On Friday night, I felt the greatest betrayal possible as an American after I listened to the Biden-Hur Special Counsel interview recording. This recording was of the 2023 interview between Joe Biden and Special Counsel Robert Hur. For almost two years after this interview, the Biden DOJ had refused to publicize the voice recording of the Hur interview. It is now clear why they stonewalled.
Shockingly, Biden and other Democrats had attacked Special Counsel Hur after Hur mentioned Biden’s memory lapses as a reason not to prosecute. Hur found that Joe Biden had violated the law by his mishandling of classified information, but would “Likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview, as an…….. elderly man with a poor memory.” (U.S. Dept. of Justice)
Listening to the tapes myself, it was clear that Hur’s report drastically understated Biden’s lack of mental acuity. Those around Biden, including Jill Biden, VP Harris, Administration staff, senior Democrats and media allies were involved in a coverup of historic proportions.
It’s important to note that during the Hur interview Joe Biden brought up his son Beau’s death, not Robert Hur. This is important due to the many lies and how this played one part of the coverup by the Biden Administration. Hur wrote in his report “that Biden did not remember, even within several years, when his son Beau died." This was a factual, as during that interview we can now hear, Joe Biden talked about the period of 2017 and 2018 (when Joe left his position as VP with classified information) being when his son was dying.
An Aide corrected Joe, stating that Beau died in May 2015. Joe acknowledged the 2015 date, before claiming Trump won his first election in November 2017 (versus Nov 2016). Joe was corrected again and again for these lapses. After the Hur report was published, Joe lied egregiously about what had happened during the interview to cover up his incompetence. Joe shouted during an impromptu press conference: “How in the hell dare he (Hur) raise that? Frankly, when I was asked the question, I thought to myself, it wasn’t any of their damn business.” (NBC News, Feb. 24, 2024)
Mainstream media fell in line with making Robert Hur out to be a monster. Administration staff who knew the truth kept quiet. Joe Biden may have brought up Beau’s death during the 2017-18 time period as a potential way to mitigate his mishandling classified information, but the many other mental lapses remain.
Joe Biden’s mental deficits were clear to at least half the nation from ever before he took office in 2020. During Biden’s 2020 general election campaign, for example, Laura Trump broached the subject of Joe’s clear mental decline with Jake Tapper during an interview. Laura told Tapper “I think what we see onstage with Joe Biden, Jake, is very clearly a cognitive decline. That’s what I’m referring to. It makes me uncomfortable.”
Tapper responded with elitist eye-rolling, acting as though Laura was a nut and he was superior: “I would think that somebody in the family would be more sensitive to people who do not have medical licenses diagnosing politicians from afar…... You don’t have any standing.” Laura responded “I’m saying Joe Biden is struggling at times onstage, and it’s concerning to a lot of people that this could be the leader of the free world, that is all I’m saying. I genuinely feel sorry for Joe Biden.” Tapper eye-rolled again in a condescending manner, saying “I’m sure [your comments] were from a place of concern. We all believe that” (Washington Examiner, May 16, 2025)
This was not the only such exchange between conservatives and the mainstream media about Joe’s decline. Democrats and media smugly ridiculed those trying to sound the alarm about Joe Biden’s mental incompetency. As Joe progressively became worse, the video evidence was impossible to ignore, and this included videos pooled for all reporters of Joe’s confused behavior.
The Democrats and media allies refused to acknowledge the obvious but went into full gaslighting mode by calling the videos “cheap fakes” and accused Republicans of “misinformation”. (Washington Post, June 11, 2024)
According to senior members of the administration and media, Joe was still sharp as a tack and conservatives were just nuts.
The June 27, 2024 debate was the mental disaster for Joe Biden with the entire nation watching. The Liberal half of the nation, which had been completely misled by media and Democrats, was forced to deal with what the conservative half had been warning about for years. The Democrat response was to throw Biden under the bus and pretend they (and media allies) had no idea about the problem until June 27. A complete lie. Now, media figures like Jake Tapper are blaming the Biden administration for the coverup, and the Democrats are in full finger-pointing mode.
The Democrats and mainstream media covered up a mentally incompetent President while America became disgraced in Afghanistan and faced nuclear war with Russia. The 2023 Hur tape makes this as clear to America as the June 27, 2024 debate. It’s time for accountability, as our nation was put at more serious risk than any of us could have imagined. Those who knew and yet despicably attacked those trying to warn America must now answer to the American people and to God for the worst dereliction of duty in history.
