Vice President Kamala Harris pushed back on the special counsel report that cleared her boss of classified documents charges but severely questioned his mental competency.
Harris called special counsel Robert Hur’s report a “politically motivated” document that “could not be more wrong on the facts.”
“What I saw that report last night, I believe is, as a former prosecutor, the comments that were made by that prosecutor were gratuitous, inaccurate, and inappropriate,” she said.
Harris, a former prosecutor, said of Hur: “We should expect that there would be a higher level of integrity than what we saw.”
Hur wrote that a jury would perceive Biden as a “well-meaning elderly man with a poor memory” who could not remember what year his son died. Some Republicans have reacted to the document by calling for Biden’s removal via the 25th Amendment, while Democrats have largely attacked the report and its author, a former President Donald Trump appointee.

Harris did both, saying Biden was “in front of and top of it all” during the days of his interviews for the investigation, which came in the wake of the Oct. 7 Hamas terrorist attacks in Israel.
“He was in front of it all,” she said, “coordinating and directing leaders who are in charge of America’s national security, not to mention our allies around the globe for days and, up until now, months. So, the way that the president’s demeanor in that report was characterized could not be more wrong.”
