Hur was in hot water with White House before he released his report

Documents show President Joe Biden‘s lawyers were frustrated with special counsel Robert Hur‘s findings and the tone of his report over the president’s handling of classified documents ahead of its release to the public.

A series of letters between Biden’s legal counsel and Justice Department officials occurred the day before Hur’s report was released last week, according to the Washington Post. In one communication, Hur explained his decision not to prosecute Biden for his keeping of classified documents after he left office as vice president despite stating the practices “present serious risks to national security.”
