"Special Counsel's Testimony on Biden Report Sparks Controversy"

U.S. prosecutor Robert Hur stated that his investigation into President Joe Biden's handling of classified documents did not exonerate the president, despite declining to charge him. Hur faced questioning from the Republican-led House Judiciary Committee and defended his discussion of Biden's memory, stating it was relevant to whether a crime was committed. The investigation uncovered evidence that Biden knowingly kept secret documents after leaving the vice presidency, but Hur emphasized that politics played no part in his report. The White House pushed back on Hur's remarks, stating that the case is closed, while some Democrats argued that his discussion of Biden's memory was unnecessary and inappropriate.
