Congressional Democrats are being forced to reckon with revived concerns about President Joe Biden’s age and acuity after being accused of severe memory lapses in special counsel Robert Hur’s report on his handling of classified materials. 

Hur’s report included examples of the president’s memory lapses during his interview with investigators, which were featured while explaining the rationale for not prosecuting Biden. The report stated that the president could not remember, “even within several years,” when his son Beau Biden died, among other important dates.
