delusions, but this one takes the cake!
And let’s not forget his comment about hoping investigators hadn’t found “any risqué pictures of my wife in a bathing suit,” adding, “She’s beautiful.” Smooth, Joe, real smooth.
In all seriousness, though, Biden did admit that he didn’t mean to keep any classified documents. But, he conveniently blamed his staff for packing his belongings from the White House. Interesting how it’s always someone else’s fault, isn’t it?
The transcripts also revealed Biden talking about moving boxes full of classified documents in his garage to park his car. He claimed he didn’t know what was in the boxes. I mean, who doesn’t have boxes of classified documents lying around in their garage, right?

It seems like Biden’s memory is as reliable as a chocolate teapot. Whether it’s forgetting key details or conveniently blaming others, our dear President sure knows how to play the game. And folks, it’s one heck of a show!
