Ex-Special Counsel Robert Hur testified on Tuesday that he "did not exonerate" President Biden in his report detailing the investigation into mishandling of classified records, repeatedly shutting down Democratic lawmakers’ characterizations.
Hur, who resigned as special counsel after releasing his report which found Biden willfully retained classified records but did not bring charges against him, testified publicly Tuesday.
Democrats seized on the fact that Hur did not bring charges against the president, claiming he exonerated the president completely.
