Democrats seek to move on from Robert Hur, but GOP sees opening with Biden testimony

House Democrats believe special counsel Robert Hur’s testimony brought House Republicans’ agenda to a “dead end” on Tuesday despite Hur’s report calling President Joe Biden an “elderly man with a poor memory.”

Hur testified for hours before the House Judiciary Committee on Tuesday on his investigation into Biden’s mishandling of classified documents. Republicans sought to use Hur’s comments about Biden’s memory loss to their advantage, while Democrats focused on the fact that Hur did not bring any criminal charges against the president.
